Description
Socially anxious high school student Shoko Komi’s greatest dream is to make some friends, but everyone at school mistakes her crippling social anxiety for cool reserve! With the whole student body keeping their distance and Komi unable to utter a single word, friendship might be forever beyond her reach.
Timid Tadano is a total wallflower, and that’s just the way he likes it. But all that changes when he finds himself alone in a classroom on the first day of high school with the legendary Komi. He quickly realizes she isn’t aloof—she’s just super awkward. Now he’s made it his mission to help her on her quest to make 100 friends!

Thanks so much to Netgalley for providing an e-arc for me.
This book has been kind of a meme in the anime community so i was intrigued to find out that it was available on Netgalley. I simply really just enjoyed it. No further comments.

First impression, I thought I’m not going to like this because this might be one of those outrageously way out there manga or possibly perverted. Wow 😳 was I wrong. I loved the story, the characters are very funny and are relatable, and the illustrations are cute.
Komi Can’t Communicate is a cute slice-of-life manga. The main characters Komi and Tadano struggles with puberty and fitting-in combined with funny awkward situations. I can’t wait to read their adventure and how they would navigate their relationship and gain more friends.

Okay, this was just way too cute. I've heard so many good things about it, and while it's generally difficult to review manga for most people this is one I'm going to recommend to pretty much everyone looking for something just to relax with. It's adorable, and really wholesome and relatable in ways that you don't expect. I'm definitely gonna be on the hunt for more volumes of this, this one's amazing.
