I thought this was on the extreme side. So I guess people can relate to this...

I only find myself relating to the social anxiety issue.

It's not as funny as it is the good kind of cringey.

I don't find it cringy or sad or anything at all. At some points I can just nod in acknowledgement being able to relate.

The funny parts were the comedy parts. Comedy is laughable right?

It's more of a being able to empathize with Tomoko thing rather than being outright in your face funny. The clever references the show makes along with how MC handles the awkward situations (or rather isn't able to handle) make it funny.
Something witty that makes you think I'm funny

It's funny because of Tomoko's weird schemes to make herself more popular, which always seem to fail, and her cynicism, she criticizes people in her head, but most people are actually nice to her. Her thoughts are just so cynical and maybe irrational, she's just so paranoid and shy, but that adds to the comic effect.

She´s a caricature of a person that´s socially awkward, combines too many characteristics too actually exist in reallife and exxagerated to the point where none of what happens to her can be taken seriously.

The people who relate to her should aks themselves. Did you relate to everything what shid did and happened to her? Or only the few cherrypicked moments.

Well being able to relate to some of her thoughts/reactions, and having it represented in its full-blown cringe form makes me laugh at how cute/awkward it is.

I thought it was a good balance, I cried and laughed. :']

Because dangit, you just want her to win so badly. If nothing else, the idea behind her is so unique and original. A great majority of the anime out there are about characters who become flawless young heroes. There's nothing wrong with that, but Kuroki is so much more of an authentic and relatable character that of course a lot of what she goes through would make you both cringe and laugh. A lot of the humor of this show comes from the viewers ability to relate and empathize with her, and the desire to keep cheering her on.

Having taken 3 years in order to make friends at the faculty I'm attending (literally), I think I find it funny precisely because I relate to Kuroki. No one wants to be the bottom of the barrel. Even if this girl doesn't exist, you can watch this show and be like "at least I'm not her." Sounds pathetic, but what's the alternative? Suffering alone?

That doesn't mean I don't have sympathy for her. I also want her to win, because after all, I relate to her xD
