Can you show a picture of the specific time/page/whatever? I usually only wear one of my hearing aids btw, even though my hearing is 60% in both. Just the way I like to hear things.

When somebody annoying is talking you can just turn your head to the left and shut then up.

It's that time when Ueno shows out for the first time after 5 years they got separated , then at the road Ueno rushed to Nishimiya and got her hearing aid and said "why only one?" and threw it at Shouya. Then Shouya returned the hearing aid properly to Shouko and apologizing to her.

In movie this also happened but

I was going to wait to finish the manga, but doesn't that sequence of events usually call for a reason?

It's not uncommon IRL; maybe only that ear has any capability for hearing.

There's no indication in manga
why shouko wearing one hearing aid... just like I said on my previous post on spoiler tag. I think I should look again on that arc...

EDIT: ok it happened on chapter 21, Ueno is thinking why shouko wear only 1 hearing aid. I don't know but does Shouko lose her hearing completely on other ear?

I never found out why in the manga but the movie shows more seriously that her other ear is scarred from the time shouya tore out her aid and she started bleeding. Showing he broke her other ear or something

I'm surprised that no one knows the answer, considering how obvious it felt. Near the middle of the movie, there was a scene with Shouko and he grandmother talking with a doctor. After that scene, we see Shouko crying with one hearing aid taken off. This basically means that Shouko lost hearing capabilities completely on one ear. That's why she doesn't use a hearing aid on that ear anymore.

^ which also prompted her to gather all the courage to confess to Shouya because she hoped to receive a normal response like any other normal girl before she lost her hearing ability completely.

In the movie, there is a short scene where her hearing is tested at an audiometrist's office. After that, she only has one hearing aid so it is implied that she has gone completely deaf in that ear.

She used to wear two, but at least in the manga, I think she only wears one due to Shoya back in elementary school. There was a scene where he pulled out one or both the hearing aids and right side started bleeding.

Oh, that's a somber moment. The same thing happened to a friend of mine. He started losing his hearing after a head injury when he was in a car accident. For a long time, we visited a audiologist, I accompanied him so he wouldn't be alone. Unfortunately, his hearing continued to decline despite the hearing aids. Recently the doctor said that he had to have an operation because one ear could barely hear anything. He often associates himself with Shouko because that's his favorite anime, no matter how ironic it sounds. But I'm not giving up hope that surgery will help him.

In movie this also happened but

Her hearing was deciniling throughout the story and she became completly deaf in one ear at that time.
