This episode was so cute that everyone seemed like friends instead of competitors for Komi-san's attention XD I'd like seeing more of this friendly dynamic :3

Also, shout-out to Najimi for keeping the vibes up when Komi told everyone to go play, and I think Agari's cuteness is not spoken about enough.

Great episode! Pool episode! Komi was going to go in her school swimsuit but Yamai stopped her right in her tracks and they want to get another swimsuit xD. Everyone lost the underwater breath holding contest because they looked at Komi lol. Them Higurashi chirping noises at the pool gives me back some bad memories of a certain VN...
Komi wants to go to the library and her dad takes her. They are both very alike and don't talk much lol. Was nice to see them together though.

Looking forward to the next episode!

Ah, the mandatory swimsuit episode. Najimi really grab my attention on those first part. How on earth Najimi changed every outfit at every possible moments? While Komi just being a Komi. Not breathing under the water must be a difficult things to do when around the Goddess. Poor the innocent floor pool, tho, became a victim of Komi's negligence. As always, Tadano as an ordinary guy got the most benefit, and ofc acquired a new fetish! Ah, Komi's father. Its about time. The communication between them surely such a rough things to do. But, glad both had a 'way' to solved things out. No Yamai stalking when Komi went to the library? That's absurd. She must had some fight with Shinobino. Don't know with the reason, tho. Then, as always, Tadano as the most ordinary guy, got the most benefit sceneries of Komi. Yamai must be jelly....

Tadano forgot to return the book twice because he keeps getting distracted by Komi-san. I found that funny and I wonder when he'll ever return it. The pool episode was pretty good I like how Komi-san had a lot of fun and how Tadano cheered her up when she couldn't play with everyone.

Komi-san in swimsuit! Definitely 100 million points!

Komi-san's father too is a socially awkward type XD
Their moment in the cafe was so wholesome.

Komi-san wearing that top with jeans is so pretty.

Komi-san enjoying her alone time was so adorable but poor Tadano, must've gotten a trashing from his mom XD

Yamai gets points for her Komi swimsuit choice......but she's still so far in the negatives, so it barely makes a difference.

Really wholesome-filled episode (although Tadano's fetish unlock was unexpected...but I don't blame him).

Trip to the shaved ice was a definite highlight, even though the pool sequence set the bar quite high. Curious as to when we'll get some proper introductions to the rest of the gang Yamai brought with her.


Damn Agari was seriously packing O_O

Anyways this was a pretty good episode.

The whole gang had sure some fun on the pool, too bad Komi got slightly injured but she still had a good time with everyone, it's also fun to see how she acts with her father when BOTH have a communication problem xD Komi playing in the kid's park was great too see xD

During all the pool scene, i was wondering who the tall gray haired girl who didn't even get introduced at first was lol.
Komi is so adorable no matters the situation. Yamai is a serious yandere stalker but well it's in a comic angle.
she is that armour girl from trailer.

A cool transition from general fun with friends in the pool to peaceful and cheerful loneliness from Shouko. Now there is definitely a lot more light and opportunity in her life since she started leaving home on summer vacation. Father Komi was a very nice fit into the episode, it turns out that over time you can subdue the fear of communication (I mean it must be hard to organize family life and stuff without saying a word) although even his own daughter, who is all like a dad, can play a trick on this.

So I guess this is the Komi-san version of beach episode?
That Tadano guy.. He's so freaking adorable AND super nice to Komi. Damn this show, it's so wholesome, it makes my heart melt.

Not Komi and her dad being perfect copies of each other!!!!!

I don't know if it's just me, but that Agari girl looks like she could be a character of some hentai.

Yami-san's personality is really starting to grate on me. Her bringing a cast of background characters is also annoying.
I'm not a lolicon, you're just projecting your tendency to lewd 2D characters.

Ahh, a classic waterpark ep... What a vibrant segment it was, it's just Tadano, Komi, Agari and Najimi having fun together with the simp-squad tagging along. What is usually a fanservice ep to me became more of a sweet, charming ep. Nothing but joy upon seeing the cast getting along together.

Next up is the most wholesome moment in the ep, Komi and Komi's father interacting with each other is as close as it is to the manga. Aside from a single spoken sentence, they pretty much didn't talk, lol. In that sense, Komi is just like her father. However, no words emit a greater brilliance compared to a kind, caring action a father does to his daughter, his headpat for Komi is a sign of love, ah the mellow sensation in my heart is one I wish to feel all day long. What a lovely family, can't wait until Shosuke (Komi's brother) is featured as the main focus of the ep.

I thought it was going to be a normal pool not a water park that was more interesting 10/10/10. Yamai isn’t all crazy then at least she stopped her wearing her schools gear. Nice to see everyone acting as friends instead of fighting for Komis attention like normal even though they still did that a bit. The meal with her father was my favourite part guess that’s where she gets her social problems from nice to see they can still communicate. Tadano being a bit of a creep but I guess he didn’t want her to feel awkward.

Pool episode, I'm glad that Yamai picked a good swimsuit for Komi, for once I'll give her that. Tadano stopping Najimi from entering the female section is funny, your ass is on the way to the 3rd area. Also umm...Tadano x Komi moments, it never goes wrong...

The scene with her father in the resto is nice, so that's how she got her silent mode on. It's cool that you don't need a lot of noise to prove your point (wait is that a---).

And the scene where Komi is just happily playing around in the library and in the playground makes for some nice things to see, I agree with you Tadano, we both are some losers and airhead procrastinators.

Really don't see what's so comedic about Yamai's yandere personality. Girl is literally stalking outside of Komi's home for days and popping up at every given opportunity. Just creepy and weird asf.

I do have to say, I'm not a fan of Yamai.


she's the only fan of herself. Pretty all you want but obnoxious for a lack of harder words. F... her. Still, even her can't bring down this show.

Now i'm not updated with the manga any more for now but the beach/pool/water park episode was granted, and still very enjoyable (yes, i have nostalgia of water parks) regardless lady yandere from before. The rest of the episode wasn't as much as great even if it was nice to see her father.

That face Ren made when seeing Komi's school suit. Caught me way off guard lol.

I'm surprised how much they managed to cram in after the pool day. The coffee shop, library, baby, and park scenes.

The father-daughter scene was cute but kind of hard to watch. The #1 critique this show seems to get is the lack of realism. I understand that anime generally AREN'T realistic to begin with, but I'd agree even this is over the top -- the fact that Komi can't even communicate with her parents. It's kind of difficult to see it as just a quirky family dynamic -- like, being too scared to speak to your mother and father is kind of concerning. 😅 Komi's out here fighting for her life and her parents can't do much to help her out. I'm starting to think, isn't there some kind of social therapy offered over in Japan for cases like this? Komi's got a deep-seated psychological issue that spans beyond being shy or introverted. I'm not complaining or ranting, though. Just a "shower thought" per se. That IRL, the Komi situation would be pretty crippling to the sufferer. There are probably actually people out there with crippling social anxiety, but stuff like this paints them in a positive light (rather than ridiculing them) and gives some representation or whatever. Cool cool kewl.

Solid little episode. Didn't really have much else to say about the beach stuff (definitely seeing how Yamai will forcibly insert herself everywhere with Komi, obviously a buildup for something later), but I really did like the stuff after that a lot more. Komi and her dad definitely seem to be on the same page, as an kindred introverts, they get along well. At least managed to SAY what he wanted to in the end!

I like that Tadano looked over her, albeit unintentionally, the entire time too. He's proud of her.


Man, playing on playground toys when you're a lot older than the target demographic, and being too shy to go up to the counter, haha, both experiences I can relate to!

Life can be cruel and unfair. At worst it can traumatize and cripple you. The desire for wanting things to return to the way they were can cost everything and changes nothing. The best way is to keep moving forward, struggle on.
Anger can be powerful but can only get you so far. Let people into your life even if some of them leave you in time.

Fight. Like. Hell. For everything and everyone you love. Always.

The scene with Komi and her Dad was priceless.
The baby part and Tadano forgetting about the books was hilarious, and Komi at the playground was adorable.
And Not unique to this episode, but Komi's shaking is the cutest thing I have seen in anime.
