THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
It was then, the Madonna and the ordinary man met, in animated form.

Was it worth it? Was it worth all that waiting? Yes. Yes, it was.

Great episode, funny as I would have expected, and something I think I can look forward to in this season lol.

As always for Cherry blossom and new semester, scenery was so beautiful. However, the early minutes always belong to Neko. Okay this is first time Tadano Saw Komi-san, uwaaa sugoi bijinda! Back again with cowardly Tadano, tension rise up just by looking at a girl. It's not that I hate Tadano it's just that I really really hate Tadano, forget about it. They are in the same class and the seat, u know... Glancing and glancing, it happened for 5 minutes duration and that was with.


It's written on the chalkboard that Komi-san isn't good at communication to other people, that's why she wrote it on the chalkboard, is this similar to Senryuu Shoujo? Ma, The problem about Komi can be found in the title, lol... So yeah, forget about it. Tadano asked about breakfast, onaka hettan desu ka? It's written on the chalkboard that Komi-san didn't bring Bento and yeah... They were just talking about how to talk to other people, and it went on for quite a while and was pretty boring for me. Komi-san just can't find the right topic, that chalk sound keeps going and gommennasai, bye end.... They also continue to chat with the chalkboard until this episode ends, end owatta.

For OP wow that was so chibbi 3/10 for Op.

Komi is very beautiful, she is very popular because of her beauty.
Tadano was under a lot of pressure because he was sitting next to Komi, lmao.

Ngl, When Komi is nervous she is so cute.
Damn, that's a lot of writing, Komi really wants to have friends, but the problem is that she has a hard communicating with other people. That OST tho! I really like it.

She really wants to have 100 friends, and she needs 99 more friends. Searching for 99 more friends begins!

The first episode was great!

Welcome to one of the most anticipated anime adaptations of all time. Never had I thought I would see the day when Komi San will get animated. The meme will finally be over. It's a great time to be alive as an anime fan and an even greater time if you're a fan of Komi San and the manga in general like me. Let's rejoice... boys.

Also, the fact that Komi-san has been voiced by none other than Koga Aoi, not like she's gonna say anything in this show anyway. LOL. Let's just take our time and thank OLM for finally adapting it into an anime and my god, they did an amazing job on this first episode. *chefs kiss* I have really high hopes for this anime and Idk how they're going to adapt it, that's the biggest question I have in mind. The animation looks just phenomenal and the music is composed by Yukari Hashimoto, another really awesome choice for this show.

I still can't believe I'm seeing Komi-san moving. LOL. Also, she's looking so beautiful... >.< Tadano looks great as well. I'm gonna watch over him as well. All these characters are some of my favorites. Komi-san has a communication disorder and she wants to make friends but everyone stays away from her because they think she's all high and mighty. How will she conquer this and make 100 more like 99 new friends? A great first episode. I can't wait to see more of this.

I must say as a Super Huge Fan of the manga....I was so happy and excited to see the anime Lol good to see Tadano and Komi
The OP and the animation both were pretty good....I knew it'd be great from the time I'd watched the trailer anyways


Off we go a journey to make 100 friends!!!!!!


Edit : Seriously? I was the first one to click the 5 out of 5(loved it) button and few people have already clicked the hated it button :(

Everyone, AND I MEAN EVERYONE, knows what Komi-san is: Communication Disorder the Animation.

Always loved Tadano Hitohito and Komi Shouko's relationship (even at the very beginning), and unsurprisingly, Tomohito Oda's manga is well celebrated by all, so the popularity speaks for itself. Black Clover's Asta and Aoi Koga's pairing is something that I'd never imagined to see, BUT IT WORKS FLAWLESSLY.

The visual expressions are absolutely ON POINT, especially the blackboard scene of words exchanged between Tadano and Komi through writing. Tadano is slowly changing Komi's mindset...and little do they know that this will be an extensive work of the silent Madonna beauty Komi making friends with 100 people, of which Tadano is the first.

Cider Girl's OP is great! Definitely loved this premiere, this is by far one of the best and beautiful premieres so far of the Fall season, and as a hardcore fan of the manga, this is to be expected of the manga's justice that the anime is done on such a high pedestal.

Komi's moves are so smooth in class but also very shy when trying to express herself. She's protrayed as the the perfect lady at school.

I love the contrast between her usual cool face and her cartoony face similar to the manga. Something else I want to mention is the way the music is synchronized with Komi's scenes from the epsisod as I think it's well done. There's a quiet yet noticable chemistry between Tadano and Komi. Great episode, got exactly what I had expected.

The studio take time on this episode to introduce our main lead, Komi and Tadano. No words need to spoken. Perfect first episode.

Note = This episode marks Tadano's first step as Chadano.

After waiting for 3000 years Komi san anime is finally here and the wait was worth it as we were delivered a great first episode.

Man I'm going nuts here, totally loved this episode. The character designs, visuals, directing were pretty much perfect. The opening sequence was really great too.

Komi san moments were glorious, she's beautiful. Her nervous moments were hilarious and cute. Komi x Tadano interactions were sweet.

Great premiere overall and I really hope the quality doesn't drop and the pacing as well.

Well everything was worth the wait and why not, seeing that first day of school being animated sure brings a lot of joy. Tadano being next to Komi, getting a glimpse of some of the other characters, everything was what I anticipated it to be.

Those expressions of Komi san, truly they never get old no matter how many times you see.

Nice OP too, and quite a fitting art style, hope the quality remains same throughout.
Once again a great start, can't wait for next week.

Komi is such a goddess that even picking up the eraser for her is a privilege. Tadano nearly lost his hand off of that. Freaking Shinobi going for the kill haha.

This was such a lovely episode, having only heard about the Komi-san manga from the memes and all-around without having read it yet, I wanted to give it a try and then decide to read the manga. I can clearly see just from this episode the hype surrounding this anime adaptation.

Ah, I started the manga and seeing it animated is just wonderful.
Tadano, an average high school boy managed to get along with the ''School Goddness'' and will be helping her to make a hundred friends. Seems basic but it's pretty interesting and a fun ride. Tadano's no ordinary MC, he's a CHAD. The OP is a banger and the animation is quite good. As expected from the same studio that made Pokemon.

I still can’t believe that Komi got an anime adaptation lol. I was really surprised when I first saw the pv and the OP. They looked a lot better than I thought they would. This episode looked good as well. Komi was cute as always.

Thus Komi’s making 100 friends challenge started. Good luck Komi!

man studio OLM nailed the adaptation... 10/10 for the first episode.
since Komi-san is like a 4-panel manga I thought the studio would slightly add something of their own style to make it enjoyable as Doga Kobo did with Nozaki-kun, KyoAni did with Nichijou and K-On and Studio GoHands did with Seitokai Yakuindomo.

But OLM made it awesome. For me, it's a perfect adaptation. The manga's art style is there, and damn Komi's hair shade. Awesome Job. Easily 10/10 for this one episode. And of course, the VA's perfectly did their job specially Tadano's VA. He was Asta and Shinra's VA previously, both of them hyped pumped-up characters, so playing Tadado, an average normal guy really adds more to his roles and variety.

Every dumb mangareader/anituber: "Komi-san cant be animated, it just wont work"
OLM:" And I took that personally"

Wth was that? I always believed that it would get an anime but if you told me the animation would be at that level, for an almost 4 panel SOL comedy manga series with very little movement then I would call you crazy.

Animation, direction, transition, voice acting. All great.

You cant tell me that the staff behind this dont love this series.

Still no VA for second best girl but lets hope we get there.

I'm gonna diverge a bit from the common opinion here and that while I enjoyed it a lot and find it quite inspired direction-wise with good production to back that up, I found it a bit too visually busy and bloated for my taste.

The visualization of Onomatopoeia was a given and I like how it was used but there was consistently so much text on screen that it started to detract from the overall episode. I hope it's just a one time thing tho I do have my doubts seeing how integrated it is into the overall episode.

Other than that it's quite neat!

For those waiting for fansubs, I've watched one going around but it isn't that good. Many subtitles where missing and I had to infer what was said by context I guess.

In any case, really good animation and a hilarious interaction between the main characters. I can definitely see why it was so anticipated. The fact that she wants to make that many friends in a school full of eccentrics is definitely an uphill battle. Can't wait to see how this develops.

The wait is really worth and the first episode did not disappoint it really stunned me how good this is from the beginning

I can't get a hold of Komi-san really like she can be so energetic and eccentric from actions only but we all know the catch that a single word can't really come out from her mouth until she's aware or feel like she's alone

Already progressing through something being friends with Tadano I think they're going to get along with each other quite well, I hope for the best for this series so far it's so good.

This was, dare I say, a perfect first episode! The art, animation, music...everything was so damn beautiful! Both Komi and the story are adorable and had me literally lol-ing on more than one occasion! Finally, the "finished" bit at the end really served as the cherry on top of this already very sweet ice-cream sundae!

P.S.
There were two post credit scenes (make sure you didn't miss them!).

Ah, yes, the coveted Komi-san adaptation is finally here! The animation was done beautifully. OLM pinpointed the facial reactions amazingly especially, for Komi. Here's to a lovely relationship between Tadano and Komi! The Op is great as well. The song fits perfectly and, overall, just sounds pleasant to the ears.

This was so sweet! It kinda reminded me to a cross between Senryuu Girl and Hitori Bocchi.

I can see myself enjoying this a lot as time goes on and I'm hoping it does reach that potential because it's off to a good start
