Synopsis

After locking herself inside her closet for two years, Shijima Tsukishima finally comes out of isolation to attend high school. However, when she looks at herself in the mirror, she discovers two shimeji mushrooms growing on the top of her head. This odd occurrence, combined with a lack of social ability and being bullied in middle school, leads Shijima to keep to herself when she arrives at school.

While reading alone, Shijima is approached by her classmate, Majime Yamashita, an eccentric girl with a fried egg on her head. Majime pesters Shijima to be her friend, giving her the nickname "Shimeji" upon seeing the mushrooms growing on her head. After enough insistence on friendship, Shimeji gives in and decides to keep Majime company. Shimeji tries to get through a less-than-normal high school life as she explores the mysteries and wonders of this strange world with her new tenacious companion.

There isn’t another manga or experience out there quite like Shimeji Simulation. No matter who you are or what your interests are I think there is something here for you. Even if somehow upon finishing Shimeji find yourself dissatisfied or disappointed I don't think you will forget the experience that this manga is.

Shimeji Simulation is my favorite manga of all time and I didn't even realize how much it affected me until I took the time to think about it. I used to think when it came to media that unless it fit my extremely specific criteria or niche I wouldn't look into it. However ...

humans have this strange idea that all movement in one's life can be spurred by a single epiphany. that one singular experience can change someone's entire outlook on life. it misconstrues, stretches, and distorts the value of true growth. growing as a person is earned through a variety of experiences, both good and bad. it's easy to twiddle your thumbs and wait for someone to come save you. it's hard to change your shape.

shimeji simulation pushes the very boundary of what's possible with a 4-koma structure. it's confusing, adorable, heartwrenching, and miserable and will leave you stunned by the end.. all while asking a simple ...

On Way To Language is a book of essays by the famous philosopher Martin Heidegger. Published in 1959, it's a collection of writings and lecturers about language as a whole. The first chapter is titled “Language in Poetry”, where Heidegger starts to mull over the poetry of Georg Trakl.
I encourage all critics, of any medium really, to go read that chapter. It's a textbook example of what pointless overthinking does to a man.

Once I read the first volume of Shimeji Simulation, and after completing the solid Girls' Last Tour, I went on MAL, Anlist, heck, even Goodreads, to gather some opinions about the ...
