Him being an active participant in all of this would defeat the purpose of him trying to avoid it though.

He wouldn't be an active participant though? His entire fault is that he relies on other people to know what he wants so when he runs into somebody who misunderstands what he wants, he just doubles down and gets confused as to why they aren't doing what he wants. He just needs to speak up and say, "I don't want to do this." But he won't and so he suffers.

I'm not really sure I understand Komi-bro's psychology at all.

He doesn't want to do anything but he's also too lazy to actively resist

He definitely resists and tries to escape, but Hitomi is too powerful

She's had a poorly-hidden crush on him for like 140 chapters now, it'd be weird if they didn't.

Now, if they thought it was Katai, that'd be some poo poo.

Also they saw Manbagi being blushy and lovey-dovey with Tadano during the summer festival "They Saw" chapter.

Yeah, they already know:

- Komi loves Tadano.
- Manbagi appears to like Tadano too.
- Komi and Manbagi are best friends.

That plus the clues Komi gave were enough to figure out the rest.

It's really nice to see how far Komi's gotten with her relationships to be able to hold conversations without the notebook. There's been less and less of it.

Tadano has the density of the average teenage boy.

X-ray technicians stand behind a lead wall which is slightly less dense.

Hi all! I’ve just started reading this and am really enjoying it. It’s really heartwarming so far and I need that in my life right now.

Sometimes it’s hard for me to read though because I have extreme social anxiety so sometimes the awful waking nightmare of the kind of thing Komi lives with bleeds through and makes a bit to real, but I still love it.

I just got introduced to Najimi and they are a very enjoyable person! Anyway, just wanted to drop in and say hello, I don’t post in ADTRW much at all so I guess I don’t have much to say other than I’m glad this thread is here

If you're still around: some people find chapters 23-25 to be a bit ... intense ... and sometimes have trouble getting past that part. Don't worry, the rest of the series isn't like that, and you can skip those chapters if you like without missing much.

yamai never goes away or gets better, but she gets sidelined as komi gets more actual friends.

Yeah, I guess once the main cast goes into 2nd year, a bunch of characters get sidelined/lose focus due to no longer being part of their class. Tadano, Komi and Manbagi are basically the main focus.

(Spoilers for goons new to the manga; you've been warned!) Doesn't Yamai actually try to get better at socializing/reaching out to people once they get to 2nd year since Komi is no longer in her same class, though?

Well, she was always pretty popular among her own group. Note how in the second year class she quickly becomes friends with Manbagi's circle. She's still a creepy stalker toward Komi, but is slightly more accepting of Tadano and is full-on frenemies with Nakanaka, which cuts back her terribleness.

she's less terrible when komi isn't around but otherwise hasn't changed at all.
