”You may be normal, but you’re special to me.”
Valentine’s Day rears its dramatic head once more, this time fuelled by Manbagi’s intention to confess to Tadano when she hands over her chocolate. But can you get what you want and still come out on the losing end of it?
Sometimes this manga is okay, sometimes it is very good, and, when it truly needs to be, it can be utterly brilliant. And when it comes to the climax of shredding poor Manbagi’s dreams of Tadano, it handles the situation with more aplomb than I would have granted it capable of.
The poor girl’s confession is dragged over several chapters of Valentine’s Day antics, including another heartbreaker of a moment between Naruse and Ase (hammer well deserved). I liked how they can’t seem to find a traditional confession spot because they’re all in use too.
What I really loved about this is that it gives Manbagi exactly what she wants, but she’s mature enough to know that it’s not, truly, what Tadano wants and she gently pushes him to confront that, even if it crushes her dreams in the process. It was an out that I didn’t see coming, plus it gives her that line I opened the review with, which is just so… perfectly put.
This results in Tadano forcing Komi’s hand, who was too nervous herself, and this leads to a very, very sweet series of panels as the coupling officially begins. Which also pays off later when the two are now dating but can barely maintain eye contact without melting down in a great series of short chapters.
And it turns out that being as boisterous (read: loud) as she is, Manbagi’s pain does not exist in a vacuum. Her support group is amazing and she gets closure with both Tadano and Komi (the latter section gives the mangaka an excuse for a boob shot that I appreciate the story at least literally admits he just wanted to draw).
Toss in a hilarious section where Tadano’s sister completely mis-deduces who gave her brother which chocolates, plus an ancient proverb that sums up Najimi’s character in one fell swoop and you have basically the perfect volume of this series.
Almost.
Please be advised that my usual rant about Yamai will now occur, so you can avoid the next couple paragraphs if you feel you’ve gotten the gist with the last dozen or more volumes.
I’ve never seen a manga so quickly burn through an incredible amount of accumulated goodwill as this one does with the Yamai chapters. I’m sorry, jokes about date rape drugs are NOT funny and, exaggerated for effect or no, I just cannot even.
It’s even more annoying because this is perilously close to being a great chapter itself, as Komi tries to acknowledge Yamai while also letting her down gently. As usual, the latter is written with the grace of a mud-spattered hog on a freshly made bed and it deftly soured me far more than was necessary.
Sigh. Anyway, adjust your ratings based on your tolerance. I think it’s fair to say that Yamai is one of my most-loathed characters in manga history just because she often ruins an otherwise great series, case in point. She’s just a walking sexual assault joke and, well, no thanks. It’s even worse when the surrounding material is so incredibly strong.
4 stars - it is really, really annoying that the whole love triangle got resolved in a way that I unreservedly enjoyed with some of the best writing this story has done, and it’s funny to boot, then it just has to bring in the black fly in the Chardonnay. Sadly, that dragged me totally out of the story, but, if you do not care about such things, I think the manga’s rarely been better.

Yes ! Finally a turning point in the strange but compelling love triangle that is Komi....Tadano and Manbagi.
Worth the wait.

Valentine’s Day is here and there’s commotion at school but also brings a whirlwind of emotions for our love triangle. However, the moment we’ve been waiting for has happened as Tadano has confessed his feelings for Komi after letting Manbagi down and while there’s a lot of tears, Manbagi bravely has accepted it all and still has her beautiful smile.
The now-official couple has become the “very” hot topic of the school and despite her extreme hatred for it, Yamai has accepted it to a hugely lesser extent.
Thankfully by the end, Komi and Manbagi’s friendship is still very strong.
A (100%/Outstanding)

That’s it. The volume you’ve all been waiting for – yes, really, there’s no point denying it – is this one.
The confession. Or rather, the confessions. Those of the various protagonists in this love triangle. It’s rather well done, balancing intense – even extremely intense – emotions with the usual humour, which, thankfully, is less absurd than usual given the circumstances. It rekindles the interest of the series, which had been starting to lose steam over the last few volumes.

Super cute volume! I love the friendship between Tadano, Komi and Manbagi.
I feel like the series will be winding down, now that we have the romance...

in the 23rd volume of komi can’t communicate, it’s valentine’s day again. when manbagi gives tadano chocolate and tells him her true feelings, he finally realizes his own feelings…for komi.
i can’t believe i let myself go so long before finally reading this volume! it’s been about a year and a half since i read the previous one, oops. luckily, this is a series that’s very easy to jump back into. still, i’m kicking myself for not reading it sooner because komi and tadano finally got together!! of course, they are still really awkward around each other, but i’m so happy for them. and i do feel kinda bad for manbagi. i can’t wait to see what they get up to in the next volume!

Volume 23 is the 'finally!' volume... and, somehow, the whole thing felt a bit underwhelming; even if, of course, I myself was also thinking that very same thing... Finally!
I'm just dreading how things are going to be from now on, in that these two, shy birds, are not really up to much in terms of PDA, and sometimes the anticipation is what sells a story.
So, we'll see! Hopefully this will continue to be fun and cute, and we'll get enough of the best secondary characters... and not too much Yamay, as she was prominently featured in this one (at least, prominently for my taste).

After 22 Volumes filled with slow burning awkward but growing tender teenage feelings from the main characters, we FINALLY come the big emotional pay off!
In Japan, girls give boys and people they like chocolate on Valentine's Day and so after a comedic montage of Komi giving everyone BUT Tadano chocolate, Manbagi gathers her courage and confesses to Tadano that she wants to be his girlfriend. He nervously accepts but despite getting everything she wants, Manbagi suspects he isn't being totally honest and presses upon him that he needs to be sure in his choice. This utterly selfless act encourages Tadano to tearfully admit although he likes Manbagi a lot, he's completely smitten with someone else and always has been. He just feels so unworthy of being with her romantically because she's the class Goddess and he's Mr Average.
Upon hearing this Manbagi makes the difficult decision to yet again sacrifice her own happiness for her friends and encourages Tadano to seek out Komi (as if it wasn't obvious) and tell her his true feelings. She practically chases him out the classroom to do so.
What follows is a super awkward but heartfelt confession between Tadano and Komi (who kept a hold of his homemade chocolate out of nerves and accidentally melted it) that is beautifully illustrated in large emotionally impacting full panel pages. The cover of this volume is actually one of them in colour.
It's a lovely succession of scenes and of course Komi accepts with her quiet understated little nod before they both practically run away from each other blushing.
The ensuing chapters explore the aftermath of such a big life changing event in both funny and dramatic ways.
Manbagi finds the entire class had stayed behind to eavesdrop on her confession (they all overheard her loud proclamation to Komi the other day) and everyone admires her courage and commiserate with her loss. Even the Germphobe Mallet Girl gives her a tearful hug! They all take Manbagi out to cheer her up and show their support.
Yandere Girl gets super upset that the object of her obsession has a boyfriend now and has a mini-murderous meltdown. Her long suffering friends keep a wary eye on her but it is thanks to Komi's visit that she reluctantly accepts her new reality and even begrudgingly compliments Komi's choice in boys. She's not the most popular character in the roster but I personally find her freaking hilarious. Her licking Komi's teacup after she's gone despite her other friends still BEING there, cracked me up. That kind of unhinged dark humour always appeals to me.
There's some lovely closure with Komi and Manbagi where they have a sleepover at Komi's house and further cement their friendship together that ends in a tickle fight. Only Manbagi could bring out the rowdy teenager hidden deep within Komi!

It took roughly 23 volumes, 300 chapters, and more than 4,350 pages of content, but readers have finally summit the mountain of shounen anxiety they first encountered years ago.
KOMI CAN'T COMMUNICATE v23 is the payoff. Everybody blushes. Everybody cries. Everybody complains. And everybody shows a little bit of growth in the end. Manbagi's affection for Tadano hits a speedbump when confronted with the ironclad reality that he has eyes for someone else. She knew this, of course, but that doesn't make the reality any easier to tolerate. Heartbreak is heartbreak.
As for Tadano himself, readers are well aware how the young man has been dancing around his affection for the goddess of the classroom since the beginning. One might find it unfortunate it takes Manbagi's heartbreak to push Tadano toward romantic fulfillment, but life is like that sometimes. Tadano is neither confident nor self-assured, and his meek, self-deprecating sense of awareness is both an asset as well as a crutch. But beneath the veneer, Mr. Average is actually pretty cool. And when he finally confesses to Komi, it's only right that he receives as much criticism as he does well-wishing.
This volume excels elsewhere, too. Isagi, for example, makes good on a promise to herself to start living with fewer regrets. The student council president and resident germaphobe spearheads the manga's newly prescient theme of female friendship when she actively consoles a weary Manbagi. Support networks are vital, and the core of this volume rests on validating this truth for individuals whose openness and vulnerability know no end.
KOMI CAN'T COMMUNICATE v23 is an exhale and a warm embrace, as Yamai (obsessive girl) learns the value of letting go, Katai (muscle guy) actively weeps for his master, and Osana broadcasts to the world her latest research on the obviousness of teenage romance in the modern era.

I love “Komi Can’t Communicate”. I was introduced to it via the Netflix anime and was desperate to know what happens in Komi and Tadano’s second year of High School. I was not disappointed! Komi’s goal to make 100 friends is such a sweet journey and Tadano is just the cutest character. I love characters that are shy and quiet because I relate to them more. Later in the series other characters are obviously introduced, some that I’m not too keen on, not because they are bad characters, I’m just not a fan of them.

300 chương, Valentine, hai người đã tỏ tình. Đến lúc bỏ không đọc truyện nữa rồi :v.
Đùa thôi. Một tập nhiều khoảnh khắc ngọt ngào, đồng nghĩa với những fanservice ngập tràn trang giấy (một thứ mình không cần ở tập này). Yamai vẫn làm mình khó chịu như xưa (đến tập này là biến thái quá sức chịu đựng).
Dù sao cũng chúc mừng đôi trẻ đến với nhau. Komi tập này cũng nói chuyện nhiều hơn, hoạt bát và có phần chủ động hơn những tập trước. Một hành trình rất dài và có vẻ như tác giả đã quên mất mục tiêu ban đầu là kiếm 100 người bạn cho cô bạn này. Hơi buồn nhưng mình cũng sẽ chấp nhận vậy.

Komi Can’t Communicate Vol. 23 was a fantastic addition to the series that finally resolves the love triangle between Komi, Manbagi, and Tadano.
Valentine's Day is here and Manbagi has decided this is it, she's going to finally tell Tadano how she feels about him. Manbagi encourages Komi to figure out what she wants to do about her feelings as well. But can Komi really take that step?
Komi Can’t Communicate is an excellent series that has become one of my favorite manga series. The premise of a girl who can't communicate wanting to make 100 friends is a good one. That premise has evolved quite a bit over the course of the series as Komi has gotten more comfortable talking to people but at its' core, she still has a communication disorder and she's still looking to make 100 friends. This was another volume where she doesn't make any new friends but as the volume is solely focused on resolving the love triangle, that made sense.
This volume opens with Manbagi asking Tadano to talk after school as she's decided to tell him she likes him. We then see throughout the day Komi giving Valentine's chocolates to everyone except Tadano which he isn't sure how to respond to. From there over the course of several chapters, we see Manbagi confess her feelings and talk through that with Tadano. Ultimately Manbagi realizes that while she likes Tadano, he doesn't like her in the same way so she pushes him to be honest with the person he does like. I thought this was quite mature of Manbagi and I liked that while she knew she did the right thing, her friends helped her through it when she was hurt afterwards. We then finally get Tadano and Komi confessing their feelings and agreeing to be a couple. This went pretty much how I expected it to with the pair so embarrassed that they had a hard time even looking at each other. I'm so happy we finally got here as I feel like I've been waiting 23 volumes for this.
Overall Komi Can’t Communicate Vol. 23 was an amazing read and I'm looking forward to continuing with the series soon.
