One of my favorite things about Komi Can’t Communicate Volume 8  is the positive and realistic portrayal of female friendships.

Another thing I enjoyed about this volume is the developing romantic chemistry between Tadano and Komi. I love that one of the running jokes of the series is that most of the other characters can see the romantic chemistry between Komi and Tadano. While the two of them are too shy or oblivious to see that they reciprocate the same feelings for one another. Nonetheless, I think it adds some quality to the story and leans into the romantic element of the manga and making it a bit of a slow burn love story.

If you are looking for great light and funny romantic comedy then I highly recommend picking this one up.
