Review of WataMote: No Matter How I Look At It, It's You Guys' Fault I'm Not Popular!

Do you think of WataMote as a comedy? In that case, I understand you. And I envy you. I understand that some people never have to live like Tomoko, and I do genuinely envy these people that the never have to see her life as something relatable. I, on the other hand, painstakingly saw how my life was animated in front of me: * Envying socially successful peers while being forced to overhear their plans that you will never achieve. * Coping with your unpopularity by being sanctimonious and hypocritically considering yourself holier-than-thou for being unlike them, while you actually envy them and their life. * Actively choosing a personalityfor yourself, hoping it will change your life.
* Spending all your free time in your room, wanting to do something else but know knowing what or how.
* Facing inescapable virginity because you genuinely have no clue about how to change it, being so desperate as to long for sexual violence.
* Enjoying abusive and self-degrading porn.
* Having so few social interactions over time that they are countable, and therefore anxiously stuttering whenever someone unexpectedly talks to you.
* Shivering at the slightest contact with the opposite gender and imagining movie scenes to come out of it.
* Watching friends ace through life and achieve unimaginable success, while having to swallow your violent jealousy of their perfect lives.
* Imagining a future of your life turning around into joyful mediocrity, and believing your fantasy to the point of becoming delusional.

And also... if my life had a theme song, I’d scream my frustration to the sound of the world's loudest instruments. And the music video would be me throwing my body back and forth while shattering chains and smashing glass.

I’m sorry it had to be like this, Tomoko. I’m sorry that this is the reality you were given. You really don’t deserve the life you were thrown into, nobody does.
But please try to believe me when I say this: you are not alone. An entire world of people out there are crying with you. Don't know if that fact makes you feel better, but it's true.
