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

If I can come up with three words to describe this Anime, it would be CRINGE, CRINGE, CRINGE. The type of cringe where you are ripping your heart out. You might as well grow bald from pulling your hair out. The clenching of fists and teeth does not stop! If there is anything beneficial I got from this, it is a workout. I feel like the hulk from tensing the muscles all over my body. Now all that is left is to scream as loud as I can!!!! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!! Each time you think you have seen something so embarrassing and something so stupid, but you end upseeing something more worse than the previous episode. It makes it so difficult to watch, but you keep on going because there is that element of duplicity that is secretly familiar to all of us. It is obviously exaggerated but that is the comical side of life that exists. We don't like to talk about it, and prefer to hide it under the carpet just before the guests arrive. Why do we do that? Well, we do it because it is not socially acceptable. It does not fit the "IMAGE" of how we are supposed to behave. We also want to portray a certain projection of ourselves into the world that is not realistic or honest.

Now that I think about it. The behaviuor or tendencies of the main character were probably not crazy..... but rather the reactions of the cast that made her look more awkward. They are the secret ingredient in putting her in the spotlight and setting up a certain perspective that influences our understanding of the way things work.
