Review of WataMote: No Matter How I Look At It, It's You Guys' Fault I'm Not Popular!
Sorry in advance for the spoilers, but this time i'm unable to express myself without one or two: Tomoko Kuroki is a 15 years old girl who just entered high school, and has high expectatives to be very popular and stay surrounded for a lot of friends. But she can't speak to anyone without a panic attack, so she starts to believe that the fault that she is so unpopular and no one talks to her is just everything fault but not her's. She has another sibling, Tomoki, a boy who is the striker of the football team and has some friends unlike his sister. Well now,true review and spoilers beyond this point:
Tomoki is a girl that we could call "a weeb" she has a lot of questions about the typical changes on a young body (puberty), sex and why life is so unfair, in a truly, truly, truly, raw way. This could be just a comedy but it is more real than you guys, can even imagine.
She never talk to his parents about this kind of things, and looks shelter in his brother but him keeps refusing her and continuosly bumped her from his room.
Every single episode is a disgrace in Tomoko's life and ends with her questioning what's wrong with her, until in the final episode, she realizes that she just is what she is; she is just Tomoki and if Tomoki is unpopular, well... who cares??
Plus to the previous and very curious to me: This is the first slice of life anime, (if we can call it like this), where the mother slaps daugther for his behaviour (twice), which is a very common form of education in many countries but is never shown in this kind of animes
