Komi Can't Communicate

## Komi Can't Communicate *Komi Can't Communicate* (*Komi-san wa Komyushou Desu*) is a gentle, funny, and consistently touching anime about overcoming isolation — one of Netflix's best anime acquisitions. Shouko Komi is so strikingly beautiful that every student at her new high school is awestruck into silence around her — ironically, because Komi herself suffers from a severe communication disorder that makes speaking feel impossible. The only person who discovers the truth is Hitohito Tadano, an unremarkably average boy with exceptional skill at reading the room. When he learns Komi's dream is to make 100 friends, he commits to helping her reach it, one painfully awkward, deeply earnest conversation at a time. The series is a warm and clever comedy that treats social anxiety with unusual empathy and care.
