"Komi-san is no doubt a masterpiece because of its fluid animation."
-not me (but seriously, wut the heck?)

This review is about the full season of the anime and so whatever you do, don't get triggered...

Ahhh... SoL. One of the genres that are being discriminated against because they are 'boring'. I like SoL shows, alongside romance and comedy, and one of my favorite genres. At first, I don't believe in others said that SoL shows are 'boring' because for me they are entertaining. Comedy. Comedy is like a dart game, whether it will hit the mark or miss. For me, comedy will be never missed but this? This is the first SoL comedy show that made me feel annoyed.

I will extend and revise my statements from my previous preliminary review.

Komi-san Can't Communicate is one of the anticipated animes by many manga readers that were hyping this show from the first episode. Seriously, this season is more annoying than a weak season from Summer 2021. We got a Symphogear parody Takt Op. Destiny, edgy-wannabe Platinum End, annoying Fruit of Evolution, etc., and this anime is one of them. I have two words to describe this anime; cringe and ridiculous. And it's pain in the ass to say this but this anime is OVERHYPED and OVERRATED.

Story:
The initial premise was to find Komi a hundred people who will become her friends, with the help of Tadano. That premise becomes irrelevant when you realize everyone is magically drawn to her. For some reason, everyone in their high school finds her irresistibly crazy attractive. She quickly becomes a passive protagonist shortly after meeting her second friend. Her goal no longer motivates the plot because her goal of having 100 friends is now fulfilled. Instead of making 100 friends, she should’ve filed 100 restraining orders because these students are absolutely insane. To be straightforward, the story is NOTHING. You can describe it as a gag manga because the story is episodic but seriously, the sub-plots are just slightly moving forward. This is a SoL show, right? The story wasn't realistic at all. If Komi wants a hundred friends, did she know that some or many of them will backstab or might be toxic to her? Nothing is interesting happens because it always uses the same formula all over again. Boy meets girl, the boy helps the girl to find friends because she's lonely, she found friends, the plot will back to boy and girl, it became a romance, and the cycle repeats itself. It's like an endless semester. In short, it's just your typical SoL that you can find on other SoL shows. Oh right, the comedy... Tbh, still very missed the mark. The comedy for this anime is for elementary students. No quality of humor, and still the jokes weren't in the right timing. If you tell a joke to your friend or partner, or whatever, timing is always the best thing, even your joke you'll say is dumb. Still, the comedy was so unfunny and it made me cringe and felt annoyed, while watching this show. Even Gintama's poop, dirty, or dumb jokes were funny because it was in the right timing (considering the other dumb gag shows like Saiki K., A Destructive God Sits Next to Me, etc.). And the wholesomeness? I didn’t felt a single wholesomeness factor in this show because the show was trying to be funny but it wasn't.

Art:
The more I watch this show, the more I get used to the art and it was fine though. It may be not a masterpiece of art, but the art for this show is decent and suitable for the series. Sometimes, the art sequence or cinematography is like in the Monogatari series. You know, the angles and the frames looked like in Monogatari but no head tilting. I thought they copying that style but whatever. Still looks good though.

Characters:
I will say it, the characters are freaking annoying. This is one of the worst characters that I've in my history of watching anime. The craziest part of that is, Komi, which is a waifu bait for the fans, befriends with a cross-dressing trap, a masochist, a violent yandere, a ninja, and a normal guy. I mean, who will befriend that kind of person? Don't get me wrong, I like school animes that have eccentric characters like in School Rumble, but in this anime, they are so ridiculous. The perfect definition of overreacting and cringe. Do you know Teruhashi from Saiki K.? The girl who was always been followed by many guys in her class because of her beauty? Komi is just like that but more on the opposite and quiet. Komi was just a fanservice mascot for the men who want to add her to their waifu list.

Sound:
This was pretty fine. Definitely will buy the soundtrack. The OP was pretty catchy and the ED was pretty fine too. I'll say that sound saved the whole anime, even just a little bit of it.

Overall, this anime is so overwhelming to watch. The characters and the story are so forgettable as heck. This anime is sort of a guilty pleasure or for those people who want to kill time. After all those good production values, the story, which is the most important factor, is the weakest part of it and I didn't like it that badly. This anime is a shame for me as a SoL comedy stan and maybe I'll believe those others said. A nonsensical story doesn't deserve this kind of production value. For those who love little things, this anime can be for you. But for those who seek pure high-quality comedy and worth of your enjoyment, please don't watch this crap. You will just waste your time and your precious brain cells.
