That "EXPLOSION" reaction was gold, my favorite part.

There's more about Tadano after that past. After that rejection, he's unable to saw himself as a "special" person not just because he changed his appearances as normal as possible, but also he believe he has any value that makes people interested in him. Not just that, after the rejection, he decided to fully abandon his feelings and prioritize others feelings, because his feelings is what makes him hurt at the first place. That's why, from what I explained above, Tadano is not good at romance stuff, despite he has room-reading skill, because he would deny any possibilities that related to romance or him being special to someone. Even when Komi giving her attention to Tadano, he would questioned himself "is this okay?" Because he unable to see himself special so that someone like Komi would do this to him. And that's why, if you saw Tadano deny any possibility several times and even unable to respond to it, it really shows how traumatized Tadano is.

Oh wow. Thanks for explaining that!

Nakanaka-san... the name can be literally translated or rather interpreted as "she is kind of... you know..." meaning gurl be weeeeeird... But the kanji used to write naka commonly means middle, read as Chuu a reference to her "Chuunnibyou". Also Omoharu her given name means something like imagination/belief/dream + Srping/adolecence (yep that last part is like the springtime of youth) which together are also a reference to her chuunibyou. Therefore she has 3 references to the Chuunibyou in her name so we know how into it she is...

"I AIN'T TRYNA F*** MONALISA* 20:30 cracked me up so hard, hehehehhe...

[@francoliles189]

Nah, y'all gotta watch "Love, Chunibyo, and Other Delusions" to truly see the beautiful ridiculousness of 8th grader syndrome. Nakanaka got a lot of personality traits of the main girl, Rikka. And Tadano got a lot of resemblance of the lead guy, Yuuta. A lot of her wording sounds very similar to them too.

9:55 when you identify the autistic shawty in the squad and immediately develop a connection

[@xenos2214]

I think he screamed cuz he spent money to buy an umbrella, but then it stopped raining. Just a guess.

[@kallistikaleid]

I think the yell at the end, with "The sun came out" had to do with him realizing that Komi cared enough for him to wait for him, and shared the umbrella with him. I could be remembering wrong. :/

[@kokuutou92]

Yeah it was more of a happy elated scream, I never took it as I'm upset cuz "I messed up" or the sun came out

[@ataldr4802]

The laugh at the beginning tho 😂🤣😂

[@kyng_spade]

11:15 that's how you know you're best friends 😂

[@johnpeteramandog462]

To the manga readers, rewatching this episode... and that middle school rejection scene with 'that girl'

[@wrexgrafix84]

At the end of the Yadano (the competitive girl) story, the narrator said a new “rival” was born, but in Japanese, they said “tomo,” which normally means “friend.” In this case, it can mean both “friend” and “rival” or “colleague.” So Yadano became a friend for Komi, and for Yadano, Komi was acknowledged as her rival. Yadano Makeru is a pun for “oh no, I lose,” or “hate losing.”

[@jorgitosilva]

Najimi stole tadano's umbrella (an left him a note telling him so) and they also told komi that tadano needed someone to share the umbrella because he didn't have one, so komi waited for tadano... Najimi set them up to share the umbrella... the japanese universal sign of being a couple... kids draw/write a couple's name under an umbrella (aiaigaza) just like we would write X+Y inside a heart to show puppy love... that is how meaningful sharing an umbrella is...

[@galonski64]

I thought she read the note and waited, no one told her

[@jorgitosilva]

@@galonski64 you are correct... Told does not just mean using spoken words... the note is how she was told...

[@davidyodo24]

Yes, Chuunnibyou girl is here.

[@davidyodo24]

12:47 Operation L, reminded me of Hououin Kyouma.

“At least he got to see her get wet…” … PHRASING

[@jorgitosilva]

Second year middle school sickness (Chunibyo) is when the kids are so into playing around as if they had magical powers and occult stuff because they think it is cool (it can also be something less magical and more mysterious like spies)... Kazuma mocks megumin in konosuba for acting like that... Staples of that kind of character are the eyepatch and the bandage on one of the arms, both to say that there is an evil/ancient power sealed in them that they can't control (making them kind of like the protagonist of a story)... imagine naruto's fox or sazuke's eye but more generic demon power... also they dress up a bit dark... so tadano was actually a weird guy... but even like that he was so average that he just kinda looked like a random delinquent..

[@milesprower6110]

It's so funny when it happens that the character is not actually a chunibiyo but legit~ xD

[@timconner7693]

I always kinda figured all that Chuni stuff was the result of how conformist Japanese society is (or can be) and school is probably where they start drilling it into them.

[@patricktorres1292]

They should react to Chunnibyo!

[@jorgitosilva]

Yadano Makeru... Makeru No Ya/Ia Da directly translates to "I hate Losing"

[@aaditamin3750]

When you’re so early there are less than 5 comments

[@timconner7693]

Tadano didnt just die a little inside that day, he died completely and thus Tadano's own extreme personality was born! He will do whatever it takes to be ordinary and average! Remember those mid terms exam results a few Ep.s back? Where it showed their scores and then the school's/regional/national (heck if I know which) average? Tadano's scores matched the averages exactly. Well that's mostly just my own theory to be honest, the manga never really explores any of this. I'm just guessing based off of what they've shown, it is a school that seems to only take in kids with "unusal" personality quirks of some kind and I dont see how Tadano would get in unless he's actively being average 24/7.

[@sly_cat]

I personally believe Tadano went out of his way to be normal and when he tried to form some sort of "individuality" for lack of a better word, he was stuck as the definition of average.

5:55 Komi where yo mom at 😏

[@d3-vil]
