YAMAI... | Komi Can't Communicate Season 1 Episode 4 REACTION!

Yamai's character revolves about being obsessive yandere. It's gross, but she adds flavor to the show.

If there’s one good thing about Yamai, it’s that she makes the rest of the characters look better by comparison

[@Efwerd]

It’s so funny how Yamais’ voice actress usually voices sweet, cute, and wholesome characters. But here we get it too with the biggest ghost pepper on the side.

[@Ryodraco]

Yamai is someone you either hate hate or learn to love to hate. She can be amusing, provided you don't take her too seriously. I appreciate the story from here on at least presents her more as pathetic than dangerous. Her voice actress is amazing too at showing the mood swings and sheer insanity of Yamai.

[@HaydrogenBomb]

Yeah, as bad as Yamai gets, I don't hate her. At the very least, she has some funny moments, as well as moments when she's . . . kind of a decent person.

[@galonski64]

I can't even see why she hated, she always a blast. Lol

[@jasonsekiguchi458]

I can't help but cry my eyes out every time Komi manages to speak. Seeing her try her best like that... the cute stutters, you can hear the effort in her voice. It's so tiny, yet so powerful. Aoi Koga (the voice actor) does a phenomenal job of portraying this. She doesn't have many lines, and the lines she has aren't long or anything, but every noise she makes speaks volumes for the character. That's talent. She really brings Komi to life so well. And idk if you've seen Kaguya-sama yet (have only seen some of your JJK and Komi reactions), but Aoi Koga also voices Kaguya from that as well. Might have even been her breakout role, I think.

[@hidari1041]

Aoi koga? That noisy ass paimon?

[@apricotmadness4850]

She did a phenomenal Job as Kaguya then. What range she has.

[@pokabewrastlin]

Yamai needs to be locked in a straightjacket and flung into the sun, but even then im sure her sheer force of lust over Komi would keep her alive.

[@AlanaMisako]

LMAO

[@wrexgrafix84]

Practically all the characters’ names in this show are puns. Yamai means “sickness” and “Ren” means “love.” So she has a love sickness. Yamai is also the word that conjugates into the character trope “yandere” … those scary sick people who love you. I really hated Yamai Ren at first, but she kinda grows on you. Anyway, the danger seems to be over… Tadano doesn’t have to be worried about being buried somewhere in the mountains, haha.

[@Kanamo4781]

I hate the dot at the end of your comment bc now i'm scared to see if it happens.

[@LaylaGrant-uu6tc]

I absolutely HATE Ren so much as a character because well she's a Phco/Yandrue and I find her highly affensive because she's canonically gay. 😢🏳️‍🌈

[@Num201]

I dont think you noticed but their names are puns that are describing their character Tadano Hitohito - means "Ordinary Person" (tada no hito) Osana Najimi - means "childhood friend" (Osananajimi) Agari Himiko - is a little bit more in-depth but Agari means "stage fright" her given name Himiko is little bit more complex Yadano Makeru - means "dont want to lose" Yamai Ren - means "Twisted Love"

[@Anino_Makata]

Also Komi Shouko - communication disorder, but the name Komi can also be derived from the word "kami", which means god.

[@ionmariaskel6908]

​@@Anino_Makatabut isnt it communication komishoko or smth, like cant communicate

[@ElquiHayashi]

@@ionmariaskel6908 communication disorder is komisyou. ko here is nromally used to link something to a person (usually females or young children) like iiko = good kid / jimiko = average girl. so komisyou-ko means girl with communication disorder.

[@Credemis]

Thanks for turning me onto this show, I saw it on Netflix but didn’t consider it until I saw you doing reactions. And to anyone who enjoys this show, I highly recommend Kimi No Todoke. It’s in a similar vein where there’s a girl who has trouble making friends, but instead of have social anxiety and being worshipped by her classmates, she’s been ostracized by everyone because they think she’s creepy despite the fact she’s actually such a sweet person

Another one with a premise VERY similar to this is Hitoribocchi no Marumaru Seikatsu. It has a really cute design too. I absolutely loved this one, but sadly, the anime is from 2019 but still never got a continuation ... 😮‍💨

[@RheinielRDR97]

Yamai is totally unhinged XD

[@jangjangjangjong]

I think the only reason Komi accepted Yamai was because she was afraid Yamai would go to even more extreme measures if she rejected her.

That's one of the most uncomfortable and conserning realisations 😢

[@WilsonWilson-d3q]

Alana: I think I actually hate this girl. Don't worry, everyone *does* hate her, and that's the point.

[@LaylaGrant-uu6tc]

I hope that's the point because if it isn't then the one who created the character Ren needs to explain themselfs.

[@shadejackson1133]

i love how this went from a great anime with a positive message and some jokes to just completely batshit crazy stalker in a single episode... but seriously that girl needs to be put away... somewhere far far away 😬

[@JimStink]

When I first watched this episode I really hated yamai’s character. Like the fact that she’s such a stalker gives me the creeps 😰

[@georgejordan100]

you made sound like you dont hate her anymore.

[@LaylaGrant-uu6tc]

Not just she's a stalker, affensive to Lesbians/Gay women and girls, kidnapps, threats, no permission or consent but also the worst thing is that Ren gets no consequences, reflection on herself or improves herself instead it's all played for laughs "It's just a joke" sent a very negative message. 😢

[@TheLightbane]

There is not enough holy water in the Vatican to banish the demon that is Yamai 😨

Couldn't agree more 😂👍

[@kevisaacs]

This girl almost singlehandedly made me want to drop the entire show at this episode, her character is so insufferable

[@Matiel5836]

That's why I actually call her "YABAI"-san because yabai means VERY BAD and idk if the author deliberately made it so that her name rhymed with yabai cus wow the timing, she is really a YABAI (Very Bad) thing ; - ;

[@shun0825]

yamai is a yandere a person with obsessive possessive behaviour towards a certain person they like/love "if anyone else is wondering"

[@JasonJu-mm9vj]

In Japanese, yamai means sickness, ren means love. So the name of this girl means sickness love, aka yandere.

[@HaydrogenBomb]

So . . . . yeeeeeaaaah. Yamai's bad, but there is a silver lining to this episode. This is probably Yamai at her worst, so it's all uphill from here.

You're supposed to do exactly what you were doing which is just an uncomfortable laugh but people really get super offended and start crying like babies when Ren is on screen.

Yamai is the reason I stopped reading the Manga. The writer keeps rewarding her dangerous Psyco Stalker behavior. It kind of took the innocent fun out of the story for me. She isn't quirky and misunderstood, she's just crazy and unpleasant in my opinion!

[@Ryodraco]

She never really gets what she wants though as far as her stalking being rewarded, and tends to be presented as pathetic. She also gets routinely punished for her behavior Spoiler (with one character being revealed to physically knock her out and drag her away on a regular basis).

[@HaydrogenBomb]

I can get that reasoning, but if Yamai's the reason you stopped, then you're missing out. (If it's any comfort, the more characters are introduced, the less screen time Yamai has. And there are some GREAT characters introduced later)

[@cannotdecideusername]

yeah, I get you. I kept reading a bit further but all the extra character after Najimi kinda meh.. then I dropped it.

[@christiankaiser3885]

@@cannotdecideusername Yeah, that was my impression as well. I read to about chapter 150, so I did give it a fair shake.
