WataMote: Cringe Comedy or Social Horror?


It was really good, a show that will swing your mood from laughing like a maniac to being on the verge of tears, with morbid humor. :eyes:

Cringe Inducing Realism

A slice of life comedy that takes a somewhat different take on a socially inept shut-in Tomoko. It’s a parody yes, but the amount of feels that it generates is too damn high. Seriously speaking, there were episodes that just made me too depressed. I had to pause a gazillion of times just to collect myself.

Tomoko was not made a likable character from the get-go, in fact she doesn’t really have any particular traits that you would find in a likable character, but she sure is relatable, and if not relatable then surely you actually feel for her.

Overall, definitely a series to watch. Might not be to everyone’s liking, but I sure liked it to the extreme. It was a show that kept me on my toes desperately waiting for the next episode.
