That moment when you realise that aside from her monologues, Tomoko rarely speaks at all throughout the show. She isn't actually seen as too 'weird' by anyone, just an awkward shy girl. The exxagerated scenes are probably just her overthinking
I think this anime was really all about how invisible some people can be because they struggle to spit out a single sentence. We never noticed them and still don't notice them. Imagine, a full day of casual conversation for us is like climbing mt Everest for them, it's amazing how far a person can be displaced from a simple lack of social skills. Worse yet, some of us might actually want to help them, but in the end they can only help themselves, their brain is now hardwired to an introverted, lonely life
as someone who struggles with anxiety the voice acting is really good, for me it always feels like i have to force the words out of my mouth, and this is exactly how it sounds, it's weird just hearing anxious mumblings without hearing my thoughts screaming at me, this makes me surprised anyone can understand what i say. I've been on some medication that greatly helped
I used to take anxiety medication..that was a couple of months ago, I don’t take it anymore, while I’m still shy and all I don’t feel like I’m going to vomit just by talking to people. I actually can hold a normal conversation…sometimes. It gets better bro. Trust me.
@@1ROCOCO oh yeah, some things gave me so much anxiety i felt like someone was stabbing me in the gut, but after starting my meds that almost completely went away, it was amazing. they didn't do as much for my depression but recently I've been improving so much! i still realize i mumble a lot when i hear myself in recordings lol...

if you don't mind asking, what self-improvement helped you? i still struggle with severe social anxiety in my 20s, and it's impacting the person i wish to be
@@MienshaosOkay, this it's gonna be long and with bad english. I was like this until I turned 22, then I start working on a fast food place, it was really hard, I felt out of place, I was really akward when talking to other workers and I felt terrible when I was too slow or made mistakes. I wanted to cry but I knew that I couldn't just go back to my safe place so I just didn't give up. What I mean is, I forced myself to do all this things that I was so scared to do and eventually I started to feel it like something more and more normal. Now I don't have trouble speaking with strangers because that's what I do on my work all the time. You are not going to improve doing the same as always, it takes time but it's possible ♥️✨
Just talk slowly. If other people talk fast doesn't mean you have to follow their pace. If you think something like that would make you bad, its not. After days, weeks, years, people will forget about what you think you messed up. In the end of the day it will be something silly for them. Don't worry about bro. Just live how you like. Don't give a fuck about what other people think about you. Unless you did something bad to them, you should apologize. Just live life bro. Other people got their own problem. They gonna forget about what you did after time.
i like tomoko and i think is the best anime girl representating a person with social anxiety but is so unnecessary calling Bocchi and Komi like that touch some grass LMAO
@@dummykoala8966being shy is actually really different from social anxiety !! “A normal trait that can cause people to feel uncomfortable or reserved in social situations. Shy people may experience physical symptoms like blushing, sweating, or an upset stomach. They may also feel awkward around people they don't know or in new situations, but they can usually still function in social settings and motivate themselves to perform when needed. Shyness can be managed and children may even grow out of it as they mature.” “A mental health condition that causes people to experience intense fear and anxiety in social situations, which can disrupt their quality of life. People with social anxiety may dread being judged by others and go to extremes to avoid social interactions. This can make it difficult for them to function in everyday settings like school, work, or relationships. Social anxiety can also cause physical reactions like nausea, sweating, heart racing, or dizziness.” which is seen in tomoko!/nm :)
I love Watamote, I think she is so cute and funny, I have a friend very similar to her, even with some rather extreme thoughts too, I would like to be friends with Watamote
@@Tomokohusband1998 She's fine, when a bad situation happens, she usually stutters, gets nervous and anxious, and I'm usually the one who deals with the problem, but when it's just the two of us she gets irritated and says a lot of things she could have said before, some very funny and a little exaggerated, she's a good person, it's just a matter of time to get to know her haha
O sea, si hablamos de formar una amistad si, pero no para pareja, en muchos casos las mujeres como Tomoko terminan desquitando todos sus miedos e inseguridades contigo, lo digo por experiencia

Best depiction of Social Anxiety I’ve ever seen from personal experience.
is this what i sound like while talking to people idk??? 😭😭😭
Great casting. She's so adorable.
I wish I could see a drama cd or manga promo of the last volumes of how far she's come.
Very far I must say
perfect example of its so kawaii in the anime, but IRL if you're like this you just get bullied hard

just based on this video tomoko seems like a shy gentle girl... but she is not lol
💀 the only difference between us is how she even gets approached by some guys

She need hug….

@@shmok3y you're not wrong lol
@@shmok3y..... I won't say no .... LOL tho that means she'd be a little overwhelmed though
She’s like a psychotically traumatised version of Vanellope von Schweetz, I love it so much.
Tomo even if she'd awkward she is actually adorable 😂
There's always that one girl in every class.
for example me
If its especially here in north italy they're most likely the sanest or traumatized person you'd ever meet
i keep coming here everyday maybe i need help
Everything will be fine some day,, , maybe
"maybe"
you can do it! all of us can ... I hope XD ☆
I used to be just like her when I was a teenager, and I really used to relate on her at that age. 10 years later and I had my self-improvement ❤
