none of Watamote's characters undergo the kind of growth mandated in creative writing and self-help; Tomoko is still awkward even after making so many friends. but their respective worlds are irrevocably widened over time. this life is what it decides is worthwhile and it fills me with determination

afterwards, there's no real conclusion – as in reality, things just kind of fizzle out. Koharu is still talking smack several chapters later. she's lost two friends and gained one and our characters haven't developed at all. how beautiful it all is

the arc has a normal-curve structure: it begins uneventfully with Koharu intrigued by a classmate eating alone. in the middle, the dramatic incident where her existing friend group breaks apart; the only thing they had in common was badmouthing people, so it was inevitable and Koharu knew this

the early chapters have Tomoko preparing to produce a film with her class. suddenly the PoV shifts to Koharu and kills all the momentum, you're a coward if you don't love this. we've seen Koharu before but not as a prominent character, and she's spent most of her time saying mean things about others

i think very highly of Watamote. it's funny as heck but also i've seen few works that approach its verisimilitude in depicting the flow of life. i re-read vol 20 recently and it really exemplifies what the manga does so well

umamusume was invented by Rose English in 1975. this is why you go to the art gallery

finished watching the avatar cartoon for the first time. if you've read two fantasy novels before i don't think it's anything you haven't seen already but it's well written for what it is. infuriatingly many of the best characters have little screentime but that's par for the course

Steve (the northern lights) from Wensleydale. Looks much better on a phone, IRL it’s just a marginally different shade of sea.
