Komi Can’t Communicate Season 2 Episode 4: Release date, what to expect, and more

Komi Can’t Communicate season 2 episode 3 focused mostly on Tadano rather than on Shouko as it usually does. The episode not only developed his character further, but also established why he did indeed belong in Itan High, a school where absurd or specific quirks in personality and character were prized.

While he might be completely average in terms of academics or outward appearance, his quirk lay in his uncanny ability to read people’s thoughts by understanding their thought process.

Episode 3 recap

Season 2 episode 3 began with Tadano giving Yamai and Nakanaka a masterclass on deciphering Shouko’s various expressions and reactions to things and guessing what she was thinking. While neither of them managed to read her thoughts correctly, the segment ended on a happy note with Tadano, Shouko, Nakanaka and Yamai hanging out and having tea together.

The episode also featured a sequel of the boys’ fantasies in season 2 episode 2 as they imagined what dates would be like with each of the girls in the class. This time, the scenarios began with Onemine, and moved on to Otori.

Finally, the much-awaited scenario for Shouko was narrated, but the scenario turned out to be set during feudal Japan with Shouko as the wife of a samurai, defending her husband against assassins.

Tadano’s people-reading powers shone once more as an awkward Katai tried and failed to invite Tadano to have lunch with him, hoping to deepen their friendship. But the latter had already found his cue and called out to Katai with the intention of having lunch together. Some equally awkward and hilarious moments followed as Katai attempted to follow the tips mentioned in a book for hostesses to try to establish a comfort zone.

The segment ended with Tadano inviting a petrified Shouko, who had followed them out of concern for Tadano, to have lunch with them. Najimi refused to let Tadano reveal Shouko and Katai’s similar communication issues to each other, stating that it would be more interesting.

The final segment of Komi Can’t Communicate season 2 episode 3 began with Shouko’s endeavors to buy roasted sweet potatoes. But the real highlight of the segment lay with Tadano as he began musing over his feelings for Shouko, and went on a bike ride in an attempt to clear his head.

As fate would have it, he ran into Shouko herself, who gave him a sweet potato and he asked her to go out with him during the winter holidays, which she shyly agreed to.
