How on earth did y'all miss her attempt at Toilet Humor?
Yeah, unwritten rule number one: follow all the unwritten procedures. - CamacanThe translation for chapter six
is up.
Somehow I feel the fact that she can function in society despite her neurosis should be a trope, if not an existing one. A character seems to be incredibly flaky and unstable but is not shown to have serious problems with the system. I mean, she even gets to school on time.
Maybe her situation seems so familiar because it's just a more realistic portrayal of insecurity in Real Life than we usually get from Manga, but I dunno.
No Social Skills fits fine. She can function, she's just bad at socializing.
Whose, scanning this again? I want to download all the chapters and just read everything in one go.
...a little brother should belong to his older sister, right? - Orimura ChifuyuI love this, it's hilarious, chapter 5 was my favorite and I nearly died after Tomoko's toilet humor.
I also added Closet Otaku and Headphones Equal Isolation to page.
eh? It's in /a/? crap...
...a little brother should belong to his older sister, right? - Orimura ChifuyuChotto Matte! Don't you guys think it's a bit redundant to have both Otaku and Closet Otaku tropes in one page, or at least separated?
...a little brother should belong to his older sister, right? - Orimura Chifuyu...It seems like a lot of series recently have been following in Ore Imo's footsteps and having phrases as their titles. This however is one of the few which didn't really catch my interest. :/
Is Kurokona a full doujinshi? If so, where can I read/download it?
About the manga - So is this a real life look at how otaku would be like in real life? Too bad its a girl, because I find it hard otaku girls would have absolutely no friends. Don't we all know that geeks and nerds love girls that have the hobby as they do, even just as casual friends? Plus girls are usually more well socially adjusted.

Not really, ALOT of people from 4chan say they have had exact same experiences.
Of course a majority of it is Played for Laughs but there is still truth behind it.
Its not Welcome To The NHK levels

She reads more like a normal shut-in to me(granted, one with a goal of trying to change, but still).
She seems more like an extreeeeme introvert.
The way she overthinks the simplest of interactions hits so close to home...

Just heard of this series. I think she's really cute, and am pretty shocked to find that she's basically Konata without the happiness.
Is she The Woobie? I think that would belong in YMMV.
