How does science explains the fact that Tomoko isn't meant to be attractive in any way yet she still manages to look like a qt3.14 you'd want to cuddle with all day?
No.241
Because Anime tend to be aesthetically pleasing, however her brother once said she was normal looking which would mean it's not that she is unattractive, but that she isn't interesting looking or show that there is more to her.
No.242
>>241But she still looks qter than any normalfag girl in her school to me. Maybe it's because I have a thing for black hair + green eyes. 'Exotic' would be an appropriate term for her appearance. She just didn't had any luck to find anyone with non-pleb tastes who is able to appreciate her type of beauty yet I think.
No.243
it's her face.
humans recognize eyes + faces faster than the other body parts, so they get priority. her face isn't marred by anything (except bags in some cases). no acne, scars, asymmetry or anything seriously detrimental
No.245
>>243I think her dark eye circles look cute as well. It doesn't look gross like IRL eyebags do, it's kinda like a permanent eyeliner.
No.247
>>242Normalfags stick to normalfag taste and other introverts tend to stick to 2d or are too scared to talk. Another thing to know is that the Japanese favor intelligence and athletics and throughout the show has shown neither to her classmates. Looks are just a plus in Japanese schools, so since she is average to the Japanese and shows nothing else besides shyness, she is unappealing. You got to look at it from a irl perspective to get a understanding where this Anime gets its material from and why the boys aren't drooling for her.

>>249I'm explaining why she is unattractive in the show, not my fault you can't handle the banter.

>>245>>243Please. Eyebags are a sign of being driven, worldly, dedicated, and obsessed.
They are cute.

She's just average, but she's too much a a recluse to be wanted by other people

>>239The japanese don't fuck anything without at least 2 jobs

>>239Because she's the result of a dude author writing down his past experiences but showing them happen to a girl because he can.
No.395
>>394>you will never protect her smile No.405
>>394in the manga author always depicts himself as a dude. Maybe there was some other context to it, I dunno
No.407
>>405I think the way it works is that she is the author, comes up with the script and such, and theres a dude who is the illustrator. I know for a fact its 2 people doing it, and at least one of them is a girl
No.415
>>407I think you got it the wrong way round
The writer is a dude, and the illustrator is a girl.

science has gone too far
No.654
>>241This, Tomoko doesn't have any real qualities actually standing out for normal people, because they don't know how hard she's trying.
No.655
>>654I remember a friend and I watched ep 1 of Watamote and we both had the realization at the same time that she hasn't actually talked to anyone or done anything, really, throughout the whole episode. She literally goes to McDonalds and her brother sees her putting on a weird face and THAT'S ALL. Yet all that dramatic music and in depth monologues. She has a wild imagination for sure.
No.657
>>655It shows that really she could have friends and have a social life, only problem is her actually talking to someone and not being so cut off from irl. Of course that would mean she loses the very quality of the Mokocchi we all know and love. We don't want her to have a life now can we, /tomoko/?
