I don't hate Ueno as much as other commenters seem to. She escalate situations until it's serious and need to be adressed. Ueno was the one treating Nishi the most like she wasn't disabled, like she was a normal person who simply had a difficulty to hear. I like her!
For one, she's been the most honest through all of the manga. Things she likes, hates, that she's a bad person, she's been super honest.
Also when she said Nishi didn't communicate, it's not that she was pointing out she was deaf. She said she didn't even attempt to tell others what she felt. Ueno was one of the first to point out/know that Nishi was fake smiling and always put the blame on herself, never defending herself like she should have.
People who are sad Yuzuru let her beat Nishi don't understand Yuzuru knows all Nishi's bulies, and that Ueno was the one who acted the most like Nishi is independant. Sure hitting Nishi was bad, even Ueno knows that, but she was prepared to get hit as well, Nishi still has arms to hit with and defend herself (definitively not saying hitting her was ok).
So while Ueno was definitively a bitch, she's one of my favorite character and I'd love to have her as a friend.
The one I actually hate is kawai. She's improved at the end of the Manga but God was she painful to watch.
Yeah same
She is so narcissistic and the sad fact is we don't even know if she's going to truly change considering how she likes to victim-blame herself.
Met this guy irl (he's actually working for an NPO) he knows anime and we had some commons interests but I have no friends and no social life so I don't know how to interact. He texted me this morning and I have no idea how to answer, how to befriend, and if I'm just being scammed (are dudes working for non-profit organisation really going far enough to meet people in cafés and stuff?)
I would really like a friend and the guy just seemed real nice. For someone afraid to talk to strangers we had quite a long conversation and I never felt anxious talking. I'm just anxious about the next steps to knowing someone.
ff
Cliché, but when talking, just be yourself. When you see him next, do a friendly greeting and maybe bring up your common interests? I get very anxious about these things as well (if you do too, the “as well” part makes sense right). Light conversation works well first off. Just make sure to smile when talking, if you do he’ll feel more welcomed and less intimidated, and look him in the eyes, but not too much. Good luck.
I normally do weird stuff; I once twerked a light post.
So good luck.
Hey there! I also have no social life and trouble with this stuff too lol I’m not sure what he texted you this morning, but usually I find that asking the person questions about his/herself really helps. It can keep the conversation going and it can give you the opportunity not to worry over what to say next. Then of course, the other person can ask you questions about yourself. So you said he knows some anime/has common interests, so maybe ask some more questions relating to that. Personally, I don’t think it sounds like he’s scamming you. If you meet him out at a cafe or something like that, you can make small talk at the start and then gear the conversation towards common interests or maybe even something new you would like to learn about him. Getting to know someone is really all about connecting with a person in different aspects or areas and learning about them in whatever way works :) Sorry if this doesn’t help at all xD just the ideas that came to mind. I hope it all works out for you!
You're right I usually get anxious. And yea Lord Bread I do weird stuff as well (too used to the weird part of the internet) so I guess it adds up to the anxiousness. Also he just texted : Hello this is Patrick (no pun it's his name) with Lil smiley. So it's weird to just answer hello?
guy: hi...
you: happy birthday?
Well if he said hi, you can say “hey” and ask what’s up or ask how he is :)
Waiter/waitress: Enjoy your food!
Me: you too!
Waiter/ waitress: ....
Me: ....
Zeffyra you totally summed up what I do under anxiety (≧∀≦) I'm the kind to answer to "paper bag or plastic bag?" with "yes"... Online I write a bit better just cause it's not as weird as lot of other stuff online...
I say reply with hello/hi, but with a little something extra. So if he wants to talk, he can make a branch topic.
Just answer back like>> Hello! How was your day??/how r u?
And then maybe try and start a conversation about anime/manga or just about life.. im not very social.. so i cant help that much... but i do talk alot on the internet.. so whenever someone says hi to me i will say " Hey! How r u? "

the dude fell in love with a geek but the geek hates him at first. then the geek realise the person he texts and find cute in mannerism is the litt. guy he hates. then they go out. it's a very cute story and i just forgot the name of it T.T so can't find it
Thank you!!! I dunno why I can always remember the story but not the title/author so I can never find them. People like you are our angels ٩(๑❛ᴗ❛๑)۶
Each time I see a character get a makeover they always look different yet good and like... Each time I try new clothes I just look like a different brand of potatoes... Ishimori looking cute tho.
Agreed! And then it really sucks when you find a cute outfit, but it doesn't suit your body type and you actually do end up looking like a bag of potatoes...
Luckily, I don't go shopping for clothing but maybe once or twice a year, so I don't get super depressed about not finding anything that's cute and looks good on my body.
And that magic makeover after taking off glasses ╥﹏╥. While, after taking over my glasses , i'm only going from o.o to -.-...
'off, not over :)
