Having reached almost a decade of enchanting readers, the manga Komi Can't Communicate ( Komi-san wa Komyushou Desu ) came to an end after 9 years. Created by Tomohito Oda , the title debuted in 2016 in Weekly Shonen Sunday , introducing the public to Shoko Komi, a seemingly unattainable girl.
Idolized by her peers for her beauty and reserved demeanor, Komi hid a great difficulty in communicating, which prevented her from forming real connections.
The story begins with Komi meeting Hitohito Tadano, an ordinary boy who becomes her friend and helps her achieve her ambitious goal: to make 100 friends before graduating high school. Now, after nearly 500 chapters and an exciting journey, Komi proudly leaves school, showing remarkable progress.
How does Komi Can't Communicate end?
The final chapter, 499, premiered in the most recent issue of Weekly Shonen Sunday . In it, Komi still faces challenges, such as refusing to give the farewell speech at graduation, but the ending reveals a much more confident character. Tadano, her close friend (and romantic interest), takes over the speech and receives Komi's support with every word.
However, the conclusion reinforces the manga's central message: each character, with their own unique traits, is prepared to face adulthood. Komi, who has evolved so much thanks to the support of Tadano and her friends, is now ready to face the future and share her experience with the next generation.
