Description
V.2. It's time for the national health exam at Itan High, and the excitement of eye exams and height measurements have fanned the flames of competition for the unremarkable Makeru Yadano.

As the epic battle heats up, how will Komi hand her first rival when she's barely made her first friends?
Description
V.3. Summer is about to begin, and Komi would love to be able to spend the long, hot vacation days hanging out with her friends.

Thankfully, Tadano always seems to know how to help her calm down.
Description
V.4. School is out for summer, and Komi is still getting used to this strange new world of having friends.

Description
V.6. Komi and her friends had an eventful cultural festival, so Najimi suggests they all go to karaoke to finish off the day with a song.

Description

But then she's assigned to be buddies with two girls she doesn't even know. Is Kyoto ruined, or will Komi be able to make new friends all on her own?
Description
V.9. Valentine's Day is a total minefield for people with communication disorders, but this year Komi has a secret weapon to combat the stressful holiday--friends. Armed with homemade chocolates, Komi is ready to give Tadano a Valentine's gift. At some point. Before the day is over. She swears.
Description

Komi has leveled up.

But when a sudden storm strands Tadano and Komi in a deserted cabin, things turn serious. How will they avoid catching colds with only one blanket to warm them?
Description
V.12. Exam season has crash-landed on the students of Itan High, and when they're not getting kicked out of the library for exceeding the legal decibel levels, Komi and the gang are dreaming of the coming summer break. With more friends now than ever before, Komi's modest vacation to-do list quickly becomes a recipe for delightful summer shenanigans.
Description
V.13. Komi's family is hosting a guest, and the standoffish Rei is really putting Komi's friendship skills to the test. But Komi sees a bit of her old loneliness in the child and won't give up on making a connection, even if she has to chase Rei all over town to do it.
Description
V.14. Komi and her brother, Shosuke, are in the country visiting their grandmother, and even the company of their younger cousin Akira can't save them from one dismal fact--they're bored.
