Komi Can't Communicate

Everyone has challenges to overcome. No one is perfect - not even the most beautiful girl at school. That's one message of this excellent anime on the topic.

The other is that social anxiety is real problem for some people, and can be quite debilitating. Taijin kyofusho (social phobia) is not limited to just Japan, but perhaps it's more studied here.

So far I'm liking the anime, and perhaps making it humorous instead of being too serious about the subject is the right way to go.
