Komi Can't Communicate #27

In "New Model," Jo finds herself stranded without her phone after a bathtime accident, leading her and her father on an unexpectedly awkward errand to the store for a replacement. With her usual digital lifeline gone, Jo must navigate the real world—and her dad’s quiet, well-meaning presence—on unfamiliar ground.

Jo and her classmates dive into a class-wide game of deception and deduction, where every player hides a secret role—only one of them is the real villain. With Osana leading the charge and Komi navigating the chaos through her new smartphone, trust becomes the most dangerous weapon in a game where betrayal could crash a mission before it even lifts off.

In "The Discussion Begins," Komi finds herself unexpectedly cast as a villain in a tense game of deception, forcing her to navigate the challenge of lying to her friends while staying true to her quiet nature. With the game in motion and trust hanging in the balance, every choice feels heavier than it should—especially when she’s the one who must pretend to betray the others.

In "Selfie, Part 1," Komi wrestles with nerves and hesitation as she snaps a series of bold selfies, each one a step closer to confessing something she’s been holding back. Just as she’s about to send them to Tadano, she pulls back—only to send him her quiet, familiar school photo instead.

In "Ribon," a determined second-year student sets her sights on becoming Komi’s closest friend—though her plans hit an immediate snag: Tadano. With quiet persistence and a touch of playful rivalry, she navigates the delicate social currents of school life, all while trying to win Komi’s trust. Written by the creator of *Komi Can't Communicate* and lettered by Kyla Aiko, the story captures the subtle, heartfelt humor of high school connections.
