It's Tadano's first day of high school and all he wants to do is blend into the background. He starts to get to know Komi, a quiet girl in his class.

To help Komi make more friends, Tadano tries to enlist the help of a talkative classmate who's friends with everyone, but they promptly turn him down.

A nervous girl named Himiko Agari's anxiety levels go through the roof when Komi starts silently staring at her in a very intense way.

During the school health checkup, competitive classmate Yadano is determined to clock better results than Komi, whom she sees as her ultimate rival.

Komi wonders why everyone starts staring at her when, like the rest of the student body, she switches from her winter to her summer school uniform.

When Tadano gets to school, he finds Komi waiting for him in the classroom. She then nervously hands him a letter.

Komi spends a lot of time getting ready for her trip to the local pool with Tadano and Najimi. Once they're there, they bump into even more friends.

It's the Obon holidays, and Komi is visiting her grandma's house. She can't help but feel a little awkward around her extended family.

It's the first day of the new semester and everyone is happy to see Komi again, but then a student named Inaka starts to follow her around.

On the school sports day, Komi isn't sure how to properly cheer for her classmates, but she does her best. Then, it's her turn to run the relay race.

The students of class 1-1 have to decide what they're going to do for the culture festival — a task they're all taking way too seriously.

At the culture festival, Najimi is up to something. They try to rope Komi and Tadano into their scheme.
