now that im rereading im going a lil insane over how the ones in tadanos group are "supposedly" paired to the ones in komis ahhhhh

Mikuni and Ayami don't have puns in their names? That defeats the purpose of everyone having a personality 😔Still they are top tier best girls

It's Sekimatsu. That guy who punched Tadano in one of first chapters. Who punched Naruse not so long ago. Who was swinging the rope with Tadano when their class was jumping on sports festival.
And samurai, from Komi imperial guard. Nice to see them guys get they proper names in story.
And he has a girlfriend!

How is Najimi doing this..?

"but that also how unimportant they are in terms of the story"

Cue both of them having a fair amount of focus during this arc, becoming close friends with Komi, and appearing in later chapters.

I love seeing Naijimi in the background of all the groups.

The best thing about this story is how the whole class has agreed to be wholesome towards Komi-san even though she never talks and always has a scary expression on her face.
