tomoko's complexity

tomoko is a really complex character i feel like ppl don't talk about enough. most people just view her as a mentally unstable and disgusting character. but there's more to her than meets the eye. she has very obvious symptoms of anxiety, social anxiety, and possibly body dysmorphia. we can see whenever she references getting popular, her body is usually the first to come to her head. although this is normal, it's a telltale sign of body dysmorphia. her character is very interesting to me, and she really resonates with a lot of viewers and watamote enjoyers!

when I started reading the manga it reminded me of myself so much when I was in 10th grade and absolutely had no friends. all I did was pretend so I didnt look like such a loser but yeah her character has so much more depth to it than just a mentally unstable girl
