No Matter How I Look at It, It's You Guys' Fault I'm Not Popular!

Navigating the treacherous waters of high school can be a challenge for anyone, but for Tomoko Kuroki, it's a daily, soul-crushing ordeal. Convinced she's destined for popularity thanks to her extensive experience with otome games, Tomoko quickly discovers that the real world operates on an entirely different set of rules. Her attempts at social climbing invariably backfire, leading to a hilarious and often painfully relatable series of misadventures. Join Tomoko as she grapples with crippling anxiety, social awkwardness, and an unwavering belief that everyone else is to blame for her lack of friends. This sharp, comedic manga offers a unique and unflinching look at the struggles of a truly introverted protagonist trying, and mostly failing, to fit in.
