After all the pantyhose-themed
captions I've written, it was inevitable that I write one about one of
my favorite manga characters, Shoko Komi. She's downright revered in
her manga, so this felt like a logical next step.
The image I used is fanart of Shoko Komi from Komi-san wa Comyushou desu, done by Koyomi Nashigaya on Twitter.
All persons depicted are (unfortunately) fictitious, not owned by me (Shoko Komi and all characters mentioned are owned by Tomohito Oda), and above the age of 18. I make no money through this image.
TRANSCRIPT:
I started wearing pantyhose as I entered high school. My mom bought a pair for me for my birthday a few months prior. She thought they'd make me look more mature--her daughter was becoming a big girl and all. Little did she--or I, for that matter--know that they would make me into a literal goddess as I put them on. No hyperbole there--I became perfect. I became intensely, profoundly beautiful, my grades immediately shot to the top of the class, and everyone came to adore me. I was flustered at first--I was a truly shy wreck before high school--but I came to realize it was also rather fun. So I put my perfected abilities to use and pretended to be a normal girl that practically everyone deified--sometimes literally!
Naturally, it was a shock for me to find out I'm a character in a manga. Even if I'm the title character, it was still a hurdle to overcome. I got over it fairly quickly though, as I found it easy to grant myself autonomy--what you would consider free will. I granted the same to my friends. They--like me--are living, breathing, sentient people, just like you. We only manifest in your world as ink on paper bound into a weekly magazine. We live simultaneously within our own universe and in Oda-sensei's mind. When something happens to us, an idea comes to his mind, and if he likes it enough, he incorporates it into the manga. I don't resent my situation or Oda-sensei. How could I? He's our creator. I enjoy my life and my friends too much to have it any other way.
Anyway, I'm running short on paper, so I'll wrap this up. I'm going to be the best manga character I can! Maybe we'll eventually be picked up by a studio and made into an anime! That would be an amazing honor!
Anyway, thanks for hearing me out. Let's keep my omnipotence and self-awareness between you and me, alright? Thanks!
