Nico Tanigawa

Director

Manga author credited for Watashi ga Motenai no wa Dou Kangaetemo Omaera ga Warui! (WataMote), the source of a 12-episode anime adaptation.

Creator credited for the manga that inspired the 12-episode WataMote anime. Themes in reviews highlight the protagonist Tomoko's loneliness, the interplay of comedy and tragedy, and the work's psychological slice-of-life realism. The review notes the anime was (at the time) unreleased in Italy and viewable online with subtitles.

The available review interprets Nico Tanigawa's WataMote as a deceptive slice-of-life that shifts from laugh-out-loud comedy to deep, tragic introspection. The reviewer highlights Tomoko's loneliness and the show's psychological realism. The piece concludes by calling the anime a "small masterpiece."

For:Fans of slice-of-life and dark-comedy anime; readers interested in psychological, coming-of-age stories.
