Recap of Komi Can’t Communicate Season 2 Episode 5

Episode 5 was divided into four parts. Part 1, “Snowmen”, showed Najimi and Tadano showing up at Shouko’s house at an ungodly hour in the morning in order to make snowmen from the fallen snow. While they did make a giant snowman, Shouko later made a smaller snowman to accompany the one Tadano had made earlier.

Part 2, "Snowball Fight”, featured Shouko and her class engaging in a snowball fight with some elementary school kids. Shouko was relegated to the children’s team to even out the numbers.

While she wasn’t of any help at first, she did win the battle for her team due to Yamai taking out everyone who threw a snowball at Shouko.

In Part 3, "Year's End”, Shouko visited her family home with Sousuke and their parents. She reconnected with her cousin Akira, and played a game of Hanafuda (a type of card game) with her and their grandmother. Despite being a novice, Shouko ended up winning the game, earning even more of Akira’s respect.

Part 4, "New Year's Day”, saw Shouko visiting the shrine with her cousin and grandmother in a traditional Hatsumode kimono. After thanking the gods for making her wish from last year come true, Shouko was forced by her grandmother to help out at the understaffed souvenir shop at the shrine.

There she met her classmate Inaka, who was at first afraid that Shouko would use her village origins against her when they returned to school. However, after seeing Shouko’s struggle with the shrine-visitors, Inaka helped her out. The former later thanked her and they struck up a friendship.
