About The Girl I Like Forgot Her Glasses
The Girl I Like Forgot Her Glasses (Suki na Ko ga Megane wo Wasureta) is a gentle 2023 romantic comedy anime adapted from Koume Fujichika's manga. It follows Kaede Komura, a soft-spoken first-year high school student who has fallen head over heels for his deskmate, Ai Mie. There is just one persistent problem: Mie is hopelessly nearsighted and constantly forgets her glasses, leaving her squinting through a blurry world and leaning ever closer to Komura just to make out faces, handwriting, and the board at the front of the room.
What results is a warm, low-stakes comedy of proximity. Because Mie cannot see clearly, she drifts into Komura's personal space without a second thought, reads his notes over his shoulder, and trusts him to be her eyes throughout the school day. For the shy, easily flustered Komura, every accidental closeness is a small heart-stopping crisis, and his attempts to stay composed while quietly looking out for her form the tender heart of the series. The humor is sweet rather than sharp, built on misread signals, blushing silences, and the everyday rhythms of two classmates slowly growing closer.
Produced by studio GoHands and airing from July to September 2023, the show leans into a cozy, unhurried slice-of-life mood with an emphasis on the pair's deepening bond. As the school year unfolds and a few friends and classmates enter the picture, Komura and Mie inch from awkward deskmates toward something more, making The Girl I Like Forgot Her Glasses a soft-spoken charmer for fans of wholesome school romance.
