"My Suki ko Forgot Her Glasses," which will be adapted into an anime in July 2023, is a romantic comedy about a laid-back girl with glasses, Mie-san, who often forgets or breaks her glasses, and her slightly strange relationship with Komura-kun, a boy who sits next to her and supports her! This time, we'd like to introduce you to the laid-back heroine, Mie-san (aka Mie Ai), who often forgets her glasses!
The slightly unusual girl with glasses sitting next to me!?
The main character, Komura-kun, also known as Komura Kaede, falls in love with Mie-san, who sits next to him. Mie's real name is "Mie Ai," and she's a girl with long, blonde hair and glasses. She's always daydreaming and says off-putting things like, "Wouldn't it be cuter to abbreviate mechanical pencils to 'Pupen'?" Komura-kun falls in love with her mysterious charm.
Mie Forgot Her Glasses and Looks Cruel
Mie is extremely nearsighted, but she often forgets her glasses. When she forgets them, she squints to see things, resulting in a cruel look in her eyes. Being nearsighted and forgetting her glasses should be a real problem, but because her house isn't far from school and her laid-back personality means she often forgets them. Perhaps she doesn't really mind forgetting them.
Mie's sense of distance becomes distorted, and she approaches him at close range.
Mie's eyesight is extremely poor, so if she forgets her glasses, she can't see anything unless she gets very close. So she takes every opportunity to get closer to Komura, such as by asking him to show her his textbooks. Apparently, Komura can't even recognize Mie's face unless she's extremely close, making Komura's heart race when she unconsciously approaches him. In the story, Mie seems to forget her glasses almost every day, but in fact, she wears them more often than not.
Mie Doesn't Like Contact Lenses, and Her Eyes Always Look Bad
Mie often forgets her glasses, and sometimes wears contact lenses to school. However, she generally dislikes them because they cause eye pain and are difficult to remove. As a result, her eyes always look bad even when wearing contact lenses. She sometimes feints at Komura.
Mie has had a karmic connection to losing her glasses since she was a child.
In fact, Mie and Komura met once as children, and ever since then, Mie has been without her glasses and has had a mean look in her eyes. She didn't forget her glasses at the time; they had been stolen by a mean boy. She doesn't seem to mind too much, and her laid-back, unconcerned personality about her glasses hasn't changed.
Mie forgets her glasses even in private
Mie doesn't just forget her glasses at school; she also often forgets them when she goes out. While it's fine if she's just going nearby, sometimes she breaks her glasses when she goes out, or brings a pair of non-prescription glasses instead of a spare. Furthermore, it seems she frequently breaks her glasses or leaves them in strange places on a regular basis.
Mie uses touch and smell to check what she can't see
When Mie forgets her glasses and can't see, she sometimes uses touch, smell, and other senses. She usually touches Komura-kun to check his identity, but when she suddenly touches him, Komura-kun turns bright red and his heart starts beating fast.
Mie begins to feel a little guilty towards Komura
Mie, who causes a lot of trouble for Komura because she sits next to him, begins to feel guilty about restricting him for her own convenience. Mie tries to manage on her own without Komura's support, but ultimately ends up relying on him. As this daily routine continues, Mie's own view of Komura also begins to change.
Is Komura your father? Mie-san
Mie-san is always daydreaming and often forgets her glasses, requiring Komura-kun's care. However, it seems that her father used to look after her when she was at home or when she was younger. She sometimes mistakes Komura-kun for her father and sometimes thinks of him as a father figure when he helps her. Komura-kun himself may feel uneasy, wondering if she only sees him as a father figure, but their relationship gradually changes.
Mie-san loves aquariums and looking at aquatic life.
Mie-san loves aquariums and visits them at least once a year. She particularly loves the common octopus, making a common octopus plush toy for the school festival and reading aquatic life encyclopedias at home. When she went to the aquarium with Komura-kun, she revealed that she likes it because she can just watch without thinking about anything. For Komura-kun, who has low self-esteem and likes games because it allows him to become empty, this gives him the opportunity to realize that maybe it's okay to be that way.
Mie-san Becomes Aware of Her Feelings
At first, Mie-san only sees Komura-kun as a kind neighbor who always helps her out, and doesn't even notice what he looks like. However, as she interacts with him, she gradually begins to notice him.
At first, her relationship with Komura-kun is one of bothering him and leading him around at his own pace, but as they go out together to the aquarium and the summer festival, she begins to realize her own feelings.
