Komi Can't Communicate Chapter 461 recap

In Komi Can't Communicate Chapter 461, titled Mizuhara, a flashback to Shosuke's childhood shows him as a capable, confident 6-year-old who believes he should make friends for others instead of himself. His mother dotes on him, calling him an angel. They encounter Hayato Mizuhara, a child, and the narrator says that Shosuke Komi can do anything, so he doesn't need to communicate.

In the present, Hayato believes he's the reason Shosuke stopped smiling. He rejects Hitomi’s proposal to visit Shosuke's place but asks Shosuke to compete with him as they did once as kids. While no response came from Shosuke, Hitomi translates this as acceptance of the match.

At the neighborhood pool, older women admire Shosuke and Hayato's physiques, and Hitomi joins them in her swimwear. She trips but is saved by Hayato, though he notices that Shosuke has also moved to help her in Komi Can't Communicate Chapter 461.

Hitomi then asks why they came to the pool. Hayato recounts a childhood incident where he lost a swim race to Shosuke, angrily told him to stop smiling, and believes this caused Shosuke to lose his smile over time. Determined to mend their relationship, Hayato challenges Shosuke to a rematch. Hayato wins and offers Shosuke a hand out of the water, smiling at him as Shosuke once did.

Through Hitomi's ventriloquism, Shosuke ‘speaks’ in Komi Can't Communicate Chapter 461, conveying understanding and forgiveness. As they leave, Hayato encourages Shosuke to be happy with his girlfriend. Hitomi clarifies she’s more of an older sister figure to Shosuke.

Later, Hitomi surprises Shosuke with a popsicle to his neck before giving him one. She says she likes Hayato, though he sometimes seems to misunderstand her. She then says she might tell him the real reason Shosuke doesn't smile. Komi Can't Communicate Chapter 461 ends as Hitomi addresses the readers, saying the next chapter will be about Detective Hitomi displaying her sleuthing skills.
