This seems to be an updated/revised version of this comic

I bet that megane got hounded by the girls at her former school, thus the frumpy look after the transfer.

The teacher perplexed at the end lol. The end here is even more funnier than the older version, the eraser thing is really funny to me

"The plain girl sitting next to me is actually kind of hot and cool" is not exactly the freshest premise but who doesn't love a bit of Gyaru Gay Panic? Muromaki has put out some other great stories so I'm tentatively hopeful for this.

Very nice! :D

He’s a cultural touch point in general in Korea, particularly the novel Demian. There’s a reasonable essay about it here: https://lareviewofbooks.org/blog/the-korea-blog/koreans-love-herman-hesses-demian-western-novels/

At risk of accidentally summoning project moon sleepers, it’s one of the twelve works related to Limbus Company.

I would read Behive the Woosh.

Aaaaaaand she's so completely gone, she's not even paying attention to her reputation anymore. Meanwhile, Tsuruda is playing her like a fiddle. :D
