Generally when this particular entry of the report cards is mentioned is to mention how "accidentally" what Hinata says about Komaeda smile sounds very romantic even when the meant reading is Hinata being disturbed about Komaeda. While I understand why people would have this opinion, I wanted to briefly explain two reasons why the romanticism of this line is clearly intentional and why the line is not just about Hinata being confused and scared about him.

1. The use and subversion of an already established romantic line

One detail that is often never mentioned when discussing this line is that it is not the only instance where Hinata says something romantically charged about Komaeda's smile and how it's clearly meant to be some sort of callback and subversion of the first line. The first time Hinata says something like that it's used to show how calm Komaeda makes him feel and how much he likes his presence, and now Komaeda's smile is used to represent Hinata's confusion towards him and how all of the things that he used to perceive as well intentioned and kind are now perceived with a malicious intent by Hinata. The purpose of the line is to represent how Hinata's feelings for Komaeda have changed since the first free time event and to tell that even if Hinata is now angered and confused, the initial attraction he felt for him is still there.

It's also worth noting that the similarity between these two lines goes beyond just being about a smile. The structure of both of the sentences is not only similar, but the two smiles are described as carefree. Another detail that makes this scene more similar is that the adjective Hinata uses to say "calms me down" in the Japanese version is magireru (紛れる) while in this context it means to get distracted from your worries, magireru also means to get too absorbed in something or distracted, which is akin to the sensation of "looking at it and not understanding anything" that Hinata describes in the report card, which practically sounds like he gets too distracted and absorbed into his smile.

2. Clarifying the context of the line

When people discuss this line, it is usually only interpreted in a vacuum, hardly even considering the context of the free time event the report card is from. The most common interpretation of this line is that Hinata relates the concept of Komaeda smiling with him talking about his beliefs, so that's why Hinata can not understand a single thing of what he's talking about. This interpretation completely ignores the scene this line was referring to. The line in the report card is clearly referring to this part where Komaeda reassures Hinata with a smile, and Hinata questions the intention behind Komaeda doing this. The line in the report is most likely referring to this interaction since this is the only part of that free time event where Komaeda smiling is mentioned, and for the way it's written, it seems to be an interaction that should be taken into account. This part is clearly not talking about Hinata being disturbed or scared about Komaeda but it is trying to convey the confusion Hinata feels about Komaeda still being kind and friendly with him even when he's supposed to be a terrible person in his eyes.

gonna be so real and share a take that would actually get me crucified if i weren’t anon: i am a hardcore komahina shipper (i am also a multishipper nobody get on my ass for the non-controversial part) like i truly believe there is genuine solid evidence for mutual komahina in canon. they are literally made for each other to me they are the love story of the ages komahina real etc etc.

that’s not the controversial part. the part i’m scared to share is that i have not do not and will not ever perceive saiouma this way. it’s like… fine. sure. whatever. i have other ppl i’d prefer to pair them up with but alright have fun. and yeah kokichi is written to at least have some level of surface level attraction to shuichi. but i sometimes see people comparing saiouma to komahina and it makes me feel CRAZY because they are not even remotely close to being on the same level. it’s like comparing fast food to high-end dining to me. i’m sorry but they’re just… not at the same quality or league to me. at all.

it makes me feel like SUCH a hypocrite bc i’ve heard ppl talk shit abt komahina going “ohh hajime shows no signs of reciprocation at all” and immediately i can pull out like 7 different instances and 5 pargraphs of analysis proving otherwise but like. i CANNOT see saiouma as reciprocal i’m sorry!!! that shit is one sided as hell!!! shuichi is confused by kokichi at BEST there is no proper chemistry there!!! hell i’d argue kokichi doesn’t actually even love shuichi that shit is infatuation at most! i’d be fine leaving it alone and minding my business but tbh the saiouma fanbase annoys me so bad that it’s become a full-on notp for me. especially fanon pregame shit it’s fine to enjoy yandere dynamics or whatever but those literally aren’t even the same characters anymore. but i will never say that on main bc i enjoy not being mauled to death by hordes of angry shippers
