As a child, Shimizu Mokomi created her own imaginary world, talking to stuffed toys, rocks, and plants. Her ability to sense emotions in inanimate objects made her an outcast, and she stopped going to school in 5th grade. She eventually graduated through correspondence courses and spent most of her time in her fantasy world. At 20, she took a part-time job at a factory, picking out defective items. A year later, still working there, her odd behavior starts causing trouble. On her 22nd birthday, someone unexpectedly visits her. (Source: MyDramaList) Edit Translation

Reviews
Family focus
Mokomi is an eccentric girl who can experience animism. But more eccentric is her family consisting of control freak mother, passive father, outspoken grandfather, and a brother who seems normal. This drama shows the character growth of Mokomi into a more confident, and socializing person. Along with this, she discovers her true purpose, and her career. Subsequently, this also transforms her family.Yuya, the ML(?), is less of companion and more of facilitator for Mokomi. There is hardly any romance and backstory for him. One never gets to know why he considers his bicycle as friend. If it weren't for Mokomi and Yuya calling each other informally, they might have well pass as good friends. In this sense, the ending not focused about him made sense.
What was enjoyable? Mokomi's stint of having imaginary friends reminds of our own childhood days. The struggles of feeling awkwardness in socializing, and the difficulty in adapting to outside world were relatable. The consequent transformation of both her and family was good and gives off good message that letting go heals the scars of past.
What could have been better? Since focus is family, one can't complain about Yuya. But her brother scenes and transformation was compromised given the severity of his situation. Same could be said for her mother. It was hurried ending but manages to give closure to everyone.
It was a well produced show especially those animism scenes where so good. Acting was good especially Koshiba Fuka's. I hardly remember if any songs were present. There were only some bgm which was good and suitable.
Mokomi: Kanojo Chotto Hendakedo is good but wish it focused beyond family.

This is a family drama, Shimizu Mokomi is a pretty girl who she created her own imaginary world. She has this magic in her that she can talk with flowers, staffed animals, trees and other living things. Due to this, she was considered as a weird kid and scolded by people. Mokomi stopped going to school when was she in the 5th grade of elementary school. She became depressed but she eventually finished high school. At the age of her 20s she started working at a factory but it was too much for her, so she went one step further and started working as a florist at her brother's flower shop.
