Studying for Tests is the thirty-sixth chapter of Tomohito Oda's Komi Can't Communicate.
Summary
At school, Najimi glumly declares that they want to die, and repeats themselves when no-one asks why. Komi fearfully writes that Najimi can't die, but Najimi assures her that they're just joking. Najimi explains that the testing period starts next week, which they hate, as they would prefer to play, showing a rarely seen sadness. Najimi suggests they study together, which Tadano sees straight through. When Najimi, Komi and Tadano reach the library, Najimi is slapped on the head with a fan by the librarian, Gorimi, for their excessive noise; 3 hits and you're kicked out of the library.
Najimi, having no intention of studying, tries to make Tadano laugh, but gets their 2nd slap in the attempt. They try to entice Tadano to play Jungle (Jenga parody), which Tadano initially refuses, but surprisingly, Komi joins the game. They play until Tadano collapses the tower, and they all receive a slap each (Najimi has 3 slaps, so they are removed from the library). Komi tells Tadano that she enjoyed the game, even if she got a slap on the head. They leave both leave the library to meet up with Najimi again.
After the tests, Komi scored excellently, Najimi scored very well despite not studying (naturally smart) and Tadano scores perfectly average on all of their tests (as usual). Yadano, looking at Komi's results, forlornly confirms that Komi beat her in every test.
