This study examines how relatable case materials affect learners by analyzing an essay written by a learner who belonged to the same university and department as the main character and who felt anxieties after reading the case material “I Wish I Had Made More Friends.” We extracted three points: 1) his thoughts about making friends, 2) the details of his anxieties, and 3) his current attitudes toward making friends. The results indicate that he proactively socialized after reading the case, overcoming his anxiety. Maintaining a balanced portrayal in case materials is important to prevent excessive personal identification and associated anxieties.
