Face it, the whole le hikikomori thing is just overly prosperous bugpeople making a problem out of it. I'd rather watch anime about his otaku neighbor

No, it's not supposed to be relatable. Who told you that?
In fact in the novel the MC gets into the situation he was in due to a drug problem. That's not exactly "Every person on the street can relate" level.

It was relatable for me for those reasons, and actually helped me realize pussy is no longer worth chasing past a certain age because all the girls I ended up with were Misaki psycho cunt bitch waste of time.

>>280406930
>No, it's not supposed to be relatable
Yes, it's fucking supposed to, whatever you read about anime, you will be told how it deeply explores the topic of social anxiety, isolation and mental disorders, while in reality, either the author has no idea what they look like, or this is a hallucinations on the Disney cartoons level, which makes it hard not to drop the show right away

Oh, that explains the fake nature of the whole "drama"

Nonetheless, it was pretty damn funny and there was yummy fanservice. Only womyn care about muh representation so it doesn't matter if Satou and I don't have the same situation.

>>280406930
>drug problem
Wasn't it like dextro cough syrup? If you haven't tried that or like maybe marijuana or adderall at least once I don't know what to tell you. You're beyond shut-in failure, that's just some straight up wimpy fagboi shit.

Try watching the show jesus, the guy is a basket case even back in high school.
For the rest, the old visual novel trope from the 90's is a girl will come along into my boring life and then I'll be on my way to my new and exciting life. Most of how NHK is structured, it's a 'no way that'd work out the way you think it would' subversion of that trope.
Even granted exceptional circumstances, Satou is Satou, and the other big thing behind NHK is what sort of girl really would obsess over a nobody. It wouldn't be the perfect angel's you see in a VN either.

>>280404641 (OP)
Yes, the MC wasn't entirely relatable in most of these metrics but the NEET angle was enough for me to fully enjoy myself during the show.
I don't think there's many anime where the MC remains a NEET for most of the show.

>>280409926
I smoke marijuana with my friends regularly, and I do work and have regular life. I have never met a person that goes insane for marijuana consumption, so there is that.

>>280409718
Let me just tell you that I did notice you responded to me, but I really don't care enough to read your shitty take.

>>280404641 (OP)
Lets be more general; you thread is shit, anime / manga / novels are fiction and not meant to be a reflection of reality, other than in a parallel or for people to feel empathy (not believe your life is the same unless you are sick).

I am just sorry there is enough retards on /a/ to answer to this crap unironically.

>rewatch the anime
Do I understand correctly that you consider the guy who communicated well with the older girl, stood up for the younger ones and was in a hobby group to have communication problems? I think now I understand who this anime is intended for
>what sort of girl really would obsess over a nobody
Let me guess, she's actually a pathetic person not really[/spoiler] with daddy issues[spoiler ] as if that was ever a problem[/spoiler] and that's the reason why she's so kind to the mc and not a bitter bitch[spoiler ] very plausible [spoiler ], no[/spoiler]?

Let me guess, she's actually a pathetic person (not really)with daddy issues (as if that was ever a problem) and that's the reason why she's so kind to the mc and not a bitter bitch (very plausible, no)?

>fiction and not meant to be a reflection of reality
What an illiterate moron you are, any fiction is based on reality to some extent, in the case of an op post, the story takes place entirely in the real world, which operates according to completely identical rules, and yes, it must be completely plausible and reflect reality, you can't just rethink human psychology and say that in the NHK verse people behave like that, no one is even trying to do that except for such underage brainlets with no common sense like you

it's relatable to hikkis from 20~30 years ago. the author just wrote a story about how people like him were feeling.

>>280413158

>>280404641 (OP)
Considering that the author went hiki mode again, I'd say no.

>>280404641 (OP)

>>280414295
the author could be breeding your coke addled mother for all I care and it wouldn't change the moral or thematic substance of the story, nor would it effect the plot or even the quality of the prose.

>>280404641 (OP)
Yeah couldn't relate where were his piss bottles, his cum sock and his shit bucket?

>>280404641 (OP)
I think is more relatable for neets that are whiny bitches, the kind that don't know how good they have it. He has a friend, it's likely he had sex in high school and on top of that another girl gets interested in him.
The MC is one of those people that are unable to see the good things in their life, but i feel is not all their fault because in the end their problems are internal, they need to defeat their inner demons or mental problems. His problem was not the outside world, being able to be a neet is a privilege to begin with.

>>280404641 (OP)
No its BS with fake hiki/neet GW ist just a normie and should be painfully killed. Sex having retards would never Understand life of a neet nor it would make entertaining anime as it could be just sleep, eat, game/anime/manga, wank for years with no variety, no holes to fuck, no friends, no job just nothing every day is the same

>>280410209
>Not an argumen
y tho?

No because the author cant find the answer himself to hikki life, he still is a hikki in reality. Its a good show but the other cant even take his own advice and just lives off royalties.

barring facial scars or severe chronic disease most people look okay as long they watch their weight, groom regularly, and wear clothes that fit

>>280423516
>they watch their weight, groom regularly, and wear clothes that fit
Obviously the mc does none of this, while looking decent. It's also funny that in ep 3(or 4) he was shown with stubble as if before he had been regularly shaving for several years of neeting

Could you please stop watching anime and go die for Israel already? Fucking normalvermin.

Everytime I ask ai for anime recs, it always tries REALLY hard to get me to watch this
Watched 2 episodes and didn't care for it.

>>280411919
Sorry retard, but there's no helping you if you dont appreciate NHK. You were born too late or are too stupid
