How good is NHK ni Youkoso!? Is it worth while anime to watch?

If you want to kill yourself have at it

so its good?

Anime isn't worth watching in general.

The manga is better, funnier but also more depressing than the anime. Seriously, the anime is light-hearted in comparison.

Wrong, your opinion is really shitty

It's very good. Favourite anime.

No, fuck off.

You time is worthless, do whatever.

do it, it will remind you of your own pathetic life

I read the manga novel and watched the anime its good

The worst part about welcome to the NHK is not being able to find another show like it. If you do watch/read it I would wait at least a year between each adaptations.

novel > manga > anime

I thought the manga and the anime were both equal just different. The novel was good but it was too short.

yeah like your generic shool girl slice of life "fall into tsundere, genki childhood friend and a quiet one pandering with a retarded dickless self insert as a mc" is worth watching. ur just garbling generic garbage like half of the anime fanbase in general

It's not great.

NHK is amazing. I couldn't say I had a favourite until I watched it.

rec threads belong on lurk for 2 years before posting

I've read the novel, read the manga and watched the anime. All fantastic.

I watched this once when I was 17, and again when I was 25. It was like a completely different show, it seemed to transform from a fun comedy that I was completely separated from to an all-too-real and depressing retread of the life I lived in those 8 years.

That's what time does to a person.

time is just a scale though

Yeah, thats true, i watch tatamy galaxy and its something like nhk, im not saying that are similar, just that they are depressive and take the same "topic" but aproach in a different way. Yeah OP you need to watched both

It's actually amazing. I just finished it last week and miss it so much. It's no where near as depressing as people say and all the characters are lovable, not to mention it's pretty easy to follow and has a great story about changing yourself for the better as seen across all the characters.

Check it out, you won't regret it.

This OP, but do it this order though; Anime, Manga, Novel.

If you read the manga and novel after watching the anime you will read the lines using the characters voice from the anime, it fits well.
Besides the manga is better than the anime and the novel is better than both.

it's a masterpices. easily in the tops 5 best anime of the 00's.

Speaking as someone who was told not to waste their time on it: no, not really. It's not particularly good or particularly bad.

It was fine as something to watch to pass the time but there's nothing especially compelling about it and it has 0 closure. Spoiler tags used for their intended purpose for once: The protagonist is still hopeless, home bound and paranoid at the end even though he shows brief signs of recovery during the series, the project me undertakes with his neighbor/friend amounts to nothing and that character gives up on all their dreams to go back home to their farm in the country and get hitched, both of the girls/love interests are still fucked in the head except one of them finally stops toying with the protag's affection and gets knocked up by another guy.

It was great. Fuck this dude:
Opening is GOAT and the show itself can be quite fucking depressing at times but it was a great watch. If the themes apply to you, it may be too real at times, but it's also enjoyable to just watch some fucked up people go about their shitty lives while trying (albeit not trying that hard) to get better. You root for them.
Worth watching

Also a question to those who have watched: would a Pururin ringtone for my phone be too autistic?

Did we watch the same show?

>It's no where near as depressing as people say
yeah, that kind of just became a thing as time passed, not really depressing we just kind of like it more when we see it that way

Its a 10/10 anime
It changed my life.

Read the manga and then spend 3 days in bed thinking about killing yourself.

He's a normalfag. NHK is a normalfag filter.

Way to fucking miss the point.

I have a series of depression block shows I watch around this time of year. Usually it is Texhnolyze->Lain->Haibane Renmei->Kino's Journey (Not too depressing, but I need something less depressing to not want to die too badly)->NHK.

Jesus christ are you me? I watched this shit when I was 19 or 20 and now I'm watching it again 25 and feeling the same way.

just watch it you nigger. its amazing.

youll like it unless youre a total normie or chad.

The show had the most relatable main character ever which put me into a weird state of laughing my ass off and becoming very depressed at the same time.

hide your power level

>watch this
>supposed to be depressing
>tfw too content with being a worthless piece of shit to be sad

I want to be depressed but I can't

are you sure you're not depressed about the fact that you can't be depressed?

user just wants to fit in.
