It's been 10 years and there is STILL no anime as real or brutally honest as Welcome to the NHK. How did this anime change your life?

>How did this anime change your life?
It didn't. I'm still the same loser I was 10 years ago.

Made me realize watching NHK was a waste of time, it wasn't that good desu

His life turned out ok in the end.
You're still doing the same thing you were doing exactly 11 years ago.

>His life turned out ok in the end.
Sato was still miserable in the end and Misaki probably abandoned him after going to college.

This. Nothing ground-breaking.

>as real or brutally honest
Except girls like Misaki don't exist. There aren't any cute girls who will randomly cling to losers, losers will perpetually be lonely sacks of shit, even if they choose to become wageslaves.

I've never been anything close to a hiki or a NEET, and I've never had a problem facing my issues, seeking resolution, or changing myself.

So NHK did nothing for me.

Did the anime leave out the bit where satou almost died because misaki left him tied up in his room for a week with no food or water?

Manga was far better.

except misaki didn't even try to help him, she made him feel like shit more often than she offered any help.

>wageslaving will set you free and you will be more happy than being a neet
HAHAHAHAAhahhaha...hahahah....ha........

It did, in general it's a lot more innocuous. Sato doesn't do drugs, Misaki is nicer, etc...

It's a mediocre to bad show overrated because it's critical of its target audience

>he thinks that was the moral of NHK's story
it was more something like...you will remain as you are as long as you aren't forced to change

It didn't say that. It just said that hikis only exist as long as conditions allow it, and without outside intervention it comes down to two options
>work and live
>don't and die
I prefer my wagey life over my NEET life but I guess it depends what kind of job you get

>that random faggot in the mmo who literally cried because he didnt want to be a neet
>all of the MC's conspiracy shit and mental illness
>both of them basically ride off in the sunset looking happier than before
>it wasnt saying being a neet sucks

/thread

it sucked for them but I don't think anyone doubts there are comfy neets out there

it's just not available for all of us

Was hyper self pleasure even in the anime?

Isn't that exactly what WttNHK suggested would happen, though?

He was alive and supporting himself. That's a pretty average life, misery included. Misaki was never important and just a friend at best so who cares what she does.

>hikikomori = neet
yep i took the bait

Satou was living alone as a college dropout in and hadn't spoken to anyone in a year, living entirely on the dime of his parents.

You're obsessing over your perfect 2D waifu when this jealous 3D thot walks in and starts pretending to be your waifu. What do you do?

Of course its not available for all of us, but who the FUCK would want to be a wageslave. Its literally worse than hell working, everyday being cucked by faggot shit tier bosses who somehow manage to be even more retarded than your coworkers. All the time you want the higher up's sit around and jack each other off and do nothing all day while making 50x more than you.

Wageslaving is the ultimate hell and there is no escape from it until you have done your time in it.

Ya, I think any guy with bad social skills and average looks would much rather stay cooped up in his room playing video games and watching anime all day. That's literally the best possible lifestyle imo. Whenever I go out in public it's just nonstop suicidal thoughts, but when I come home I can finally feel at peace with the world.

>literally the only other person he interacts with
>invests in her, helps her to study for her entrance exams
I really don't think it's that simple.

The hilarious thing is the actual author of NHK became a NEET again after writing it and now lives off the royalties. You can't make that shit up.

watch the higher ups*

>author of NHK became a NEET again after writing it and now lives off the royalties.

Lucky bastard

>NHK became a NEET again after writing it and now lives off the royalties.
Of course he would, anyone whos actually been a neet knows the normalfag wageslave life is pure shit.

...

Misaki didn't really help him in the end. When he could no longer to afford to be NEET he had to get off his ass on his won.

>lives off royalties
Who the fuck is still buying/watching this garbage

>he thinks im a neet
Nah just like the MC I had to start wageslaving, I wish I could be a neet again

>tfw my absurdism stems from this

I feel the need to ask nowadays. Unironically?

Is this what hikis will all become in the end?

they become maggot food user

Hes still posting on Sup Forums after 10 years, what do you think user?

a challenger appears.

Sato or Misaki, which one was the most fucked up?

>had a friend who got caught in a pyramid scheme and i had to help him get out of it
>have a friend who is a office worker who takes a lot of antidepressants
>i used to try and make money of mmorpgs
This show has something for everyone

Being higher up doesn't mean you get to fuck around all day. Speaking from watching my dad work himself half way to hell.

Kuzu no Honkai aired earlier this year.

It's been 10 years and there's STILL no bluray remaster, all the copies I find on nyaa are 480p

which sucks, when I read NHK I related hard to being a reclusive loner with drug habits, I mean I can hold a job but life doesn't really make me feel anything like drugs do.

Thats because you dad isn't "higher up" and is just the faggot boss over the lowly plebs.

That would have been impossible to air on Nip TV back then. Might still be impossible now honestly.

not to mention, they toned down satou's porn addiction
in the manga, satou had filled his hard drive entirely with pizza

it was good for screenacps

...

>the honeybee stings.jpg

Which is best sub group for this? ephemera only has 1 episode on nyaa

Is this worth a watch as an ex-NEET

How is wageslaving supposed to make you happy? You can buy more pointless shit, yay. Even fullfilling and actually useful, meaningful job can leave you burned out, it's better to stay a NEET if you have no talents or a drive to learn. But no, the uber rich will lose a couple of dollars a year if you do that, that's a no-no.

>Why would someone wants to be a Hikikomori ?

These words on that last episode hit me in the face.

That's the whole point. Being a NEET/hikikomori is a *luxury.*

Please user, don't remind me of such things.
>tfw

Everyone would be a NEET if they could. Once you no longer have support, it's not an option. You work or die. Life is probably going to suck regardless of whether you work or not, because your mind will always invent ways to make you suffer, because we evolved that way and suffering is biologically useful.

>Everyone would be a NEET if they could
Untrue

Actually, yeah, you're right. I might even take a part time job just to feel like I have some sort of societal worth. I'm sure many people would aspire to be something greater, but MOST people would choose to be NEETs if their living conditions and disposable income were enough to live comfortably.

Many people would be NEET *if* they had the money to live comfortably. Without it just wears down on people and builds stress as there is little to no security for the future.

Even then a large number wouldn't simply because they wouldn't know what to do with themselves. There would also be many who wouldn't because they want to do what they perceive as "good" or beneficial to their community, the world at large, etc.

The idleness of long term NEETdom can be daunting, many people would find something to do even if the money isn't a factor.

>How did this anime change your life?
It made me live in horror of its prophecy.

Just bought the whole NHK ni Youkoso! manga yerterday.

...

...

but when do I get my wizard powers

...

...

...

It was probably the best comedy anime of 2017

Fuck off with this self righteous blogshit. If people want to fail then let them fail.

...

>he thinks he can help anyone
>he thinks these have any power at all

>If people want to fail then let them fail.

Better than #prayfor/a/

no-one chooses to fail

I do, faggot. There's one example. You are another, as you browse this website alongside myself and many others.

Post moar faggot

Sounds like a lie you tell to comfort yourself you double faggot.

>doesn't

Other anime are real. You're just so pathetic they don't apply to you.

Did you forget about watamote.

So you think you're better than me nigger? Because you're so deluded that you think you can't stop yourself from failing and blame """uncontrollable""" forces for your failure? I'd tell you to kill yourself but I'd rather see you suffer more.

...

I didn't say that.

...

You implied it faggot. Now acknowledge that I'm right. Acknowledge that I, and many others, choose to fail.

>tfw this thread inspired to me rewatch NHK while I delay doing my college stuff

...

It didn't. It told me how to change my life and I continued being a lazy worthless sack of shit.

if you choose to fail it's b/c in your internal cost benefit analysis failure is better than not failure therefore it ceases to be failure but rather success

I find it harder to feel bad for Tomoko compared to Sato/Misaki. She just generally seems like a horrible person.

It allowed /r9k/-tier posts on Sup Forums.

While you're right in that regard, I'm talking about what others would consider to be failure. That version of "failure" is what I want and what I choose to be.

...

moar

Shut up. Let this thread die.

Basically people have no idea how to be NEETs.
I've been one for 2-years now (not my longest strip, which was 4 years).
Basically, all you gotta do is fill up the time you'd that work/school would consume (8-10 hours per day) with something active.

Go to gym, pedal your fears away, sauna at least three times a week, winter swim in the lakes when it's cold enough, visit your friends and families and maybe do something for them (like fixing something they're too lazy to do).

Just be active all day everyday, don't let the mellow stagnation get you and never ever wait for "motivation" to appear or giving a shit about you.

never give up etc
