They pretty much have a word for it already: hikikomori.


Hikikomori and NEET are different things, though it is not uncommon for people to be both and understandable for people to associate the two with one another.

Hikikomori refers to a person who is a social recluse, someone who is particularly withdrawn from society (though they may simply prefer to interact in indirect means, such as online communication). NEET is anyone not in employment, education, or training.

A hikikomori can be employed or in school and simply be withdrawn in those settings (or even do these things from home) and therefore not be a NEET. Likewise, a NEET can be socially active and outgoing.
