(2006) FL81 (2/5) https://nefariousreviews.files.wordpress.com/2017/01/welcome-to-the-nhk-featured.jpg?w=672&h=372&crop=1 NHK is about a college dropout who became a shut-in one day, and spent years in the state. During this time, he has grown to believe in various conspiracy theories, the main one being the Nihon Hikikomori Kyokai (NHK), an organization behind the spread of the hikikomori culture that devastates our main character, Satou, and many others in Japan. But one day he happens upon a meeting with a high school girl who seeks to reinstate Satou into society. Satou agrees, and so begin the misadventures of a few loveable losers trying to figure their lives out. Satou is a pretty fantastic main character. I think anyone whos been depressed and felt the need to slack off on their life can relate to him. He doesnt so much as wallow in self-hate like so many other characters do, but he instead believes himself to be a victim of society, creating all kinds of excuses as to why he hasnt gotten his life together, which is a far more realistic point of view to take. I was in high school when I watched this, so I actually just thought Satou was an unlikable dumbass. But after somewhat experiencing the faults he had personally, albeit nowhere near the extent to which they affected him, I can definitely see the beauty in the story. Its a show that I havent watched in a while, but Ive always enjoyed it. But after understanding the more complex themes it tackles, I look back on it a lot more fondly now more than ever. I definitely want to watch it again, though there is an absolute ton of fluff. See, the show is 24 episodes long, and is based on a 200-page book. You hit all the main themes the novel is relaying, but the anime takes some liberties in adding a ton of characters, stories, events, etc. I think, if youre looking for something more personal, the book is the way to go. The author based it on his own troubles, so it feels pretty special, all things considered. Its really compact and theres never really a dull moment, since everything comes together nicely. The anime is still wonderful, though. Its definitely higher on comedy, but it adds in some pretty good stories that serve to develop the main characters in interesting ways. You can't really go wrong with either! The manga sounds pretty dumb though. --- https://imgur.com/l7xxLh1 PSN/Steam - RoboQuote ; NNID - TazzyMan <cite>tazzyboyishere posted [p:901352163] in Tazzy Rank... [t:76582456]...</cite> <quote>11.
