| Sato was not relatable because he is an asshole, it is impressive how badly he treats misaki through the show. What i love about the show the most was the summer, lonely atmosphere of it, the ost and what it intended to be, but not being sympathetic to sato sours it somewhat. Still a quality "slice of life style" of anime and for that it is likable and great |

| I enjoyed watching this it was funny asl in the beginning but in the end it became more grounded to reality Satoru and Yamazaki didn’t end up succeeding and making that hentai empire and raking in the cash even tho I would’ve loved to see it ๐คฃ and ironically Yamazaki ended up doing what was written on that paper that planned out his life and didn’t end up with his childhood friend who he loved so much instead ending up with another partner symbolizing that life goes on and that not all of our hopes will come true but it doesn’t mean we still can’t hope in the end the world will keep moving forward and it’s up to us if we decide to move with it or get left behind… |

| Well this anime was truly something. I really liked the wide cast of enjoyable characters and this ending really sealed the deal. Overall this show was nice, the story of Tatsuhiro Sato the hikikomori on the journey to getting his life back on track accompanied by highschool friends and new faces alike. The cast of characters is most definitely the highlight in my opinion and this ending which not only showed us Sato's but the others as well was nice. Though I do wish we got a little bit more of the blonde/brown hair highschool classmate of Sato and her brother. |

| @bubba460z yeah exactly!!! the episode in which Sato talks to the brother through the MMO game was my absolute favourite, it perfectly captures the main themes of the anime (and it was just really fun in general imo) |
| @Zarutaku This was a 6/10. I have no idea why it is so critically acclaimed. |

| @Zarutaku You're right. I haven't. Have you? Does this mean the vast majority of its audience are hikikomori who wanted to be saved just like this dude? |

| That was incredible, I'm so glad I decided to watch this anime. Sato and Misaki both saved each other and now with their contract signed, they can escape from the N.H.K. together. |

| I think the whole Misaki thing would've greatly benefited if it was introduced earlier. This way it felt too abrupt and melodramatic. I like the ending, Satou escaped the hikikomori lifestyle, but his new life is just mundane with a regular job. Really glad the story didn't go with something extravagant. |
| WHAT AN AMAZING EPISODE, BIG TOPIC OF SUICIDE, A SUICIDE ATTEMPT, AN ACCURATE DEPICITON OF MENTAL HEALTH ISSUES, AND A HAPPY ENDING AND JUST SO MANY EMOTIONS IN THIS EPISODE. I'VE STRUGGLED WITH MENTAL HEALTH ISSUES ALL MY LIFE AND SOMETHING TO RELATE TOO!!!!!!! I LOVE THIS EPISODE WELCOME TO THE NHK MOTHERFUCKER!!!!!!!! |
