I finally started getting hooked on the series! It's a great series for an older audience of anime/manga! I started with the novel first discovering that it had an amazing story plot and I got into the manga. The manga is really good but the Anime was the best. It was so colorful. It's a true inspiration for any hikikomori. (I wonder if there are any in the US?!)

So has anyone heard of the series?
Did you read the novel/manga/anime?
Did you like the series?
Whose your favorite character?

I've only read the manga, but I want to watch the anime
eventually. But the covers on the DVDs are so dirty, lol.
I would never be able to walk up to a clerk and buy them. >__<

But anyways, it's very interesting and funny. But it's
also sad because a lot of it is very true. And yes, there
are really hikikomori in the U.S., I know one. xD

I too would buy the anime but I know I'd never get passed to pay for it! (since I'm not over the age for the ratings of it!) I'll probably buy it online or on the website since I don't have to get the awkward stare from the people! haha.

Hikikomori in the US? I'd love to meet one sometime. I might be considered one but I only go outside to hang out with my girlfriend. haha. I feel so sorry for Satou but I love realistic animes/manga series. They always have the biggest impact.

Yeah, that's a good idea. :0 Maybe I'll buy it online when
I get money around Christmas. [I wouldn't want
to force my dad to buy it, imagine the stares he'd get]

Yeah, but I think it's better now that he got a job.
You have a girlfriend, so I don't think you're one. :'D
And I agree. Realistic anime, especially if it
relates to you, can leave a lasting impression.

I turn hikikomori a lot...
I heard the manga was a lot better and even a bit disturbing compared to the anime though? So I really need to get it. I'm up to like episode 12 of the anime.
