the old NHK topic got destroyed due to the forum rollback so i'll start a new one. hopefully the original poster doesn't mind.

Plot Summary: Tatsuhiro Satou, 21 years old, thinks that everything that happen around him is a conspiracy. He figure out who is behind it all: The NHK, an evil secret company. “When you think anime, you think otaku. When you think otaku, you think people that dislike other people. Those people become hikikomori (people who shut themselves in)”. So Satou manage to uncover the plot of The NHK (stands for Nihon Hikikomori Kyōkai), after three years of shutting himself in (and rapidly approaching the fourth). In reality, he is nothing more then a NEET (Not in Employment, Education or Training), desperately in need of a cure from that ‘disease’. He want to break out from the curse, but going out and getting a job is frightening enough for him. That is until he gets selected for a ‘project’; it is a plan to help hikikomori like him in facing the reality of this world.

anyway, this is a pretty good manga. it's really crazy and hilarious but mentions a lot of serious issues at the same time. the anime is a bit tamer but i have more faith in it after watching episode 3. it also has the most insane ED ever. i love it.

This is one of my favourite series. I can relate to the main character on so many levels and the show captures both comedy and drama with honesty. I love it. To this day, I can't find another similar Anime series. The novel is also one of my favourite books (obviously).
The only thing that makes sense about life is death.

I think there was already a thread on this series. Just that it didn't have too much response.
