Its more sad that there is actually a reason why she stopped pursuing employment. That goddamn company who did a harassment/stress interview to her should get bankrupt. Idc if it was just her hallucination or if it was real but the fact that it made her feel hopeless really represents how harsh their country's society

What I love about this manga is it’s relatability. This is how the NEET life feels for me. Not wanting to go outside. Constant nostalgia to how great things where. Not really “lazing” but doing hobbies that I don’t think lead to a job. And the constant knowledge that I don’t enjoy “normal” life. Rather, I enjoy but despise being a NEET.

Don't worry even if you get a job, it's going down hill from here. Office drama, unpaid overtime, relocation to random cities, shallow interaction with co worker. Choosing between: sticking to your moral compass and standing up for something VS throw away your principles and personality to not get fired from work and going hungry. So many terrible things happen because "I'm just following orders" They go home like nothing happened and do it again tomorrow.

If you are going into a field that is high paying like 40k+ a year have references for what you’ve done in life so far that pertains to the job. Also know some people who work in said field that can verify your ability. If you don’t have any of that better start working on it ASAP or you’ll just leave it up to chance since most companies, that are career driven, require stupid amounts of experience for “entry level positions” that are unobtainable unless you’ve been in the game since you’ve been born.

I think this manga explores the external pressures that lead to depression and how, given enough time, those can become permanently internalized in a vicious positive feedback loop, whereas something like Welcome to the NHK depicts the internal pressures that lead to depression and how those become externalized in the same feedback loop. Two different approaches for the same phenomenon, although obviously Neeko's is more comedic and ultimately hopeful than NHK's.
@spoony8485

I haven’t read the manga, but from the description Sydney gives it seems, in comparison to welcome to the NHK, it takes a more realistic approach. Where neeko is living as a NEET and no progress is made, it’s more or less just a microscope view into someone’s life. Whereas Welcome to the NHK focuses on progress (or lack thereof) and holds a much more nihilistic view at times. more or less screaming at you “do not live the this if I you can help it!” While also giving a view into a NEET’s life.

After she become NEET, she start got too comfortable in her zone for long time to the point when she hunt a job she got PTSD from previous work experience.

Sydney why? Why did you trigger these long repressed memories in me? I read this series once a few years ago back when my depression was not well managed whatsoever, and while it was a super relatable experience it hurt like hell. This series was way too realistic and well done, which on one hand is good because NEET-dom is usually not a good thing because as you said, it often leads to a lot of self ridicule and depression and that needs to be better explained as opposed to romanticized in the media, but it still hurts to read. The picture at 6:29 man.... It hurts in a way that I think only people who have dealt with depression and feeling like they've wasted years of their life can truly relate to.

I just read the first 14 chapters, or 2 volumes. God this is painful. Especially since it’s frighteningly close to my current situation. I’m literally the same age. The only difference is my much more understanding and supportive parents. However, that also adds to my feelings of guilt of them in being unable to perform. (They kind of are killing me with kindness, just like Neeko’s dad is.) Also: my autism makes every stage of the problem more difficult than it already is.

Ceaseless rejection has certainly led to me feeling like I'm not good enough to succeed at many points, and as I continue with finishing up college it's something I hope to overcome to find the success I desire. I don't want to end up in a position of constantly pursuing paths that all end in failure. Yet sometimes it feels impossible to escape that cycle. All the while, the few friends I have are far more experienced in their respective areas of expertise, finding their own path in life with ease. A relatable situation like that of this manga is really helpful I feel, I've certainly used stories to call myself out for being too hung up on the past instead of continuing to push forward. I hadn't heard of this series before, but I'll need to look into it.

This is one of the mangas that really messes with me on how relatable it is, the fears of recruitment hell, believing you're not good enough, and the nostalgia of wanting to go back to simpler times in your past where you didn't need to worry about adulthood. And it's a real shame the Neeko vtuber didn't keep making videos when the height of vtuber popularity started to rise, really felt that it was a missed opportunity to make this manga REALLY popular. But then again, maybe it's fitting in a way, we all give up halfway when there are opportunities to be had in front of us.

It really hit how it feels to feel like a failure because you aren't doing anything with your life. The shame of watching your friends and family pass you by, the anxiety of the job hunt, the dread that comes when you eventually have a job, the apathy of not wanting to do things and the self hatred of knowing you shouldn't feel that way.

This really hit a note with me. I can say I won't read this for the fact it rings true too much with my own life, but that feeling of failure after constant rejection in the work you want or just lack of opportunity cause of your location...I know that feeling too well. Locking up in ones room and finding old memories of a better simpler time. I could just add more to that and yes, it's definitely worse that just that. But instead I'll say, I make a conscious effort to remind myself of what I have and the people in my life instead of what I'm lacking. Taking control of what I can keeps my mind off what I can't. To everyone else in that dark situation within yourself. It does get better and it can get better. It starts with a choice within you, and single baby steps after that. Reach out when you have to and do what you can, not what others expect.

I swear this manga hits too close to real life - I feel her character I was always very good in school, had good grades and was a child parents can be proud of. When at the end of the last years I got very depressed and the feeling of knowing of what I am was capable of and now feeling totally useless. Eversince I graduated, I never had any luck with work. Rejection, harrassment, bullying, mental breakdowns have drown me down to this point I am right now. Being released this october from the hospital from my last panic attack, I am still being in constant state of tiredness and the frustration of my own being. I really don't know what to do with my life anymore. I just drank alcohol today to get drunk to numb the pain. However I hate liquor and threw up 2 hours later ... now I am sitting in my living room watching youtube videos instead of sleeping because the silent night brings up my anxiety of the future.

A small but interesting point: the Japanese pronunciation is niiko. I haven't read it but I think her name is a reference to the Japanese-english word NEET (Not in Employment Education or Training) which is pronounced as niito in Japanese. As a result, I think the main Japanese title should be pronounced as niiko... instead of neeko... since you can see on the Japanese title it's written as ニー子... I guess I could understand the motivation for pronouncing her name as Neeko in English, but it still feels a little weird for me.

For some reason all romaji versions of the title are spelt "Neeko", which next to the rest of the Japanese words in the title you would want to pronounce it neeko (neigh-ko). But it's meant to be read niiko (knee-ko) like you mentioned. Very confusing when written like that in the romaji title.

If you like this I recommend NHK Ni Yokoso (Manga 2002, 40 chap.), one of my favorite mangas. It also has comedy and NEET but doesn't god that deep into that because talks about mental issues in general. And since it's about being lost in life in so many different ways it turns to be a pretty hard recommendation. As the time passes and I grow I experience it in a different way, but every time it gives me hope. Please, give it a try I'm not used to wright in english so sorry abot that and if you could correct me i would appreciate it

I don’t think Neeko had depression before her neet days though? Just without a real purpose and had a lazy personality.

I was mostly happy and carefree until I was around 22 then stuff started to get worse and worse in my life. I had set a goal to get myself straightened out mostly by the time I turned 30 and thankfully I have accomplished a lot of that. I still have stress and past failures like debt haunting me but I've definitely changed my outlook and approach

Hiring manager here. If you are looking for a job and you got rejected a lot of time, please don't sweat it because we will have too much graduates that want a job. If we need 2 position in the company there will be around 6 to 8 person that applies for it and sometimes we didn't pick not because one was better than the other but because we randomly choosen them since they are all equally skilled. And if you apply to big companies that offers jobs every 6 months or so, reapply again and again. There's a few person we offered the job to that applied for multiple times and we picked them because of that reason. Don't sweat it if you don't get picked though.
