I’m looking for the title of an anime. It’s about a guy in his mid 20s who has agoraphobia. The first episode is filled with his hallucinations. The title refers to a specific Japanese word for what this guy is. He doesn’t have a job, isn’t in school or any sort of training. I think at the end of the first episode he applies for a job at a manga store.
I believe that series is “Welcome to the NHK” with the H standing for hikikomori (apparently otaku on steroids).
Googling “anime agraphobia” yields a series called “Welcome to the NHK,” with the H in NHK being a secondary reference to the Japanese term “hikikomori,” or an agoraphobe. Does this blog write-up of the first episode ring any bells?
Well, looks like my post was unnecessary, but hey-- might as well check out the link and see.
Thanks, after I posted this I got the bright idea to google it.
