Firstly, the picture here is NOT the actual art style that is in the series, so don't judge it by that!

This series is about a guy who basically stays in his house all day. As the series advances, he gets in a lot of situations that are hilarious, such as having to make an eroge game, as well as becoming addicted to a "Final Fantasy" game, in which he coops himself up inside of his house again.

This series takes the tone of seriousness and also hilarity! This guy does have social anxiety, but he deals with this while gaining a friend or two. This guy has the most character development I've ever seen in a series.

By the way, I've seen around 40 series. This is the only one I've ever watched dubbed. The voice actors in English did a good job, for the most part. It made the series funnier for me, though the actors were lacking when the series called for seriousness. (show less)

This was truly an excellent and insightful anime, which looks at the difficult side of life. I believe 'Welcome to the Nhk' Provokes feelings of empathy as it closely relates to those in society. The journey of the main character- Satou we can relate to, living the life of a Hikikimori and someone with no hopes in his future. You can see his character grow, and eventually understand the perspective of people such as them, rather than judge you begin to understand.
The ending was a bit over dramatic, but it finishes the series nicely. There is lots of humour and moments affecting your own sanity, but this anime is such a treasure, with many memorable moments, good laughs and really hammers into your consciousness.
The animation is pretty resonable, but sometimes the drawings are a bit vague. Misaki's character design is simple and wonderful. There aren't characters with weird coloured hair and eyes, so in a way i think it further creates that atmosphere of a slice of life anime.
I recommend this anime, and it'll show you a different perspective of life- and how life won't simply go your way :) (show less)
