| Sage & Spam Rat #11 | "Welcome to the NHK" Manga ![]() Summary(provided by wiki... butchered by me): The main protagonist is Tatsuhiro Satō, a university dropout entering his fourth year of unemployment. He leads a reclusive life as a hikikomori, ultimately coming to the bizarre conclusion that this happened due to some sort of conspiracy. One day just when his life seems entirely unchanging, he meets Misaki Nakahara, a mysterious girl who claims to be able to cure Tatsuhiro of his hikikomori ways. She presents him with a contract basically outlining that once a day they would meet in the evening in a local park where Misaki would lecture to Tatsuhiro in an effort to rid him of his lifestyle. During these outings, many subjects are discussed, though they almost always pertain in some way to psychology or psychoanalysis. Both Tatsuhiro and Misaki, however, have a tendency of over-doing things, such as hiding the truth, especially from each other and themselves. Despite Misaki's offer and pressing attempts at salvation, it is Tatsuhiro's neighbor and high school friend, Kaoru Yamazaki, whom Tatsuhiro often turns to in moments of need and support. Also, despite his own idiosyncrasies, Yamazaki is one of the more stable characters in the story. Age Rating: 18+ This anime contains Nudity(partially censored[thank god.. you will see what I mean]), drugs, dirty thoughts, suicidal moments, and other adult themes that may not be suitible for younger audiences. Personal Comment: For anyone who is a fan of the anime series, you will fully enjoy this whether you are a fan of manga or not. I for one, never read manga. This is the only one that I have bothered to pick up and I have enjoyed every moment of it. There are many scenes that never made it from the manga into the anime series and some are down-right hysterical. If you have not seen Welcome to the NHK, I would still highly recommend this if you enjoy reading mangas.
