That sounds pretty cool actually, wouldn't mind seeing that be a thing either.

How about an anime that looks at the idea of Hikikomori in a different way. Instead of eventually becoming social or active in any way, he never leaves and it doesn't really progress unless the person decides to just kill himself. But that would be progressing backwards, which I've only seen anime have shut-ins eventually go outside and live social lives. It's not absurd in the fact that it doesn't make any sense, it's absurd in the fact it makes more sense than what is out there. lel
