Class de 2 Banme ni Kawaii Onna no Ko to Tomodachi ni Natta - Vol. 1 Ch. 1 - Kindred Souls

Huh what's wrong with liking b-movies, or any unusual hobby? Why would it be growth if you choose to do anything else? Wouldn't that apply to the heroine too?

Like I said, there's nothing wrong with liking it, but I think if that's the only thing you like, you're missing out on life, and I think you're gonna end up unhappy in the long run. Of course it applies to the heroine, but my point was that she's unrealistically convenient for a lonely shut-in like him. He's the only one of the two who feels like he could exist in real life.

Applying FOMO on life isn't worth it IMO. If you could be happy with just one thing (and it's safe and cheap), then you're one step closer to winning at life. If you fell for the FOMO, then you will be unhappy no matter what. Coming into each decade/milestone of getting old, you will always worry yourself with what you don't have or haven't done.

The only thing convenient about her characterization is that she's from an all-girl's school. Speaking from experience, she's a type who is not particularly that unusual as far as hobbies go. But maybe it's different for Japanese people.

Edit: actually, after having read the later chapters, I'd say it's the guy MC who is more of a catch. It could be said that he's also unrealistically convenient for the heroine.

I'm not talking about worrying about FOMO, I agree that there's no point in worrying about what you chose not to commit to, but there's a difference between that and living a hermit life and spending all your free time doing only one thing. I just think it's pretty much guaranteed you would live a more fulfilling life than that by just expanding your horizons a little.
