What country are you in? b/c it'd be kinda odd to start a minimum at 25 versus like 18-21 esp for families who might need it (unless they're overcompensating for previous child labor stuff in the pass)

and tbf i think in her last job there was a flashback of her boss basically being abusive/something that'd be reported in western countries versus just a 'black' company that she was overworked at but hopefully her mom/parents would be accepting of just having any job versus just not working for like a year or however long it's been

Probably Indonesia
In Indonesia you are treated as a crippled by companies if you are above the age of 25,the previous comment actually lament about the fact nobody above the age of 25 could get a job. I wish I was exaggerating but you are not qualified for any jobs in Indonesia after 25

Everybody are discussing Pizza Hut, but on page 9 the box actually says Pizza Fat! 🍕

It is processed food that is made of saturated fats, carbs, palm oil, cheap industrial flavours and sugars. The quickest way to kill your liver.

Jesus. Thank God I have Little Caesar's near where I live.

 

[Yen_Fei]

Just be my wife!

I CAN FIX HER!!!!

better than drinking at least tho i'm sure there are ppl who drink/smoke as a slower way of dying tho wonder how many local chains/family restaurants around that could give her a nutritious and filling/'proper' meal since even tho she's a neet now i imagine she wouldn't have time to go outta her way to cook too, versus like, some kinda crockpot meal

Still kinda hard to believe an attractive young women could ever be in this kind of situation. They have so much social power just by nature its hard to believe.

The problem isn't that anything's gone particularly wrong with her life. It's just that she caved under the pressure. her family would probably take her in, no sweat, if she decided she absolutely didn't want to live alone. She'd probably get herself a guy if she decided to put herself out there. And the job thing, while harsh, is her own fault. She's not the subject of bullying, or tragedy here.

And she would read this comment or one like it and feel worse.

At what point do we go, "It's their fault" and write them off entirely?

When we can clearly see them ignore the tools to their own success. If you're broke, but you keep buying booze, games, eating out, getting tattoos, etc., it's literally your own damn fault. Like I said: She's not exactly screwed here. Point to a single thing that's actually working against her in this situation. It has to be out of her control, or otherwise unfixable.

1) She's older.
2) She hasn't worked in a bit.
3) ?

I'm so proud of her for trying. If anyone wants to see a similar character arc, check out 'The NPC's in this Village Sim Game Must Be Real!'. I know it sounds like some trash, but it is actually really emotional and touching.

yup, can confirm!!

 

[BuyVelomobiles]

yup, can confirm!!

I second that. The only flaw to the story is that it ends. Literally. The author leaves a bunch of dangling plot threads that never get resolved, and either he had another volume planned, or he left them just in case.

That is because it is based on a LN but the manga got cancelled before they could properly adapt the rest

I was talking about the Light Novel. Unless the Web Novel has the rest of the story (Which wouldn't surprise me), it ends with a bunch of dangling plot threads.

bocchi the nichijou. anyway, you can do it chat

 

[SimpIeton]

One step at a time. Proud of her!

 

[enScarlet]

really satisfying to see her trying to improve her life bit by bit albeit slowly

 

[kinayas]

Man, reading this series has been a painfully cathartic experience, but this one hit me the hardest.

Fast food has always been my go-to comfort item when I get depressed, but this brought back memories of being at my absolute lowest.

The pain of craving fast food when poor and depressed followed by the immediate regret once you eat it is so real. This brought back some painful memories of sitting in my car with a burger in hand and thinking about how I didn't deserve it.

It hurts to remember, but reflecting on it now is definitely helping heal some of the pain I was going through back then.

Also really happy to see her taking more steps towards recovery! I really hope things continue to slowly get better for her.

will the translation continue? I really like it so far, almost a look into my future…

Ordering a pizza in Japan can get pretty expensive since it's treated like a delicacy over there for some reason, that it doesn't matter if it's from a small shop or a larger chain like Pizza Hut. Even more expensive then any regular sort of meal set, including other fast foods like a burger set from McDonalds, Burger King or a domestic chain.

Not going to lie this is me right now.
