Tensai Dai Ni Ouji wa Hikikomori Tai: "Koku Kaishi" no Mujikaku Musou - Ch. 1 - The Shut-in Prince Goes Outside

[Saybah]

I'm giggling whenever they call him "Neet" unironically because it is his name

 

[spawnknight]

I Wonder what this plan is? Hope it's nothing serious...

 

[KoffeeStarZ0e]

You know you can be honest that u want that throne for yourself, pretty sure mc doesn't give any f**k lmao and he'll let you take it .

 

[Retro68]

"This time" kinda has the feel that the brother came back to the past after failing/dying/whoknowswhat once before.

From the flow of the story, I think the plan is reforming the little brother to be fit to be a king instead.

 

[lenovoaxioo]

The premise is kinda interesting. So the big brother is some kind of reincarnated person giving little brother all kind of modern knowledge via soma made up book he created??

 

[ARealCoolGuy]

I was thinking the king is the robbed guy at the very beginning, but looking again, is it neet himself that's the robbed guy?
This ties in well with someone else's time travel theory involving the brother.

 

[ScryedParadox]

So is he a real NEET though.

Let's see. Is he in Education? Is he in Employment? Is he in Training?

Well. We confirmed he's in Education. And even if he wasn't, he'd be in Royal Training.

And while you can argue he isn't Employed, if he became the Authority Figure in the end, he'd technically be the Employer, but that is still being part of Employment.

So it doesn't matter what he does. He is not a true NEET. He's a Sham. A Fake. He's... your typical Fantasy Protagonist.

 

[colorlesseatstomboys]

Another one of those tropes. I hope he understands soon enough he's OP as fuck.
Need spoilers if this is gonna be frustrating to read or not.

 

[mutsutakashi]

Oh no, another super genius who study enough to become the strongest in the world but somehow don't know basic knowledge of his world.

Totally legit right.

Seems like the brothers went back in time, but the older brother got the full mind travel while younger brother only got to say a few things before getting deleted or some such.

Probably need some special magic to solve a problem in the future that needs someone who isn't tied down by common sense

All I was able to find is that this is a manga adaptation of an Alphapolis LN series. There are only 3 books so far.
https://www.alphapolis.co.jp/novel/140962851/879677645

Alphapolis LNs are always the hardest to get official English translations for, because the publishers are so reluctant to allow foreign licenses.

 

[popmol]

hope there will be more to come

 

[banjomarx]

For those who don't know, Nihon = Japan. its how you say Japan in Japanese, but it probably confused the translator because they would have written it in katakana since he was using a word he wasn't familiar with so the pronunciation would have been off

 

[Bireus]

Add the school life tag. The first chapter is him literally going to an academy.

It's pretty obvious with all the modern sounding book and the 'Nihon' book.

Totally legit right.

If your entire education and interactions with the outside world are controlled by a 3rd party your world view and the frame you reference it from would be only as wide as the 3rd party allowed.

Granted there is always the chance for contamination to slip into the MCs bubble of isolation, but it wouldn't take much to for the second prince to be raised in such an environment where he is largely ignorant of the wider world and still a magical prodigy
