I'm sure it will be as lackluster and forgettable as the new Death Note was. It's crazy that Anime has the same soft-reboot problem that Hollywood has.

Is the original worth watching? Spoon feed me.

It's a fantastic show. If you like anime, I suggest watching it. If you don't, probably not.
Also, this is just a LN sequel, no? It likely won't get an anime sequel for a few years, unless I'm missing something.

It's a decent one for being an anime novel. I guess the royalty money must've run out eventually because last thing I remember about the artist was him bitching he was physically unable to do anything that wasn't sleeping, eating or masturbating.

We're witnessing the global death of imagination. Guess we'll have to wait for AI to take up the mantle.

Yes, watch it. It's solid NEET humour. However, one thing the show misses (as does the book) is that NEETdom isn't merely an unwillingness to embrace normalfaggotry, but an actual inability. There is something fundamentally wrong with NEETs that makes them incompatible with society. The author of the original believed that the solution was as simple as NEETs norming up, as that had temporarily worked for him when he wrote the book. But as he discovered after publication, these bursts of forced activity do not last and soon enough the NEET is back to NEETdom. So the series/book has a particularly weak ending that will offer you zero insights whatsoever, if you're expecting the author to reveal the secret to your failure.

I'd say the protagonist's own inability to be even the slightest bit useful to a cold society that doesn't care for his own inabilities nor acknowledge his illnesses is at least tacit both throughout the novel and in the ending. He never really manages to be a normie and his upcoming hell is at least hinted upon.
But a Porno equivalent to Welcome to the NHK wouldn't be so bad, at least if the author's own life experiences being a worthless fuck living off royalties served him for any kind of enlightenment.

I hope Misaki didn't leave him or that it time skips and there relationship never progressed either (just pretended nothing happened). Also not sure how it will work with Yamazaki gone either.

Great show. Great novel. The show cut a lot so make sure you read the novel.

The main character says exactly that multiple times in the show and the fact that he hallucinates a grand conspiracy is a dead giveaway. He knows he has problems and never tries to hide that. When’s the last time you watched this?
