Top 12 Best Anime Hikikomori and NEET

Now it seems that living in paradise for hikikomori is easier than ever.

Being cooped up and online all day, it's easy to understand what it's like to be a NEET. If you are a fan of this kind of anime, even better!

If you're looking for some anime series with this hikikomori theme, I've compiled a list of the best ones to watch. Of course, without leaving your own living room.

12. No game - no life

I want to start the list with two choices that are about hikikomori people but are far from the usual setting.

In the case of No Game No Life, the protagonist's sibling duo, who never left home, are transported to a fantasy world.

Once there, much of their former hikikomori nature disappears. They have become prominent figures in the world.

However, they retain their huge separation issues as they mostly develop aneurysms when they are apart from each other.

Since the main characters were only hikikomori in the real world, this show is worth watching but may not be the most requested.

11. Btoom!

Similar to the previous entry, Btoom also starts as a hikikomori festival. But soon the isekai mask appears and becomes more "sociable".

Our protagonist is a guy named Ryuta who lives and breathes the video game Btoom!

He constantly plays it and he manages to rise to the ranks of the best in the world.

Because of his skills in the game, he is chosen to actually play the game. And now he's made to kill people to survive (definitely a weird twist).
