NHK ni Youkoso! Chapter 40 Discussion

bruh no i liked everyone, its just not for everybody

I shed a few tears during the first part of the ending but I was let down with the second half because it just happened out of nowhere

Absolutely stunned by this manga, I preferred the manga before the anime because of how things turned out differently. I liked the ending, and I agree with others that we

should have seen a more close relationship between Satou and Misaki in the end, overall a better ending than the anime. It would be nice if they could make a remake of the anime to be more like the manga, mostly because the anime lacks of those deep and scary moments.

I'm reading this way too many years after watching the anime (and its one of my favorite at that), the art was crazy good, loved the crazed faces and realistic detail in it. The thing is that you could consider them alternate versions with some similarities, being the anime more subtle with some themes (the manga delved more into drugs and sex) and the manga being more roundabout the plot progression and also some characters changed quite a bit (nanako was basically someone different). But anyways i give this a 8/10 out of pure enjoyment and plot difference but i'm still gonna keep having the anime as the ideal Welcome to the NHK (though i'm reading the LN after this).

Well guys, don't make me laugh.

When there is a happy ending you call it like "I knew it would end up like this, I hate it", and when there is no happy ending you say it sucks and that you were expecting something like "and so they lived long and were always happy". Just wtf? Decide, which one do you prefer.

I like the ending, cause it is not stereotypical - it is something I didn't predict, but I must say that it confused me a bit.

What's more, I believe manga is better than the anime when it comes to drama and few other things. I loved Misaki from manga, she was much better than the one from anime. Furthermore, I'd say they are two different girls! And look at Nanako! The same! Completely different than the one in anime. Hmm.. what else... There are many dramatic scenes and they really moved me deeply,for example, check chapter 19 from page 22 to 31 <-- This is just too sad.

Especially one scene stayed long in my mind (I guess I will never forget it). It is chapter 26 page from 23 to 25 <-- this scene moved me so so deeply, that I became MEGA depressed. I have never been so sad in my life.



Will it sound funny if I say that I do not recommend you reading this manga, beacuse you will be sick of sadness? I guess it's the best thing I could advice you if you are happy right now.

Now that I've read the manga, I'm not really sure if I prefer the anime or not. They're both so different that I just can't make up my mind. Well one thing's for sure, if I ever get the chance I'm reading the light novel in a heartbeat.

I was told the manga is much much darker than the anime, I had no idea it was this deep. >_> A lot of things that were said by Satou and Misaki, I can totally remember me thinking those things, which makes me sad. ;_;



Bonyfreeq sums it well for me, if you don't like feeling depressed maybe you shouldn't read it. The anime is much more comical and doesn't have that terribly haunting sadness to it (well not nearly as bad as the manga). However, I liked Misaki more in the anime. :P

Like when I finished this chapter I continued clicking over because I didn't realize that this was the end of the manga. When the page came up saying that there wasn't a chapter 41, I just sat there dumbfounded for a moment.



I felt like it ended 3-5 pages too soon. When looking back on the final chapter though, the ending fits in with how the rest of the manga worked.



Looking at this manga in an overview, it is completely different from the anime. The stories only share the most basic of thread between them, and the characters except for the MC and Yamazaki aren't really the same at all. As an example, I almost dislike Misaki in the manga. I much prefered the damaged girl with a past to the insane girl with some issues.



After viewing both the manga and the anime, I think I'm going to have to say that I like the anime more. Thats not to say that they both aren't rock solid, but the anime is superior in my opinion.
