I was somewhat nervous to start watching this anime because I knew enough about its plot to know that it was a very dark anime that focused on some very dark and serious things. Such as suicide cults and addiction to online mmorpg games. My fear was that the seriousness of the subjects they focused on would overshadow any jokes, which would make for a dark and depressing anime void of any comedy. I also was worried that they would oversimplify or play down the seriousness of the subject matter that was being addressed. Basically I was nervous that the dark content in the anime would sap any comedy out of the anime making it a boring and depressing show. Or if that didn't happen I thought that they would put in way to much comedy, effectively ruining any attempt at a serious tone. These were just my fears though, and once I saw this show I immediately realized that my fears had no basis. Welcome to the NHK does a really nice job of mixing comedy and serious real would problems that most people, at least to an extent, can relate to. I guess what I'm trying to say is if you had fears that were the same or similar to my own regarding Welcome to the NHK, there is nothing to worry about. It is a fantastic blend of comedy and real life problems that no anime fan should miss. So check it out and post a comment below telling me what you think. Thanks for reading and have a nice day.
