    I’m waiting for the day some anime producer is brave enough to make the anime equivalent of The Whale, it would be pretty fun to watch since the anime industry seems to be too afraid of actually drawing an overweight character.

    Also, not even Charlie (The Whale’s protagonist) is a NEET.

      Oh don’t remind me. Almost every story where the MC is bullied for their supposedly uggly looks they are above average looking, slim and decently fit. Even in the few stories where the MC starts out fat they lose that weight as soon as the author can find an excuse to do so. It’s ridiculous.
