It's Fun Having a 300,000 Yen a Month Job Welcoming Home an Onee-san Who Doesn't Find Meaning in a Job That Pays Her 500,000 Yen a Month - Vol. 1 Ch.…

I personally feel her mental state is a big minus and that it needs to be toned down just a little bit because if it gets any worse the fluff will feel less wholesome and more like ignoring a serious problem.
 
Okay she is not mentally okay at all. She should invest her money into seeing a psychiatrist or therapist and not some random nice neighbor. Also who the hell drinks Dasani? Tap tastes better than that. If the problem is chlorine, Dasani tastes like someone dumped a bath of chemicals in each bottle.
 
I have mixed feelings about this. On the one hand, I think it portrays something important. Despite being a comedy, and playing with humor, it really tackles something as simple, and yet as harsh, as the feeling of loneliness of an empty house, and the fear of not being wanted. I think it's great.
On the other hand, she's too extreme. And I don't mean in the "oh it's a manga, they send people flying with a punch" extreme. I think at this point her mental health is in real need of professional help, and while it'd be lovely to have a sugary, fluffy romance where the neighbor heals her, it's not enough. Just like it's not enough for a person with depression to just have a friend, or a lover.

@auriga Agreed. The whole chapter as a whole felt weird.
 
As someone who has anxiety and is also dating someone with anxiety and low sense of self-worth, I think this was a surprisingly accurate depiction of anxiety in relationships. Even the smallest, slightest detail can set it off, and they lead to these rapid 0 to 100 thoughts of what a terrible person you are. This chapter alone earns the manga an easy 10 just from how raw and unabridged the message the chapter is delivering feels to someone who's dealt with both sides of an anxiety relationship.
 
Yeah why did God give us the ability to regret?
AAH FUCK MY MEMORIES ARE COMING BACK AAAAAAAAA
 
yeaaah this girl is depressing. It kinda hurts how I can kinda understand/relate with her too.
 
As a God once said, "you are my best waifu. Waifu? No no no no no no no You are my best friend! Are you ok?" -Fubuki
Sorry this is the first thing I thought of when I saw fubuki plush

Funny how the mc blamed god for something like that tbh. Felt so stupid and out of place.
