This is what he's trying to make, the rice and egg stuff.



It's common in japan. I don't like it.

Natto on the other hand, the other food he has, is good and nice, even though it looks just as gross.

Lion of Judah protect you, Jah be praised.
There was this guy in my dorm in Tokyo who would eat nothing but rice and natto for every meal (well, every meal that the dorm cafeteria offered rice). Us foreign students thought it was gross, the Japanese students thought it was sad.

Perhaps that guy was a NEET and we never knew...

Since we're coming upon the last page before the important choice, I might charge through to it quickly because I'm really excited to find out which direction we'll be taking Tohru for the foreseeable future.

Just gonna be the first to point out that at least three of his four recollections of having any passion in life are creepy and sexual. Not sure about the one where he's holding a crab or whatever, maybe.

If to live in this style is to be eccentric, it must be confessed that there is something good in eccentricity.

I vote he feels he's too overworked and inters himself in one of those fake Korean jails.

Also, how did you learn all the words for the sound effects, OP? I can never seem to find a good dictionary for those.

Edit: Also, raw egg and rice is delicious, as is raw egg and ramen.
Natto - not so much...


Why'd his face get cut into two panels?

More edit: They should throw the narrator on TV, he seems to be pretty good at debating. The protagonist mostly just ignores him though, so maybe he's not so well-suited to debating.

IT'S TIME TO VOTE

1 - Continue being a NEET
2 - Get part-time job
3 - Begin life of crime

The first choice is crossed out cuz it's a joke "game over" that's only a single page and I'll do it regardless as a bonus update whenever. The other 2 choices are both legit tho, so we're choosing between those.

Here's generally what I know about the choices. They're kind of like an A-side and a B-side of the site, the A-side (part-time job) being the sort of "main" story, since characters from that are on the site's banner and all, but the B-side (crime) still gets its fair share of love (and a branch of it is still currently updating). It just so happens that I've read about 75 pages of the "crime" branch, so I know that it is both hilarious and also absolutely not what you probably expect or wanted. I can only imagine that's also true for the other branches.

For reference, here is pretty much how the storyline is branched, based on the menu:

neet leads to crime or job. (and, for scale, this has been 6 pages)
crime ends after 101 pages, OR at some indeterminate point in the middle, a mystery path branches off that is still updating at 118 pages.
job is still updating at 223 pages, and also some mystery path branching from it that's still updating with 150 pages.
in other words, there are 3 known active paths and 1 "complete" path

Does that make sense?

PLEASE BOLD YOUR VOTE.
I think I'll probably give it 24 hours or so.


Edit: the thread chose path 3 (of loving course), so continue on for that one, which is currently ongoing. To see path 2, which is also ongoing with far fewer pages released, click here.

A life of Crime will shape this loser up. Or not, who cares, it'll be hilarious to see him in jail.

He's probably gonna just steal money from his relatives or something, I'm guessing.

Yes, I have walked along the path of evil many times, it's a twisting curving path, that actually leads to a charming block garden, but beyond that evil!

Part Time Job. I want to see him try to keep a job, I get the vibe he'll flip out at the first sign of anything requiring effort in the real world.
