    I'm a 43-year-old divorced security guard. I've also been writing for something like 30 years and doing art for close to 10 now, so the idea of doing a series about my job or just incorporating it in fiction in some way has definitely popped into my head from time to time. I'm so glad people are getting more invested into serious "adult" stories now. We could do with some more relatability in the genre as we age and mature into the next part of life.

      a managing style game would be cool; I have my family as a model on my mind;
      younger brother; advantages; doesnt even complain, starts doing stuff right away, can easily learn how to drive a tractor or car
      sister; similar to younger brother but both of them have limited capability in farming due to their limited understanding; their saving grace is their speed and commitment they can follow instructions easily.
      mom; very flexible and have high levels of discipline. she however limited by her physichal conditions.
      dad; very dedicated to every task and extremely disciplined; but like mother hes limited by his deterioring physique
      big brother; hes at the peak of his physique and dedication. cannot drive cars or tractor but can gor anywhere by walking and running. excels at innovation and information gathering, very dedicated but also distracted by his loneliness.
      you are will be going to tasked with using these characers to run a family farming business; you have sheeps and goats to herd, field to till and plant and buy-sells to manage.

    @hridampradhan514 Před 11 měsíci +745

    Ah, this manga really clicks with me. Not cuz i hung out with a goth girl behind a store but because I had exactly what Garnt described happen to me. It was an exhausting day so I decided to go to the local pond. Surprise surprise, it was full of couples. So, I decided that rather than entering the pond's walls, i would chill on the outside grass. Besides the weird glances I got from people, it was oddly relaxing to find peace in such a humble place. Not a bench for teen couples or a extricate architectural bench to rest your buttocks on. Just a patch of green grass growing under a tree.
    Soon, another gentleman joined me. He was a decade or two older than me and looked tired. At first, we didn't talk at all but he started a conversation by asking, "Want a cig?".
    I declined, because I don't smoke. But, that question sparked a 5 hour long conversation between the two of us. In those 5 hours, I didn't ask any personal detail about him except his name, neither did he. We just talked. About nothing deep or meaningful in particular. Just mundane topics like our respective workplaces, the stingy stallowner across the road, dating lives, the weather, food, etc. He even shared a lot of banter he has with his wife in final hour. I loved every bit of that conversation. It was so insignificant that it remains in my heart not as a detailed and thrilling experience but a tranquil one that calm my heart. I don't remember his face since it's been a year or two. I don't know where he is today, but hopefully in a better place than he was then.

    I’m not much of a manga reader but I have to read this one. Your video about it made me nostalgic. I was friends with a 48 yr old when I was 22. We both worked in the kitchen of the same restaurant that was conveniently next to a bar. We always hung out to drink together next door when a work day was rough (or not 😂). There were no ulterior motives, no sneaky plans, nothing. Just 2 adults complaining about the same job and enjoying their free time together. He’d watch over my drinks and steer away unwanted men, and I’d hear him out about his wife issues and just talk about life in general. That was about 5 years ago now, I haven’t been in touch with him since. If I can get that same vibe off this manga, I might just cry.

    There's this particular sub-genre of slice of life called iyashikei that I love. Basically anime meant to be just vibes. Think Yuru Camp, Campfire Cooking in Another World, Insomniacs After School, Skip and Loafer or Natsume Yuujinchou. This manga sounds like something of that sort; like it's meant to give you that soothing, calm, relatable feeling that let's you just be at peace for a moment.

No bullshit tropes, no misunderstandings that could be solved by a 30 second explanation, no doki doki heart explosion just because you brushed against a hand. I can't remember which anime CZcamsr I watched that talked about it and pointed out why I loed it so much. Real adults with realistic relatable problems. THAT is what made it connect so good.

      @@MrYuntu Adult romance IS boring though. That's why it's relatable. The point of the show is two people that happen to meet and don't know if they even like each other or if they're just dating out of convenience. Which is a perfectly real thing. It's been a long time since I've watched it but it had scenarios that an actual adult might deal with. Insecurities that feel probable.
      The two characters not having chemistry is also probable. High school romance is about wish fulfillment because of course the two will end up together eventually. It's destiny. I still really enjoyed it.

    Honestly, yes. We need more content about adults. Stories don't have to be about high schoolers with exaggerated personalities to be wholesome and cute. In fact, moving away from that really does make them more relatable to a big portion of people who read these manga and watch these anime. You can also look at real problems and situations working adults and people in developed relationships experience, not just teenage drama that has little real impact.

      This. I understand that from a producer perspective, they know that A LOT of people grow out of anime/manga as they grow up (aside from a handful of "for the whole family" shows that adults can watch with their kids), but I think it's worth questioning whether that really is an inevitability. Are there so few adult-themed ones because adults aren't into anime/manga or isn't it more that adults lose interest BECAUSE there are very few anime/manga that speak to them? Like, yeah reminiscing about my highschool days is nice from time to time, but ultimately, I live in the present and face adult problems, and would like to see characters struggling with adult problems too.
      I know Japan has its own culture and all, but considering how popular hobbies that used to be only for kids are overseas, I think there's definitely some value in having more anime/manga aimed at adults too. I mean, hey, we're the ones with all the disposable income, you know? From a business standpoint, it's a pretty desireable demographic 🤷‍♀️ So there's good reason to tap into that market a bit more decisively.

    I can relate, Garnt. Between all the slice of life or romance things with fantasy elements, about teenagers or kids, with a moe focus, and so on, that always get recommended to me... I am just eternally on the lookout for shows or manga or VNs that are just like _this._ What would you even call it... "normal"? Just normal people having normal relationships, written well. I crave that so much in stories, and it's so rare.

    My liking for this type of manga started with Sweat and Soap. Adult characters having realistic adult relationships is a refreshing change from all the SoL manga with high schooler MCs that became unrelatable after you've grown up, joined the workforce and left behind your adolescence.

    The daily 9 to 5 or whatever schedule you work as an adult makes you frustrated but the little things are what keep you from running away. The McDonalds worker that is always a little weirdly chipper in a good way, the same people saying goodnight to you as you leave. The same road you take, the gas station that has the snack. These things are what make this grind bearable and it's really beautiful to see a manga take that as its whole premise.

    Also I do think there needs to be more adult centered shows. I would easily watch more moe/CGDCT if it was just an adult cast. Think I’m so deprived of bare minimum socializing, interactions, intimacy, and having an unfulfilled life, this niche genre could check off all those things. Plus there’s so much more interesting situations adults find themselves in with late night drives, stores, bars, college, Otaku but still doing other hobbies, trying new things and failing. Fuck I would love this.

      Though admittedly that doesn't mean that introverts can't develop social skills. And developing social skills and being authentic (so that you don't have to wear a mask) can make it less draining to be around other people. But still, I have fine social skills and even if I'm around someone who I like and I'm being genuine, even then after a relatively short amount of time I'm just out of social energy and I would prefer to be by myself.
