What does it feel like to be a Hikikomori?

After my mom and aunt passed away, I lived alone in my ex-aunt house and I also turn into Hikikomori as well.

I'm not fully Hikikomori because I still go outside for eating, buying necessary stuff and do small talks. But I still largely stayed in my house for a long times, introverted, prevent contact eyes with people as possible and I still can't trust anybody after so many people did wrong doings and betrayed me for their selfishness.

For very first time, i'm not feel adapting well with all problems and troubles by living alone. Thinking so many times to end my life then following my mom to heaven.

But gradually I changed my mind and now I more adapted to lived alone. I enjoyed playing games in my house, studying physics and math, do cycling, drawing Anime characters, repairing and cleaning my house by myself, watching Anime, etc.

I also enjoyed my internet life with my online friends, helping people have troubles in physics, math, Japanese and Chinese language, creating stop motion videos on YouTube, etc. So I treated internet as my second life now.

So yeah I always busy everyday in my house by just internet and house matters.

Despite nobody help me and my social skills is terribly bad, I gradually enjoyed my life as Hikikomori in positive way with all of my mights and limited skills.

I'm not choose to life as Hikikomori but situations forcing me to life like that. Life is short and precious, so I tried my best for it.

So here I am now….

Why do anime characters noses bleed when they get excited?

Some people had answered this question by blood pressure causes, when the characters feel excited the blood rushing to the brain then causing nosebleed. But in reality it's never happened.

From my opinion, nosebleed when feel excited is original Japanese invention in Anime or Manga for showing their true excited expression more clearly visible in humourous way and less vulgar.

It's so contrast in H-anime when nosebleed scenes more less seen.



Classical western cartoon also have their own way when a character feel excited, like popping eyes, whistling, jaw dropping, howling and catcalling in exaggerated way.



Shortly to say, nosebleed when feel excited in Anime or Manga is purely original Japanese invention for showing their Anime character expression more clearly visible, same goes with American cartoons in their unique way as well.
