Joey will not appreciate how you dubbed over the ladies of Lucky Star. Imma call the animeman
i found it 1st
and i finished it too
for now that is
where is the kingdom of dreams and madness parody ,and was it made by Gigguk at all?
Naah
man, garnt, u really should switch to manhua. it's so much more mature and not even all the time in a sexual way
Nothing makes me feel better than seeing fictional adults do things that I can't do like making friends
I don't know, pick up a hobby like smoking? XD
@@sjtez 'pick up a hobby like smoking' 💀

@@sjtez can I pretend with a toy cigarette or will that be frowned upon by the alley smokers? I want friends but I don't want lung cancer
@@greyfox4838 Bro, you're ignoring many perks for the SLIGHT discomfort that is death. At this point, you're just not making any efforts...
So you're saying instead of finding a "manic pixie dream girl" he found a "chill goth realist girl?"
Both actually
Ubw abridged appreciator i see
Garnt taste be like
That's still a manic pixie dream girl
@@hafirenggayuda yeah, isn't it the same?
I've done it. I've FINALLY done it. I found a manga before this man could introduce it to me. I can now die fulfilled.

Same, such a hidden gem lol
After watching Wotakoi, I realize WHY CANT WE HAVE MORE ADULT THEMED SHOW/MANGA. So glad I found this manga a few months ago. Thank you for shouting this manga out Garnt!
seriously! i was pretty shocked to see this particular manga getting attention..idkw lol 😂
@@thisanimefab8086 weebs are finally growing up lmao.
because thats not what the market wants
i liked watakoi (i wasn't even a adult when i watched it, even now i dont consider myself one) but it was very enjoyable as a connoisseur of slice of life anime i enjoyed my time when i watched it
@@siliconhawk9293 yeah that one is a top tier slice of life.
I loved the part where Gigguk says " Im 30 years old what am I doing ", hits right at home
Just wait until you're 40, niqqa... and then wait until you're 50.... and then wait until you D E A D 😅
I just turned 18 today and I know I'm nowhere near y'all but I feel a weird feeling of discomfort when I do the things I enjoy (because of age) so I think I can relate a little bit

@@WaterMelonian next 10 will go fast af boiiiiii
As a being as old as time I can agree it's relatable
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.
I've been thinking about something similar; I'm a farmer and I also herd sheeps and goats.
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.
@@mehmetgurdal goddamn

We need more authors like this mangaka and you, good sir.
Good luck!
@@mehmetgurdal Sounds like a complete f-ing nightmare. :D
43 but that makes you older than one piece? Tell me why was it like in the golden age before long drawn out garbage?
Gigguk: slice of life is SOO BOORRINNG
Also Gigguk: FINALY!! A manga about being a *boring adult*
Literally half way through this I was thinking “damn this man is straight up reading a podcast.” I’m very glad Garnt came to the same conclusion 😂
holy shit podcast are taking over everything bro. it was youtube now its even taking over manga 💀😂
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.
WHOLESOME
damn, what a rejuvenating read.
homie actually touched grass fr... take notes lads
That sounds like one of those encounters in life that you can call a magical encounter. Moments like these, so unforgettable and unforeseeable are what make life precious truly. I can imagine how the convo was, I like how you described it.
I love how passionate he is about crisps. So much that he basically made a free advertisement.
Tbf, those Paprika crisps are fire. I love them just as much as he does.
i was so happy to see that he also shares the same love for that exact type crisp
@@Hydraclonebased as hell
I also love those crisps a lot, more than any other in fact. But unfortunately they stopped selling those in my town for some reason. Can't find them anywhere.
Gigguk's videos are like monthly chapters. They are worth the wait.
whats the manga name why gigguk didn't even say it?
@@Solirhaps the channel is the manga
As someone who turns 25 in less than a month and scared shitless of getting older and becoming an actual adult, i feel like i need this manga in my life. Can’t wait to start reading it
@@AngelTorres-vu2izits because you dont really comprehend and understand the responsibilities of an adult and what you are leaving behind as well as changes in your body
@@ero-senninsama1734 yeah, we can't run away forever from our responsibilities
All I can say is, don't look at anyone else's life besides your own. Life is not a race, and it may feel like the days are going by too fast sometimes, but at the end of the day; you can only do so much. Enjoy it.
Be afraid, be very afraid; being old sucks; knees hurt, back hurts, life hurts, existencial crisis come and go every day, you are always asking yourself if your friends really like you, if you really like them; if you made a wrong turn on your life; what to do now that your wife decided to leave you...and, the worst thing...anime start to look boring: seinen, boring; echi? Boring; shonen? What that hell is a Clover?; Revivals? Yuck. But, that only happens when you are way over thirty. So you still have some years ahead, enjoy them.
that ship sailed 7 years ago.
LOL I love how pretty much every Gigguk video essay starts off with memes and jokes then ends with the most insightful and heartfelt speech about anime ever.
That really how life do be though
That's been his hook since day 1 hasn't it?
thats the scrubs formula
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.
Idk who you are but I sincerely hope you somehow, by complete chance meet each other when getting some the groceries or something and can reconnect as friends again, even though I’m young(ish), I can tell if is *very* rare to have that kind of friendship so I wish you luck :D
Name of the manga
@@Gottaloveaxolotls I hope so too! Thank you! I lost his phone number when my old one broke down so that might actually be the only other way we reunite, however cliche it is
@@Asagensoren the one in the video or are you talking about my life? 😂
@@killjoyjack bout the video i think
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. I'm happy Gigguk could find a series that made him feel that way, everyone needs some vibes in their life sometimes
Insomniacs after school is so good, slice of life but it doesn't seem boring, always something interesting each ep
No way Skip and Loafer fits here lmao. That manga has so many emotional peaks that no way in hell you relax to it
Couldn't agree more. I've read Insomniacs after School and Skip and Loafer, and there's just something about that type of manga that leaves you feeling so calm and warm inside. Glad that Gigguk could show me another manga with the same type of feels
4:11 okay this was absolutely flawless. Pure comedy gold.
I love when Gigguk does manga reviews because you always know that its gonna slap. Please do more of them.
Exactly
Yeah I found the masterpiece oshi no ko cause of him hells yeah
@@shsh-mc3sx SAME. Gigguk's recommendations never disappoints.
his recommendations are always popular ongoing manga so literally none of them have been new to me, though they are all really good so nice to see more people notice them lol
The MangaZone
Gotta say, Gigguk really knows how to get you into reading a certain manga or watching a show you might not even have heard off🙌🏽
Yea, he's also a fucking shill, doesn't mean I'm buying any of this shit....
The only problem is that it doesn't have enough chapters than it should I need more 😭
He got me on Kingdom and Oshi No Ko and they're like my two favs
dude, Garnt got me into the oshi no ko manga in under 5 minutes XD
He spent a 15 years honing his craft.
God this is definitely going to get into this manga. It sounds soooo relatable for the age group it’s targeting. Also nearly died at the “JUST A BIT OF BANTER” 😂
I’m sure there will eventually be more works of this kind. The anime/manga community keeps growing, so more and more people will get into the age where they can relate
We have come to a full loop of "Gap Moe" being popular again.
I predict this will be next top comment
When was the last time I heard of those words damn 💀
Wtf is gap or moe
Not sure if it was ever in favour before to come full circle tbh. I have always been into but most people seemed to just not care.
@@Che1seabluesdrogba11 basically when something is unexpected. For example, someone who is always quiet and rude at work really loves helping their mom cook and has a garden.
It’s unexpected and just another side to someone you wouldn’t expect.
Uramichi Oniisan already exists as an anime.
Adults✅
Stupid jobs✅
Teenage dreams are shattered long ago ✅
Still fun and heartwarming ✅
Yes. It is great. Genuinely got me laughing.
I love iketeru oniisan’s laughing 😂
And honestly, I enjoy the dub as much as the sub for how the VAs just gnaw on their 2D scenery lol
Isnt that anime about taking care of kids?
@@suisus3780 technically no
Thanks for the recommendation, hadn't heard about it and seems up my alley.
Some other great adult slice of life manga, just off the top of my head:
- Living, Eating & Sleeping Together (just everyday troubles of a couple who moved in together)
- Kumika no Mikaku (alien coworkers just trying to get by while trying to get the kuudere to enjoy food)
- Welcome to Japan, Ms Elf (originally an LN)
I remember finding this manga suggested on twitter last year when it won an ward i hope yall enjoy this as much as i did and hopefully we can get more frequent chapter updates :D
It’s a fantastic manga. Every chapter is just really enjoyable and wholesome
Gigguk's touched on so many great mangas I would have never heard of. I love these videos.

4:11 Brilliant joke.
Alpha Sigma
Even the small simplest things are enjoyable on another level. Series like these are a rare gem.
OMG, I had a casual smoke break friend like this. The vibe between us was heavenly - no bodily interaction needed. By God, it was comforting. We also had each other's back which made her boyfriend jealous because of her devious personality. How does a woman get rid of a toxic boyfriend without burning her relationships? It's all the good stuff of a great narrative. I will definitely check out the series in this vid.
Something similar could quite possibly be Wotakoi. It felt like a breath of fresh air since it dealt with post-high school, post-college working adults.
Wotakoi pretty much ruined standard romance anime for me because it was just leagues better. 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 RUclipsr 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.
@@scopie49 I felt similarly. It's really annoying that there aren't more adult romance manga. The high school drama is just totally played out.
@@scopie49 Complete opposite for me. Wotakoi was one of the most boring romance shows, felt like zero chemistry was there or interesting characters. Was pretty disappointed by it.
@@scopie49 “no bullshit tropes” did we watch the same wotakoi it was unwatchable every character was boring except the main guy all the rest were extremely trope like and bland.
@@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.
it feels odd to have followed a series from so early on to finally see it become so well known and popular that Gigguk makes a video on it. It's such a comfy story, and yes, smoking looks cool as fuck, no matter how much durries suck. Even got Subaru smoking as a big old magnet on my fridge.
edit: Actually, speaking of slice of life with adults, this is why I loved Sing Yesterday for Me. The lead being an actual adult who lives in his own place was awesome. Lotta smoking in that one too, turns out.
What are you doing here.
I think smoking does not look inherently cool. The cigarette companies just use cool movie characters as advertisements for smoking so from a young age people will associate cigarettes with cool people.
In other countries they also have people stand outside schools giving out free samples and saying "it's cool, just look up and see that billboard with the cool cowboy smoking."
I started reading it, because Calli mention it once. And got hooked, it's so simple story but so damn good, the art is great, the characters are so relateable.
@@ishab.6798 I dunno what countries have people giving "free cigarette samples" (especially doing it outside schools), but that's gonna be an automatic lawsuit from the Department of Health and Department of Education if that ever happens from where I'm from.
@@ishab.6798 It absolutely looks inherently cool. It's something literally on fire, with smoke coming off of it, and when you let out a breath you let out a cloud of smoke instead of, I dunno, the smell of beer. Much cooler to draw or film than someone just drinking from a bottle.
Yes, cigarettes advertised a bunch, we all know the stories, but that doesn't make the fire-smoke-stick not cool as fuck. I still don't smoke them cause lol fuck that, but hey they look cool.
As someone who is not an adult but is close to becoming one, after reading the manga I found myself super invested in the story and characters because of how real, relatable and just human they felt, I can't wait to see more and thanks for introducing me to to this manga, it very quickly became one of my favorites!
I found this one a bit ago and I absolutely love it. I'm glad to see it promoted and I hope it gets more!
why is the ending segment got cutted LMAO
there is no next time, he will just be seeing us all (possible world tour teaser)
he died because of lung cancer

@@Ankibank2000 grant doesn't want to see us again 😔
Also this manga is the bomb, I'm currently 23 but reading thes manga really made me feel like a 45 year old unmarried office worker who's kinda behind the times.
Eventually falling for a sweet girl who's way younger then I am and I come to the realisation that I am way past my youth and try to move on.
Apparently, I can't
The daily mood.
Im 19 and im not even entirely done with school. That shit got a bit to relatable
@@kvn9028 it either happens as you grow up, or maybe I really do think like an old fart like everyone says. Regardless, give yourself 3 years and I swear you'll feel it balls deep
Son, you're only 23, go live a little.
@@kvn9028 there’s a difference between sympathizing and relating pal
This is legit the push the manga needed for it to be really popular thanks grant 😊
I would like to point out that Garnt's Crisps story was almost identical to Nanami's story about stores stopping selling the kind of bread/sandwich he likes in Jujutsu Kaisen being one of the defining moments in "being an adult".
Its probably how he got the story.
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.
Considering the decreasing youth rate in japan it is weird how there isn't more anime for adults
That's why shows like Gintama are peak!
This reason is why I'm seriously getting invested into "Married Life" series like _Tonikawa,_ and even the entire premise of the hero of _Jigokuraku_ is to get back to his wife, alive and in one piece. It's seriously wholesome and there's a _lot_ of fertile ground in the genre to dig into more mature settings and ideas apart from traditional _seinen._
You realize there are entire genres of manga and anime for adults, right? It’s one thing to say that it might be lesser in quantity to Shounen or Shoujo media but you’re acting like it doesn’t exist at all.
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.
Really appreciate it whenever theres an Anime or Manga that targets an older audience. I think it always frees up a lot of space to talk about topics more difficult or abstract to approach when you're younger.
Beeng stuck in a dead end job and making the best of it without moving the world is exactly the kind of story we need these days.
youd be shocked what the older audience watches
@@francisnorthwood7862 I know hwat they watch, and it has nothing to do with my argument.
My argument afterall isnt that a mature audience doesnt watch cute stuff or anime set in schools. My point is that its nice to have Anime/Manga that handles topics a mature audience can relate to a lot more.
@@FantasKanal I wouldn't say that a mature audience doesn't watch "cute stuff or anime set in schools". Sometimes, anime is just to escape from reality for a bit. But sure, anime with adult cast are great, mostly.
This manga deserves all the attention, it's such a mood. I have been following it for the last 6 months or so and the only complain is it doesn't have a proper schedule
Mood, Vibe and Other buzzwords is how i know it has no substance without reading it
It's an amazing manga. I didn't even realize I've been longing to read a chill story about adults. Stories about adults are usually super serious seinen dramas, but it's not quite the mood I'm looking for right now. This manga just gives me such a cozy and comforting feeling that It became my favorite.
I remember reading this manga when it was still a Twitter manga. I was hard carried by those translators. Really happy to see it is now serialized.
4:31 OH MY GOD YOU AND I ARE POLAR OPPOSITE IS SO GOOD please read it.
If anyone like Gigguk is also looking for story focusing around adults, I highly recommend Nagi no Oitoma. It is about adult doing adult things but with 1000x more drama and human connection.
I'm leaving this 🖊 here so I dont lose this information
Where can I find nagi to oitama? Mangalife and mangareader don't have them, and from the looks of it there aren't any english chapters on mangadex or comick
@@ryuurufudid u check bato also hush hush on the actual names

Dude I've loved this manga for so fucking long thank you for bringing it to more people so they can enjoy it as much as we all have so far.
Dude same
I remember back in the community college days there was a girl I'd frequently take smoke breaks with. It was just a friendship but still a meaningful part of my day.
It's kind of amazing how sharing a single cigarette can lead to so many conversations and memories.
Black Lagoon is also a slice of life with smoking. It just has a tad more violence to it.
Just a tad
I can for once say I hopped on a hype train for a manga before Garnt recommended it to me! This manga is sooo good and chill, and something about the flirtacious yet indirect romance makes it so enjoyable to read.
I started reading this manga when it just got serialized (in "the page" of couse) and I love it. It's even better when you learn that it was originaly published on twitter and was so popular that it got scouted with even more success. I really love how that fucking hellhole of a social network can also have things as special as this.
Bro, deadass? That’s fkn insane. Really happy for the creator (: Have not read it yet, but I’m sure he deserves it :p
Hey, everything's relative. In comparison to 4chan, twitter is the incarnation of purity
@@user-cg7gd5pw5b I wouldn’t go that far, I’ve seen things on twitter that made me contemplate ending it all
Oh, so it really was first published on Twitter. I thought it was already an ongoing serialized manga when I found it on the blue bird last year. That's actually neat.
A stopped clock is correct twice a day.
Mangas about adults dealing with adult stuff:
-She loves to cook, she loves to eat
-Kowloon Generic Romance
-Sweat and Soap (Ase to Sekken)
-Run away with me, girl (Kakeochi Girl)
-My lesbian experience with loneliness
-Uramichi Oniisan
AHHH!!! This makes me so happy that you dug this manga. I've been reading this one for a while - and for the EXACT same reasons - I LOVE LOVE LOVE slice of life, but I'm 40. High school stuff isn't appealing and makes me feel creepy. But this is such a fantastic read! Thank you for putting this out to the world, Gigguk! If anyone finds this good, I also suggest 'So You Tomorrow At The Food Court" - It's high school girls talking, but feels like the high school aspect is more in line with trying to sell to a wider audience, because it basically feels like a 20-30 somethings' visual podcast. It's super relaxing to read.

First time Garnt makes a video about a manga i was already reading and found on my own. I now feel ... POWERFUL
Me too
same
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.
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.
i just binged the manga. i need more. its so comforting to see adults with adults problems and seeing a relationship build up that feels natural.
I dunno why but seeing this made me wish for more Black Lagoon sequels. Maybe it's for the few quiet moments when the crew are just smoking & chatting but I loved the general atmosphere in those scenes.
oooh Black Lagoon! I had forgotten about watching this masterpiece entirely. The adults moments felt the most real whenever the song "Tear drops to Earth" dropped, somehow gave me comfort and nostalgia. Cowboy Beebop had somewhat similar adult themes. Amazing shows.
the last time i checked the manga is still on
fukn. loved. black lagoon. - MORE OF THIS!
Hype you brought this one up, I binged it a bit back
Having FLCL ost in some parts was so on spot. Great choice as always
Why is there not more stories like these?
Because relying purely on dialogue to convey character and narrative momentum is hard. Most manga/anime can barely keep things semi-coherent from one episode to another, they would hardly be able to make something feel natural and engaging.
try Hirayasumi
There is indeed more stories like this, this is definitely not some original idea. Love in a Puff (2010 Hong Kong movie) is like this. I wouldn't be suprised if this manga was inspired by that movie. Maybe look outside of Japanese anime/manga medium, try out international films/ shows.
Try “Telework Yotabanashi” such a good read with adult relationship. It’s ended and has only 20 chapters unfortunately.
@@adrunkmonk Thanks for the rec.
@@sandlerdog7064 Thanks for the recommendation.
May Gigguk's blessing hit this manga and we get anime adaptation next year 🙏🙏🙏
Give it 1 more year
The series started on 2022 & monthly, only up to 22 chapter/month
You need at least 30 chapter to have an anime season, also depends on the demand & epilogue of the series
Gigguk has the blessing meanwhile Chibi has the cursed
I don't think the vibe can be transfer into anime. Like Frieren, I'm really scared that they fucked it up.
@@frank8william Tbf there is a chance it can. It depends fully on the voice actors and what individualities they decide to fit into an adaptation
Imma be honest I don't think the vibe of reading the manga, the panel structuring and the silent emotion panels can be truthfully translated into an anime.
As a smoker i have talked to a lot of different people that i meet in smoking sections or outside of a cafe or a restaurant. You would be amazed how easy it is to talk to people about different things while sharing a smoke break. It's one of the little thing of life that i truly enjoy.
Talking to people is so hard for me, even though i act like i can talk to anyone. I act like as if i can talk to anyone with confidence, but i cant, idk why i do this. I feel nervous and scared when i meet people. And this is really a bad habit, i cant find anyone that i can call a friend, all the people i have met, that call me as a friend dont even feel like were friends. We don't know much of each other, we don't hang out, we don't talk to each other much and we rarely even meet each other. It feels hollow, i want to talk to that person who would understand and just genuinely vibe with, that one guy that would comfort me.
I really need a friend. I don't care if I don't get a lot of friends, i just want even one person to call a friend. Being alone in this hell hole of a world we live in, is terrifying.
Legend says that till this day, Gigguk is still in the middle of saying “I’ll see you all
Gigguk went out for cigs and never came back
For some reason, as Gigguk upload another video talking about a certain manga, it feels like the manga will get an anime adaptation... one day. Four or five years, it may come.
He always recommend all the good stuff to us.
fr!! always felt like Garnt's reviews always reps us manga/LN (even manhwa too tbt his tower of god video) readers super well while on that long wait for anime adaptations to come through. this manga is a super solid read + is doing well in JP so wouldn't be surprised if it gets a show eventually!
Once a manga has his seal of approval, it's only a matter of waiting my friend
Bruh i have this thing but to the logical extreme. There have been 8+ manga that I've briefly read, then dropped, that have gotten anime in the past 4 years, in some sort of strange cycle; and I'm starting to think that it's not a coincidence anymore...
_What do i do with this power?_
Grant is the prophet of weeb culture
@@davidlewis4237 is it possible to learn this power?
I'm turning 30 this year and between this and Uramichi Oniisan, im really glad theres stuff like this out there (this has defo been a lot comfier tho, UO was more 'laugh-cry at the relatability'). But damn I agree we could do with more of this stuff.
I stumbled across this same manga about 2 or so months ago, and since then it's been a quiet feel-good manga that I eagerly await new chapters for. Something about it is just calming, and of course Yamada/Tayama is cute, but I think it's because of just how relaxed and real everything is in the manga.
im so glad more people found this manga even back when it had only 5 chapters it felt like something special
This isn't simply the Slice of life genre, this the new and popular "convenience store" genre. and this manga is the one that made this genre take off
Shame that the translation team seemed to have dropped it
It got somewhat licensed. It is on Manga Up, the Cleveland to K MANGA’s Detroit. Although, with it’s small success there, Squenix will eventually release an English print version.
Damn, that sucks.
What are other examples of this genre? Need me more to fill in that void
So it's in the same translation hell like Bard Loen?
Does MMO Junkie count as the convince store genera? The protagonist goes there to get WebMoney cards a lot and her guild leader is the cashier at the hour she always goes to it (not that she was aware and he just knew she played the same game from her buying the cards).
as some who didn't start smoking, and yes i know the concerns, until a couple of years into the job i have now, convos at the smoke pit are where you get to really know people. even if you dont smoke, i recommend chatting with teh people who(also its a good excuse to taek a break for while)
I came across this around 2 months ago and I'm glad you enjoy it as much as I do.
Gigguk is like that one stepbro who says "im not a furry" while wearing a fursuit, watching furry stuff and eating pizza crust
But pizza crust is always good
@@demi8890 Same, I'd rather be a war criminal than an adult who removes the rind from ham
@@champiggyfrm_pig5271 Nah that shit is nasty and proven to be a carcinogen... so keep your smokes?
I hope he can make a video dedicated to Gundam: The Witch from Mercury
My guy, what the fuck is wrong with pizza crust. It's like a reward at the end of a questline.
4:19 worth the risk I'd say
Спасибо студии ДжоШизо, что перевела твоё видео. GiggUK, пожалуйста делай больше видео про мангу с подобной тематикой
Glad to see people finally noticing this gem of a manga.
So true that mangas featuring grown adults as main cast are wayyyy too rare. From one boring adult to another, I understand you 😂
Seinen and Josei usually have adult MCs
@@Jaykurosakii yes, though they also pass less often through the distribution filter in my country. I have most of those that did. I count on the admirable work of scanlaters for others.
Emirichu was right, gigguk wants a girl who can beat the shit outta him, and can relate got hooked after first chapter
Im only about 1 min in, but I read this about a month before your posting because someone posted the image you used for a thumb nail on fb and after the first few pages I was hooked
Gigguk recommending things are my favorite videos. Glad to be a subscriber.
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.
Sweat and soap is so good! The way they explored their relationship and FL’s anxiety and self esteem issues is really well done.
@@wxlurkeris good but definitely would appear weird to anyone but manga readers
Sweat and Soap is the opposite of realistic.
Oh god, I started reading that, but I have never been so grossed out from a manga before.
Ase to sekken was a godsend, and i am lucky enough to have followed their story one chapter at a time. I was genuinely sad when it ended.
Thanks Gigguk for feeding my manga addiction. You rarely miss with your recommendations.

Hi, I've had this manga in the back of my mind for a long time thanks to this video and last week I started reading it. I must thank you for bringing this gem into light.
Classic Tom Scott moment at 4:26

One of the most unique approaches in manga I have ever had the pleasure to read. Plus, being a former smoker, being able to have a place to chill together with a good friend and have a smoke is just awesome
As an adult past his 20s, I can relate so much. I wish so hard there were more beautiful Manga and Anime with relatable adult character. But im hopefull, the more Manga and Anime reader become older, the more demand for such content should be there, and hopefully, more content will be produced.

As an introvert, I truly believe that exposure therapy works wonders on my social anxiety. It helps me to constantly chat with people even if I don't feel like it because I'm able to better my conversation skills and it becomes less awkard when I talk with people. :3
I used to have severe social anxiety, couldn't even look at people in the eyes.
But after doing exposure therapy for nearly 4 years, I can now have normal conversations with other people and strangers, made friends and even feel confident enough to go out to concerts and talk to girls
Can relate to this. I will always be the "a bit weird" guy at work or social gatherings. But thankfully I have been lucky to meet people that are okay with that and I have been able to improve my social skills to a grown adult level 😆
I dont care about talking qith random people ,since they could be distracting you to go on a shooting spree. social gatherings or any of the normie NPC behaviour
Intro and extro vertedness is a construct. No one is one or the other, but a mix of both. Youd do well to really take that in rather then label yourself
@@santioliva If you define introvert = energy drains around other people, extravert = energy recharges around other people, then most people are one of the other. That's just, well, how people are.
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.
People are finding manga I've been reading for years, I'm so happy about this, keep it up
Finally, a manga about smoking that I can read while smoking my cigarettes.
In all honesty though, imma have to check this out. Seems like it would be right up my alley. I love slice of life shows but they are rarely relatable, so looking forward to giving this one a read.
Finally this manga is getting some decent recognition.
I’m so happy this manga is getting the attention it deserves
This is just Love in a Puff (a 2010 Hong Kong movie) but in mâng form.
you've found my major gripe with anime and manga as a whole, theirs few stories that have an actual mature tone to them, the majority of stuff that comes out, slice of life, moe, isekai, there are a few series I like but theirs nothing this serious that's grounded in reality, at least what i've found so far and thats a damn shame
Thank you Gigguk for giving this manga a stage. Its been a fun journey to read this last year...And yes Tayama is 100% Waifu Material.
This manga is such a vibe. And can confirm she is indeed perfect.

5:51 bruh I love this snack so much I was eating it while I was watching this
Surprised it took me this long to find this channel... Insightful analysis of anime/manga, genuine good vibes, AND Love Hina music? Where have I been going wrong with my youtube algorithm...
"the pillows" music on the background in the start of the video was a really pleasant surprise for me!
Couldn’t find any name of it in comments or description so here it is

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.
the script was really well written and the jokes landed really well that it made me laugh out loud
Yeah this is one of his best videos in a while
This theme reminds me of kodoku no gurume, I am watching the Live Action. Goro the main character just do his work as furniture export import, then feels hunry then looking for food. That story happens every episode, and it just so satisfying when he found the food he wants
