i have no idea ;_; i asked takimoto-san for the translation, he replied with this so far.
"The end of NHK", article from Tatsuhiko Takimoto's blog.
English translation, PART ONE
Link to the original article from Takimoto's blog: http://tatsuhikotakimoto.com/2016/03/02/the-end-of-nhk/
Thanks to Davide Giacobbe for the italian translation, so i was able to translate it into english. Everyone can use this content for sharing, but please give the credits for first.
It's been over 10 years since I wrote "Welcome to the NHK". For me, the author, it was a damned novel, a curse that has plagued me until very recently.
From the moment I wrote it, I felt a sense of failure.
If you are wondering why I have to suffer, for a novel that I wrote with all my efforts, I can say that there are many motivations.
A first big reason is that I have betrayed the story, because I could not write what I wanted to write. I have been stucked for years in this sense of failure and frustration.
In Chapter 9 of "NHK" I realized that the protagonist feels and suffers of my own sadness. This is a valuable knowledge.
Until that time, the main character had never inspected into his own interiority. Then, in a moment, he climbs this wall in his heart and suddenly realizes his sadness. Nevertheless, in the next chapter, it begins a story that has completely removed this episode of unveiled solitude.
>>28050184
cont
The problem is that strangers start to snoop into the main character's loneliness: i'm refered to Misaki's story. This is an escape from the personal drama of loneliness. This escape from writing directly about loneliness is therefore also the author's escape. I used the "race" method with which they are able to finish the story, entrusting myself to how I felt at that moment. The "race" method is a technique that, using an emotional sense of urgency, it makes the characters "run" to get into the climax. In the last chapter, the protagonist runs, quarrels, makes a little action and through that, he reaches catharsis. Then, the story ends.
Instead, the problem of loneliness remains unresolved, because I have not written anything about it.
At that time, I did not have the ability to write about loneliness. Even now it is not obvious to have it. Therefore, I wonder whether the conclusion that I found was the best possible ...
Died or not, the final indifference of Sato and Misaki is very realistic.
But didn't wanted to write a realistic story...
I'm too tired to live
>>28050095
Uni / college is too damn laid back for me. Important information is withheld until the last god damn minute.
will he make a sequel?
this time Sato has gone back to NEET-MGTOW mode because Misaki went after BBC and became a single mother
>>28050201
>Uni / college is too damn laid back for me. Important information is withheld until the last god damn minute.
I've had an internship at an academic research institute before, and I completely know what you mean. A lot of people in the academic fields have issues with communication and time management, since they're so used to their own schedule practices. It's nice because it creates a laid-back environment sometimes (although other times it creates stress too), but it really made me aware of how inefficient academics can be. And it's very frustrating when vital information is being delayed because of this.
>>28050262
i doubt it. he can't write anymore like before, he's into spirituality now
> mfw about to leave this miserable existence any day now
>>28050184
>>28050199
Great that you got a translation.
> the final indifference of Sato and Misaki is very realistic.
This I like so much.
>>28050415
>tfw we won't know if you succeed
feels very bad ;_;
>>28050184
>>28050199
I kinda feel bad for him. In the second afterword of the novel he even said, that he's become a NEET who lives of the money he made from Welcome to the NHK and is disappointed by himself. He sounds depressed af and hasn't written anything besides a very short manga in the past 10+ years.
> mfw neither of us have a Misaki
>another week without a stream
at least you bothered to show up this time, it's truly disappointing that my standards have slipped so low that this seems like any form of achievement.
>>28050520
anon i-i streamed last week ;_;
>>28050046
Well, well, well...What do we have here?
Just a bunch ofdumbmisakiposters
>>28050741
hello misakidumbposters, how are you?
>>28050815
Oh, and I'm perfectly fine.
Can you say the same, anon?
hey guys i need your advice.
my friend is constantly talking about killing himself and i have no idea what i am supposed to do since i dont know how serious he is about this and i also dont know how to react to it. i try to comfort him but i feel like it is not working
>>28050894
n-no ;_; but i'll be a neet again, you pepeposter-kun
Any idea for when the next stream is planned?
>>28050929
If he is talking a lot about it he probably won't do it.
Just deal with it for now, he'll be fine.
>>28050294
Yeah, at best it's laid back, at worst it's an unorganized mess.
>>28050262
not many bbcs in japan
not even that many bwcs
>>28050944
I wouldn't worry about it too much, anon.
After all, they do say that night follows even the brightest day. Not that I would expect dumb misakiposters to understand metaphorical langauge or anything.
>>28050977
maybe next week, it depends on how tired i am anon
>>28051012
do you consider us better than rose or katya fags at least?
>>28051012
Inbo frogposter
>>28051075
I have contempt for the Rosefags and Katyafags since they are beholden to girls who neither know about nor care about their existence, and yet they bring into the public sphere what should be kept private.
...so I guess you're about on the same level as them, eh?
>>28050046
im trying to make pancackes for like the fifth time. I never had pancackes and always wanted to try them.
I wish i had a microwave so i could melt the butter instead of waiting
Conspiracies, dreams and....frogs..
>>28051167
>same level
>same
anon no, they are roasties
>>28051209
post your food anon
>>28051214
i thought pepe died already? isn't he a facebook meme right now?
>>28051209
Is it working out? I usually eat mine with jam.
Butter and syrup isn't to my liking.
>tfw will never bake a lot of pancakes to cheer Misaki up
>>28051254
Yeah, normies taking over /r9k/. It's a conspiracy.
>>28051209
pancakes are easy
400g flour
200g sugar
1 small pack of vanilla sugar
>mix those
>add
4 eggs
100 ml water
400 ml milk
>ontop of it and mix it all together
>>28051279
They have already taken over. Am I safe on page 9
>>28051254
>>28051279
currently waiting for butter to melt so i can add it to the mix, i probably wont post pictures because im deeply ashamed of the state of my kitchen.
I have caramel and im going to make mocha cream for them
>>28051334
>tfw watching cooking channels on tv
>tfw no talent to cook at all>tfw no talent for anything
>>28050046
Haven't been outside or talked to someone my own age in months. Wonder how I'll know if misaki ever shows up when I don't have a fucking doorbell
>>28051376
don't worry MCF - you have one thing that you are good at ... and should do more regularly
>>28051314
Use sparkling water to make them super fluffy!
>>28051376
You have a talent for making my friday nights enjoyable.
>>28051411
>Wonder how I'll know if misaki ever shows up when I don't have a fucking doorbell
You won't.
Because she won't.
>>28051376
trust me, you can cook
literally all it takes is following instructions. literally if you can measure both time and volume, you're capable cooking like 80% of all things
>>28051411
How do you not have a doorbell?
Misaki would throw pebbles at your window.
You DO have a window, right?
>>28051376
btw, i hacked your twitch streaming id and am now starting to stream nhk on your channel since you don't do it yourself
>>28051411
dorbell rang this morning but i didnt check because i stayed awake until 5 am
i blew it didnt i?
>>28051414
you mean streaming? well literally anybody can do that nowadays anon
>>28051460
i don't think so, specially lately i feel so normie
>>28051493
i can't cook an egg or rice or anything it doesn't come out right, i don't know why. i think it's easy and all but after i taste it's just not good anon.
>>28051411
how old are you anon?
>>28051516
ha you made me check it, nice shitpost anon
>>28051571
;_;
>>28051478
its ok i wasnt expecting an anime character to show up at my door anyway
>>28051507
it broke and too much of a NEET to buy/install a new one. + less awkward door encounters that i wont experience because ill never know they were there.
also its not like im expecting anyone to visit me anyway
>>28051636
very close to sato's age kill me
>>28051636
> i think it's easy and all but after i taste it's just not good anon
Honestly I want to say that's just psychological... like... when I write a story or something, it's never good. Even if there are shittier stories around, they seem better than mine just because I made it.
And I get the feeling you have the same thing. Because you literally can't fuck up an egg without it being obvious before you eat it. It is not possible. >_<
>>28051636
maybe you have a fucked up stove? after i got my kitchen remade the oven got really fucking potent. I cant cook anything with it because it incinerates everything in 5 minutes at the lowest setting. I have to call and get it fixed
>>28051649
>no doorbell
Consider me jealous. I nearly suffer a heartattack everytime someone rings that thing.
I usually don't answer.
>>28051675
>tfw older than Satou
>>28051636
>>28051681
Maybe he just has to find the right thing for his tastebuds?
>>28051695
That is one badass stove. Hitler would be proud.
i fucked up the pancakes again.
The batter is too liguid. How could this happen? i followed the recipe
http://www.marthastewart.com/316822/old-fashioned-pancakes
>>28051746
at least my pizza guy is cool dont even look him in the face just give him the money and eat my pizza
thats probably the closest i get to talking to someone
also with lots of free time and no doorbell i just constantly check outside for a motorcycle to see if hes there
>>28051675
>younger than sato
y-you still have a chance, it's over once you are +25 tho
>>28051681
i get what you mean, but i don't think i can get into it, also i don't believe in myself, i don't think i would ever make something that i would really enjoy eating
>>28051695
i didn't, otherwise i would be homeless right now
>>28051822
Keep it in mind next time and use less liquid. Bam, you've fixed some shitty online recipe and made your own.
>>28051826
You open the door for the pizza guy before he arrives at your doorstep?
>>28051636
>>28051875
i am re-downloading the nhk ... also installed and setup obs ... might stream it later ... or somewhere in the future
>>28051875
>y-you still have a chance, it's over once you are +25 tho
I didn't realise you were such an old man, anon.
How old are you exactly?
>>28051918
i added about 1/4 cup of flour and now it seems ok
>>28051939
27 this year anon ;_;
>>28051927
i'll watch it anon, it doesn't have to be me always streaming right? you guys can stream anything too
>>28051940
Well done! I completely forgot that you can just add more flour.
>>28051981
>27 this year anon ;_;
My, oh my, oh my. I was just starting to think that I was the oldest person in these threads, but you have me beat.
Hey, look on the bright side: at least you're statistically likelier to die sooner than the rest of us.

>>28052032
its hard to believe i'm almost that age, i feel like i finished highschool literally 2 years ago
>Hey, look on the bright side: at least you're statistically likelier to die sooner than the rest of us.
i hope so anon
>>28052055
it works, it's good anon
>>28051918
no i just wait for him to get off the bike and knock before i open the door.
its all planned out
>>28052176
Better get used to it, anon. You and me are both nearly a decade away from current students graduating from high school.
You're more out of touch than you've ever been and that's only going to increase.
Ok. How do I know if I fucked this up? First one was really crispy so I lowered the heat and a free a bit more milk
>>28052585
first one usually ends up bad anyway ... it's like a common law of the universe or something
>>28052605
i know the batter is ok becaue it tastes really good even tho i want expecting it to be that salty.
I know have to figuro out how to cook them
>>28052689
less salt next time then ... salt is really just there to enhance the sugars sweetness - you shouldnt taste the salt at all
>>28052585
Did you use oil?
Don't use oil.
>>28052709
i was just joking, they are not salty.
They are still not pancackes tho, they are a little too bread like if that makes any sense.
They are tasty and fully coocked tho so its my best attempt yet.
thing is you wouldnt expect pancackes to be hard to make but we make creppes here instead and there is some sorth of big cultural barrier
Just a couple more weeks of lectures and finishing up papers and essays, and exam season will finally begin. I always find exam time much more relaxing, since I can just stay in my dorm or go to the library and study the coursework, instead of having to do all these labs and workshops.
I did really well with not procrastinating this academic year, and I finished my 2500 paper way early, which is very relaxing. I'll even be able to get early feedback which will lead to a nice grade.
I convinced my parents that I won't have to get a summer job this year, so I'll be able to spend 3 months just relaxing and doing what I want. It's gonna be a good year.
How is everybody else's year going?
>>28052959
I'm going to quit a course I just took because it's just too retarded.
I have to deal with holding presentations somehow
I'm not actually interested in most of my courses
End me
>>28052959
>inished my 2500 paper way early
i never did my work early nor on time. Im thinking about going to college to get a ccoding deegree but i have been a neet for 5 years so its going to be brutal
>>28053014
>I'm going to quit a course I just took because it's just too retarded.
Which course is it?
>I have to deal with holding presentations somehow
I hate presentations. My mouth always dries up when speaking in large groups of people. I still don't know how I survived my bachelor thesis defence unharmed, and I'm not looking forward to repeat that experience with my master's.
>I'm not actually interested in most of my courses
Honestly, I'm not in a field I'm passionate about either. I picked engineering because "that's where the jobs are", but I wish I could be a academic mathematician or art historian instead. Those two fields are truly interesting to me, but give almost no work security whatsoever.
>End me
Don't do it. I bombed out of college once myself. You can always pick up the tracks later, or learn a trade. Apparently tradesmen get paid really well and have built-in job security. I would have gone for it myself if I did not have a snobby desire for a master's degree to finally be able to show that I'm "intelligent" to other people.
>>28053234
>Which course is it?
Preperation for a foreign semester. It's run by some fag who does it part time and has the audacity to give us homework each week. I'm only in it because I thought I'd get easy credits. To get the credits we have to attend and do a week long workshop which is in the same week as the finals.
Whoever planned this should be flogged.
I admire that you have the will to study something useful and get a masters degree, too.
>>28050046
What happened to you hosting streams? Can't do that anymore?
>>28053100
>i never did my work early nor on time.
Neither did I. Procrastination has been a long time fault of mine, especially since I could always last-night wing it in high school, validating that it was an OK thing to do.
>Im thinking about going to college to get a ccoding deegree but i have been a neet for 5 years so its going to be brutal
One of the more daunting aspects of college is the degree of socialisation you need to participate in, because a lot of classes include some kind of mandatory teamwork component, whether it's labs, writing papers together or doing group presentations. It can really get tiring, although my social anxiety has decreased because of it. This is why I enjoy exams much more, since that's just solo working your way through the books and you are allowed to be a shut-in during that time.
>>28053338
>Preperation for a foreign semester.
Are you going abroad? I went on a foreign internship for 4 semesters and it literally is the best decision I have made in my life, even though I was scared and regretting it when I had to travel there. I learned so much about myself, and it gave me a confidence boost that I'm still running for myself.
>I admire that you have the will to study something useful and get a masters degree, too.
Mostly because out of the twofold combination of my vanity of wanting a public token of 'intelligence', as well as the snobby desire of me not personally wanting to work in a blue-collar job. Everyone I know would think it "beneath me", and I would not be able to stand that level of scrutiny.
So on I must go.
>>28053421
living the normie life anon, i can't do it in my current state, being a wagecuck isn't easy
>>28053437
Well, I wanted to go abroad. Pretty much the only reason why I enrolled in the first place.
Too bad they never told me until recently that you need top-of-the-line grades to get selected.
>>28051649
I doubt you really want one but you can get a cheapshit China made doorbell for 10 usd. And you plug the chimebox into an outlet so you can decide if you want it on or not.
>>28051981
Neet mobile internet plan. It actually would be possible but too many apps to make it work.
>>28053584
>Too bad they never told me until recently that you need top-of-the-line grades to get selected.
Damn that sucks. I went with the European ERASMUS programme, which only requires a motivational letter.
Are there any bad consequences if you quit a course?
>>28053772
I won't have enough credits and will have to earn then sometime later meaning an extra semester or something.
I don't really care, though. I'm trying to fulfill my badass delinquent fantasies.
>>28053581
YOU a wagecuck? No disrespect but I am somewhat surprised.
Is waging better than neetdom for you or just a different kind of hell?
I'm always late to the threads I end up enjoying.
>>28053864
i would say it's worse, in the neet life you just have to deal with the instability, because you know it will end someday.
>>28053905
i wish i was neet ;_; to be here until 8am
>>28053845
>I'm trying to fulfill my badass delinquent fantasies.
Whenever I hear the term delinquent, I think of Cromartie High.
>>28053905
>I'm always late to the threads I end up enjoying.

Should I pick up the LN for NHK? I really wanna pick up where the anime ended.
>>28054517
The anime covers the entire LN and even adds some new things.
It's still worth a read solely for the entirely different atmosphere it has.

It doesnt pick up after the anime
