Not a particularly serious attempt at understanding the phenomena of hikikomori.The hostess was uninformed, often condescending and her dull question led nowhere.

Whenever i step out of my room all my parents have to tell me is either how well my cousins are doing or why i am not meeting their expectations. I never spent more than 1/2 an hour a day talking to my parents fearing they might bring my academics performance up. I tried telling them which path i would like to chose as my career but they wont support me. So basically the only option i have is to shut myself out of their lives.

@tehsilentsoul ironically, the father of one of the hikikomoris near the end of this video spoke english better than the host girl.
