Admittedly, I currently am have hikikomori lifestyle; I rarely go out to do much activities or go to events (being in US tho, there is hardly anything interesting to a Japanophile like me) but I really should get on with at least exercise majority of my week. I have my computer and a few Japanese language games in my room with a book shelf and bedside table stacked with JPN manga (that I do my current best to read) ncluding some basic JPN workbooks and textbooks for when tutor comes.

At the moment, I spend most my time exploring the net indulging myself in anime and manga and keep a large canister of drinking water near for hydration. Typically I just look at Yuri-related stuff or play a Yuri VN but I also like rewatching anime I like.
I've lately being trying to get into a better habit of studying more on my subjects, tho I know doing so will take away precious time I have for fun/entertainment.
Additionally, I spend lots of my time, while watching anime to reference, what sort of job is something to do in the future since we don't live in a star trek non-tax world right now.

i'm currently studying abroad so my already small world became even smaller, because my sense of orientation is pretty bad i don't wander off too far in fear i won't find my way home
so i spend most of my free time indoor lazing around, reading manga, or playing video games
so a totally ordinary peaceful life
:casserole:

Gonna break the introvert streak here by saying that I'm a healthy 19-year old male who goes on daily morning and evening jogs with my dogs, enjoys my walk to school with my beautiful classmates, all this while being in the student council and being on the way to be the ace of the basketball club.w

Nah, that's not true. I'm more of an indoors type with my books and writing materials strewn around me. But I wouldn't really say I'm a hikkikomori. That label is pretty extreme imo and isn't really something to be proud of, pretty much like 'otaku', 'hanzaisha' and 'madao'.

Are you a hikkikomori? Checking all the boxes qualifies you for the role. Congratulations!

I like staying indoors and just relax, watch animes or play video games but I'm actually pretty active irl.

I go to College studying Hospitality & Management and Business & Marketing.
I'm also looking for a job as a Chef
I go to the gym 4-5 days a week. (gotta get buffed yo! xD)
And I'm thinking about taking Japanese language courses. xD (Need more money first though. :/)

My social life isn't the best because I don't go out much but I enjoy parties and nightclubs a lot. (I'm not socially awkward so yay! xD)
Plus I think I'm going to be an active member on this forum so this is another thing that will affect my social life. ^_^
Though like I said I prefer staying indoors :runhappy:

How else would most of us be able to find time to type frequently on this NetForum, right? Lol

Agree. :D

Me, few years ago, i spent most of my time for indoor activities. I was a NEET back then :D. ( since i don't have problem with physical communication with the other, the opposite, i like meeting my friends in cafe and chat chit ^^; so i'm not hikikomori. )
I'm not extrovert type and i like being alone, enjoy myself with game, anime, manga...ect. I don't have many friends but all of them are closed to me.
Now, my old lifestyle changed a lot since i opened an office with my friends about 1 year ago. Time for chat chit with my friends increase in exchange for decrease time for my hobby...
At least i'm happy with my life now!!!!

P/s: My activity on AS is a must. Well, i like to be here, check the news.... The other word, you guys are a part of my life. I hope you feel the same. ^^

I will admit to being a little of both...

Was a concert sound engineer for a long time traveling the world with many different bands before retiring and opening my own business then ran into health issues and sold the company (for a nice profit :D ) and now full time retired at 47 :P

Health issues resolved and now spend my time playing on the internet and enjoying my country living on my 49 acres quiet life with son and grandson. :)


I enjoy the quiet of my house but sometimes like to fly to the Florida Keys to relax and watch the bikinis walking around.. ;)
 
Reading books and playing games and watching movies and when the weather outside is nice
Then I'm out to hunt a make pictures of things I find beautiful
 
I'm kind of like a "Hikikomori." NOTE: The keyword is kind of. But I do go out from time-to-time and socialise with family and friends...I mostly socialise with my own family. Kinda like an Otaku/Hikikomori or whatever? Not good. I've been like this for quite a few years because of depression and anxiety issues...

Well I guess I kind of been a Hikkikomori ever since I was a fifth grader.
Pretty much due to depression issues though to be frank.
I talk to my family and socialize or get along with them pretty well. But I don't have any friends (pretty much a black sheep in a herd of white sheep in my college.)
But I have to study in order to keep my grades up and my future too. I am fine with talking to teachers because they are like my parents but not to my classmates.

I can easily associate myself as much as a recluse/hikikomori as much as the next person. The outside world holds nothing of interest for me.
Don't get me wrong though, I work hard at my job, but aside from that there's nothing for me outside.

Pretty relaxing, I like meeting new people everyday, usually spending my time outdoors with friends and such, well normal stuff I guess.
 
I'm busy proactively trying to be a superhuman on my terms. Everyone here seems nice :)
 
Outdoor: mostly training as in Kickboxing.
Inside: home cinema with projector & 7.1 surround bought from a cinema in town.
Play games on different platform but most chill with PS4 and Big Picture on Steam.
Anime: Lastly Mob Psycho 100 has been the greatest for me this year.
I must stay healthy consider my sickness. I don't want a miserable pension
 
Myerrs-Briggs tells me I'm an INTJ which is usually described as a strategist or mastermind. Since I've been playing table-top miniature wargames for years, this makes sense. Also, my friends have no trouble noticing I'm an introvert.
