Hikikomori: Difference between revisions

{{examples}}

 

* Pictured above: Japan from ''[[Axis Powers Hetalia]]'' refers to himself as a hikikomori in the strip alluding to Comodore Perry's arrival to Japan. Meeting the Americans after 200 years of isolation terrifies him so much that he almost has an [[Heroic BSOD]] at the mere idea of speaking to them.

** The strips with isolationist!Japan and Netherlands confirm this, as Japan locks himself in his room constantly and when Netherlands steps in he panicks and screams that he doesn't even want the sunlight to touch him. He even automatically curls up in a ball on the floor whenever he hears the word "open".

* At her introduction, Shiemi Moriyama from ''[[Blue Exorcist|Ao No Exorcist]]'' is one of these, but she overcomes it by the end of her introductory chapter.

* Chisame in ''[[Mahou Sensei Negima]]'' apparently becomes one after high school for a few years, but later joins Negi's {{spoiler|Mars terraformation project}} as an adivsor. She already had something of the personality in the series, but wasn't as much of a recluse as these types usually are.
