Typically, a gaggle of single women from one office goes on a group blind date with men from another office.

Depressed single OL anime when.
In Japan, life must be dreadfully boring despite there being tons of manga and anime and merchandise and godzillas and rhodans and ultramen and supersentai and drama and comedies and funny dubbed foreign movies if they still keep crying on twitter.
>>151275778
maybe their work life is ultra-stressful thus need serious liberation like fucking
>>151275778
Never stopped to think that maybe there's a reason Japan seeks so much escapism in their media?
>>151275927
But that escapism is feeding a dreadful loop that keeps them in their unbearable solitude!
>>151275095
Depends on your class tho.
>>151275236
That's pretty nice, I wish I had someone who cares about me.

Don't be confused little human, there are beings that sees space and time as one.
Hopefully said depressed OL don't play MMO so we will get the isekai genre without the mmo-style world that I hate.

She gets the japanese cold and dies alone.

She drops her standards a little bit and settles for someone that isn't a 10/10 prince. They marry and live happily ever after. The end

OL is transported to the American branch of her company
obsessed with the new freedom given she ends up breaking away and starting her own company there. The rest of the anime plays like an American success story with the MC turning hilariously corrupt in the process
>>151280435
>169cm
Japs have weird standards.
Lightning in FFXIII is 179cm tall and is basically regarded as a giantess; meanwhile Akatsuki from Log Horizon is 150cm tall and is teased for it mercilessly.
That's a huge disparity in male reaction to a difference of only ~1ft in female height. What's normal to them then? 165ish cm?
Because if so they're getting oddly hung up on stature for a mere 15cm above or below the mean.
>>151291029
>obsessed with the new freedom given she ends up breaking away and starting her own company there. The rest of the anime plays like an American success story with the MC turning hilariously corrupt in the process
Does she fuck all her subordinates and get AIDS?
>>151291061
I don't try to make it a big deal. I don't even mention it unless they ask.
Then again I'm from a 3rd world country hellhole and most people have at least 3-4 children at my age so maybe that has something to do with it.
>>151291031
Not that anon, but imagine a race of short people, ALL of whom have a complex about their height. This is grorious Nippon.

Oh, I'm American. Maybe it's a cultural difference then.

Sounds like the recipe for a ton of office drama.

She enters a fantasy world where she has to grow her own food (some steps made convenient with magic a la Rune Factory), and the only other human contact she has is with the strapping young man that can give her even more convenient magic for her shipments.

Why not nuke the thread altogether?
>>151308556
Wow, it was 348 last I checked.
>>151307915
Yeah, but she still lives in a small apartment and most likely has no car. Living in a city in Japan must be damn expensive. Someone in that kind of position in the West would have much nicer living conditions.
I guess it depends what qualifications she has, but I would recommend her to learn English and get the fuck out of there.
>>151308564
Because office ladies are cute.
>>151308673
>most likely has no car
Japan's public transport is actually good, so you don't really need cars to commute to work.
>>151308564
Mods taking the effort to delete off topic comments instead of just nuking the thread is actually a good thing. For once they are actually being useful.
>>151308690
Well I discovered this short series thanks to this thread so it's not completely useless.
>>151308723
>200+ posts deleted
idk anon, there must be a point when you should just shoot the horse.
>>151308723
I appreciate the effort, however, with threads like these that aren't specifically about a particular title, once a thread goes off-course, it's not likely to go back on course since people are still continuing from what's been previously set.
>>151290093
Aaaaah....I humbly prostrate my unworthy, tainted and polluted body before this young master practitioner of self brainwashing personal reality altering sorcery in reverence.... Want to hug her and we can take turns to be the little spoon when lying together...
>>151308783
She only dates rich successful men.
>>151308692
True. But a car is a status symbol and also gives you lots of personal freedom. Instead of moping around in her empty room she could go out and travel to various places, maybe meet some people along the way, too. Doesn't have to be a car, could be a bike or something.
Basically, I think our OL should fill the void with some fun hobbies, instead of being depressed.
At least post the TL'd ones
>>151291031
Make that 171cm instead of 179.
>>151308830
>travel to various places
You been on the shinkansen? It's fantastic and pretty much gets you anywhere in Japan. Also, it isn't filthy like those trains in UK/America.
Seriously, in places like Japan, Taiwan and Singapore, you really don't have to depend on cars all that much. They really nailed it in terms of public transport.
>>151308881
>really nailed it in terms of public transport
That's an easy thing to do within such a tiny area.
>>151308835
>tfw no cute slice of life show about office cute ladies finding happiness
>>151308830
Son you don't understand. Cities outside the us are built to be livable without a car unlike in the u.s where essentially nothing is in walking distance.
>>151308934
This. The US is a big place and the big cities are far away from each other. It would cost too much to have a train system with Japanese standards. The whole US was also built around most people owning a car so much of the public transport system is seen as a poor people thing.
>>151308934
That's another issue entirely. The point is, car ownership isn't quite as important as in the context of western countries like the US.
>>151274490
>Feeling sorry for western women
>Ever
>>151308830
And then once she has a nice Mercedes or BMW and after a short while the self esteem factor of sticking it to Mr & Mrs Jones next door that she's alone but at least she's minted wears off .she ends up la little poorer in spirit having perhaps thought projection of money might perhaps be the thing to fill the hole, might b handy tool for status projection over similarly unfulfilled numbers in HR's data base 9 to 5 hard working under appreciated office worker... Is very true though a car does give you independent mobility, without one its like your wings have been clipped.

I don't know where you live and work, but I've never seen a business that hires a boatload of useless young women for the sole purpose of making copies, delivering coffee, and being available pieces of ass for your employees to marry so they stay loyal.
>>151308835
Even the sun looks like a splash of blood on her window.
>>151309194
It's just a holdover from Japanese feudal times where lords took care of their retainers right down to family business.
This is also why you have characters in anime where they say shit like "my family has served master's family for generations".
They're also fans of the "take care of your friends/objects/environment and they will take care of you" philosophy.

This is imposible. As soom as they put the OL uniform they giive up on happiness, and the only comfort is one night stand with they coworkers.

Yes agree with this in a place like HK it would almost be looked at as irresponsable to drive your personal vehicle to work adding to congestion. Using private transport isnt the norm. >>151309254
