It's an anime for the: "I don't like anime, but..." crowd.
> Omg I go home everyday after work/school and play vidya and sleep I'm such a NEET xddd

Japanese hate for their flaws to be pointed out and exposed. It's disrupting the façade of social harmony, which is unresponsible, unsociable and anti-Japanese.

Japan: "ugh this is terrible our lives suck so much stop reminding us"
West: "our lives may suck, but at least we're not NEETs in Japan"

I liked it because the lead was relatable and could see own self-destructive habits played out (in an exaggerated anime way) in his actions. I liked the music and generally the characters just resonated with me, all of the over-the-top sappy moments hit their mark (for me) instead of being weirdly awkward and cringy, even if that's what they also were.

Amazing how hard it hits even after doing better than Satou eh?
