At least she appears more Cynical rather than just being a shut in like most stereotypes. Her response to Haida is honestly the best its a simple yet difficult question. "I could, but why should I?" Its such a flat give me a good reason, but leaves one who just goes with the motions of everyday life a moment to ponder and reflect that their ambitions and reasons cannot be pushed onto someone else who may have it different even if its only on the difference in outlooks.
look, i can believe dating a CEO, joining an idol group, and somehow being dragged into running for senate, but haidas online buddy being a cute goth girl? season 5 really jumped the shark on that one.
A familiar outlook. I'm happy enough where I am and with what I have, regardless how "little" it is, I don't care much for other's opinions on my life either, and the world has gone to scat anyways. So why should I change? Too bad she's chosen the tail side of the nihilist coin, it's a lot less depressing when you choose to have a little fun in spite.
Guys its just a hunch but does she work as a "night worker"? I've seen documentaries where young people in Japan with 'menhera' tend to work those jobs while living in mangakisa internet cafes, either way its a very sad reality
I can't belive Sanrio made a character who I wanted to hug during the whole season and now we will never see her again 🙁 The final season is not the time to introduce new characters
Don't forget, not only is this realistic cor many people, many countries actually participate in worker slavery 😀 never EVER give up your passport EVER to an employer, you will not get it back and you will be trapped.
When Haida was trying to reach back out to her and realized she no longer goes to the net cafe. I initially thought they implied she committed suicide. The reason being that she could not hang out with Haida since he was moving to better things.
When we are first introduced to her, she was constantly getting on Haida to play with her. She was probably lonely and just enjoy playing with Haida when he is not working. She looked out for him as a friend, but maybe had a bit of a romantic interest. When aggretsuko found him and got him to move in with her. She can be seen looking for another raid partner, as Haida was probably forced to stop playing to focus on getting back on his feet. (Maybe also limit interactions as he is in a relationship) Thankfully she was still around, but they definitely should have explorer her more. Maybe a spinoff series?
0:25 I have a question for those that understand formal and informal Japanese. When I took a Japanese 101 course, I was taught that one could state their name or profession using the phrase "Watashi wa [NAME] desu".
When Shikabane introduces herself with a mere "Watashi Shikabane", without the 'wa' or 'desu', how does that come across to the native Japanese speakers? Are the subtitles really accurate? Does it come more across like caveman speech like "Me am Shikabane" ? Or would it be more like an aloof hipster not wanting to follow all of the grammatical rules so they say "Sup, name's Shikabane" ?
This season was so all over the place, they coulda just randomly put shikabane up with tadano. Either open ended possible romance, or ffs tadano hiring her (and all the other Internet cafe residents he put out).

Fun fact: Shikabane means "corpse" in Japanese
Death Note vibes 💀

Literally everyone in the comments:
" Forgive me Lord…. For I have Simped "
She's such a loser but I like her. Glad she got forced out of that hell hole and starting to live again.
And the funny part is she reminds me of stocking
Doesn't 'shikabane' mean corpse? 😬

Man I'll miss Aggretsuko. One of the best anime ever
They really wasted this character. She represents a very large demographic in Japan that needed to see her story through
Th perfect cut doesnt exi-
She's 21 brooo.
Ooh, what if someone made a cover of her singing "Burn my dread" from Persona 3.
The fact that she’s a skunk is just perfect character design.
I know a Donkey we gotta introduce her to. Maybe
She just looks like Marnie from Pokemon

Take care, yeah?
No mention of what became of her afterwards. A waste of a good character, horrible series finale
She has a cute design, but damn is she gloomy
Smash

i still can't get over how she almost looks like a Mii at 1:27
Ngl, I'm just about this close to doing what she did, I ain't got big goals anyway
Damn, I really wish her to get a better life before the series ends
this just reminded me i never finished shikibane hime
Top ten "Anime characters you want so badly to be friends with"

Your stuff is awsome
Depressed skunk
