Net-juu no Susume shows us the struggles of life of a 30 years old woman who has had "enough" of it all. Anime about adults are not very common which makes this anime special in it's own way.

The story starts with our 30 years old maincharacter "Morioka Moriko" who has quit her job and starts her life as a gamer, or as she calls it, she becomes an "Elite Neet".
What is noticeable about this anime is the fact that the game she plays comes alive in the anime. The gamecharacters show their own story, not like they are in a game but as if the anime itself was truly set in an alternate world. The gamecharacters have their own voices, different from the people who play them, and because of this Net-juu no Susume shows us two worlds: The real world and the game world. This anime switches on a good base between real life and the game world, which gives it this unique vibe.

Another good thing about Net-juu no Susume is the story progression. It's not just set on showing the daily life of our maincharacters but more as to how their daily lives develop and how it keeps developing into something greater. It's incredible well written and every episode just makes you want to see more and more.

The character development of the maincharacters is also great, especially for Morioka. Morioka's character development is incredible because in these 10 episodes she transforms from a woman who didn't take care of herself at all and kept gaming, to someone who takes care of herself and found a reason to live in real life again, instead of hiding herself in the game world. Sakurai also needs to be mentioned, he didn't have as much characterdevelopment, however you will see that over the time he grows into a stronger person with stronger feelings. Hayashi and Lily are the gamecharacters, you can't really include them into the development thing as they are just... well... gamecharacters.
The supporting characters also have a strong influence towards the character development of the maincharacters, and there's not even one supporting character that you'd want to miss. Because of their appearances the story went the direction it went, which is a good one.

Overall is Net-juu no Susume a really good and unique anime that I'd personally recommend to anyone
