no guarantee he's gonna die, they can always pull something random like the radiologist had the wrong scan or something.

I hope they don't do that. this show will be a lot better if he is with them till the end and the series ends on a very emotional Mc death

Your wording makes it seem like you are saying 'people with terminal illness, who know they will die soon, shouldn't make new friends or try new interests or get help from anyone, because they soon will be dead anyway'. And that's kinda... you know... ':// Kinda not it.

I think this is exactly the point - to make the best of the moments you have left before it's time for you to go. He should be expiriencing all that his life still has to offer, rather than just locking himself up at his house to wait for his end alone doing nothing.

I agree with your point, but how is standing by a river with a stick and some string making the most of his remaining time? And also, after getting bailed out of debt and given a home, maybe he could confide in his new friends so his eventual declining health doesn’t come as a shock to them.

since it's original it's unknown what's in the end this anime about. but there is a big issue here: in episode 3 mc accepted big help from kind people knowing he's gonna die soon, and for me it's really hard and irrelevant to enjoy looking at him learning fishing and bonding with likable fun characters, having a good time and getting that false hope. he knows if he's gonna make bonds with other people in the end he's gonna hurt them and it's gonna hurt him too, he's being selfish here which is understandable, i think this is gonna be covered in later episodes.
