Poor Yutaro, one second he was regular teenager, second later he became 30 years old "adult" who was catalyst for completely changing how society works in Japan... I dunno how I would handle this shit.

honestly it is really fucked up situation... wonder if we will see corruption, like people who shouldn't be "adults" but are thanks to money and connections, giving away "adulthood"/"credits" for some "benefits", deranking/silencing people who are too good to be "adults".

Overall beyond ridiculous but interesting premise so I hope author will not go to pure absurdity to the point of comedy/parody or make it boring to read.
As far prediction, I think Yutaro will try to achieve true/number one "adult" status and abolish this system.


I will personally only add that authors would be really smart if they show that many citizens are trying to escape Japan creating super strong demographic crisis but people are too afraid to said this.

Ok very interesting start. It's the Truman show but in Japan. The Taro show? also it's everyone being observed not just him right? Would that black mirror epiosde be better comaprison? Definitely one of the stronger starts I've seen recently. Love the whole premise the art the characters everything so far. Really excited to see the next chapter.

So ranked adult hood along with constant surveillance everywhere. 20 million cameras in Tokyo that's like 20x what Beijing has right now. There's no privacy but I'm sure there's probably a blind spot. I wonder if even bathrooms are a given filled with cameras? Or at least you can get some privacy in there. Dystopia is one of my favorite genres but I haven't read too many mangas with that theme.

Yutaro is currently ranked Adult 6 and the next is tier 5 which gives the right to vote. I wonder if there's more rights withhold in this society? Also would doing it with someone that's not like a certain ranked adult count as doing something illegal with a minor? Like even that lady Misato whatever was hoping to be a proper adult right? so would she count as underaged? Age is just a number here so would a higher ranked 17 year old be legal but an older lower ranked adult be illegal? I wonder if there's any goofy cases like a 9 year old being an adult higher ranked than their parents or something

Also while Truck kun failed to isekai him and the cat he's still kinda got isekai'd into a Dystopian world.

This whole premise really reminds me of 20th century boys. Curious how it's going to develop
