Story about an adult as they try to live as they would like to despite aging and struggling with both their aim and interractions with the world around them. Both protagonist also write manga in those manga. Both manga also have more cartoonish artstyle that is atypical for manga. 

The story of unsuccesfull middle-aged manga author, his attempts at breaking through and how this struggle affects his relationship with other people.  

Both stories center around a male protagonist, trying to get a handle on his life. Oguro (I'll Give It My All... Tomorrow) and Satou (Welcome to the NHK) are both, despite their efforts, considered to be failures by those around them, struggling with work, relationships and aspirations. Both series can be quite demoralising, at times, though offset their bleak themes with humour (though, 'I'll Give It My All' is arguably far dryer). If you found one male lead relatable, then you're likely to connect (in some way) with the other, as well.
