Is there any anime that depicts a doomer? Welcome to NHK is the closest I can think of with the hikikomori main character.

I feel like Gantz gives has doomer vibes. A lot of mid 2000s anime does though.

Gantz fits. Maybe moreso the manga. The ending of Pluto also feels kind of doomerish? Or maybe thats just depression.

Yeah I feel like the doomer vibe can swerve off in a lot of different directions like incel, introvert, and just depressed

Cyberpunk dystopia, main character who is constantly suffering, no music (only ambient sounds), pretty much no smiles

THE doomer anime.

Really? It does have a soundtrack that consists of two entire discs. But it's been a while so I don't remember the series in detail that well.

I've watched a little over half of the show...it has some music, but much of it is pretty ambient. Maybe there is more music in the latter half.

Ah ok, kinda depends on your definition of music then I guess, lol.

Devilman Crybaby sounds like that
