I heard recently that the US is an odd one out with the somewhat widespread expectation that kids become completely independent after turning 18, and that places like Japan encourage living with one’s family until marriage. But all anime I’ve seen with characters older than 18 have those characters living on their own or with just a significant other and/or kids. I can only think of one exception (Mushoku Tensei), but there is an implication that the character hasn’t moved out only because he is mentally unwell and a complete loser.
Why are these anime so few and far between? Or have I just not seen enough?
