Adult life as described through anime

You graduate from college.

Goodbye friends! Goodbye life I've known for the past 4 years!

You're ready to take on the world.

Yoshi! Ikuzo!

Time to get that dream job.

Ooh! Me! Pick me!

But it turns out....you don't have enough experience.

...

Well, maybe that dream house/apartment?

Ah, piece of cake, right?

Oh wait. You can't do that without a job.

So close...

Well. Next best option. It's better than living by the river on government cheese.

It's dark and a little damp, but hey, it's home!

Don't forget to learn to cook!

Potatoes. Pancakes. STARCH.

It may take a while....

Wut happened to my cake.

So don't forget to treat yourself out once in a while!

omigosh, food tastes good. It. Tastes.

You learn that making bentos is a lot of fun. (And way cheaper!)

Here you go, dear husband.

Also, cleaning is a thing.

Honey? I think the sink overflowed again...and the toilet.....and the tub.

So are bugs.

Bedbugs...ants.....fleas.......

Time to take public transportation to work!

AAAAHH! I need to catch the next bus!!!

Two part time jobs? Bring it on!

Good afternoon. How may I be of assistance?

Gasp! An interview??

Please oh please oh please oh please

But someone else had more experience. And another degree.

Seriously?

There's also an opening for a shweet apartment that's more affordable. But you can't break your current lease for another 4 months.

Whyyyyyyy.

Sometimes, it's just hard.

You cry more that you thought you would.

A lot more.

And get way more angry than you thought you would.

Why are all the things so dumb???

But somehow, there's always Someone, somewhere, to cheer you up.

To calm you down.

Just to be there for you.

Things really aren't so bad.

Emotions...

 Well ok. They're still annoying.

Oh yeah. The student loan grace period expires.

But if you remember to look Up...

...life really is beautiful.

So don't worry.

There really are people cheering for you.

Saints, anyone?

Don't be afraid to live that imperfectly perfect happy ending.
