About Raising a Happy NEET
Raising a Happy NEET puts you in the role of a caretaker for Shizuku, a withdrawn NEET girl whose parents vanished. Through everyday conversations and shared activities you gradually open her heart, helping her discover personal dreams and a reason to look forward to the future.
The game blends a Japanese‑style interactive SLG with a Life Wisdom System that lets you guide Shizuku’s growth. By working, buying books and food, and deepening your bond, new walks and special interactions appear, creating a gentle, healing narrative.

Story & Characters
Shizuku’s background is defined by the disappearance of her parents and a series of relocations among relatives before she arrives at your home.
