i also have a problem with that, though. In fact, i think the project would actually increase the number of suicides, which the series argues it does not, which i feel as unrealistic.
the number of people who fall into depression would increase because of the reasons i mentioned and, overall, the whole thing would be counter-productive to what they are trying to do.

To me, the problem is that, alongisde addiction, Japan appears to have a different vision of the issue than we do(that or only this series). this series seems to be under the impression that suicide happens because the person does not appreciate life enough, not understanding what depression actually does to the individual that drives them to commit suicide.
