Didn't they make an Animal Crossing anime? I would think paying off a mortgage should feature prominently in that.

It's a trap, just like Harvest Moon - you are exchanging the urban office for a rural one

BREAK FREE OF THE SYSTEM!!!!

Not really a fantasy, let alone a power fantasy. Plus that excludes all of the adults who simply rent, etc.

I'm mostly just annoyed that the plots basically go School -> office work -> ?exists?

And those that are different are usually super hero stuff

The Adult Male fantasy is coming home to a wife who loves him, children who want to spend time with him that he can teach back, friends he can enjoy relaxing with, in a house that's his own.

I'd almost say King of the Hill is the Adult Male Power Fantasy.

That's cause in japan the enjoyable part of your life ends when you enter the workforce.

That said, there are some where getting money is the goal and they eventually achieve it, like konosuba.

That's generally going to be better for your bottom line, but there's something to be said for the quality of life improvement that comes from being debt-free, even if it ends up being financially suboptimal. One should do the math to see just how much potential income is being given up by paying off the mortgage (or other low-interest loans) quickly, since it will often be a pretty substantial difference, but sometimes, it can be worth it.

Yeah. fyi Lokarin there is "daily lives" anime that exists like that; Lucky Star for example.

But I guess that is the cool thing about anime is the variety. You can watch Paranoia Agent for the disturbing **** and then turn on Super Milk Chan.
