>>228994Lucky Star i'm not so sure qualifies, given:
More than one of the older succubi characters are shown to be in dead end careers/relationships or "losers"
Konata's mom dying was a significant factor
There's more than one instance of "classism" in the agitator's sense and it's intentionally highlighted
the Boke Tsukkomi routines are occasionally more mean spirited
Lucky Star is I think far more a gag manga derivative, where the goal is to manufacture contrast and comedic conflict, whereas plain Moeshit and CGDCT shows "a better world" and emphasises one small part of it
the one that *kills* me is Nonon-biyori, because it is a superb presentation of "a better world" that strikes particularly close to home as I had the benefit of living something very much like it on multiple axes. The contrast of having *lived* this and then been compelled to join the artificial rat race with its filth and machine induced hopelessness makes it much more obvious how someone could be convinced to fight for a reality like that.
If you've never experienced a peaceful, clean, safe, slow life with opportunities before you, respectable ancestors behind, and genuine optimism about the future, getting to experience it through fiction could be a traumatic experience that changes your world view.
It's why I can't finish Nononbiyori, it's painful to be reminded that once the good life it represents was real and common - and we can never have it again.
