In English, hikikomori (引きこもり or ひきこもり) translates literally to "pulling inward" or "being confined/shutting oneself away," and refers to extreme social withdrawal. I had to check what Hikikomori meant in English. This song is meaningful to a lot of our youth today. Getting lost in games, it's like being in another world. Nice song Ayla

Yes it is common amongst Japonese teenagers to just retreat from the world and not leave the house for months at a time, often combined with playing video games.
