RPG similar to the one in manga/anime?

[Satsuki]

I'm just wondering, is there any RPG that, just like in manga/anime, the character actually live, have needs, build up their house/shop and stuff, not just running around everywhere taking on quest?

[Arkamondal]

will this and this help....?

[Kuma]

Rune Factory

[Funyarinpa]

Closest thing I can think of is Persona (3 and onwards). 

[Clephas]

Atelier series

Rune Factory

Harvest Moon

[fun2novel]

Maybe Recettear: An Item Shop's Tale.

[Darklord Rooke]

Maybe Suikoden

Sim Urbz

Sim Bustin out

Rune Factory series

Harvest Moon series (called Story of Seasons now, also less RPG than others)

[Akimoto Masato]

Almost any of the sims games

Princess Maker could fit this too.

Most of you guys just completely missed the point of my question. What I'm asking is an JRPG, just like other games, have quest, dungeon, hunting monster, blah blah, but instead of running around doing quest 24/7 without any need for rest/food and spend all gained money on equipment, the character needs to sleep/eat to live, and can spend money on building/improving their house and stuff.

Yeah, something along the line of Harvest Moon or Rune Factory, although those 2 focus a bit too much on the farming aspect.

Rune Factory and Harvest Moon are the closest you will get from what I've played. You could also play Stardew Valley. There are mods to change the character portraits to look more anime-ish, but once again it's a farming game.

Since it's set in the modern world, there are no monsters nor dugeons but the quest aspect and story progression are kind of similar to JRPG. I think you should give it a try.
