So, after 12 episodes or so, I've accidentally been spoiled on what's happened, or at least worked it out through a plot synopsis, if you're going to watch Welcome to the NHK, don't read on.
Turned out Satou has accidentally joined a suicide group and doesn't know. He was visited by a girl he knew in high school the day before and thought she was depressed since she was having a hard time with life, and so he said he would follow her anywhere (thinking they were going to go on holiday or to the beach) turned out they went to a deserted island and were going to off themselves there.
He has absolutely no idea they're going to kill themselves and thinks they're all super depressed and is now trying to cheer them all up and make them do "holiday" things like swimming to have some fun.
It's actually pretty funny since they keep on saying "hmm, maybe this is a bad idea" and he's just saying "No, we came this far, we should keep on going with it, we need to start a new life!" and other things like that.
