[this is going to be in English... ]
With blood shot eye I keep awake this early in the morning.
Why?
I really want to know, too.
I am an Otaku so at this hour the only think I could be doing, except from writing my first blog entry, is reading manga [= Japanese comics] and role playing with my friend Amy some gay anime couple. Leaving that apart we come across the question: "What is an Otaku, now really?"
Some consider them geeks and say they have no life ... You have an example of that right above ... well let me tell you something "they do mate..." xD But is not like it has anything to do with me being on the blog and writhing nonsense at 3:37 in the morning.
Lets see what this word actually means: Otaku is a Japanese term often used to describe hardcore fans of sci-fi, computer games, anime and manga. Although used with pride by many western fans to describe themselves, the term carries a negative a connotation in Japan as 'Trekkie' or 'geek' does here.
So basically in Japanese society its usage is widely understood to mean someone who is an anti-social maniac. Soooo~ basically I am an anti-social manic which of course I am not..
I will admit that most ppl that call themselves "otaku" are weird compared to other kids but not in a bad way. The only weird thing about us is that we let our imagination run wild and instead of watching soap operas or films in our free time we watch anime and read manga. You may also find weird our perverted imaginations [tho that might be only my case]... but lets be honest for a sec we all have a perverted part in ourselves its just that some don't have the guts to show it. I DO! O////O maybe...
Sooo~ "What is an Otaku, now really?"
My answer: "Otaku mostly means you like anime the rest only god knows.... we as ppl are all so different that we can't be classified under one definition, even if we have some similar behaving habits or hobbies."
