So guys... do you guys know many femal Otaku?
Do you even date one??
I got a otaku-girlfriend, she also draws doujinshi.
Shes more like a doujin-otaku.
I'm an Anime, Manga & Game Otaku.
What Otaku-types match the most?? i really wonder...

your turn.

2 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2007-06-14 14:58 ID:/UYgyXIk

Not sure if my girlfriend could be called an otaku, but i'm working on her indoctrination.

3 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2007-06-14 15:16 ID:NIvfFMds

>>2
and how do you want to indoctrinate her?

4 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2007-06-14 15:46 ID:/UYgyXIk

>>3 By giving her anime to watch, manga to read and galge to play. She's already shota for Bridget, at least.

5 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2007-06-14 15:49 ID:NIvfFMds

>>4
ooh, and what anime / manga should it be??
i assume she plays guilty gear? (bridget?)

6 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2007-06-14 16:29 ID:N2z2DWMF

Female Otaku = By defintion of Otaku would be disgusting.

Don't delude yourself.

7 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2007-06-14 16:53 ID:NIvfFMds

>>6
what do you mean???

8 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2007-06-14 17:36 ID:NIvfFMds

>>4
why do you want her to be an otaku anyway?? :) do you feel better with one of your type?

9 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2007-06-14 19:25 ID:/UYgyXIk

>>5
Well, at the moment it's Yamato Nadeshiko Shichi Henge (recently licensed as "The Wallflower", Keroro Gunsou and Lucky Star. And yes, we occasionally have Guilty Gear matches.
>>8
Shared hobbies are more fun. I enjoy watching anime with others.

10 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2007-06-14 20:12 ID:qtD2endz

>>9
point 2 is very right.
i enjoy anime with my gf very much! you should try cosplay sex...lol

11 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2007-06-15 00:14 ID:TlLvG/M8

I am a female otaku (Of course, there's no way to prove it to you, but whatever. =P)

As weird as it might sound, I do a lot of the stuff regular male otaku do(But I don't watch hentai =P That part is probably important. I probably should've put that earlier. Oh well.)

(...Okay, fine, I admit, I base my knowledge of otaku guys on Genshiken >_>)

I'm probably never going to find a boyfriend (Then again, I don't really want one), I consistently spend my days inside, I talk more online than I do offline, I spend my whole life savings on anime and manga, the biggest joy in my life is going to Anime Expo, my closet consists of anime T-shirts, I cosplay... Yeah.

I try and practice good hygiene at least though. ...Yeah.

>>6
Yeah, you're right, honestly, female otaku aren't usually like the ones you find in series like Aoi House, Genshiken, and Lucky Star. =P
Of course, then again, some are. But that wouldn't be me.

12 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2007-06-15 04:13 ID:/nrEauUX

Cosplay sex is great.

13 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2007-06-15 07:25 ID:/UYgyXIk

>>11
You could find a boyfriend online, you know. That's how I found my girlfriend. That's if you don't mind long-distance relationships though.

14 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2007-06-15 12:15 ID:zVplGloO

i found my gf through a online-anime community too, she doesnt live far away, only 20km, i can go visit her everyday.

15 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2007-06-15 12:21 ID:zVplGloO

>>11
the guys on genshiken are only a few types of otaku :D

16 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2007-06-16 14:57 ID:nxouuOYc

anybody else with some experience on female otaku?

17 Name: Aerith : 2007-06-17 14:22 ID:WDZsFcuh

Well I guess I am one! XD

18 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2007-06-17 14:24 ID:tfvukUjy

>>17
<3 marry me

19 Name: Aerith : 2007-06-17 14:29 ID:WDZsFcuh

Hahahaha! No way!

20 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2007-06-17 14:34 ID:tfvukUjy

>>19
so... do you have an boyfriend that is otaku?

21 Name: Aerith : 2007-06-17 14:41 ID:WDZsFcuh

>>20

I just broke up with mine, but he wasn't into japanese stuff. But he didn't mind me watching anime, jdoramas and etc either..

22 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2007-06-17 14:51 ID:tfvukUjy

>>21
i wonder how he could stand that... tell us more

23 Name: Aerith : 2007-06-17 14:59 ID:WDZsFcuh

>>22

Well he could stand because since we were in a relationship, I obviously watched less than I would normally do. I'm not an Otaku hardcore if you will, maybe I shouldn't even be considered one? I watch, read and etc when I have time available, but still I get news of what's going on. Maybe of all things, what I like most is playing rpgs for consoles, Final Fantasy being my favorite game, and spend some time on Gamespot chatting about it.

As you I grew up older and stuff, I dedicated less time to my "hobbies". Now that I broke up, I'm just doing the things I enjoy till I feel like moving on again. Thus here I am spending my time on this board, which I just found, by the way! It is like Densha Otoko's jdrama bbs! Pretty neat!

24 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2007-06-17 15:06 ID:tfvukUjy

>>23
well, you can be called a gemu wota then, game otaku.
haha, yea...its like the original 2ch style here...which densha otoko posted on, no wonder!
you can chat with us anytime^^ im the OP >>1 btw

なんで━━━━━━(^∀^;)━━━━━━ ??? so lonely

26 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2007-06-18 00:03 ID:jvGg9/yY

You "Otaku" that want to date a "female otaku" make me sick.

A true otaku knows that the only girl for him is Kinomoto Sakura-sama and Takamachi Nanoha-sama. Yurie and Kamiyama Mangetsu-chan are up there too, but the point is, 2D, 2D LOVE!

If you want to watch anime with other people, get a nico nico douga acocunt, or some friends that are worth hanging around. If you want to play games with others, find local tournaments or games with acceptable online play.

Being an otaku is about eroge and 2D love. All the "otaku" girls I've talked to around the US are... well... if they weren't girls, people would run around calling them dumbasses. On MMORPGs, the players that are actually girls, well, absolutely suck. I know a priest in RO whom would sit around and buff the enemies while our castle was being taken.
And 3D girls that play Fighters are a joke, I've never seen one worth a damn thing. Definitely no Konata. Most of them seem to find their anime from ANN.

The point is, why are you guys interested in the first place? If a worth opponent is a female, show no mercy or fascination. If a girl plays an RPG it's almost guaranteed she won't hit max level or go for all the secrets. It is just their nature. A girl would not spend 100% of their paychecks on doujinshi, eroge, figures etc. They all seem to want clothes and "real" food. What the hell, why do the fools always tell me to eat "actual" food? $4.50 for a meal? HA! I could get a trading figure for that!!!

27 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2007-06-18 00:39 ID:tfvukUjy

>>26
well, at some points ure right...but its nice to have a relationship with a girl that shares the same hobbies and interests. we're not only talking about girls that game...i know many girls that play RO and not sit around buffing enemies LOL.
4,50€ for a meal...Ha-! i could get a classic manga for that!!!

28 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2007-06-18 01:01 ID:Heaven

>>27
At this point in my life, I'm willing to take dakimakura over any kind of relationship at all.
Most girls I know that watch anime do so on youtube.
I even know a girl who read manga on youtube. search for "Naruto manga", I shit you not :/. Tens of thousands of views, hundreds of comments... and why? "I can unzip the file..." "the video doesn't play..." I've also never met a girl with a mentality that says: FUCKING GOOGLE IT!
It is truly sad that I seem unable to find a girl that TRULY shares my interests. If anyone finds someone who is... well, -actually- otaku... report back here.

29 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2007-06-18 12:15 ID:Dc1H2wxk

>>28
thats the truth, but you can teach girls to do the right things :D
youtube anime/manga fangirls ALWAYS suck, I'm so happy my gf isnt like this...she watches AMV's on youtube tho, lol.

(till now i didnt even know about manga on youtube, rofl, wtf is up with that shit..we should follow the uploaders home and kill their dog.)

wtf is that

32 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2007-06-18 23:57 ID:Dc1H2wxk

aerith i miss you

33 Name: 11 : 2007-06-19 23:49 ID:nM/jbfen

See? Time's probably my biggest obstacle to any sort of relationship whatsoever. Where Aerith/23 could give up a bit of her anime time, I could never do that. I almost never hang out with my friends outside of school, because I'm either here, or watching anime or reading manga. The other obstacle is that I really don't want a romantic relationship with a 3D guy right now. =P

...And I played Yo-Jin-Bo, which is a "visual novel" romance for girls. I think I fell in love with Ittosai. Honestly.

But it's not like I can tell all my friends "Hey! I have a crush on this character in a dating sim!", because they're somewhat normal gasp. If I ever get asked "out" I think I'm going to act like a total idiot and say "We already are outside." Because I hate turning people down, but I also don't think I could maintain a relationship with someone.

I'm about as oblivious about guys as most of you are about girls. I lied back there. My knowledge of guys comes from Genshiken AND the 4-ch boards XD

>>26
...XDXD Yeah. Overall, we (Being 3D girls) kind of suck sometimes. Maybe not as badly as you make it sound, but yeah. =P

>>28
XDXD
Manga on YouTube?? That's amazing (in a bad way). And yes, I hate those people who depend on YouTube for ALL their anime and manga and whatever. I want to grab them by the neck, shake them and suggest they spend some money on a DVD or book. It's always nice to not be a total leech.

34 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2007-06-20 06:10 ID:/LPk66hi

OP here!
thank you guys for so much information!あはははははは!!!
(^_____^)what else is there to say?

maybe this is interesting:

how can an otaku win the heart of a otaku-girl?

do otaku and fujoshi fit?

35 Name: 33 : 2007-06-20 07:24 ID:rOgsIIYg

>>34
Don't expect the girl to be the same as all your hentai characters. Most girls don't really see hentai as an art form, so it's not usually good to strike up a conversation about that. But I hope you knew that =D
Usually, as long as you discuss anime series that are somewhat in the girl's intrests, they'll respond. Read Fruits Basket. Almost 99% of girls have read that series at least, and usually it makes for easy conversation. Don't diss Kyou or Yuki, a lot of girls I've seen swoon over the mere mention of either of the two.
Also, female otaku are kinda unpredictable (Well, more so than most 2D characters). Mood swings abound =D

(Trying to help any otaku who want a female otaku girlfriend by giving insight into my perspective as a girl ^_^)

36 Name: Aerith : 2007-06-20 21:45 ID:WDZsFcuh

>>33

But you see, if you really love someone, you will end up gladly giving up your time reading manga/watching anime and etc to spend time with that person. Now, if the other person also enjoys the same stuff you do, than that's great, because chances are you will be watching animes together for example.

As far as knowing boys, well, I didn't either but it is a natural thing. The only thing I can say it is really important is to be always yourself; never try to pretend you are someone you are not for that special person.

37 Name: 33 : 2007-06-21 00:21 ID:rvgKOGOh

>>36

Yeah, guess so =)
I've never been in love with a 3D guy before (It's really easy for me to spend time with 2D guys obviously XD), so I've never really felt the need to spend time with someone. I'm kinda curious about what that would feel like. Hm.

And don't worry, I'm not anybody but myself =D I would never change myself for someone else, because that would be a hassle =D
Thanks for the advice ^_^

XD I just realized how much this topic is like Densha Otoko

I expect one of you guys to go out and save a girl on the train/subway now =D

38 Name: Aerith : 2007-06-21 01:01 ID:WDZsFcuh

>>37

Hahaha. You know, I think that because of technology, computers and the like, people are forgetting to put people in the first place in their lives. I truly believe that we should balance things in out life, but then again, we should be placing human beings in first place (relationships, parents, friends and etc) and spending more time with them.

39 Name: Kite_DH!3GqYIJ3Obs : 2007-06-21 10:27 ID:fCmOA4kg

>>37
OP here, yes the topic should remind a little of densha otoko, lol.
i just wanted to find out if there are any female otaku that think about a relationship with another otaku, like my gf and me did.
the thread is very interesting rightnow :D thx for so many replies

40 Name: Cliche : 2007-06-21 21:16 ID:PExYw2gp

Female otaku, too.
Most of my friends are otaku, as well.

I'm not bad. I have somewhat of a life, but at most times, everything I do reminds me of one anime or game or manga or another. Since I finally got my laptop, not even two months ago, I've nearly filled my hard drive up. I need to decide what to get rid of (TT___TT It's so hard to decide! I need to keep Kanon 2006, My-HiME and Suzumiya Haruhi. TT__TT).

I went out with another otaku for three months. But he was a total stubborn jerk who said what he thought was better was better, end of story -.- He wouldn't even try watching Higurashi no naku koro ni with me. He also told me to stop being so tsuntsun all the time. Like I could help it! I figure he just wanted me to be the stereotypical moe. But honestly, who is?

He also didn't like it that I didn't care about fanservice. What otaku wants his girlfriend to dislike fanservice? The whole truth is that I find it funny.

I figure sometimes otaku make good boyfriends, sometimes they don't. Don't hold your breath, though. They're probably more interested in Haruhi than you.

41 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2007-06-21 22:17 ID:zUWyqjp9

Just get a hot chick and turn her onto it. As long as she's not dumb or racist there's always a chance.

42 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2007-06-21 22:22 ID:/UYgyXIk

>>40
Why get rid of anything? That's what DVD burners are for. My anime archive is slowly approaching 800 DVDs right now.

43 Name: Kite_DH!3GqYIJ3Obs : 2007-06-21 23:04 ID:kgKpu25A

>>40
wow, what a jerk :<

>>41
i never succeeded turning anybody into an real otaku!
it sounds easy but it truly is not... :(

>>42
:O thats alot, i got a big HD (2TB) so it'll take a while to fill it, after that i may fill up my external one

44 Name: Cliche : 2007-06-23 23:32 ID:PExYw2gp

I'm a little new, so I don't understand how to do the >>42 thing...

Aha, Yeah... no. Unfortunately what little money I do have is spent on figurines and manga. I'm working hard for a Yuki "Day of Sagittarius III" figurine... but I tend to get sidetracked at a trip to the bookstore, and the fact my Genshiken manga collection is falling behind. And, of course there was that $50 spent on Haruhi Special Edition DVD 1... DL is the only way I can keep up with my friends. I'm poor. But my favorite figurine is my first: a Saki collection figure from Genshiken cosplaying. Ahhh~ I love that scene, and my best friend gave it to me. So it's worth all the rest of my collection to me. ^^;

and again, n00b here. >>43

Yeah. Really. Stupid, opinionated, stereotypical, rotten, continues to mumble angrily

45 Name: Kite_DH!3GqYIJ3Obs : 2007-06-24 05:08 ID:BA4+3lwD

>>44
dude, i wanna see pics of the saki figure!!! ploooxx!!

btw, the burning method is easy, just costs u DVD's

46 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2007-06-24 09:01 ID:Heaven

>>43
Maybe you needed to make her watch more BL.

47 Name: Cliche : 2007-06-24 16:21 ID:PExYw2gp

It's a cheap little thing. Here, I'll give you a link... http://www.yamatotoysusa.com/YUS%20Web/Page%20Elements/Genshiken/MF/Vol.1/HR/Style6&8.jpg
I really want the Ohno one TT__TT

And Eheh... -is literally dirt poor after the Suzumiya Box sets.- I may just burn them all to CD like my friend does with her series...

48 Name: Kite_DH!3GqYIJ3Obs : 2007-06-24 17:04 ID:D8Y6M8YS

50 Name: Cliche : 2007-06-24 17:55 ID:PExYw2gp

Well, I'm a female. I'm an otaku. I'm on topic just by being here ^^;;

51 Name: Kite_DH!3GqYIJ3Obs : 2007-06-24 19:47 ID:D8Y6M8YS

thats kinda true! plus, you're very welcome! haha

52 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2007-06-24 20:09 ID:/UYgyXIk

>>47
Might be a good idea to save space by burning to DVD instead of CD.

53 Name: Cliche : 2007-06-25 05:29 ID:PExYw2gp

I don't understand why no one believes that my friend waffo and are girls... TT__TT

>>49
My friend was third place prom queen at our school and is going out with an otaku. It's kind of a genshiken situation, I guess you could say... hey, the fact that I'm her friend should say something in itself.

>>52
I can fit 10 eps to a CD vs 3 to a DVD. And CDs are cheaper. -burned Kanon earlier-

54 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2007-06-25 07:53 ID:/UYgyXIk

umm, how do you manage that? The most I'm able to burn on a CD is 4 eps, while I've burned entire 26ep series to DVD (Full Metal Panic, School Rumble, etc). Are you talking about burning DVD movie versions, perhaps? I meant burning a DVD with regular avis.

55 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2007-06-25 15:13 ID:zexmro4I

>>53 o_O
How do you fit 10 episodes on a CD without horribly recompressing them? A DVD has about 7 times more storage space than a CD.

56 Name: Cliche : 2007-06-25 18:19 ID:PExYw2gp

Ah hah ^^ I'm a bit of a n00b with this computer. And my friend was the one who was telling me what to do to burn them... she's not an otaku, so maybe she doesn't understand the space issue.

hmmm... I guess I'll have to try again with the DVD.

Sorry about the stupidity.

she drew NGE, Dogs and BLAME! doujins, mostly short stories.
she also did her own manga, i think she called it "girls club" or something.. but she sometimes has no time to continue on them

67 Name: 26 : 2007-06-29 14:08 ID:Heaven

Flame time!
Cliche is exactly what I'm talking about. Feels the need to defend herself for some reason when someone makes a totally random & indirect post saying "hot girls do not like otaku" (>>49 re: >>53).

And then the whole CD/DVD thing. If you open up google real quick and do a search of "How to burn a DVD", then "Difference between a DVD & CD", bam, knowledge. Do it before you post, you don't have to even mention that you're noob with computers.

That there is a basic concept that any girl I've ever met does not grasp no matter how many times it's driven into them.

Perhaps in this soceity girls do not feel the need to increase their knowledge base because, regardless the second a girl says she watches anime a bunch of equally retarded male anime enthusiasts swon all over her. Perhaps it is a deep-rooted subconcious concept of "Well, it doesn't matter if I don't REALLY know what I'm talking about, they'll still have interest."

Bah.

68 Name: Kite_DH!3GqYIJ3Obs : 2007-06-29 19:25 ID:I9A4epvJ

70 Name: Sparda (Alex) : 2007-07-14 23:01 ID:CtzufFI9

Well I'm a vietnamese 19 yr old guy who loves anime and got into listening to japanese/foreign music becuz of watchign anime, my friend Jefferri (african american) who draws, plays games, read mangas, pretty much an OTAKU turned me into an Otaku (games, mangas, anime..ect). Hes one of my long time best friends too.

I"d like to say... I haven't yet seen any Otaku girls yet but I'm surprised there is alot besides cosplayers. I wouldn't mind an Otaku gf or just a gf who have some kinda of similiar interests that I have.

Kinda' have a problem with storage for my comp too lol Have a external HD 160GB (comp HDD is 80GB {only 74gb is availble}) tried to buy the 1TB but its only 2 500GB put together which lags the transfer of data n shit so i didn't buy unless its 1HD that is 1TB. My comp is shitty too.. 2001 HP 2.2GHZ 1GB ram(added myself) Geforce 7800GS OC 256MB GDDR3 card, tried playing wow with good FPS but my 2.2ghz CPU is limiting my Video Card causing great FPS lag when theres crapload of shit on screen haha.

If any of u guys or gals wants to chat with me on AIM its Alastar969 (damn typo my friends fault) I"m on all teh time if not watching crappy anime cuz can't find any good DL sights or torrents cuz most of the recent animes aren't subbed. Hate watching DMC anime cuz its only spanish sub which sucks cuz the english subs r kinda fucked up.. i catch on few japanese words cuz of my long term anime watching.

We'll I'm glad to here to girls aren't discriminating against Otaku's . Check out my webpage n tell me if i look like a spazz in my picture hahaha!! well Cha Ne!

Might as well give out my IP, ISP, Phone #, Address, Social secuirity #, Bank account #, Debit Pin #, Cell phone #, my report cards, and exact coords to my house.... lol

73 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2007-07-15 08:31 ID:aq9OgVym

I'm a female otaku. I'd love an otaku boyfriend, but he'd have to be decent looking and we'd have to have more in common than just anime etc.
i'd like a boyfriend who's an otaku mostly cos i'd probly be able to relate to another otaku better than a guy who wasn't one.

>>49, and anyone else who thinks so, hot girls do so like anime! i is preeettttyyy! not like, super-really-wow-incredibly-hot, but i am good looking :) I've met a few other otaku girls who were also good looking.

74 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2007-07-15 17:59 ID:ZxOId0P8

I bet >>73 is really mainly into anime for the yaoi. :(

I is 73. It's not just the yaoi! Yaoi constitutes a very small part of my interest in anime and manga. of course, i do like it to some extent... actualy, i like regular hentai more than yaoi... and i definitely don't like shota.

77 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2007-07-16 03:30 ID:ZxOId0P8

>>76
I don't like most hentai and I don't like most shota, but since I watched Neon Genesis Evangelion, I have a soft spot for Shinji x Misato shota, but only if it looks gentle and romantic.

Am I ebil? T_T;

78 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2007-07-16 12:01 ID:N0jSGeQW

nah, not ebil.... that sounds kinda good, if it was gentle and romantic...

Honestly, I always thought a strong percentage of anime nerds in the US were female, if not the majority. US male nerds have got "manlier" things to obsess about, like D&D and their FPS clans. (sigh, well fewer and fewer gamers in this country are considered nerds, it's a good thing)

83 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2007-07-16 23:44 ID:ZxOId0P8

>>80
heh, cute, but not quite.

Most shota turns me off because it feels like the woman is exploiting the boy, or doing it for some perverse reason that may not be healthy for him. When I watched FLCL, the kiss between Naota and Haruko was really creepy for me for that reason.

But Misato and Shinji are a special case for me. She's a lonely, sad little girl in a woman's body, trying so hard to pretend to be a grown-up. If anything, he's more mature than she is. And I think he cares for her more than Kaji does. He'd be good for her and she'd be good for him. ^_^

Ever seen the original film, "The Graduate?" That was screwy and sad, because Anne Bancroft's character was crazy in sad, bad ways. But this might be different. Or not. I know I'm a weirdo, but I 'ship them. ^_^

Haven't been here in a while...

I represent the... less pretty of the female otaku XD I'm not going to lie, I could use exercise. And some sun, god I'm pale. I should probably stop chewing my nails too >_>;;
I'm sure there are some "hot" girls who are into anime and stuff... Here, there, somewhere.

I just realized how much I hate "normal" girls. There were some little kids at the camp I went to, and god, they couldn't stop talking about their purses, and OMG their nails, and how rich their parents were. And for some reason, they latched onto me. The freaking otaku, who wears shirts way too big, and has pants that are literally shredding at the bottom of the leg seams. I now give my Haro plushie and my Sumomo plushie a hug goodnight, and thank god they're not normal.

It probably makes me look... odd, but honestly, I wonder why the heck I was born as a girl. Augh.

>>67

We love Google. My parents are always asking me how to do this and that with the computer, and usually, all it takes is a quick google. People always ask me where the heck I find all this anime stuff, when all it would take is a quick google...

...Man, I rambled.

I know a whole lot of female otaku that are gaijin. Most are fat and bitchy, but some are nice looking and kind. They kind of span across the entire spectrum.

There are a lot of japanese female otaku too, i chat with some over peercast sometimes.

There used to be a documentary on female otaku by some japanese tv program on youtube. I can't seem to find it now though....
I'll post if i find it.

this thread is sickening indeed...

101 Name: 93 : 2007-08-09 23:03 ID:nfC7jI62

Okay. Weiiiird stuff.

I've come to you guys, because I don't understand guys anymore than you would girls o_o.

Today, there was a boy (2 years younger I add) in my band class that said "Hi Julie" (My name, =P) everytime he saw me. Then, I was sitting alone, listening to my music, and he wants to listen for a while. So I play Cha-La-Head-Cha-La (KONATA's version for heaven sakes), and he kinda looks at me, and kinda manages a "Oh, that's cool. It's got a nice beat." It feels like he's following me >_>;;
I don't know whether he's trying to hint at something, or if he's just latched onto me because I'm the only girl in band that's not horrifically girly, or what. After all, he's only a freshman in high school, and he's fairly immature.
I might add that I don't like him "that" way, if it helps. And I just met him 4 days ago.

So, what's your opinion, male 4-ch'ers? (and female ones if they've got an opinion)

I feel kind of stupid asking you guys this, but I'm not quite sure what to do. I'm leaning heavily towards ignoring it and pretending I don't notice anything.

>>103
Actually I meant that HE was the one who was 2 years younger. You can do the math if you want o.o

But good news.

Apparently, he flirts with just about any girl he can find (Probably because honestly, he's not that cute or anything >>) He's realllly short, probably not even 5 feet, and he's got this really annoying tendency to repeat things like crazy until someone acknowledges that they heard him >>;;

I almost tripped over the sidewalk busting up laughing because he was hitting on another girl who was all o_o;; and >_>;; the whole time.
So, I don't even care anymore. I'm not going to see him that much anyway after this. I kinda started half ignoring him XD

And today, once again, he insisted on listening to my music. ALI PROJECT's Ankoku Tengoku and another favorite of mine, "Uchuu Tetsujin Kyoudain" by Konata =D He had nothing to say about those two.

>>102
YES. Best song ever (Maybe next to Motteke! Sailor Fuku)

why does it seem that many lady otaku like lucky star btw

110 Name: 107 : 2007-08-12 13:49 ID:/XyZKz2Q

I love Higurashi no Naku Koro ni too.

Bleach, Fullmetal Alchemist, Azumanga Daioh, Full Moon wo Sagashite (Although I liked the manga version a lot better...), .hack//SIGN, Midori Days (Although, I have yet to buy volumes 1 and 2 >_>), Ouran Koukou Host Club, Fruits Basket, Kino no Tabi, Voices of a Distant Star, Iriya no Sora, UFO no Natsu (I should get around to finishing that one)...

I'm trying to think of ones that I watched and pretty much stayed with. There's a lot that I started, but never finished...

I'm interested in Nanatsuiro Drops (XDXD Yes, I know it's based off an erogame), Bokurano, and Moetan (I know English obviously, but I'm still kinda curious about it) too though... I should go watch some fansubs.

I dunno if I should be saying this in the anime section of the board, but I read a lot more manga than I watch anime XD

>>109
I dunno... I just like it because Konata's living the dream otaku life, and because Miyuki is so moe. ...That sounds kinda creepy coming from a female otaku, but I really do like the characters they deem as the moe one usually XD
I like all the anime and media references too, even if I don't get 99% of them.

I don't know why the general lady otaku would like Lucky Star though, apart from the fact that Kona and everyone else are cute o_o
I don't understand women or men XDXD

Hi folks...

>>112
I'm wondering if the following favourites of mine would also be considered as "typical girl anime"?

Black Lagoon, Blood+, Samurai Champloo, Cowboy Bebop; Honey and Clover (...I know this is one); Suzumiya Haruhi, Manabi Straight, Lucky Star, Simoun, Kashimashi, Ikkitousen, the Ichigo 100% OVAs (I'm crazy about the manga and still can't figure out why...).

I'm curious. :3

>>115
No, most of wouldn't be considered typical girl anime. In fact, I'm surprised to see a fanservice-heavy anime like Ikkitousen in your list. I would have expected the gratuitous fanboy appeal to drive away most women. Ichigo 100% is by most accounts a middle tier shonen harem/love triangle comedy with a disappointing ending. Is it the first of its genre you have read?

Would any girls here consider themselves fujoshi, going by >>117's definition?

119 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2007-08-15 03:29 ID:2jAj0ESj

My roommate was an otaku, definately of the weeaboo variety. She had 3 different wallscrolls on her wall, 20 figurines of characters from Tenjou Tenge and Bo-Mei or whatever, her whole bookshelf was manga only (just left her textbooks lying on the ground) and she ate pocky, mochi, and ramone. She also mainly watched stuff like Tenjou Tenge and those other fanservice shows. The first thing she asked me when I moved in there was whether or not I liked ecchi.

123 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2007-08-15 22:11 ID:glcvuXDa

I think some things are being over looked here.

It would be awesome to find a girl pre-configured to like all the same things you do, but almost all the fun in a relationship is learning things from eachother. If that isnt there then you already know the answer to each question you ask.

"Do you like Haruhi?" "Yup",
"Do you like Higurashi?" "Damn skippy" ... ...
"oh thats cool."

Truth is, opposites attract. An otaku male is hevily influenced by what he watches/reads and will tend to treat and act like his favorite character or at least a general likeing to around girls. Since most romatic moments in anime revolve around 2 non-otaku characters, for instance Ranma & Akane, it teaches him how things would/could/should/shouldn't go.

I am not a woman and can't possably speak for one but I have noticed a general trend with them as well. female-otaku also act in this same maner however the characteristics they take on do not revolve around relationships but rather things that make them kawaii/moe. It's certainly related however nowhere near as deep as a male. Female-otaku retain the knowledge about relationships from highschool and not from anime/manga. (In fact alot of the anime/manga they read even revolves around this just as a male's) It kicks in automatically from human nature. They then aim for slightly-otaku or non-otaku guys at all which sometimes leads to trouble or a perfect relationship. It's hit or miss just like so called "normal" people do.

We otaku grow up in our own world then venture out to the "normal" world, relationships with non-otaku work the same way as relationships with people from other countries.

Unfortunetly being otaku is a inharently Japanese behavior, to call anyone wapanese makes you a hypocrite. non-japanese otaku will absorb and act diffrently then Japanese otaku due to culture.

Yeah, but in real life, I AM Japanese (I know, you won't believe it and I'm just trying to justify the means, whatever.). I always wonder why the heck I wasn't born a guy, and in Japan >_> I really do hate it when people take it overboard though. I hate it when people ask me to say a Japanese word or something, and I do, and then they go repeating it like they're a freaking parrot. I don't take the anime character stuff overboard, I do have my own personality and stuff. But I'm influenced by these characters.

>>115
YAY. I always feel kind of creepy watching and reading this moe stuff where the characters are so darn cute, when I know that they're meant for the seinen population (IE: Strawberry Marshmallow). Ah, and Hayate the Combat Butler Vol. 4 made a few references to Moetan <3<3 (Hayate is walking with a Moetan book in hand, and Nagi comments on how she doesn't think he's going to pass his exam with THAT study guide)

131 Name: Scorch : 2007-08-17 19:30 ID:NftbpgDu

>>130
There is a difference. One is deliberate and the other? Not so much.

I'll admit, I find myself acting a lot like various characters out of manga, anime, and video games I take in.

It's not deliberate, but just something that kind of happens.

We see something, like a few lines or so we like, and we emulate them and incorporate it into our daily speech.

Now acting in ways that we have no business doing...

132 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2007-08-18 03:47 ID:JQL+49uV

Response to >>1, Yes I know some. Some are noisy, either in a chippy way, often yelling Japanese stuff at random. Others are angry fangirls. The former tend to be tiny and cute, if annoying, the latter tend to be fat and unattractive. Others tend to be more normal.

Thought so. Sometimes I wonder if I have an inner fifteen year-old fanboy somewhere in my brain, although fanservice does make me laugh most of the time. And yes, Ichigo 100% was my first read in this genre, and I definitely wasn't disappointed by the ending, even though a fair number of things made me go "huh"...

XDXD Yay! Female moe fans! I'm getting over the initial thought of "I'm watching some like, 10 year old girls play doctor, and I'm not finding it creepy. Oh dear."

I think I like the ideal small child image they have, because I hate children in real life. (They cry too much, whine too much, yell too much...) I like the little sister/brother character, because though I know all too well that's not how they are in real life, that's how I'd like them to be >_>;;
Moe girls cry, but at least they're cute while they're doing it.

why is this thread still alive!?
I thought I burned you fags into the ground.

Ah well!

regardless, I'm doing a good job, if I do say so myself. I have a little sister. She's about to enter 7th grade.

So far, she's pretty good at web design, she's been messing with toolsets for games for years now, she likes D&D style games, JRPGs, and visual novels... she keeps up with anime, she watches nico videos all day, she's hit high levels in MMORPGs, she listens to doujin music, and she's got most melty blood combos down. Oh, and yesterday she beat touhou 7 on hard. No lunatic yet, but getting there!

She isn't a total fucking dumbass on the 'net either. Modding imageboards and game servers is serious business at age 11. Her typing/grammar is better than mine on things like IRC, etc.

Pretty sure she knows 4-ch exists, but I'm positive she doesn't really hang around. Guess I'm making this post in her name.

So, keep your eyes open gentlemen. There's hope. All we need is more older brothers.

I guess what I am trying to say is find what makes you happy and do not try for an otaku girlfriend or try to mold one, just enjoy what you can get and change if you like it. BTW she hates most anime (except host club for some reason).

Hmm, let's see. I'm a girl and I like anime, but I don't really think I'm "wapanese" because I don't try to speak japanese, eat with chopsticks, etc. But I do cosplay. Yaoi kinda creeps me out. A lot more than hentai, actually. My favorite animes are: Evangelion, Full Metal Panic, Death Note, Samurai Champloo, Gantz, Elfen Lied, Cromartie, Hare Guu, and Haruhi. I think I'm... reasonably attractive but kinda fat...

...I just found out he used to be a mod for 7chan... (O_o);; He wasn't a mod for /b/, though. I didn't think the chans even had proper moderators other than their respective owners and a few "tripfags"...

>>154
is a mod for 7chan a bad person???

156 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2007-09-10 13:09 ID:Heaven

Everyone here seems to think so... Anyway, he calls himself a "bad person" all the time, but he's really a very good person to everyone he cares about... It's just that if he's dealing with a stranger, he doesn't give a shit if the person dies on the spot... I've never met someone with such a world view before... O_o;;

Anyway, I think the chan's have a pretty bad rep, but I can't see the real problem with them. The only people they ever raid are people who need to sit down and analyze their lives anyway... It's all people who present themselves as representatives of their hobbies/fetishes instead of putting their personality first. I think maybe there is a good side to these raids, but no one ever sees them.

I'm not excusing some of /b/'s really bad cracking, though. Crackers are bad. Even black hatters go overboard sometimes. I just don't think /b/ is entirely bad.

Does it count as dating if she was creepy, almost stalker-esque and no matter how much I tried to get rid of her she continuously pestered me, often to the point of me being even more uncomfortable than usual in my social-ineptness?

If yes then I have indeed dated a female otaku. Never. Again.

164 Name: Cynic : 2007-09-27 14:42 ID:mlAN9SSo

>>163
Oh, girl otaku are a CUH-RAZY bunch. Speaking as one, I sometimes really resent being one, especially when other female otaku assume I'm just like them and show me things I don't want to see. And I hate fanfiction with a passion, unless it's very well done, which still doesn't cover up the fact that it's Sephiroth having sex with Cait Sith. ~no thanks.~

Anyway, there are plenty of female otaku, and sometimes there's variety amongst them. They like to travel in herds and make that really screechy IIIIIIII! noise whenever they see something they like.

Occasionally, you'll find one that is kind, reasonable, and worth having. Congratualtions if you do manage this and she isn't underage. Good luck.

165 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2007-10-01 13:26 ID:/nrEauUX

>>164

(OT: I've often wondered why 90% of fanfic contains gay sex and then another 9% contains straight sex. Some of us would just like to explore scenarios if they happened differently, but it seems the minds of all the authors are well in the gutter. Well I guess mine is too, but in different ways. Ahem.)

On topic again:

Yes... this underage thing is a real problem. Even living in a country where 16 is the legal age, you still run into way too much jailbait (confirmed this just this weekend.) So trying to pick up at anime or indeed any pop culture festivals is too random to bother with. Unless someone creates one for old school fans so that the young kids don't flood it.

166 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2007-10-06 01:27 ID:XqS8QDUa

I'm a girl, but I don't know if I'm considered an otaku, I mean, I know some Japanese because of many years of watching fansubs and I've been drawing since I first watched Samurai Pizza Cats, dragon ball and Sailor Moon... I watch anime or play games every chance I get (Just finished 3 series of anime couple weeks ago). Also, I think I'm the one of the only authentic anime fans in school, while the other kids are just retarded weeaboos with FMA key chains and Naruto headbands. They try too hard to make themselves seem cool and funny by saying, really loudly in the presence of other people, "Okay, speak English, no one's going to understand you if you make jokes in Japanese!!" while they sip their strawberry soy milk and eat their Pocky. I don't mean to sound mean, but I guess I had to vent someplace.

Doesn't it feel like you're the only authentic fan? (wherever you are?)

But, I digress, that really had nothing to do with >>1 's post, also, I kinda summed up what other people wrote.

167 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2007-10-13 05:53 ID:TSleotQM

>>166

Yeah. I mean, it's one thing to own keychains because you like the show, but it's another to own them just for the sole purpose of saying "I own a Japanese keychain from FMA!!!" I eat Pocky, but only because it tastes good, not because it's "OMG JAPANESEEEE!!!". And I don't eat it at school (people always want a pack).

It always ticked me off when they advertised Rave Master in the school book order forms as "This book is COOL! It reads BACKWARDS!".

I've been lucky to meet two fellow girl otaku that don't go squealing about how hot Itachi is 24/7, or how much yaoi fanfiction they've been reading. They're competent otaku. That makes me very happy.

Good luck finding competent women otaku you guys...

168 Name: rii ynara : 2007-10-13 10:01 ID:Z4RGgx0G

i think being an otaku is ok as long as they dont get too annoying. i consider myself one but i dont go around travelin in packs talkin bout how awsome naruto is(narutards ftw!?!) and bla blah. but i think its a good thing to be proud to a certain degree. ;O

169 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2007-10-13 15:59 ID:Kmfx+XQn

Recently I found someone that likes anime at my junior college but I don't really feel like I can connect to him with meaningful conversations because all he likes is pretty much anime he has seen on TV and Shonen Jump magazine. I have a broad knowledge of all kinds of anime so it's kind of hard trying to relate to him.

I think the problem here is that these kind of people, as well as narutards and whatnot, are beginner anime fans. But I think they are also not willing to go outside their usual anime watching preferences and expand their mind with different genres.

170 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2007-10-14 01:53 ID:/nrEauUX

Narutards aren't real otaku in the first place, they're mainstream wannabes.

It's not as bad as meeting a decent looking girl that you connect well with, only to learn that she's going out with a weaboo you've had problems with in the past.

Na ja. If not for said weaboo, all the other geeks I get along with wouldn't gather at that same place on campus every day.

It's a vicious little mixed blessing...

173 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2007-10-17 04:59 ID:Alri6wcF

I think it would be pretty cool, to meet a otaku girl at my college, I my self watch anime and read manga pretty casually nothing crazy, I don't have a room wall to wall with figures or anything. Then again I have got friends who were not into anime at all and because of me they are now fans. So heck I'd be fine to just meet a girl I can get to like anime, I'd be a super plus to find a girl who's as big a One Piece fan as I am but, I am probably never gonna happen.

203 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2008-01-29 00:08 ID:ztD+l88c

there seems to be a general misconception that female otaku like "real food" and "nice clothes"...as well as that they dont like hentai. I will voice against that, while i might be alone on this one. Yuri, Yaoi, Hentai. Its all anime, along with the furufuru shojo type. As for the real food thing, why spend money on food when you can have manga, anime or pirated pocky? [the real stuffs much to expensive]

Thin, and at least reasonably attractive. Maybe the misconception that there aren't any/many good looking otaku out there comes from some of us not being obviously otaku.

You don't even want to know what lurks around Sacramento's anual Anime con....shivers or do you? XD
This was no ordinary otaku girl...this was a fat lady in her 30-40's+, who cosplays prettymuch any character with a short skirt or school girls.
She's usually found bending over in front of cameras. >.>
What's worse, is she was one of the staff, and runs the cosplay skit session...shivers I think those dimply-chunky legs burnt out my eyes and ruined every character I ever seen her cosplay.
(not to mention her face looked like the witch from Wizard of OZ.)

TRUE OTAKU

OMFG I didn't think they existed in English-speaking countries.

231 Name: Definitionfag!SGRPrwhmGE : 2008-02-18 05:08 ID:Ch/dRpih

Alright, so I'm seeing a distinction here between Otaku, Weeaboo, and two other things that have no name.

Otaku = Knows Japanese terminology and anime as if they moved to American from 2CH land (slight exaggeration, obviously), who are otherwise mentally stable people

Weeaboo = Japanophile = Eats pocky/gets keychains/gets excited about anything Japanese for the heck of it, but never really attempts to learn any of the various aspects of Japanese culture or sub-culture in detail

Unnamed = Fan? = Individual who enjoys watching some anime, reads some manga, might know some Japanese (or be fluent), but isn't a philiac and has a somewhat normal interaction with the world (even if they may be the shy/reserved/anxious type, though this person may also be otherwise socially normal)

Unnamed = Cultural Interest in Japan = Isn't really into a lot of anime or manga, mostly enjoys Japanese culture, history, etc.

Can we get some terms defined here?

I never heard of any Fujoshi that wants Otaku as her boy friend.
will be good if I ever meet any of em in RL though.

I don't understand why being otaku is cool...

252 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2008-04-13 14:47 ID:HuQe5OJ1

My girlfriend and I watch anime and play alot of games, but I don't think either of us would call ourselves otaku. More like just... nerds. Same basic thing but with less association to unwashed weeaboos.

253 Name: Tsukiyo : 2008-04-15 06:16 ID:sIi/lsyn

i KNOW a ton of female otaku heck i room with 3 at the convention here last year and gonna again this year but i will admit none are my girlfriend and im still single but hey that can always change....i hope T_T

254 Name: Sen : 2008-04-15 12:11 ID:qOMRyygJ

I'd say I am a female otaku.. I know other people who read manga and watch anime, but they are nowhere near as obsessive as me. I'm a manga otaku, more specifically shojo manga. Though.. I don't really like the term Otaku. It's like being called a geek; It's an insult!!
I am also technically a fujoshi.. as I really like reading shonen ai manga. >_<

255 Name: Tsukiyo : 2008-04-15 15:48 ID:sIi/lsyn

lol shoujo is great and shonen too both have good and bad ones so i cant complain about either and im more obsessed with anime than anyone i know too XD

Otaku is just a word in japan for obssessive geeks, normally talking about gamers or anime fans. Not really gender specific as far as I know, but the stereotype is that they're male.

>>257
Argh, a life without manga would destroy me. I'd be sitting at home in my room, staring out of the window all day. Manga is my escapism and my obsession!! >_<

Is the question directed at the shoujo bit, the shounen ai bit or the fact that i can't live without them in general?

Either way, yes. Honestly. I spend almost all of my spare time reading manga online. They're a major form of escapism for me.
I'm a romantic at heart, hence the shoujo and shounen ai in preference to shounen manga. Not that I don't like shounen.
I'm currently reading liar game, for example.

Sorry, but no. Plus.. even if I did have MSN, why would I post my address on an anonymous bulleting board where everyone can see it?

267 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2008-04-27 20:36 ID:pAS3wOLM

I used to date a female otaku, she was quite attractive too. Every friday she'd come around my place and we'll watch some anime but because she wanted to go home early, about 4pm, I only had about 3 hours with her a week, barring the anime club we met at we didn't get far and broke up a few days after her birthday.

Thinking about this I should post this in the romance board since I want some advice so I'll keep this version short. Most female otaku are either fat or not used to relationships. Admittedly so are men so it's hard for both genders to stop being ronery and discuss how kaiji is moe. The only way I got with her was her non-geeky friend to say "She wants to date you. I gurantee it."

268 Name: Sen : 2008-04-27 22:12 ID:P2lis8eR

>>267
Either I know alot of people who do not fit the common stereotype, or they're not actually otaku. ^_^
I personally fit the second option: Not used to relationships.
Not that it bothers me. At all, really. I could live without dating anyone. On the otherhand, if my favourite manga was cancelled entirely, I think I might become suicidal.

I'm a female otaku. underage tho^_- sorry guys. only 14years but I'm 5ft 9in and b-cup and bi, but I'm a crazy obsessed otaku. I have over 300 volumes of manga and over 28 series'. I have a freind who is kinda like an otaku, but really, shes just perverted. she loves yaoi. and she pretty much only watches the graphic ones. its funny becaus shes this tiny little 84 pound person. anyways,I'm actually trying to learn to write japanese. After watching over 200 series' of anime I memorized about 300 japanese words and it got me interested. I also likedrawing anime style(and I'm pretty damn good at it). Also, what you say at anime conventions is true. those chicks make my eyes burn TT_TT that is so not a place for one lonely bi chick . My parents won't ever let me go to any conventions near me because they think ill get raped. however, i always thaught it would be cool if I could meet my byfrend in an anime convention.

Whoa whoa whoa, I was just browsing through here, but I'm sorry, I can't let >>272 go.

>I'm a female otaku. underage tho^_- sorry guys.

Please learn to type. It's really hard to understand what the hell you're even trying to say when utype lke thids^^.

>^_-

Please don't use emoticons here. They were cute 6 years ago, we've grown out of them now.

>only 14years

Believe me, we can tell. Your immaturity is a real turn off. You're going to have to work hard if you want to fit in here.

>but I'm 5ft 9in and b-cup and bi, but I'm a crazy obsessed otaku

Now you're just fishing for compliments. Please don't do that, it's very annoying, and is not relevant to the topic.

>crazy obsessed otaku. I have over 300 volumes of manga and over 28 series

While it is good that you have a good grasp of the basics, I don't think you're really "crazy obsessed". There are A LOT more people out there that have A LOT more anime, manga, figures, character books, understanding of Japanese culture, etc. I recommend learn you're limits; it can be really embarrassing if you over estimate yourself.

> its funny becaus shes this tiny little 84 pound person.

Again, how is this relevant to the topic?

>anyways,I'm actually trying to learn to write japanese. After watching over 200 series' of anime I memorized about 300 japanese words and it got me interested.

If you're really interested in learning Japanese, anime is the worst place to start. People in Japan do not talk the way they do in anime, and if you were to go over there you would be laughed out of the country.

>I also likedrawing anime style(and I'm pretty damn good at it).Also, what you say at anime conventions is true. those chicks make my eyes burn TT_TT that is so not a place for one lonely bi chick

Cocky, aren't we? How are you so sure your not one of those ugly girls?

>My parents won't ever let me go to any conventions near me because they think ill get raped. however, i always thaught it would be cool if I could meet my boyfriend in an anime convention.

Despite what you may think, your situation is not unique or special. Many parents won't let their kids go to conventions. You should be thankful they even let you watch anime. Also, if you really think you'll meet your boyfriend at a convention, you are sadly mistaken.

You know, the more I read your post, the more I wonder why you're even on 4-ch. I think it would be better for everyone if you were to frequent a website that catered more to your personality. I think you'd be more at home at 4-chan, Anime News Networks forums, or any other number of Anime sites out there.
Gaia has a pretty large anime fanbase. Same goes for >>273 and >>268.

Speaking of hentai.. I wonder what other female otaku think about it.
I'm personally ok with it. I read yaoi and I have read some mild hentai.. though the focus is normally on the girl (as is expected, really) rather than the guy. However, I know some female otaku who despise the thought of hentai, let alone reading it. They also claim to not like yaoi which to me is a little odd, as most female otaku (aside from those few) enjoy yaoi immensely.

301 Name: Sen : 2008-07-12 23:44 ID:vVgg3n2P

I said most female otaku.. but i meant out of the ones I have spoken to. Because it sounds like a massive generalisation otherwise.
Still. I refuse to believe there are any female otaku who don't like yaoi. It's like male otaku who don't like hentai. Impossible!!
Like Ohno san said, 'there is no such thing as a girl who hates yaoi!!'
They had to be lying.

Sorry for the double post. I just... needed to say that.

Sorry to be commenting on a post so far back but I just found this thread.

I always considered a "Japanophile" to be someone who, like a xenophile does with foreign cultures in general, enjoys Japanese culture.
I don't know, it's difficult for me to define where I would fit (weeaboo, otaku, Japanophile, et cetera) because I like Japanese culture and have been studying Japanese for several years. In addition to this I do enjoy anime and manga, but I wouldn't lose my interest in Japan without these. However, my interest in anime does take up quite a bit of time for me...

>>301
I sincerely dislike yaoi and I'm female. I don't know if I qualify as an otaku, but I would say that I do because of how much I do enjoy anime and manga. To each his/her own, right? I don't find yaoi thrilling in the least.

QFT.

The people who most commonly and casually use "otaku" to describe themselves are usually not otaku, but neophytes who think it's a cool Japanese term for "anime fan." Fans who know enough about the Japanese language and culture to know that the term is profoundly not one of respect either:

Accept their position as social outcasts with pride, and embrace the term (these are the *true otaku).
*Prefer to avoid the association, and therefore don't identify with the term (some of these might be considered closet otaku).

She is batshit insane, and I love her for that

I am so jealous of you now...

359 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2008-07-28 05:20 ID:y5vz9Hj4

I'm female and a complete Otaku, and perhaps even future NEET. If I don't read manga, I play N64 or NES or even my Atari, vintage consoles are the best. I can be compared to most males, except I do like yaoi, a little but, but not very much anymore, it was worse when I was younger. I used to be a batshit fangirl, which is a little bit weird for e to say about myself, but it's true. I prefer reading hetero hentai or lesbian hentai over yaoi now, just because It's my current preference.

My ex was also an Otaku. I remember he used to draw a lot of Lucky Star fan art, and bought a Lucky Star Uniform and made me dye my hair lavendar so I could roleplay as Tsukasa in bed, actually, if you ask me, that was a little bit disturbing. I think I dumped him shortly after that. My current boyfriend is also an Otaku but a lot less strange with his fetishes. His main fetish is feet, so he does my nails a lot, which I don't mind, the weirdest thing he ever did was just painting little Asukas on my toe nails...but it was cute.

360 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2008-07-28 08:16 ID:mPpPlImp

what i've noticed from female otaku is that they're mostly bat-shit insane because they try to fill a gigantic hole in their lives with anime and they take the dojiko(sp?)-moe factor to the nth level. they also smell funny. usually from alcohol or the lack of bathing

Seriously, theres way too many fatties amongst the anime fanbase. Where's your self-respect? Being fat is unhealthy and ugly. You should feel ashamed of yourself for letting yourself go.

374 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2008-07-31 12:06 ID:7vhy67C4

It is sad to see overweight people sometimes...I mean, it's not about it being un-attractive to most people, but also because they are prone to so many horrible diseases and health problems. However it's not totally untrue that they can't be cute or handsome being a little pudgy, but when it gets to be majorly bad, then it's just sad, and really shows alot about how much the person really cares about things.

375 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2008-07-31 13:16 ID:guAbPNrc

They should change knowing it reinforces the overweight otaku idea

376 Name: Sen : 2008-08-28 21:21 ID:m9C61oYU

Weight is an issue even outside the anime community. It's just a shame that the common stereotype has become that of an overweight geek, often wearing glasses, often male etc. But you can't change yourself for an outside reason. You have to want to do it yourself. Which is a pain.
I'm quite socially inept, myself, and I really don't like the thought of walking into a gym amongst all these other superfit people and ask for a gym card. I can just imagine them looking at me, scrutinising me, laughing at me when I can barely run nonstop for five minutes and they've been running for an hour. And I'm not even fat. Just physically unfit. So for someone who is overweight, it must be a lot worse. It's just a case of whether the will to get fit is greater than the fear of being scrutinised. For me, the fear is much greater and I remain at my computer, happily immersing myself in manga. And life is good and safe and not scary. Until I have to answer the telephone.

>>334
You do. You just don't know it yet.

>>341
I'm actually another what? Uninformed moron?
Hmm. Entirely possible, I guess. I mean, until someone corrects you, you don't actually know that you're wrong/uninformed about something. To be honest. If you're not calling me an uninformed moron, awesome. If you are, correct me so I don't make the same uninformed, stupid comment in the future.

Did that make any sense? I think half way through it became a ramble.

377 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2008-08-28 21:56 ID:64WUpDrp

Not only ramble but personal details that must need the compliment

378 Name: Sen : 2008-08-28 23:38 ID:m9C61oYU

I was actually trying to make a point.. And I really wasn't giving out that many personal details. Just trying to express my view by using an analogy. Sorry. Won't happen again. ¬_¬

Oh, and for the record, I meant I was rambling in the last bit. I thought my first point was actually quite coherent. Obviously not.

379 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2008-08-29 00:36 ID:64WUpDrp

388 Name: RAO!8NBuQ4l6uQ : 2008-09-05 08:31 ID:ZDHAtUbb

Otaku girlfriend's boyfriend here. She's big on Touhou and Tsukihime, but she doesn't read very much doujin. She's also totally gay for Minorin. Compared to most other female otaku around here (who tend to be immense Narutards, slow, mallgoths or etc) she's actually fairly educated in deeper otaku culture. She's sort-of reluctant to use forums/boards though, but she browses /cgl/ occasionally.

Also, I was planning on buying her a Figma Miku, But I've been beat out by pre-order quotas ;_;

Otaku girls are much more interesting than the guys in my opinion, or at least the ones I've met. I actually learned about this place from an otaku chick >.> Idk, it just seems the guys don't talk about anime as much as the women do. It might be different elsewhere, but so far, most otakus I've met are spastic or lethargic women (not that either is a bad thing).

Anyone ever run into a Female Narutard? You know, the ones who are obsessed with either Itachi or Sasuke, and they only know the anime that has appeared on Adult Swim, or barely anything else, they always cosplay Naruto chars, and call themselves "otaku" all the time, their pronounciation usually is horrible, and they usually appear at US anime cons?! Or how about the people who are always making their own fan made drawings and dolls possibly in weird pictures that they fantisized about or a million other nerdy narutard wannabe otaku girls?

Yeah most girl Otakus I know are Yaoi fans too. While I am fine
with someone liking that, I'd really wish they wouldn't flaunt
it about so much. I really don't care who their favorite pairing
is, much less why, and just because I am female myself it
doesn't automaticly mean I like Yaoi too. In fact, it rather
turns me off.

My girlfriend has yet to watch Kannagi 12 and 13... I want to talk to her about it soooo much but I don't want to spoil it for her.

We only talk about anime, cosplay, visual novels and the like with each-other, save for this other guy we know who has this crazy infatuation with Pokemon, which I respect because he isn't one of those scenester fags who just wear Pokemon shirts for the retro cred. But even then, we just talk about video games with him.

Recently she's gotten me into Tower of Druaga and Hayate no Gotoku. I'm recommending Kara no Kyoukai to her like mad but she's yet to torrent it.

If I meet one, I'll be sure to let you know...

423 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2009-06-21 04:40 ID:asufJbnt

As far as I can tell, 90% of the female otaku around my area are "vampire otaku".
I've been tempted so many times to use the "We already have a Twilight anime. It's called "Vampire Knight" line.

And of course, along with the vampire gothic obsession comes the Death Note obsession. The live action Death Note movie in my theater was a nightmare.
"OMG L is eating. He's eating. KAWAIIIIII! OMG He's eating AGAIN."

There's a few female otaku I know that are really cool and very "Hey, even though I like yaoi, I'm not going to force it on you.", but generally, it seems the words "Vampire" and "Gothic" can describe my area.

424 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2009-06-26 15:33 ID:SNKSt02f

There are a lot of otaku girls.
But most of them just stupid bitch and attention whores. Well, it is common description for any woman. You shouldn't expect some kind of mentality improvement just because she is anime fan.

I know many girls (and am one) who are into anime and/or manga, but aren't over the top obsessed with it.
That's the best type. One who likes and respects it, but doesn't make it a lifestyle.

  1. Waifu = wife. Unless you're a lesbian, it'd be a bit fucked up.
  2. Otaku girls are usually fat or ugly. There was a nice bunch of them at my old HS. 2 of them were fucking hot with nice juicy tits and great asses, but the rest of them were textbook uggos. I mean really fucking ugly. If you get a hot one, good for you, but i wouldn't limit my options to just otaku girls.

What, and the male otaku aren't usually fat and ugly as well? Most interactions I see among anime fans online convince me that geeks are bitter dicks who hate women.

Shared hobbies are nice and all, but I'd rather have a man who wasn't silently comparing me to some 2-D corporate designed bitch all the time.
