Female Otaku (443)

1 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2007-06-14 12:39 ID:NIvfFMds

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.

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.

>>101
well, he likes you, what can you do about it?
if you don't like him "that" way, i would tell him right away; the problem will be gone :)

>Cha-La-Head-Cha-La (KONATA's version for heaven sakes)

love that song! its the best one on the ED karaoke box :D

who cares about her age

105 Name: 101 : 2007-08-10 20:53 ID:M+E61iAS

>>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)

fuck that

>>106

XDXD Yes indeed. I hate telling people that they're annoying when they really are, so I never do... But he's the one I've come close to telling...

Okay. Soooo... Anyone else got any interesting female/male otaku stories?

What anime do you like except of らき☆すた?

109 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2007-08-12 09:09 ID:StZsBmAA

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

111 Name: 110 : 2007-08-12 14:01 ID:/XyZKz2Q

Favorite anime, whoops, I forgot Genshiken of all things O_O

Yes, I love that anime to death. I aspire to be like Madarame someday =D

112 Name: Kite_DH!3GqYIJ3Obs : 2007-08-13 15:27 ID:kVEdrGwL

>>110
mostly typical girl anime.
why do you try to be a anime character? thats more like "weeaboo", not "otaku"

113 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2007-08-13 17:51 ID:ro9AEVrk

Did somebody say "weeaboo?" 'Cause I think I heard someone say "weeaboo."

114 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2007-08-13 22:11 ID:Fu7YoQ4X

do you guys think female otaku are rare?! cos i dont.

115 Name: Another Female...Something : 2007-08-14 03:40 ID:SCngww8u

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

>>110
I approve of your love of moe characters. :D

116 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2007-08-14 03:40 ID:rZ86DZHL

日本では女otakuはそんなに多くない。
fujoshiと呼ばれる。モテナイしな

Among Japan as for woman otaku it is not many so.
It is called fujoshi. [motenai] it does,

117 Name: Kite_DH!3GqYIJ3Obs : 2007-08-14 09:09 ID:ke7qGFUR

>>116
fujoshi = rotten woman
-> yaoi fangirls

118 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2007-08-14 11:52 ID:zexmro4I

>>105
Have Miko Miko Nurse ready if he asks to listen again. XD

>>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.

they try hard to be japanese and its very amusing watching them fail.

121 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2007-08-15 19:42 ID:Wt/qdNEM

Female anime fans don't exist. They are all busy sucking men's dicks and making sandwiches, like the bitches should.

>>121 Shut up you sexist! (btw: i am male ;))

Hope you are just trolling around and that this is not your real opinion.

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.

Well, I happen to enjoy Genshiken. So I get most of my behaviour from Sasahara, except that I don't get hard while looking at yaoi pictures of myself.

>>124
again a weeaboo-girl? WHY DO PEOPLE TRY TO ACT LIKE ANIME CHARACTERS???

I made this thread to talk about FEMALE OTAKU not FEMALE WAPANESE

alright? good.

126 Name: Loser : 2007-08-16 12:47 ID:82VMzO+x

It would be great if the girls/women not only do act like anime-characters, BUT also have their beautiful look :)

But this is impossible though :((

127 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2007-08-16 13:26 ID:glcvuXDa

>>125

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.

128 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2007-08-16 21:28 ID:Heaven

This thread contains so much idiocy, it might just collapse into a black hole of dumb any second now. Keep away!

129 Name: 110 : 2007-08-17 16:06 ID:FY9Abg53

>>120

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)

>>125

Yaoi pictures of MYSELF

123 Pretty much summed a lot of it up.

>>125
I think there's a difference between trying to act like an anime character, and just plain acting like an anime character unconsciously.

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.

133 Name: 130 : 2007-08-18 05:55 ID:RXdvc6Ji

>>131

Yeah. Sometimes, it just happens (My inner voice screaming at me during a con ala Sasahara style, Sometimes acting like the "tsukkomi" character unconsciously, Driving like Yukari-sensei...)

134 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2007-08-18 15:37 ID:Heaven

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"...

>>129

I think we'd get along. :P

137 Name: 133 : 2007-08-23 02:04 ID:f7xmzpDK

>>136

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.

138 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2007-08-23 10:52 ID:jvGg9/yY

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.

Well I will say this my girlfriend is not an otaku but normies are good. Because of her I exercise and I lost about 100 pounds and am much happier now. 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"...

155 Name: Kite_DH!3GqYIJ3Obs : 2007-09-10 02:04 ID:anKFXWJG

>>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.

Merely eating with chopsticks doesn't make you wapanese -- Japanese and Chinese food is supposed to be eaten with them.

However, eating french fries with chopsticks makes you wapanese.

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...

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

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.

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.

You have a much better chance of finding a female One Piece maniac than a female Lucky ☆ Star maniac, but that's just a guess.

He means one his age, I'm sure.

176 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2007-10-19 05:20 ID:XVjI5t6K

>>174 one piece? yuck! Lucky star!!! lucky star!!! lucky star!!!!!!!! How do i type the star symbol? I = female. you're probably right though... I've met more girls who like one piece than I have who love lucky star ... and those were my age :( and i'm college aged lol

177 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2007-10-19 07:02 ID:zu8rdEpz

I'd be afraid to meet anyone who liked Lucky Star and wasn't aware of context. (that it is an empty marketing campaign for haruhi)

178 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2007-10-19 15:05 ID:Heaven

I would say it's an empty marketing campaign for (insert almost anything here.)

Do you like Hidamari Sketch?

180 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2007-10-20 03:30 ID:Heaven

im engaged to one.. and she's pretty hot as well. it's like a living paradox in western society. She's into the classic stuff like Berserk, Vampire Hunter D; that sorta thing

181 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2007-10-20 08:14 ID:Heaven

Hidamari Sketch is the best slice of life I'd seen for a while. Minami-ke is currently battling it in my mind.

182 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2007-10-20 17:28 ID:1eG9g+v1

I don't know any otakus, with the exception of myself.

type "hoshi" in hiragana mode, then search the symbol with the space button

I stand corrected. lol

Why should I do this Anonymous? Will you pay me, or give me candy?

Y'see the thing that has the number 176 next to it in that post? You click it and it refers you to a different post.

If you'll notice, you'll see she was asking how to get the star symbol people typically use when typing out Lucky Star.

It's not that hard of a concept to grasp, really.

187 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2007-11-02 08:04 ID:y2g5IB+R

i know a lot of female otaku, just lucky i guess

188 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2007-11-05 05:20 ID:XVjI5t6K

176 here :)

an empty marketing campaign? really? are you sure? [L.O.L] doesn't stop it from being adorable and funny.

hidamari sketch is still on my list of things to check out.

>>183 thanks!

you son of a bitch nigger women disgust me! Anime female rules!

190 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2007-11-13 12:53 ID:Sr0mUngC

I think female otaku like mangas which have boys love.
I don't know that much...

191 Name: 【沈黙-ω-】!Sleepy/hkE : 2007-11-18 10:03 ID:tAAiWN/h

In Japan,women who like boys love
are usually called "HUJOSHI"
It means corrupt

192 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2007-11-18 10:05 ID:Heaven

Otaku is for retards. If you actually like anime you don't need to act like a otafag who munches on pockey and draws animu all day.

195 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2007-11-27 08:00 ID:Heaven

No real otaku draws animu. That would be a useful skill.

196 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2007-11-28 00:43 ID:Heaven

Uh, dude, >>195: Pretty much everyone who "draws animu" is a raging otaku.

197 Name: Fullmetalstrawberry : 2007-11-28 02:57 ID:+K5Kow7e

I find it hard to meet female otaku where I live. Its a shame, I would love some company. >_<

198 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2007-12-03 02:17 ID:/nrEauUX

I think I met one at the cinema the other day.
