I am researching for a paper about Vocaloids and am trying to inteveiw fans as part of my research. I want all Vocaloid fans, the old and the new. So, If are inerested in helping me out, contact me! (And yes, we can hold the interveiw through Youtube)
@mewXxtaytay closet otaku means that she keeps her interest hidden away, not out in public. thats why she doesnt want everyone to find out that she is an otaku.
I'm aware of it's negative meaning in Japan, but in the west otaku has just come to mean someone with an active interest in anime and manga. It's a banner we can all identify under like saying you're a Trekkie or a Whovian or a belieber. Language is flexible, and besides, Japan has more than enough loan words from us no?
I would hate to be called an otaku I am proud of what I love but I wouldn't consider it an unhealthy obsession. Many so called otaku are misunderstood though.
Me and my girlfriend were both into dubstep... Yeah we played it loud, and rocked it loud... :D Until I found Gumi, i started rocking to this, and my girlfriend got pissed she said... "Drop the anime you otaku" . .. ... .... ..... I don't have a Girlfriend anymore... All well Gumi's enough for me!
So, my friend told me something surprising and disappointing yesterday... Apparently the word "otaku" is shunned by anime fans and is used by weaboos?
Yup, this is very true. Same with randomly saying Japanese words because you heard it in an anime. I personally only do it, because I'm legitimately trying to learn the language, so I'll say a phrase every now and then to help get it into my head.
Ahahah xD My friend and I, Last day of school sadly, but I still see her at anime club <3 She cosplayed as Xion from Kingdom Hearts, and I Spectra from Bakugan. xD
DESU. i am a total hardcore of otakus, and my friend is a normal one.
here is the huge problem: i keep up an act of despising and hating yaoi/yuri and yaoi/yuri pairings because my friend hates the daylights of of them, but i secretly adore them. i can't let her sleep over unless i hide my doujinshis, rrip my pics off my wall, and hide my manga and shut my computer down. DX everyone but her knows. i don't tell her because i watched this pairing for these two anime characters from a show she
@nemuanimation ADORES. i feel empty inside not telling her. heck, even my boyfriend knows i watch and read the stuff (hes the one that got me into it)
but i guess it doens't matter, some things you should keep to yourself, i know this because i found out that sydney secretly like perverted animes and adores them all. >:D
well, thats enought for tonight, need sleep *looks at time* midnight, i guess a few more songs won't kill me.
So the other day while my class was locked inside for a free period (because our teacher sucks) I was going to read some manga and sketch but then one of my super "Slutty" and girly-girl friends comes up and starts talking about boy problems etc. With more then an hour left we drifted to the subject of video games... then Larping, then how we are book nerds etc etc then all of a sudden I look at her phone and there's some Miku wallpaper and i'm all WTF, slutty b*** my arse! :D lol CLOSET OTAKU!
It has been said that someone is reporting miku songs for copyright. they are trying to get miku erased from the internet forever. they don't know who or why, but it has to stop.
and next will be luka, rin, len, and all the other vocaloids.
SAVE MIKU AND SPREAD THE WORD
~I'm not trying to spam, I just don't want vocaloid gone forever!~
@undivinexxgrace Actually in Japan, Otaku means something else. It means someone who is unhealthily obsessed with something, and was considered an insult at one point. Anime otaku are the most popular in the West but in Japan you end up with Cosplay Otaku, Train Otaku, Radio Otaku... etc.
@sonikku35 Not exactly. If you called your grandmother an Otaku(noun) it'd usually be insulting. Its a pop culture/media title for unhealthily obsessive people.
@MasterAsra No it's not calling them an otaku. In the real sense of the word otaku, otaku is not a noun. Otaku meaning a shut-in is more slang than actual Japanese language.
@sonikku35 It'll become a real world eventually, with the increased usage. Newspapers, politicians and almost all of Japan use it to mean shut-in nerds, and sometimes just people obsessed with something in general. You can say its slang, but everyone knows the meaning of it.
お宅 = House still, or people of your house/family. Though its not 'only' for your family anymore. People calling someone an Otaku generally aren't insinuating they're in the same house or family as that person.
Well how old are you? I'm 28 and I've been watching anime since 88' my advice is keep watching regardless of what others think or say, I rember when I was in midle and high school anime wasn't consitered cool by any meens. I got teased and bullied for my taste. Oh well I guess somethings never change. Oh well atleats anime is widly avalible on the net.I rember the days of vhs and mail order back when lazer disc was still pressed ah. Oh well I hope ya never loose love for this art form
me too my sister makes fun of me i feel like saying screw you and I have no friends that watch anime I dont tell them they would say I am weird any advice? also I LOVE THIS SONG : D
I don't think anyone should have to apologize for liking the anime and manga franchise. Honestly, I often wonder what other people, who don't watch or read it, talk about. Their lives must be incredibly boring and redundant.
Also, I've come to notice that the most exciting, and interesting, people are the ones who enjoy anime, but we also get the backlash of fans who are a little over the top, which is what a lot of folks focus on when they judge "otaku's". o:
Theres nothing wrong with being an otaku, I have been one for years and I'll admit, it can get kinda lonely at times. Just gotta keep your head up because there are other people out there, they are just hard to find sometimes... Unless of course your here watching this video, then we are everywhere XD
I refuse to admit that I'm an otaku, even though I'm pretty positive I am. I'll never say it out loud.
I wish I knew other people who like anime as much as I do! None of my friends understand, and all the people who do like anime and manga that I've met were such weaboos. It's so frustrating! My family didn't understand for a long time either, I spent a year hardly coming out of my room because I was busy with anime and everything related. But I got my sister hooked and it's a lot better now.
@GloriousOtaku ^^' I see what you mean... In Holland it isn't very appreciated too. Especialy by those kids who think they're better. ._.' If you're cosplaying, you can already expect people think you're weird. x"D
I guess I've been lucky in always having friends with similar tastes. I know/knew a crap load of people who liked anime and manga, maybe not to the point of being an Otaku, but at least enough to engage in a conversation with them about it.
I am cosplaying gumi in a flash mob with my friends and the choreographer decided to do this song. I was speechless because this song completely describes me... Kinda creepy in a way x3
I went to school as L, since its the easiest thing to do and im Broke xD so i cant get a fancy costume... ._. no one noticed.. Im the only one that Watches anime and Dresses the way I do. They dont know what their missing:D Animes the Best n.n
im an otaku at my school and at home no one likes anime at home or at school! i felt so lonely when it came to that kind of stuff.... Till one day a guy came to my school dressed as Naruto!
One day I borrowed my friend's Miku wig. I was walking around the streets, joking around with him dressed up as Kaito-kun. We joked and suddenly a guy poked us and asked if he could take a pic. Then I saw it was my CLASSMATE. I freaked out and hid behind my friend, since none of them will ever know about my otaku-ness, since everyone in my village hate it and my friend lives far from me and rarely comes. ._.
@KibblesSezHi I know right, same here. Or maybe it's more like /I/ don't give a shit what anyone thinks of me? xD I don't overdo it either, anyway. AGH, rambling, sorry!
I'm an otaku,and almost no one likes me because i'm weird and unapproachable,then i met my friends who all are Otakus...we are really good friends,we all agree that when they first met me,no one knew I was an Otaku until I told them...
@TheMainOtaku It's awesome that u found someone that u can relate to about anime. I actually have a new group of friends, and all ten of them are otakus!!! It made me so happy when I first talked to them, and they said they were into anime. My fangirl side of me just came out and they've been my friends ever since. They love anime and some even play WoW. I don' play WoW but I do play Wizard101 and one of my friends also plays it too :D
Im a Otaku and the only one at my school and at home no one likes anime at home or at school! I Felt so lonely when it came to that kind of stuff...Till one day a guy came to my school dressed as Naruto! I looked at him and he looked at me we busted out laughing! i told him how lonely it is being a otaku he told me i wont have to be lonely any more! We have been bff's Since then!
@TheMainOtaku I'm laughing at your comment - I remember what it felt like when I got into anime in the 1980's. Back then, no one even knew what anime was! i was lucky to have an older sister and her friends who were into it, so I could see it. Back then she had friednds who were pen pals with kids in Japan who were fans of American animation and they exchanged beta video tapes. No kidding-it's true. And for fun, check out the anime fan parody "This is Otakudom"
@TheMainOtaku Lucky you! I wish someone would do the same on my school! Well, untill then I need to enjoy myself with my favorite manga and anime. ^^'
@TheMainOtaku it was like that for me at college. i honestly didnt know about anime until college (was sheltered from a lot of stuff except video games and was immeresed in them as of major problems with schools(too painful to even remember as i forced myself to forget the major stuff)) but once i found it i was hooked. no one understood till last year when someone who was in my class was wearing a bleach shirt. we talked and had a lot in common, then i met his grilfriend. --next
@moltendaniel continued. and i discovered that they both loved it. and if it wasnt for her getting him the bleach shirt and him wearing it i would have never talked to him (im socially awkward and shy in a way) but weve been friends ever since. everyone else thinks im weird since hes now on a different course at college. the worst part is my sister thinks all anime is porn. she says (exact words which she says often) "all you do is sit in your room watching that weird japanese-----
@moltendaniel cont...porn shit".. no matter how i explain it to her she just doesnt fucking listen. so the only times i can express my anime love is when im with my freinds (college friend and his GF) or when im online on computer or xbox or psn. why are we so looked down upon?
otakus should be proud of what they are like the ganstas rep their rap like the emo kids be unhappy and dont give a shit. closed minded people think because its not from their culture its weird and like to make comments and pick on people thats sad i am otaku if anybody were to start picking on me for it id wing chun their ass soo bad
@stupidvidperson lol what's funny about this is that the Japanese -hate- their own otaku; most Americans who talk about how much they love Japanese culture probably wouldn't last 5 minutes outside of Shibuya.

I openly enjoy manga and anime, as well as my fellow anime loving friends and twin sister, unfortunantly my family is't a big fan of me liking it, my mom is ok with it, my dad hates the music and my nana hates Japan ( and pretty much every other country besides the US but she lived during WWII) my older sister calls me a weirdo, and my uncle well, he's a younger version of my Nana. But at least I have a few anime fans as friends. ( Who a majority are graduating this year leaving me with
I like the song but i dont see why anyone should hide their Otaku-ness. Me and my friends are damn proud to be Otakus and nearly are entire school is scared of us and even a few teachers. xD :3
This song fits me :D I'm an Otaku but only the family I live with (Mum, Dad, Sister) and fellow Otaku friends know :) I'd rather keep it secret from the rest of the people in my classes and my friends who don't watch anime.
@DessieDaBanana Wrong. A closet otaku is a person who tries to hide the fact that they are obsessed with anime and manga, and when cosplaying they do it far away from people they know.
I guess mother like daughter ( Gumi's mother cosplayed at the end) (#^.^#)

I gone into cosplay somehow.
One day I borrowed my friend's Miku wig. I was walking around the streets, joking around with him dressed up as Kaito-kun. We joked and suddenly a guy poked us and asked if he could take a pic. Then I saw it was my CLASSMATE. I freaked out and hid behind my friend, since none of them will ever know about my otaku-ness, since everyone in my village hate it and my friend lives far from me and rarely comes. ._.

greatest thing about an otaku, even if there's no one around you who shares the same interests, you got the internet to back you up.

@TheMainOtaku It's awesome that u found someone that u can relate to about anime. I actually have a new group of friends, and all ten of them are otakus!!! It made me so happy when I first talked to them, and they said they were into anime. My fangirl side of me just came out and they've been my friends ever since. They love anime and some even play WoW. I don' play WoW but I do play Wizard101 and one of my friends also plays it too :D

@TheMainOtaku I'm laughing at your comment - I remember what it felt like when I got into anime in the 1980's. Back then, no one even knew what anime was! i was lucky to have an older sister and her friends who were into it, so I could see it. Back then she had friednds who were pen pals with kids in Japan who were fans of American animation and they exchanged beta video tapes. No kidding-it's true. And for fun, check out the anime fan parody "This is Otakudom"

@TheMainOtaku it was like that for me at college. i honestly didnt know about anime until college (was sheltered from a lot of stuff except video games and was immeresed in them as of major problems with schools(too painful to even remember as i forced myself to forget the major stuff)) but once i found it i was hooked. no one understood till last year when someone who was in my class was wearing a bleach shirt. we talked and had a lot in common, then i met his grilfriend. --next

@moltendaniel continued. and i discovered that they both loved it. and if it wasnt for her getting him the bleach shirt and him wearing it i would have never talked to him (im socially awkward and shy in a way) but weve been friends ever since. everyone else thinks im weird since hes now on a different course at college. the worst part is my sister thinks all anime is porn. she says (exact words which she says often) "all you do is sit in your room watching that weird japanese-----
moltendaniel 1 month ago in playlist More videos from lygerzero0zero
@moltendaniel cont...porn shit".. no matter how i explain it to her she just doesnt fucking listen. so the only times i can express my anime love is when im with my freinds (college friend and his GF) or when im online on computer or xbox or psn. why are we so looked down upon?

@TheMainOtaku id much rather prefer being an otaku into anime and stuff then a bunch of crazy party drinkers and smokers.

otakus should be proud of what they are like the ganstas rep their rap like the emo kids be unhappy and dont give a shit. closed minded people think because its not from their culture its weird and like to make comments and pick on people thats sad i am otaku if anybody were to start picking on me for it id wing chun their ass soo bad

@stupidvidperson lol what's funny about this is that the Japanese -hate- their own otaku; most Americans who talk about how much they love Japanese culture probably wouldn't last 5 minutes outside of Shibuya.

@nidodeproteccion it's actually called "Tokyo Big Sight" (the Japanese have some funny but logical naming to say the least :P)

@DessieDaBanana Wrong. A closet otaku is a person who tries to hide the fact that they are obsessed with anime and manga, and when cosplaying they do it far away from people they know.
