What do wewe think 'Otaku' is?

oku's actual definition is a loser that never leav es the house basically. so when people say that i cant help but laugh :)

im sure that not what they mean to call themselves, but thats when i think when i hear otaku

For me, the defination of a otaku is a really obessed anime fan. anime mashabiki call themselves otaku but its only outside japan, the thing is that a otaku in japan is a nerd, a geek. But in the western side is zaidi like calling wewe a big anime fan. But the real
otaku is a,person who had devoured his au
her life for manga and anime. That person
is probably unsocial, know almost EVERYTHING about manga and anime, doesnt even eat chakula au going to the toilet unless they really need it, and stuff like that. But if wewe like manga and anime but still life,your normal life, youre a anime fan. ^^

Before I used to treat the word "Otaku" lightly, yes, I admit it.
But now for me, it means: Someone who's life completely revolves around anime and manga. wewe don't have a life outside it.

I think it's somebody that stays at nyumbani the whole siku kusoma manga and watching anime. Obsessive fan, yeah. It's usually referring to guys I think. They try to avoid contact with females because of low self-esteem, and instead collect figurines of female anime characters.

Otaku:

A person PURELY in upendo au obessed with anime !

<3 OTAKUS FORVER <333333

I think the defintion of otaku isn't something worth trying to figure out. Each person defines it for themselves, so if someone comes up to wewe and says "I'm an otaku", all wewe have to know is that their definition of it might be something different than yours. I don't really care if people use it seriously au not.

In English it is often used to describe a person who likes anything that has a strong cultural link to Japan, anime, manga, video games, and even import cars can be linked to Japan and a person who likes these things can be described as an otaku using the English definition.

However

In Japanese the term does not have a real exact matching term, the closest one would have to be 'nerd' The term describes someone so obsessed that they do not associate themselves with anything else, such people are looked down upon in Japanese society and some killings have been associated with that alone.
