Love Plus Wedding Man on CNN

I have a commitment issue, so it's less likely that i would marry someone, easier to hunt shotas that way....oops.

The more i'm hearing about Otakus, the more i know they are one totally fucked up human beings.

This is going to make all us anime fans, be it closet, flamboyant, or casual look really really bad. Im kinda 50/50 on caring.
But a positive note is that all the attention this game is getting now may mean some company may bring it over to the states now!

the funny thing is that if some retarded preteen announced they had married Edward Cullen no one would think it was creepy/strange/sad (except for the depressingly small percentage of people that arent Twitarded). But if it's an anime/game character, oooooooh noooooooes

such a shame that otaku are too freaking lazy to get to know real women.
There are genuine caring women in the world, and in Japan too. As well as otaku women.
I'm an otaku woman, and I've been told by friends and complete strangers that I'm pretty, so it's not that I'm 3dpigdisgusting pparently. I actually dont think I could go out with any guy that didnt have any interest in anime, because I would bore him to death with my own obsessions.
And yet, I will probably never be able to get an 'otaku' boyfriend because they think all us women want is money, or they all hate anime, or they're totally ugly if they're not photoshopped to retarded levels.
No wonder so many japanese girls are seeking non japanese boyfriends.

Well, although what that poor idiot publically did is yet ANOTHER smear on the reputation of our community, you can't quite blame him.

Rather, the problem lies with the attitude of post 1980's women towards their men:

Which can be PREFECTLY summarized with the title of a stage play written by an Anti-Feminist in Melbourne, Australia:

"I Love You, You're Perfect. NOW CHANGE!!"

Can't wait for a sequel with more characters.

Silly 3D woman.
It is a 12,000-year proven fact that only through danger that real opportunities and success can be achieved.

Maybe Tiger Woods could take this for advice. At least it won't cost you half a billion...lol..

so epic. CNN is lame They make a big deal out of it...

A similar article regarding a Japanese man marrying a "Love Plus" character was also featured in the local news last week.

education is the limiter of humanity. if education evolves so does humanity. there's no normal/abnormal its just difference.

All you need is love...plus.

FUCKIN JAPANESES THEY ARE FUCKIN IDIOTS, WOMEN IN JAPAN A REALLY CUTE AND THEY ALL HAVE GREAT BODY.
THIS GUY IS THE REASON WHY JAPAN IS FREAKIN CRAZY AND STUPID

lol this guy is pro. Like how there is a hot chick playing ds or psp with those other 2 guys and they could give a shat.

Cool a want Senjougahara for my wife and moka chan tobe my wife too

I got bored of my Love Plus.
Seriously how does he stay interested?
They say the same things over and over, you cna't ask them direct questions noly stupid things like 'whats your favourite colour', then rub their faces like a moron.
And kissing is as far as it goes.. wheres the sex scenes?
If you ask me these virtual girls put out less than real girls HA

LOL I didn't notice her expression there.. that's funny XP My god though..

Mmmmm.. Senjougahara poster..

This guy is my hero I love my waifus moka and Senjougahara

Every man has had a 2d fantasy.

A "regular guy" might make fun of an otaku for loving a cartoon, but won't understand how that's the same as him whacking off to random blonde hookers in playboy or hustler...and hentai stories are always better than "Pizza guy bangs moderately attractive girl porn film #263357619"

WAnt it in Canada, please

I was under the impression that this was simply a publicity stunt for the game. In fact, I'm pretty sure I saw the video where he admitted that he was a fan of the game and had no problem "marrying" Nene.

Here's the vid.

Fake or not, they sure did a great job getting attention for the game. Hell, I don't even own a DS but want to play this game. XD

~Kuroko-like headbang on desk multiple times~

If he drops the DS in the water, does that mean he killed "his Nene"?

I can under stand the reasons why he would do this because the shy fool would most likely get ripped to sheds by most heartless cunts his age and then do an hero. His way is much safer.

I will take a 2d waifu over some 3d pig anytime.

sincerely, you can see the result, when the woman have enough freedom, they are a monster, only interest in money, not feelings, they sucks

maybe in the future people considerate private the freedom from de girls, they are good when she is responsable

islamic laws save us...

stupids of cnn...

Do I see Bakemonogatari?

iono guys maby hes had sum problems in his life with real ppl and now hes trying to escape reality with this and it aint healthy. but its wutever makes u happy in life and if this does it for him then hes gud. i support this guy

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA. Fuck yeah video games all day because I can't express myself. LOLZ. Whatever when I head to Japan it will be good for my socio/psychology reports on Japan. HAHAHAHAHA pretty cool.

I wish that was me, he became famous... XD

I was just happy that the announcer is actually fluent in english. lol. anyway, Japan is in a brink of destruction.

Now I have a question....does he fail so much he can't get a girl...or is he afraid of 3d women....or is it just the nerd in him that goes 2d IS GOD FUCK 3D WOOT 1337!!!!!

"Can you love a machine?"

I expected better questions from a CNN reporter... FAIL!

Huaaa...ha..ha..ha.. (for worldwide International)
Wkk...wk..wk..wk.. (for Indonesian lokal only)

Thought to self - Seriously, does CNN only have the one reporter? I've heard this woman in every article they've done on Japan.

is not a machin , is caracter ,and this kanojo game is very good , is totaly normal.

let's follow him

What happens when his wife cheats on him with all the other hundreds or thousands of players out there?

I was wondering if there are games like that for us girls. I search and search and I still can't find one .. TT.TT
Do you know any?

For this post: well marrying some one may be a little extreme I mean ... playing non stop it's okay .. because it should mean that you don't have anything to do in life, but still today we see so many guys and girls like that .. but marrying .. ^^' .. well I guess if he is happy than who cares! It's his life! No mine ..

oohh the ceremony was aired live on nico?

Wonder if Equality Now will try and use this in another one of their crusades.

Wait, so gay people can't marry in Japan but a guy can marry his DS?? O_O WTF?

The guy has found happiness in a chaotic and often unfair world. Good for him!

I'd be pulling that face as well.

"Thank god I'm not related to him."

i think he's kinda cute ... :3

well if CNN was trying to show to people that never do such crazy things, they were doing it wrong and were actually making those more-Western guys try it...

As much as I am a supporter for all kinds of the legalization for all victimless crimes, I do not support 2d marriage. Seriously speaking, marriage is partly about consent. You shouldn't be able to marry someone without them giving you their consent. Even if the character says "yes", she was under the influence of something (he programmer's instructions). On top of that, she is digital information and copyable, so there can be a ton of the same fictional character that many other people have as a "lover", so it's all a total mess.
But I can totally understand this guy loving this fictional girl.

The image of Japan is pretty distorted! I hate Sankaku and foreigner medias reporting rare cases like common in Japan. This guy is fuc*in stupid even on the Japanese standard.
Japan what reported by sankaku is like a perverts' heaven and all japanese are smelly otaku and Tokyo streets are filled with Ninja and girls who have bigger eyeballs than their mouthes

i'm playing this game atm, i'm making every effort to avoid nene :P

i'm aiming for Rinko, much more my type :P

Yeah its eccentric stuff liike this that will probably make him a celebrity.

Anybody remember Tila Tequila? Some nobody on myspace or whatever posting hot photos. Now she's a celebreity with reality shows.

Whatch this happen to old dude.

Somewhat unrelated question here. Why is it that every article about Love Plus, be it marriages or broken real marriages, seem to involve this "Nene" character? The other two look much more appealing. Or is it some sort of "personality" trait?

It was also mentioned on an early morning ESPN radion show briefly a couple of days ago, lol.

So now as 'her husband' is he going to sue every one else to quit 'playing' her since he claimed her?

typical american media,

give a mentally ill retard air time, haven't the americans got anything better to broadcast?

Three words, in form of a question.

Slow News Day? >_>;

Her expression.

"I'm in despair. Nene looks a billion times better than me. I'm in despair."

There's a reason Japanese women are looking for American guys.

The "wedding" appeared on Keith Olbermann's Oddball on Thursday. Also included, a guy jumping rooftops in Cambridge, Mass. and no it's not Santa and water main bursts in Baltimore:

I lol'd

This is getting old. So he married a 2D character, big deal. At least he's not injuring or swindling society. It's not as bizarre as getting married to dead spirits, or as barbaric as setting a widow on fire after her husband has died. The media should leave the guy alone and let him have his privacy.

Fuck that, they pretend all this freedom of expression bullcrap and whenever someone does something that's different from other people, they ridiculize that person and try to force their own ideals of "normalcy" into his or her head against his or her will. I presented this thing about society in my research paper back in the days and teacher looked at me and said that I carried the same thoughts as Hitler, WTF? Seriously, if Hitler thought that the world is corrupted with butting-in-others-business fags like that bitch of a reporter and want to erase such annoyance, then I guess I will follow his lead too.
