The otaku denizens of 2ch’s VIP board share photographs of their rooms of late, with rooms ranging from stylish to utterly obsessive on display, with harems to match…
=A= This is why Japanese women are so turned off by otaku. But the later rooms are nice, seeing as it isn't so obsessive. But the massive damakimakura collection is just....wow.
I love the room with the checkboard floor, the one with a staircase right over the bed(?) and the one where he manages to fortify his bed with a lap top and PS3. ... Hmm time to rearrange my room.
Though the bottom line is that despite media coverage (or lack thereof), the obsessive fanboys/fangirls are actually pretty damn well-off financially. Whether it is from actual self-earnings or leeching off parents is another question.
If i had to sleep in that 1st guy's room (1st set of pics)... i think i'd shivver and cry myself to sleep... even i have a limit... but seriously i wanna kno where they get this stuff and what they do for a living, it's amazing...
Man, so many of those look cluttered to all hell. I'd like to have a fair amount of anime goods around, but I certainly wouldn't want them to completely dominate every aspect of it, as in the first images.
Makes me wish I had the money to decorate as I want.
I'm 26 and i began to buy otaku stuff just recently.
Those rooms filled with cute 2D girls are awesome, i hope i can save money enough to buy half of the things they do.
Friends? Guests? What is that?
If i have to invite anyone i'll just lock my room.
That reminds me of our local racing community

I only eat one meal a day average, no girlfriend, and I still don't feel I have the money for a room like #1. Yet again, it must be the fact I hate charging on credit and don't carry a lot of cash on me.
I also have 2 flats. But one is my fathers old one I got years ago and the second one came from a hospital where I worked, I took the screen from the trash (pssstt, they had a pile just for computers)
The condensators were bloated, cahnged them and that shit worked again.
Both screens are only like 16" so Im really looking forward to buy two of those goddamn huge motherfuckers.
Nice
But i think some of the rooms there belong to non-otaku..well i've seen such similar rooms before, and the owners are just someone who seems to like anime and games but can't be called otaku since they don't just fit into the type...IMHO
As a female otaku, I have to really say that the first couple rooms are...interesting. It's not the content and images that disturb me (hell, I have a few Oppai things sitting around), but it's the sheer amount of stuff that they have. I'd be afraid I'd step on something that they would deem worth more than my life. Most are pretty okay though...some are pretty nice. I'm impressed.
I don't think most of the later rooms deserve to be called an otaku room (although they are awesome) but the first room really "wowed" me and I already have a "posters,figures" filled otaku room of my own
014 is friggin sick.. i wanna do that >:D ever since i saw south park when stan look behind him and reverse XD.... other than that, i like those tidy rooms :D
I need to get me a house with two bedrooms. The one I'll actually sleep in regularly would be decorated like the 1st guy's room. I'll keep that room locked at all times when it isn't in use and have a second "pretend" bedroom for when I have visitors, especially if those visitors are girls :P
Yeah I want also want to thow into the sentiment that these rooms are entirely attainable. Seriously, some of you saying that they are "expensive" probably have their priorities set somewhere else, like stupid-expensive cars and retarded-expensive vacations. I am like these otaku, my primary investment is my entertainment setup/study area. When your lifestyle revolves around this stuff, when your lifestyle is a digital entertainment lifestyle, then these rooms actually appear pretty cheap...
Dude with the racing setup is awesome. Hell, most of those rooms were awesome. If I could live the high life like a few otaku then I'd definitely would.
Here is my hypothesis on the issue:
- Money draws power.
- Power draws the bearer to the top of the food chain.
- The top is lonely.
- Rich are ronery.
- Ronery are otaku.
This is applied for the 'better' design you see in the upper pictures; other examples try to be an otaku first and crawl later, as seen in the 'lesser' pictures in this gallery, and the later VIP room galleries.
Damn im gonna save up and get a Rolex there so nice and all those rooms are nice bar the first one that was really obsessive but ok the rest were really nice though.
To me, these rooms are...
If you're a teenager: Epic, dude... that room is awesome.
to mid 20s: It'll be like kryptonite to girls, but hey, I think it's pretty cool...
late 20s/early 30s: Seriously dude, if you made it a normal room you could keep that stuff and more on your computer... for free. There's no need to force social incompatibility like that... the only people you could have in there are like-minded obsessive male otaku.
I'm just being honest - I'm more in the 3rd category with fairly low-key decoration, but some gaming, and some anime posters, and a few figures, but at least I know where it puts me.
So true. Manga, anime DVDs, tech stuff, gunpla = awesome, the rest are just overkill. And why bother buying all that dolls and pillows? I rather spend all that money to travel around the world or buy more books and dvds.
Should consider the access of such goods too. No doubt a lot of them are in either Tokyo, Osaka, or some other major city that has the shops that carry that stuff. Anywhere else and it becomes less and less obsessive. Sure there is the Internet, but shipping costs extra.
But yea... if you don't have to spend money on such things you mention, it's an amazing thing how much money becomes available.
Getting layed has nothing to do with obsession.
But for a person who finds comfort in looking down on others, I get the feeling that you aren't very popular with the opposite sex yourself.
The sad truth is that jerks get laid, often. The truth is also that the only sex that will ever happen in the room from the first pic is of the solo kind.
Honestly, the first room IS sad, because the person it belongs to is so far gone that he most likely never will be close to another real human being in the next few years at least. It's all fun spouting internet jokes about 2d being superior to 3d and so on, but in truth, being lonely sucks, A LOT.
VIP indeed, most of these are nice, plain and stylish. The fact that there are 20 photos of the same room with all the dakimakura makes the whole set seem worse.
Clearly you've never been to the Blizzard forums... or any gaming site where they talk about it.
People bitch about the price and about the fact... More
Otakus are so god damn rich! Wonder where they get all of their money from >_>
picture 1-17, otaku in this room possibly masturbate evryday...
I'd love to pillage some of those places...
=A= This is why Japanese women are so turned off by otaku. But the later rooms are nice, seeing as it isn't so obsessive. But the massive damakimakura collection is just....wow.
All of their rooms are good, I wish I had the Logitech G25 setup. All I have is a crappy Logitech Driving Force Pro... well it's OK I guess...
+1 G25+3xLCD=win
I love the room with the checkboard floor, the one with a staircase right over the bed(?) and the one where he manages to fortify his bed with a lap top and PS3. ... Hmm time to rearrange my room.
#24, solid choice of mouse
I'm getting mixed messages here.
Though the bottom line is that despite media coverage (or lack thereof), the obsessive fanboys/fangirls are actually pretty damn well-off financially. Whether it is from actual self-earnings or leeching off parents is another question.
first pics were fucking creepy
wow the first room was awesome! Otakus sure are rich
I shat bricks
a part of me died when i realized that i was jealous of them...fml
damn, i need a bed chair now. fuck regular chairs
fuck yes kamen rider/
If i had to sleep in that 1st guy's room (1st set of pics)... i think i'd shivver and cry myself to sleep... even i have a limit... but seriously i wanna kno where they get this stuff and what they do for a living, it's amazing...
Screw the Normfags, I really wished my room is like this..
Wow these room...
amazing in some way
hmm well organized rooms, dont really fit the traditional otaku image, it's a new era!
except if they used their parents' money... I would say that they're my heroes
wtf do most of these people do!? thats ridiculous.
Man, so many of those look cluttered to all hell. I'd like to have a fair amount of anime goods around, but I certainly wouldn't want them to completely dominate every aspect of it, as in the first images.

Yes, no crosses or altars in those rooms!
I'll create one for you

I wonder how difficult it'd be to make a shower curtain out of those....
Pics of Rooms 53,58,59,67 are the best they are awesome.
The first ones are so repulsive
Two of the rooms I would totally like to have!!*love*

Though they wouldn't look so messy^^U
I only eat one meal a day average, no girlfriend, and I still don't feel I have the money for a room like #1. Yet again, it must be the fact I hate charging on credit and don't carry a lot of cash on me.
holy crap these otakus are either rich, have very low rent or they save up for long periods of time cuse these rooms look like a mini store
Sorry, I'm claustrophobic. Those rooms are not my type. -.-
Any girl who would walk into an otaku's room would say, "are you gonna rape me?"
And the response would be "EWW NO, 3D!"
Lol at this.
Pic 41,
I also have 2 flats. But one is my fathers old one I got years ago and the second one came from a hospital where I worked, I took the screen from the trash (pssstt, they had a pile just for computers)

What kind of unique hell is this.
68 and 67's TV seems to be playing an episode of "Real Clothes".
I giggled when I saw the tissue boxes.

008 has a Reimu yukkuri in! Awesome!
Bookshelves of love.
OF LOVE.
man if someone were to open an anime goods store/franchise in the US thed be a near instant millionare if he/she sold thier merch at the right price
otaku are rich
i bet that dakimura-loving-guy will fap everyday....
and i bet those rooms smells like cum....
wahahaha....
Some really nice collections there. Also some very tame rooms, which is to be expected. I should get an oppai mouse pad one of these days.
I spot a yukkuri! I have that same yukkuri sitting on my bed.
I'm a furry and what is this?
I think if I lived in that first room I'd never be able to stop fapping.
Heaven in one room
These guys are awesome!
51 looks like a normal room till i look closer
I don't think most of the later rooms deserve to be called an otaku room (although they are awesome) but the first room really "wowed" me and I already have a "posters,figures" filled otaku room of my own
I am so disturbed. I thought I was kinda mild, but I beat many of these people hands down. (Except for the racing setup and the makura heaven.)
014 is friggin sick.. i wanna do that >:D ever since i saw south park when stan look behind him and reverse XD.... other than that, i like those tidy rooms :D
woah nice mio pic or blanket?
I need to get me a house with two bedrooms. The one I'll actually sleep in regularly would be decorated like the 1st guy's room. I'll keep that room locked at all times when it isn't in use and have a second "pretend" bedroom for when I have visitors, especially if those visitors are girls :P
besides all the cluttering anime merchandise crap they have awesome rooms

his family must ran factories that made electronic and other otaku stuffs
this pictures are just trap
I like the rooms where the manga is alot but is very neatly placed, I also like the ones tht have posters up on the wall
How the fuck can these people afford these things?
My room is worse than all of the latter ones.
Isn't it great to have so much spending money when you don't have a girlfriend?
I'd love to have the desk in 41...
ok the top set of pictures was obsessive but the bottom ones with less anime stuff is the type of room i want

Lol, Pic 20, That guy's Hentai Collection is huge, if they're 80$ a piece, where does all the money come from?
This is why you live in Japan
To me, these rooms are...
If you're a teenager: Epic, dude... that room is awesome.
to mid 20s: It'll be like kryptonite to girls, but hey, I think it's pretty cool...
late 20s/early 30s: Seriously dude, if you made it a normal room you could keep that stuff and more on your computer... for free. There's no need to force social incompatibility like that... the only people you could have in there are like-minded obsessive male otaku.
I'm just being honest - I'm more in the 3rd category with fairly low-key decoration, but some gaming, and some anime posters, and a few figures, but at least I know where it puts me.
So true. Manga, anime DVDs, tech stuff, gunpla = awesome, the rest are just overkill. And why bother buying all that dolls and pillows? I rather spend all that money to travel around the world or buy more books and dvds.
But have you ever seen one of these nice pvc figures from close! I would buy 100 of them but can't they are so fucking expensive.
I'm jealous. >.>
Good God... most of these setups are just UGLY. O_o
No redeeming qualities whatsoever, messy, cheap furniture etc.
it starts with one poster...
And then one figure...
And then the dakimakura...
It's fun looking at these photos ^^
Most otaku aren't rich, they just have no girlfriends, children or family to fund for.
Should consider the access of such goods too. No doubt a lot of them are in either Tokyo, Osaka, or some other major city that has the shops that carry that stuff. Anywhere else and it becomes less and less obsessive. Sure there is the Internet, but shipping costs extra.
But yea... if you don't have to spend money on such things you mention, it's an amazing thing how much money becomes available.
*cry* it's beautiful...........
thats a hell of a lot of dakimakuras
For some reason people think that "oh he's a otaku" equals "oh he has no job."
Yeah, its more like "he has no girlfriend".
Why don't we Sankakuan try to do this?
We do,why don't you check out the forum
everybody who doesn't find that the saddest thing in the world is not in his right mind.
it's just sad, some of them are actually normal and stylish but most of them are just down right pathetic.
and they wonder why they can't get laid, morons.
Yea better leave, or go to 4chan have some hardening training.
Getting layed has nothing to do with obsession.
But for a person who finds comfort in looking down on others, I get the feeling that you aren't very popular with the opposite sex yourself.
The sad truth is that jerks get laid, often. The truth is also that the only sex that will ever happen in the room from the first pic is of the solo kind.

Why do they have to be lonely?
I'd befriend room nr. 1's owner in a heartbeat! :D
2D being superior to 3D pig disgusting a joke?
Haha, oh man, alright, whatever helps you sleep.
Get out Anon, you don't belong on this site!
VIP indeed, most of these are nice, plain and stylish. The fact that there are 20 photos of the same room with all the dakimakura makes the whole set seem worse.
i love these pillows and mouse pads <3
