Comment on Winter 2011 Anime “Least Original Ever” “Just Rehashes” by Anonymous:
I think you’re the only one who imagines that otaku childhood means anime and gunpla, that’s relatively rich nerd childhood. I and probably others understand otaku childhood as series of events that turn one into a shutin, something that I’ve just recently started to get over thanks to my love for cars and actually driving one which forces me to interact with people on the road, in gas stations, various stores and so on. I have even befriended two of my neighbors. And despite all that I have started watching and liking even more anime than before (I only discovered the fun in Initial D and Wangan Midnight around the time I started learning to drive) and my fear and distrust for people I don’t know has decreased only a little and probably thanks to the fact that I’m now a bit more self confident and armed with pepper spray (more effective deterrents are illegal here).
Dang, wanted to refute you but ended up talking about myself, anyhow, otaku childhood is nothing nice and I still haven’t fully gotten over it, and probably even if i ever do I’ll keep on watching anime.
Once an otaku, always one.

Except this is the premise for all comics and stories pretty much anywhere…bar perhaps the strange plethora of fetishisms that manga will extend. Even so-called classics in Books and Western Literature will inevitably fall into the three categories seeing how basic they are (try to tell me what Crime and Punishment, Beloved, Shakespeare, Wuthering Heights, Invisible Man are about without using any of these three). That doesn’t mean you won’t find some insightful manga plots or characters …

No way would it go unnoticed. It’s realistic, and nothing like other anime in its genre. Not even the crappy anime version can harm it’s meaning.

There are plenty of fujoshi into 3D guys.

But like, these are women who look fine with make-up on. That’s the trait that leads them to wear make-up. That’s what it’s for, ffs. Some dudes don’t actually give a fuck.
- Japanese Makeup Terrifying as Ever…:
I knew there was too big a difference between japanese men and women. Seriously, I feel like all the men are unsightly and the women aren’t bad at all. Kinda disappointed to know its all a facade. I mean, that’s the case for most of the world’s women but the cases shown here are pretty…unbelievable.

Girls, but there’s quite a portion of the cast with those extra appendages, and it’s not a given he’d automatically be into interspecies.
- Haganai Movie: “They Aren’t Even Trying!”:
Maybe it’s an AV then wouldn’t the casting be alright? I mean usually they are pretty close but still off.
