Otaku means vergin??? I find that hard to believe. Well of course hentai meaning pervert, yes. But really? I kinda doubt that what it really means otherwise anime otakus like us wont be calling ourselves like that.

It refers to anyone who is an excessive fan (fanatic) of anything to the point that it interferes with in a negative way with their life. military otaku, gun otaku (yes different from military) car/bike otaku, sports otaku, etc. Other countries, most noticeably the US, has taken a negative word of shame from Japanese and use it in a positive way that has gained general acceptance and is used very successfully in marketing. I did my psych thesis on Fanaticism and the effects of culture on social acceptance. Even Spain has a National Geek Pride Day.

SuperDry in Japanese spelled the same way as it is in Asahi Superdry.

At least it makes sense. However, their stuff is really expensive!!

One means "huge root" and the other "huge dick". They look like the same kanji though.

That's what irony is, Japan. But i think I would really like to get someone of those Engrish shirts. Sometimes It has the most vulgar and nonsensical stuff. Only in other countries can you get a girl to wear a shirt like that.

1. I hate trends, any trends.
2. all my clothing is monocoloured plain with nothing at all on them. I like them that way.

'Trendy' is a weakness and demonstrates a lack of confidence in your own originality.
