Even the creepy otaku of 2ch have been speaking admiringly of the love their overseas counterparts have been lavishing on their fictional Valentines, particularly those of a mahou shoujo persuasion.
Western otaku have been emulating their Japanese namesakes by enjoying a romantic evening with their 2D girlfriends:
Japanese otaku are suitably impressed at this display:
“Even overseas there are people like us…”
“They’re doing it overseas as well? They seem a bit more stylish about it than us…”
“The overseas lot are hot too, aren’t they?”
“Their passion really comes across.”
“Nice. I’m a bit jealous of the fact they get to have real guns though!”
“I laughed at the homuhomu pistol…”
“It’s nice to see all this overseas love for them.”
“Quite an adult atmosphere over there.”
“Drinking with Madocchi!”
“Don’t make Madocchi drink booze! She’s a minor!”
The main highlights from the Japanese side also show a great deal of interest in magical puellae:
The hall of infamy:
Im lovin the gun mOre than homu
The Madoka & Homura bit was cute.
Japan ought to learn the influences it has on the outside world in the 21th century. Manga and Anime is now international, so if this stuff occurs in Japan, i wouldn’t be too surprised to see them…in America
We Are Not Alone!!!
My image was never put in the that collage… maybe next time
There’s a floating box of chocolates in the hall of infamy collage, directly to the right of Beatrice who’s right under Ritsu.
some of these are pretty damn funny
Surprised to see LovePlus pic in the hall of infamy.
I don’t think it’s creepy, but it’s artistic.
That’s art!
FOREVER ALONEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My wallpaper is an angry Ogasawara Sachiko. It wouldn’t work.
For some reason, pic #1 seems reminiscent of almost every apartment I’ve ever been in…lighting…liquor…computer…
The gun thing is actually pretty damn funny and creative.
I really do wonder if it’s supposed to be funny rather then the usual “creepy otaku love” side of things though.
I’m gonna say funny, looks like somethign i would do to get a few laughs outta my friends.
HOLY SHIT, MY IMAGE IS UP THERE IN THE HALL OF INFAMY.
forth from the left, top row.
Don’t know if i should be proud or just start crying out of shame.
An offering of alcohol: LOL
Offering Homuhomu a gun: Well, she’s always looking for weaponry
Offering Mami macaroons: ROFL, now that’s just wrong.
Those retards from /a/. They’ll never grow up.
We still have a ways to go before we can reach their powerlevel.
The Sayaka cake guy is likely a professional, but I just can’t discount the possibility that otaku does it as a hobby.
would be nice to see a translation of pic #8
I’d like to know how that’s done o__O
I’m glad I didn’t post my waifu photos anywhere :V
-A.Shameful
THAT GIF IMAGE!!!
sad sad world
It’s more comedic than creepy, but we can do better!
I’m liking that soul gem necklace… time to google it.
once you become otaku, you will never go back
Poor choice of vodka.
Homura is the poster girl of /k/ and I approve of the 2nd picture…
too bad she could only be given a BR gun and not her standard DEAGLE brand DEAGLE
…I don’t know where I should stand on this.
Should I feel depressed that we’re doing the same shit as the 2channers for being ronery or the fact that we are even doing this in the first place…
I understand if it’s for lulz, but it wouldn’t surprise me if they were being serious as some Japanese are.
I would do it, it looks awesome, like making a drawing of your favourite girl or a cake, just something creative. For the lulz 😛
I thought I was the only one who that that…
Horey for the loneliness reminder day!
I dunno some of these pictures look like they be trolling. Anyways, I sorta blew off valentines day all together. A 27 year old man really shouldn’t be getting excited about this holiday. (Is trying to reason with himself)
No one else noticed the Madoka domination?
Surprising amount of Perrine in the collage. I approve~
Ronery guys getting drunk…
And in that composite photo, I see some guy’s “Valentine” is Batman.
Mami Cake yumm.
I am so going to eat her head if I have the chance…
CHOMP!CHOMP!
yes, we’re all the same.
all hail dem waifus
That cake has boobs !
Boob-cake — it’s my favorite. Tastes milky.
Taste the rainbow!
lets eat just the head in pic 9!
I swear, a few rotten apples.
LOL! @ “Lot’s of spaghetti” on the hall of infamy (fourth from the bottom, second from the right). Other ones I found amusing were Miharu with a banana (bottom row, fourth from the left) and Roll with motor oil (first column, 7th from the top).
Today for Valentines, at 10:55PM, the power went out in my city… 5 minutes later I got 3 phone calls from girls asking me to take them out for food. So I picked the one I liked, we ate, got back to her place, and since she was single on Valentines I made my move.
America, Fuck Yeah.
I will give you credit for your avatar pic, since it’s from the animated Two-Mix White Reflection PV, which is absolutely great and way too few people nowadays know about it.
And then you woke up and realize you’re just holding yourself.
Ohh, that must be our suburb otaku. Suburb Otaku got all kinds of guns and fireworks…
Nothing like City Otaku, unless you’re Ghetto Otaku or Trailer Park Otaku, that don’t speak well.
You know who you are…
Only Madoka’s characters? Gosh, there are better and cuter 2D out there!
Thank you very much sancom for this news.
*BRB I’m gonna give Sanya her belated Valentine’s gift*
Sad that I didn’t manage to complete the Ikeda Chitose Valentine’s Day shrine I planned initially…
In the end I did nothing except drawing a picture of chocolate Yukari..
Sorry – but that’s WAY too much effort.
“The overseas lot are hot too, aren’t they?”
Umm… what?
I think they mean hot as in hot blooded/passion.
anyone bored enough to get me the wallpaper 4/4 from top right ?
not giving anyone anything, not wasting money on anyone today, couldnt wish for something better for feb14
I believe they are only doing it for the publicity/stunt on w/e forum they posted the images on, not that they are actually “Creepy” or even “single”
So… which ones your room? XD
I’m the only picture of Mugi on the collage.
Mumi why
i would eat mami up…
Oh crap. Today is Valentine. Totally forgot. :l
think of it as the day when UEFA champions league starts.
Shit i hope you did the Love Plus+ Event Oo
oh crap, i miss the event..
I missed it ’cause of my bad touch screen >:(
I take so many arrows in the knee in Valentine day.
Damn it! My NDS is broken!
i just played MW3 and LOL all day..
What the fuck. Today is february 15th, totally forgot yesterday was valentine. I guess i need to go out more often.
Its also my birthday 😀
happy birthday 🙂
Valentine’s Day in America = Christmas Day in Japan.
The perfect day to do sexings with your girlfriend or waifu.
woah anyone see gutsu has someone whom is celebrating valetines day with him!!
Sad that the Hanako with GTX 570 pic didn’t get posted.
The only thing I don’t approve of in these photos is ABSOLUT vodka.
ABSOLUTLY FUCKING AWFUL VODKA. Paint thinner in a fancy bottle with a multi million dollar advertising campaign. I won’t even use it as a mixer.
Fuck you Sweden.
Uh… Love you too?
The three girls from Love Plus gave me chocolate, so I’m happy. :>
THAT GIF! I JUST DIED OF MOE!!
Homuhomu just passed out from moe…
Dat DOZO.
Then this must be the oft-spoken thread necromancy.
Happy Singles Awareness Day!
I suppose a general 2/14 ronery article doesn’t stand as well alone as with a theme?
Anyway, whether it’s overseas or not there’s bound to be a few impressive exceptions.
I wouldn’t even think of giving the Japanese otaku a pistol, much less that loaded AR-15 sitting back there.
Together alone. Always and forever.
Sigh, I facepalmed at the gallery… Though the dedication is quite… Impressive
Artefact took our compilation from /a/ without even properly crediting us. My image contribution is there as well.
I feel violated.
it all starts with a sense of entitlement…
You’re not very well informed about the internet; it’s one big repost. Lurk moar.
It was reposted on 2ch without attribution, so I’m afraid I had no idea as to its provenance.
If you didn’t enjoy being violated, then I hereby credit you!
You should come to #madoka on Rizon, most of the people who took these photos are there.
I notice now that “4chan” is included as one of the article tags. That is fair, I guess.
Wow Madoka is really popular over here O_o
I already gave Haruhi some chocos :3
“Quite an adult atmosphere over there.”
cuz of the gun? lol..
saw Celty.. now the beheaded girls r the deal? 😮
Only Madoka? There were better pictures.
Valentine’s Day here in the States: Where most of us ronery bastards just get stinking drunk and play with our guns… fantasizing about who we’d go Columbine on first, the ex at the top of the list.
Forever alone
Sigh. You give your loved one gifts to make them happy or feel loved.
THE IMAGE OF A GIRL WITH EYES THAT COVER HER FACE CAN NOT FEEL LOVE.
I don’t know, it seems 3D girls don’t seem to respond to love either.
At least with 2D I know she won’t hurt me.
Lol pathetic otakus.
forever alone level: otaku
better alone than raped.
Not in Japan!
😀
weird but not quite creepy yet….
oh i’m sure we’ve just begun.
Time is all we need 😀
HOW DARE THEY MANIPULATE LS INTO THAT SHITTY MADUKA SHIT!!!! FUCK YOU!!!
Madoka is shit.
Hm? What’s that?… yeah, Madoka’s awesome.
yay veteran’s day
to be honest, I don’t see any problem here, the world population is reaching 7 billions, imagine all of those people reproduce.
it’s amazing to see society look down on them just because they are alone spending that day with an anime character, what’s wrong with that? no expensive gift, dinner for two, and unsanitary body fluid contact after that.
The society you’re referring to doesn’t happen to be world-wide, but rather exist in Japan. As you may have heard the birth rates are on the decline there and the nation is facing dark times with a large elderly population and not enough young people to take care of them. The trend of getting married and having children once you’re older isn’t helping any, neither are the people who shut themselves inside their homes at valentine’s day and eat cake with a pretty picture or a pillow cover.
Not my personal opinion, just a fact.
Germany and Russia have the same birthrate, recently Spain and Italy too. There are obvious reasons nobody want to talk about because “feminists watch you lol”, but i don’t think otakus are one of these reasons. Japan will not be the only one to face dark times.
