The below chart is taken from a TV program which conducted a survey of commoner females, in order to discover which types of otaku paraphernalia they found most objectionable when visiting a man’s room; as you can see, any figure fans seem set to enjoy a lifetime of celibacy…
The number of surveyed ladies who indicated they would be put off by the presence of the goods is indicated below:
Any figure is NG: 4
Star Wars: 8
Lupin III: 22
Gundam: 47
Eva: 91
Animal characters: 92
Bishoujo characters: 100
“Animal characters” apparently refers to nekomimi and similar…
Moe figure fans had better be prepared to remove their collections from view if they ever hope to make a favourable impression on a commoner female, though in more extreme cases this is likely impossible.
Of course, the level of interest displayed in such figures probably corresponds inversely to the probability of a lady visiting the room in question, so perhaps it is not such a big issue?
See also the most loathed clothing fetishes and the most haeted otaku types for more evidence that otaku proclivities cannot be hereditary…
Nekomimi? But they look so cute, maybe they’re just jelous!
No because women Have brains and they know right from wrong
This girl has a weakness for moe and “animal” figures. 🙂 The main ones I collect are maids, and nekomimi. OMG, how I love them…
Of course, I also have a weakness for watching wonderful yuri, so maybe that helps?
Hmn, wierd since 99,9% of all woman I know that love anime (me included) prefer collecting those kinds of figures.
I don’t like RL women anyway… they’ll never understand the male anime otaku.
You are lost my friends
