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 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.
Oh crap. Today is Valentine. Totally forgot. :l
Shit i hope you did the Love Plus+ Event Oo
oh crap, i miss the event..
I take so many arrows in the knee in Valentine day.
i just played MW3 and LOL all day..
I missed it 'cause of my bad touch screen >:(
Damn it! My NDS is broken!
think of it as the day when UEFA champions league starts.
Valentine's Day in America = Christmas Day in Japan.
The perfect day to do sexings with your girlfriend or waifu.
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 :D
happy birthday :)
lets eat just the head in pic 9!
Only Madoka? There were better pictures.
THAT GIF! I JUST DIED OF MOE!!
Dat DOZO.
Homuhomu just passed out from moe...
Then this must be the oft-spoken thread necromancy.
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.
That cake has boobs !
Boob-cake -- it's my favorite. Tastes milky.
Taste the rainbow!
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...
Thank you very much sancom for this news.
*BRB I'm gonna give Sanya her belated Valentine's gift*
would be nice to see a translation of pic #8
I'd like to know how that's done o__O
Happy Singles Awareness Day!
yes, we're all the same.
all hail dem waifus
I wouldn't even think of giving the Japanese otaku a pistol, much less that loaded AR-15 sitting back there.
i would eat mami up...
once you become otaku, you will never go back
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.
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
It's more comedic than creepy, but we can do better!
I'm liking that soul gem necklace... time to google it.
sad sad world
Im lovin the gun mOre than homu
We Are Not Alone!!!
My image was never put in the that collage... maybe next time
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
There's a floating box of chocolates in the hall of infamy collage, directly to the right of Beatrice who's right under Ritsu.
Poor choice of vodka.
I'm glad I didn't post my waifu photos anywhere :V
-A.Shameful
That's art!
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.
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...
...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 :P
