MSNBC - awesome article about 'otaku' culture in the US.

interesting article, don't really like MSNBC anyways, i just think of this as more publicity, let people know we exist here in the USA, despite how much of the article could be taken at face value and make people fear,despise otaku's more, but this is only my own opinion/thoughts.

I agree with you wholeheartedly.

wow interesting....... although I wouldn NEVER give up on real women for figurines...... "they don't talk back"........ thats just some stupid shit...... thats what humans need... someone to talk to, and it would be just plain weird talking to a figurine..... plus sex...... oh man the sex...... don't get me started on the sex...... fapping can be good, but it pails in comparison to real sex.....

...........well that's just my point of view............ everyone can do whatever they want........

90 % pure stupidity.

"But sexually-suggestive and explicit anime like "Gurren Lagann" and "Legend of the Overfiend,"is finding an eager audience of adult Americans who are drawn to the post-modern, almost post-human mash-up of playful, blurry morality found in the genre."


Yeah.... is it just me or is that like comparing Heroes to Debbie does Dallas?

Agreed.

Anywho I should try going to the maid cafe in LA. Long drive though.. too hot as well.

Look at the rating of that article! Why is that they started the subject of the matter with such perverted and sexually things about Otaku culture? T_T
