I am an otaku and trust me we don't act like that.

My only obsessive fandom is with this webcomic. 

Maybe a few others, too. 

But it ain't otaku level, that's for sure!

I hang out with Otaku.  Can't say that I am one, though.  Even though I enjoy anime I tend to only watch it in anime club.  If you give me a series to watch on my own, have fun waiting for me to finish.  We dropped Code Geass from our line up a year ago and I've been 8 episodes from finishing since August....

Speaking of kings...

I stopped taking Code Geass particularly seriously after the "chess game" between Lelouch and Schneizel. Having been a tournament player in my youth, that was absolutely ridiculous to me. (Same with the exchange over moving the king first in that chess scene during the premiere episode, but I excused it as it was silly but LEGAL)

You took something serious with a character named Schneizel?
Title: Re: Otaku
Post by: Theriandros on 09 Nov 2009, 19:29

Schneizel is a legitimately Germanic-sounding name, which could reference the German houses of Hanover and Saxe-Coburg-Gotha, who supplied quite a number of British rulers.

Title: Re: Otaku
Post by: Theriandros on 10 Nov 2009, 09:16
*cough*

Like I said, Germanic sounding, but admittedly not actually German. The writer(s?) took liberties with the Brittanian names (For simplicity, I'm taking the dub names). There's Germanic names (Bismarck Waldstein, Jeremiah Gottwald, Diethard Ried), French (some phonetic) names (Lelouch and Rolo Lamperouge, Prince Clovis), Greek-origin names (Euphemia, Odysseus), possibly Russian names (Anya Alstreim, and Monica Krushevsky in the original, dubbed to the Polish Kruszewski). Hell, there's as many non-English names as there are English names.

I do find a Brittanian prince named Clovis to be pretty bad, though, especially in a timeline where the French took over the English homeland.

To be honest, I can't really remember Heavyoak.

I've had it for close to three to four years now.  Not entirely sure, but I think a friend sent it to me via MSN once.

I've a feeling I am not otaku simply because I was exposed to Animé and the like too late for it to bind me. That plus I look really silly with long white hair, and the ears wouldn't stay in place.

No, I really don't think I need suggestions on how to remedy that last problem.
Title: Re: Otaku

Anime didn't bind me, either. 

At least, not enough that a good salad didn't help.

Oh, come on. Give me a little credit. The problem with the band as that it works best going under the chin, where it looks and I asked, didn't I ask, that no one encourage this?

Sigh

Besides, even if I work that out, there's the eyebrows.

I think sports fanatics are still called 'nuts.' So you're a hockey nut.

Anyone here remember Archie Campbell's "Hockey Here Tonight" routine? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DdeKBE3AaiA

so who here is one?

I am an otaku and trust me we don't act like that.

being called an otaku already means the person is fucked up.. so yea, they do act like that. and if you dont, then you arent an otaku. you're just a fan of anime.

The really tragic thing about otaku is that actual japanse people hate them.

On the other hand, Ged had an otak as a familiar, so that's kind of cool.

how does this picture make you feel:

I suspect "that doesn't look like her at all, the art style is all wrong" isn't really a better reaction than the one you were going for.

When discussing the topic of "otaku," there are several facets of this subculture that can be examined.

The obsession with two-dimensional fictional characters. The inability to relate to other people, particularly

 the opposite sex. The cruel ironic joke that is moe, eliciting the desire to protect and provide from the people

least capable of even taking care of themselves, a poisoned fang that keeps them from forming real personal

 relationships and distances themselves from reality, sucked further into the cynical economic machine that

 preys on unpopular men.

Ya know, Heavyoak, yelling "NO U" at every description of otaku that comes up isn't a very convincing way to persuade people that you aren't one...

So really,

YES, YOU!!

Three pages, wow! :-o

And the beat goes on,
The beat goes on...

here come the drums, here come the drums!

So here it comes, the sound of drums!
(Here come the drums, here come the drums)

Baby, baby, baby
You are my voodoo child, my voodoo child
Don't say maybe maybe
It's supernatural, I'm comin' undone

Baby, baby, baby
You are my voodoo child, my voodoo child
Don't say maybe maybe
It's supernatural, I'm comin' undone



Baby, baby, baby
You are my voodoo child, my voodoo child

You're like voodoo baby
You just take hold
Put your cards on the table baby
Do I twist, Do I fold?

You're like voodoo honey
All silver and gold
Why don't you tell me my future?
Why don't I sell you my soul?
So here it comes, the sound of drums
(Here come the drums, here come the drums)

[Chorus:]
Baby, baby, baby
You are my voodoo child, my voodoo child
Don't say maybe maybe
It's supernatural, I'm comin' undone

[Chorus]

You're like voodoo baby
Your kisses are cold
Feel your poison running through me
Let me never grow old

You're like voodoo honey
My pictures you stole
You play me like a puppet
Sticking pins in a doll
So here it comes, the sound of drums
(Here come the drums, here come the drums)

[Chorus][x2]

Woo!
Here come the drums, here come the drums

[Chorus]

Baby, baby, baby
You just take hold
Don't say maybe, maybe
Do I twist do I fold?
