so who here is one?
I am an otaku and trust me we don't act like that.
-
A true otaku would be worse.
-
ya, im an otaku
i'm a big fan of dragonball z
(piccolo4lief!!!)
-
time to go to google so I understand the context. :|
edit: I have returned. I am not one. :-P
-
My only obsessive fandom is with this webcomic.
Maybe a few others, too.
But it ain't otaku level, that's for sure!
-
Oh god... i think i may be one... Comics, vidio/computer games, no life beyond the preceeding...
...crap...

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....

YOU DID WHAT!!!??????
Zero would like to have a few words with you.....

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?
-
You took something serious with a character named Schneizel?
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.
-
And then there's that. (http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schnitzel)
-
*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.
-
None of them are as bad as being named after food.

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.
But don't quote me on that.

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.
-
Anime didn't bind me, either.
At least, not enough that a good salad didn't help.
-
I used to be really into anime and manga. Then I moved. I think I was really into because my friends were.
Does that make me a social otaku?

an elastic band will keep the ears on your head.
-
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.

are you trying to cosplay as inuyasha?
-
Perish the thought.
I think it's pretty clear I'm trying not to cosplay as Inuyasha. Trying really hard.

so you are, your just in denial about it.
-
Well it could be worse, you could secretly harbour a desire to go as Sakura Kinimoto
-
Yes, that would be worse. Much worse—almost as bad as wanting to be Fluffy.
Standards, I has 'em.
-
Don't worry, they won't last long. Something always comes along to lower them!

I am a figment of your mind.
It's OK, though. You're a figment of mine, too.
-
Actually, I've been defigmentized. A very painful process, as it turns out. But no more figments. Instead, I now have delusions. So, rest easy—you're not a figment of my imagination, but a delusion of my mental instability, which means you'll last longer. Much longer.

I'm a Shadowcraft Mage so i turn all those figments into shadows.

Wait, you mean this ISN'T a dream I'm having during an alcohol induced coma!?
My mind, it is blown...

Nonono; that's what would be happening if this were an alcoholic coma dream.

Crap, Heavyoak. That photo is a metaphor for my life. I did too good a job when I
let you creep from the primordial ooze that suppurates dreamed you up.

Is that like being transmitted through Wonkavisiontm?

Can't say; never been Wonka'd. It's not on my itinerary, either.

Oh god! THIS thread made it to a second page!? You people have WAY to much spare time...

Resistance is voltage divided by current.

Since we're off-topic anyway, this is as good a time as any for me to point out how VERY DISAPPOINTED I will be if the real-life raoullefere turns out not to look like his avatar.
-
What a very strange notion to hang hopes and dreams on.
Still, the thread seems to be unraveling. Mission accomplished, and thanks, Mr. Breathed.

there is hop for this thread :mrgreen:

I think what this thread really needs is more hops. Care to join me for a pint?

A pint of hops? Are you crazy?
I mean I like a good IPA as much as the next man but that's just taking things too far!

I think it's more than unraveled at this point. This thread is now a tangled mess on the rug, just waiting to trip the next passerby!

Man if only real explosions worked like anime explosions, blowing shit up would be way more awesome that it already is.
And Mythbusters would have their own channel.
-
Any awesomeness would be balanced by the goofy announcements that would have to be screamed before detonating anything. Not that Savage would have a problem with doing that.
-
"It blowed up real good."
-
No, no, no. Mythbusters Destructonourmous Explosiveness!
Build Team Megacrash Catastrophicness!
Giant Eel! (No, wait, that's the original Iron Chef.)
-
And hopefully, it won't take three episodes to power up
-
They power up by blowing themselves up.
-
Wait, is this thread back on topic?
How the hell did that happen?
-
Careful management
And Otome Guards
-
Drat. Foiled again. I need time to assimilate the meaning of this setback.
-
You're assuming that setbacks have meaning.
-

i'm awesome.
thats how.
-
Nah, can't be that. I mean, you forget apostrophes. And really, we're only peripherally back on thread, unless one of you is trying to say I'm otaku for Mythbusters.
Which patently isn't true. I sometimes forget to watch Adam, Jamie, Tory, Grant, and Jessie (Kari's on maternity leave with baby Stella).
-
otaku for Mythbusters.
raises hand
Guilty.
And if you know the name of Kari's baby, so are you.

Otaku of Hockey?

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.
-
I always understand words how they were originally used and not how the people here and now use it.
FYP.

NO U
also, I cosplay, own 30 figurines , and I go to every anime convention near me.
-
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!!

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

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

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

Baby, baby, baby
You just take hold
