I've been seeing many people online lately who are [i]very clearly[/i] weebs, but always claim to be an otaku. It's really quite annoying to find these people, because they have no idea what they're doing and are annoying almost everyone.
So, what do you think, #Offtopic?

I'm 12 what is this?

A weeaboo is a non japanese person who basically denounces their own culture and calls themselves japanese. They try to learn japanese through the anime they watch and usually end up pronouncing it wrong and looking like a complete idiot. KEEP IN MIND: that a non-japanese person can like the culture, watch anime, speak the language and RESPECT THE CULTURE, while still keeping in touch with there own.

Well, the very definition of otaku is not the same as weeaboo. Otaku is a literal Japanese word that's basically their version of 'nerd'. So, is there a difference between a nerd and a weeaboo? Yes. So there's your answer.
-
Well had to check comments what that word means but I'm pretty sure if you are using their language to give yourself a title that makes you a weeabo

Otaku (おたく/オタク ?) is a Japanese term for people with obsessive interests, commonly the anime and manga fandom. Its contemporary usage originated with Akio Nakamori's 1983 essay in Manga Burikko.

I watch it occasionally. Am I one of those?

Look up the definitions before you spew nonsense

Edited by Princess Anomaly: 2/21/2016 11:05:38 PMIt's funny because otaku basically means you have no life and sit around watching anime all day. You shouldn't [i]want[/i] to be or be proud to be an otaku.
-
I think anime is the problem, it needs to be stopped
-
Neither deserve life, so I don't see why it matters. Just fire up the extermination chambers.
-
The actualt definition of an Otaku is someone who sucks at socializing because of their onsession with anime, manga or TECHNOLOGY... jesus people, you don't need to like anime to be considered an Otaku
-
Otaku is lowkey weeaboo
-
They're just too afraid to admit what they are.

Isn't "Otaku" a derogatory term in Japan? Doesn't it basically just mean "NEET"?
-
"I'm not a weeb,I'm just an anime casual." [spoiler]Who the hell says that?[/spoiler]
-
It kills me when people refer to themselves as an "otaku." If you said that about yourself in Japan, it would be just like calling yourself a fgt anywhere else. If you call yourself an otaku, you're a fool.

If you collect shit, pretty red flaggish, but hey, hobbies. If you find a Rosetta Stone underneath their hentai stash, file for euthanizing.

They are all inferior

Anybody who watches anime is a weeb
