[x] You've seen at least one anime.
[x] You've read at least one manga.
[x] You watch anime/read manga on a regular basis. (Does playing Japanese games count?)
[x] You think that anime and western cartoons are two separate things.
[ ] You're in anime club. (Used to be)
[x] You've cosplayed at least once.
[ ] You counted Halloween costumes from when you were a kid as cosplay. (Lost count, sorry)
[x] You cosplay in public. (at conventions/special occasions)
[x] You've been to at least one anime convention.
[ ] You cosplayed there. (Not yet)
[ ] You travelled more than 200 miles to get there.
[ ] You like Japanese food.
[ ] You like any of the following in particular: sushi, Pocky, cheap ramen, ramune.
[ ] You know that sushi isn't just raw fish.
[ ] You've made bento lunch.
[ ] You've made a charabento.
[ ] You go to the Asian shop on a regular basis.
[ ] You've actually been to Japan.
[ ] You've been to Japan solely for the anime, video games or idols.
[x] You're learning/know Japanese.
[ ] You're learning it to watch anime without subtitles.
[ ] You have Japanese blood.
[ ] You CLAIM to have Japanese blood. (Pfft, no. :/ )
[x] You're in love with a fictional character made by Japanese people. (Regular fangirl love, not the obsessive ZOMG HEZ REEEEEEEEL!11!1 kind of love)
[ ] You claim you're married to said fictional character. (Did you know you can actually MARRY a fictional character in Japan? You can even change your name and BECOME Rei Ayanami. Literally. I think there's a term for that. Talk about Nightmare Fuel. D: )
[ ] Anime is so much better than western cartoons. (Ah ha. Ah ha. AH HA HA HA HA HA HA HA. /realist)
[ ] You call all cartoons anime. (If I did that, everyone would kick me in the spleen)
[ ] Anyone who hates anime is dead to you.
[ ] You call characters by their original Japanese names (Depends on the character. I call him Mugen Graceland as opposed to Newton Graceland since I don't want to break the Zero x INFI x Infinity cycle. Plus it makes sense to me. :P)
[ ] You call characters by their romaji spelling (Does preferring "Burakki" over "Blacky" count?)
[ ] You defend Pearl Harbour. (LOL THOSE HAWAIIANS DESERVED TO BE BOMBED BY JAPAN LOLOLOLOLOLZ)
[ ] You think Pearl Harbour's a new anime that just started airing in Japan. (People actually think that? HISTORY FAIL, FUCKERS)
[ ] You think Japan is the greatest country on Earth. (Yes, the same country who brought us Unit 731 and the Rape of Nanking! Go ahead and ask what they think of the natives who live up North. Diiiiiiiiiiiirty, fiiiiiiiiiiiiiiilthy people, just like (and probably worse) than how we treat the Native Americans in our own country in the past and today. In other words, Japan is *GASP* imperfect and is a regular country capable of performing atrocities against mankind just like the rest of us. /cynical)
[ ] You think that just because they make the best media. (Video games, I'll admit to that. Nomnomnom)
[x] You listen to J-music.
[ ] Exclusively.
[ ] You know that it's pronounced "Gakuto" and not "Gackt". (Pfft. Idiots)

[ ] You like Hetalia.
[ ] You think Japan is the best character.
[x] You wear items of anime-related clothing in public.
[ ] You play only Japanese videogames/watch Japanese shows/eat Japanese food. (Are we getting borderline racist here?)
[ ] You use Japanese honorifics.
[ ] To refer to yourself
[x] Your entire room is full of anime merchandise. (It's a mix)

[ ] Legally.
[ ] You want to give your kid a Japanese name.
[ ] You want to name your kid after an anime character.
[ ] You've considered having surgery to look oriental
[ ] You've had it done. (WTFUCKINGEFF. Why do I imagine them re-engineering themselves to look like Elegy statues?)
[ ] You stalk the Japanese exchange students.
[ ] You've been arrested for doing so. (Oh my god. Oh my dear fucking god. D: )
[x] You use memes in daily conversation. (Memes aren't exclusive to Japanese media, you know. Ask Willy Wonka and Leonidas. :P)
[x] You watch abridged series. (Sure, when I'm not lazy)
[x] You get most of the jokes. (Isn't that the intended audience though? :P)
[x] You use tildes while typing~ (Okay, guilty as charged. Frequently. To sound sing-song, not Japanese. :P)
[x] You use Japanese emoticons
[x] You make attempt to Japanese sounding by the Engrish typing. (If I'm making a joke, likely)
[ ] You claim you're Japanese on your dA/Facebook/Myspace/whatever. (Fucking liar)
[ ] You're not.
[ ] You're not even Asian.
[ ] If you're Asian, you think doing Japanese stuff helps you get in touch with your heritage. (...)
[ ] And you're not even Japanese.
[ ] People call you a weeaboo.
[ ] You prefer the term otaku. (You're aware "otaku" is a deragatory term, right?)
[ ] You break out into Caramelldansen in public.
[ ] You want to date a Japanese person.
[ ] No other nationality will do. (RACIST! RACIST!)
[ ] You watch Naruto.
[ ] You wear the headbands.
[ ] Every day
[ ] You're bitching at me because they're properly called "forehead protectors"
[ ] You bought said headban- erm FOREHEAD PROTECTOR at Hot Topic. (Really? I thought Kishimoto invented those *ahem* "forehead protectors" because he was sick of drawing Naruto's goggles. :P)
[ ] You act out scenes from the show.
[ ] FFVII is the best game ever. (No it's not. :D Not saying it's a BAD game, but there's plenty of games infinitely better. :P)
[ ] Sephiroth is yours. (No thanks)
[ ] Kingdom Hearts is awesome. (It's all right, just not as awesome as it could be. D:)
[x] AxelxRoxas is KAWAII DESU NE~~~!!1 (ZOMG ITZ AKUROKU U N00B!!111 I ship them a little, but yeah, I'm far from what you'd call the biggest KH fan. :P)
[ ] You wish you owned a real Death Note. (On one hand, this wouldn't be a bad idea. I don't know how I'd feel if I literally had the power to kill people though... and I'd HATE to think what would happen if this book got in the hands of racist Anime fans. D:)
[ ] Touhou rocks your life. (Touhou? What's that? :P)
[ ] Anime dubs are the spawn of Satan. (Not all of them. Cowboy Bebop/Trigun/Miyazaki have bitching dubs. You just gotta know where to look. :P)
[ ] Vic Miginola is God. (He's an asshole. :P)
[ ] It's seiiiyu, not voice actor. (Seiyuu. :P If it's talking about a Japanese voice actor/actress, then yes, using seiyuu will be all right as opposed to using "Japanese voice actor/actoress" over and over again. Using seiyuu for an actor of a different nationality however, is rather jarring)
[ ] You use gratuitous Japanese all the time. (Well, the Japanese use gratuitous English all the time. XD)
[ ] You add "desu" to the end of every sentence. (Ahh, only a matter of time before someone gets punched in the face. It's about as appealing as a Western cartoon kiddie with a cute widdle wisp)
[x] The only thing you draw is anime. (My style does lean towards Anime influence, I'll admit that. Not a crime as some people make it out to be, and hey, I'm only a casual artist. :P)
[x] All your friends also like anime.
[ ] You want to become a mangaka. (Used to. Then I decided the deadlines and the high-level stress wasn't for me. D:)
[ ] In Japan.
[ ] Most of your manga/anime is hentai.
[ ] You know that "hentai" doesn't mean "porn" (wat? I do believe that "sexually explicit comics and animation" = "porn")
[ ] You write fanfics for English class. (Yes, and I'd flunk class and my parents will chew me consistently)
[ ] Yaoi fanfics. (Wrong! Yuri. :P But yes, generally a bad idea, especially considering how conservative your city is. :P)
[ ] You know nothing about Japanese culture except for anime, videogames, idols, music, porn and schoolgirls.
[x] Everyone says you have no life.
[x] And it's true. (Thankfully, it's got nothing to do with being a racist 11-year-old otaku. :P)

Score: 23

Score:
0-10: You probably hate Japan. You're not a weeaboo at all, not even close.
10-20: You like SOME Japanese things but, still not a weeaboo.
20-30: At this stage you probably still hate weeaboos. Good news- you're not one.
30-40: You keep your love of Japanese stuff sensible.
40-50: You're very likely a Japanophile, but you're not as annoying as a full-blown weeaboo.
50-60: You're not a weeaboo just yet, but try and moderate it.
60-70: Weeaboo.
70-80: Please stop it!!!!!!
80-90: STOP HUMPING THE MIKU LOVE PILLOW!!!!!!11
90-100: STOP!!!!! FOR THE LOVE OF KAMI-SAMA STOP!!!!!
101: Insane asylum tiems.

Ugh, I feel kind of sick. In short, Japan is no more special or shallow than the rest of us. This probably shouldn't have been the meme I take after reading all the Justin Bieber bullcrap on Pharae's journal. In a nutshell: Justin Bieber fangirls gang up on Lily Allen for insulting their precious Bieber and laugh at her when she loses a baby to miscarriage. One of the fangirls responds with "How can you lose a baby? I just can't see how that can happen to me or especially to you, an adult." I wouldn't put it past the fact that someone in the 20s-30s-older would say such bullshit like that.

People suck. How on earth could we be so insensitive? On a lighter note...
