America's Greatest Otaku
Really Tokyopop? Reallly?
Okay. So the idea of this show is that 6 people who appear to be normalfags that maybe dabble in anime every so often go around the US looking for "America's Greatest Otaku." They do this by going to the worst of anime fans and making people who actually enjoy anime look like retards.
Take that for example. I'm sorry, but this is why I want to smack myself everytime I go to a con. I love anime. I live and breath it. I draw shitty little manga. I watch at least one show a day, most of the times more. My MAL list shows 119 tv shows, 22 OVA, 23 movies, 11 Specials.
I do not go around parading the fact I like anime. Not many of my real life friends know how much I enjoy anime. No one except whoever reads this and my boyfriend and a few IRC friends know I play Visual Novels. No one knows that I plan on collecting figurines. No one knows that I spend a good 3 hours a day on /a/ (at least). I even just gained 3 japanese penpals to chat with.
I have a friend who's watched over 400 series. And he doesn't even act like that.
The greatest pride was a good friend posting on her facebook that she was going to be asking a few friends question for a school paper on otaku. I was not chosen to be asked questions. It made me realize I have done a goddamn EXCELLENT job at hiding my power level.
You know why i have to hide my power level?
Watch the above video. Because I don't want to be associated with that.
I need a facepalm icon.
