Akihiko Kondo is a 38-year old fictosexual, which is someone attracted to fictional characters. He married a holographic representation of virtual star Hatsune Miku in 2018, but is now unable to talk to her due to a software glitch.
He would talk to her through a $1300 device called Gamebox, but the developers now say the limited production model of Miku has run its course. Now he gets a network error when he tries to communicate with his wife.
Kondo says his love for Miku hasn’t changed. He married her in a ceremony that cost $17,300 because he thought they would be together forever. He’s since commissioned a life-size doll of Miku to keep him company.
