[quote]Everyone who talks smack about anime isn't a fan of it so they don't understand what it means for some of us that honestly love it and want to support the shows we love. Anime/manga will only continue coming out with more seasons based on the sales factors of items like figures, DVDs, manga, etc. And for all the salty ladies and gentlemen out there, otaku aren't lonely virgins. I have a girlfriend and we definitely get it on very often, I've had plenty of relationships. And I have many otaku friends who are happily married. So quit with the salt and let others enjoy their hobbies. You don't know how important it is for some of us.[/quote] [quote]An otaku is someone who enjoys Japanese animation (anime) and comic books (manga) and collecting figures and items. It's okay for all these people to love Avengers and Justice League and other super heroes and read/collect comic books and figures, sexualizing Wonder Woman, Power Girl, and other female heroes, yet just because it's not American, it's immediately bad. Anime and manga have a huge economic influence in Japan despite how even most people in Japan would like to disagree. Heck, Big Hero 6 was originally Japanese, but now you see all these people loving it. Japanese animation and comics have a huge influence even in America. The movie that Tom Cruise starred in, Edge of Tomorrow, that was an adaptation of a manga. So before people start hating on anime and manga, realize that you've actually been exposed and have probably loved something that was either a Japanese anime/manga, or was adapted from one. I love anime and manga, it has a special place in my heart because it has helped me through some very dark times. I just can't stand when people put down this hobby for others when they don't even understand how large of an impact that otaku lifestyle has in all parts of life.[/quote] Just a couple of comments from an otaku. I don't know much about this weeb or weeaboo business, but yeah. I'm not here to convert anyone, just here to state a couple of things and let you know we aren't trying to convert everyone to like anime/manga. If you like it, you like, if not, good for you. Everyone is entitled to their opinion. I just wish you'd be a bit more mature and not make fun of other's hobbies. It's despicable and not what the Destiny community is about. We're all here to have fun and make friends with the same interests.
