Western Otaku Thread

**maji** · 2008/06/28(Sat) 02:48:24

I want to know what Japanese people think of the growing population of western otaku. Also, if any Japanese Otaku want to know how western otaku act, feel free to ask.

European and North American otaku, yes

**maji** · 2009/03/30(Mon) 23:21:40

I think.. when a lot of Japanese hearing 'Western Otaku',
they imagined 'mania of SEIBU-GEKI (gun-action movie in American Old West)'.

I don't think there's a single Japanese person on these boards

I'm not Japanese, but I am a western (Well, australian) otaku that has
visited Japan. People are always talking about the negative connotations
the word 'otaku' has in japan, but when I went there, people didn't seem
like that at all. For the start I tried not to bring up my interests with
Japanese people I had met, but they always ended up bringing it up,
Since I'd end up staring at any anime related shop we walked past. But rather
than being put off by it, they seemed more curious, like how much interest people in
different countries took to Japanese anime. I think Japanese people who dislike Japanese
otaku will dislike western otaku as well, and Japanese people who dislike westerners
will dislike western otaku, but other than those people, western otaku
seemed to be viewed with curiosity and wonderment, considering Japan is actually
a rather closed off country and don't really see the overall effect that
the supposed subculture 'otaku' has taken overseas.

Ain't that deep. Obvious otaku is obvious.

**maji** · 2009/07/09(Thu) 07:39:16

cowboy otaku?

How I feel like being a white girl in Japan

If that situation goes
on,more and more people
will come to enjoy the
Otaku materials and
consequently feel closer
with each other,among
those who like or love
being Otaku.
I think that's amazing.

Reading all the comments on that link made me scared. Is there such a thing as a 'white guy friendly' place in Japan?

**maji** · 2012/08/24(Fri) 16:06:32.74

>>184
You're a fool to believe everything you read on internet. People like you
if you act normal and polite and not stereotypical white

**maji** · 2012/08/27(Mon) 02:23:57.57

>>185
What is the stereotype the Japanese have for white people? I don't know any white stereotypes.

**maji** · 2012/08/27(Mon) 11:00:33.55

>>186
You never heard of the arrogant frenchman, american redneck or the drunken russian?
All those are typical stereotypes for example. But asian consider a
negative stereotype is the white guy who thinks he's better than everybody else, refuse to
speak the local language and customs and so on.

**maji** · 2012/09/07(Fri) 20:49:22.93

In japan, otaku is nagative phrase, but western otaku is positive phrase.
Because Western admire japanese culture.
That is positive for japanese --- japanese unconsciously think Western (mainly white) is greater than japanese.

I went to Tokyo Geijyutsu Daigaku (most popular art college) festival in sunday.
"moe" character of oil painting is very interesting.

In Japan, "moe" isn't art for people in general. Maybe, They have bad feeling.
What does Western otaku think "moe"?

**!ninja** · 2012/09/11(Tue) 16:07:01.48

Moe ha kawaii!

**maji** · 2012/09/11(Tue) 22:21:09.24

moe is the best

**maji** · 2012/09/14(Fri) 22:24:54.80

"Moe" is bad feeling in japan,I think the reason it's similar to love little girl, little animal.
If adult male love to them(except case of they are family), japanese people have bad feeling.

**maji** · 2012/12/13(Thu) 09:32:55.25

>>196
Most Americans think moe is stupid and sexist. Moe anime like K-On! is not very popular here.
Anyone who likes moe is considered creepy and a pedophile. Americans like action anime like
Cowboy Bebop and Trigun.
