I hope that this isn't true! Being an otaku is an insult in Japan! This tool is just convenient for people who don't want to pay for anything/want to keep track easily.

i know wat ar u mean so tats why i didnt want to be otaku like the one i categorized there. if we become like tat, we intend to be like hikikomori
for me the good way for otaku is:
- take good thing on anime and throw off the bad thing on anime, tats all

My friend on exchanged from Japan this year to America told me that the most current slang for otaku to say is "moe" whenever they see something cute or something they like. And now teenage girls say it too in order to make fun of them. 🤣

You know you are otaku or borderline if

You know you are an otaku when you practically throw a fit/correct someone when they pronounce an anime/manga term/name wrong 🤣 (I do this all the time 😛 )
