Ten Ways To Spot An Otaku (There You Are!!)
Category: My diary Game: Default Posted on Oct 18, 2009 12:00 am
So there you are!!! Your an otaku right?? RIGHT???!!! If you really are then you should meet the qualifications needed to be an official Otaku to everone's eye! Yes! That is needed to distinguish the normal to the obsess type!
So a voting system was made in Japan and the TOP 10 LIST on How you can spot an otaku was made! So don't blame me for the list! Blame the people who voted for this! And just look to where you fall in the category.
1. Has an anime T-shirt - anime t-shirt are now popular this days because anime characters looks good to both children and adult. It can even be modern type design or old fashion but still if its your favorite you must have it!
2. Has an anime shopping bag - You want to stay with your beloved character everywhere. So you bought a nice bag with double purpose. To have a new bag and to show off your favorite anime.
3. He has a waist pouch (”fanny pack” / “bum bag”) - Always must have for security purpose. If you spot anime products that are nice to buy you can easily get it using this!
4. He wears a bandanna (hachimaki) - Traditional way but still use up to now. This is made to show dedication on what you are doing, supporting etc.
5. His bag is covered in anime badges - You can't just live without badges. They are small, cute and can be put easily to anything you use.
6. His hair is excessively long - seriously... I don't know why this is noted here..
7. He wears his rucksack over both shoulders - too many things to buy and must have, you can't just have one. It won't fit all!
8. He has big, thick glasses - Not all otakus have glasses you know!! And I mean it! Who the hell put this on the vote?
Ok.. So the sample in the picture looks like a geek because of the glasses but that doesn't mean your an otaku because you have one?!
Ok fine.. With the toy he is holding it is even more perverted to look at it but still..
I won't say any further...
9. He tucks his shirt/T-shirt into his trousers - Honestly, I don't know... And I can't find a right picture to discribe it..
10. He wears chemical wash jeans - because of lack of life. They commonly no sense of style. Always picking something that can be easily get or prepared. Doesn't care much as long as I can hug an anime pillow really. Maybe "no-life" to common people but hey! It's his problem not yours.
So all in all if you fuse all requirements together your face should be like this:
Some may pierce into your heart and soul but who cares!! Welcome to the club of Otakus!!

P.S.
I saw this rankings at Kotaku and I laughed hard because I don't really see the point in the rankings.. Anyway.. This lead me to the real poster of the rankings by Sankaku Complex site which also said the original ranking system was made here. So you get the point that I was lead to these sites by accident (Thanks to Kotaku.. T_T)
