Man falls in love with 10-year-old videogame character
Still remember the petition to marry a 2D character? A branch of Japanese otaku(s) asked for a law to allow human to marry with a 2 dimensional character. Whatever the case was going, somehow a man in Japan admitted he had already been in a loving relationship with a 10-year-old videogame character, and...he meant it.

Nisan, who refuses to mention his real name, is a 37-year-old man living a otaku style life. He once had a real girlfriend, but she dumped him. Nisan's new "girlfriend" is what we've seen in the picture above, a lovely 2D girl known by the name of Nemutan, in the PC game Da Capo.
According to the original report of him:
He carries Nemutan almost everywhere he goes, though he is more self-conscious about it than he may seem at first. "Some people don’t find this funny," he said, "and it also takes up a lot of room." He treats her the way any decent man would treat a girlfriend - he takes her out on the weekends to sing karaoke or take purikura, photo-booth pictures imprinted on a sheet of tiny stickers. He doesn't take her to the work place, but has a spare pillow case with her likeness at the office, just in case he needs to work late. Apparently, "She’s great for falling asleep with on an office chair."
"Of course she is my girlfriend,"he says, when questioned. "I have real feelings for her."
"When I die, I want to be buried with her in my arms," he added.
I think, he, Nisan is a brave man, as an otaku, he shows the courage of explaining the different love stories with a virtual girl. That's definitely romantic. So what do you think?

of cuz respecting wat he loves.. but all this is juz self imaginary since tht thing tht he is in love with cant even understand or know wat is going on since basically its not even a living thing..
i think he is disturb in his mind and chose to have such a *perfect* r/s since tht thing cant even voice its opinoin on anything.
ERM its juz plain wierd and i hope he can find a real n proper r/s.. and not with something tht doesnt even have any feelings at all..
Wow...this is really hard to think of. I mean, people do have feelings (I mean lets talk actual). I mean, you can't exactly tell what a retard is thinking right? Well...maybe this dude has problems, but I mean, its kind of wierd in the public...right? I mean, seeing a 37 year old man...fully mature...holding this little kiddy thing around with him. Definetly embarrising. He is a human being, but he doesn't seem fully normal. Get my point? Its just kind of messed up, and you gotta feel bad for him. Btw, does he have any mental disease or something?
otakus are freaks with no lives ^^
i'll approve of this marriage when he gets that pillow to sign a marriage certificate
Hey, i have the same pillow, she cheating on me????
Disgusting
Heh I know very well what those pillows are for >.>
I wonder if he would get jealous if he saw another guy with the same pillow
Owned ! Sick man!
hmmm I'm not a religious type of guy ( I'm not fond of religion anyway ) but marrying an anime caracter can give some questionable problem to religious people whatever the religion they have
well I like anime and manga and I said some of the caracter are well done but I won't go as far as marrying a 2d girl having sex with or whatever I prefer at most having a Japanese girl friend they are cute and closer to those anime girl
y do i have this felling that something liek this happen b4??!??!?!

Poor guy.Must be really lonely to become like this.It's weird though,to like a 2d char which cant even hear or say anything to you.
i dont fink its something bad, atleast he showed the world that he can treat a virtual girl better than some men treating real women
,,He once had a real girlfriend, but she dumped him.''
So he should think why she dumped him but he choose imaginated love with imaginated girl..
I think that when he will meet real girl who will really love him , he'll leave this 2d character behind.. ;) and everythink will be ok . :) but now he really needs somebody who wake him up .
If it would be a kid i could understand it.. I still can't believe that he is 37-years-old and do such things..
I hope someday he wake up :)
Hyuk: "I think, he, Nisan is a brave man, as an otaku, he shows the courage of explaining the different love stories with a virtual girl. That's definitely romantic. So what do you think?"
Is this you Hyuk? have you come out of the closet?
;)
When I grow up, I would like to become a scientist that invent a bio-mechanical human robot girl like from the anime Chobits and sell them to otakus so that they would fullfill their dreams before they die. Seriously, I'm not kidding, the one who posted the interview one make my head spin
otaku ftw!!!!!!!!
i think they should atleast get a japanese sex doll for those 2d characters. that way they can say they're in love with 3d characters, and it wouldn't be as strange.
Actually, that's what most of these pillows are for...
i understand liking people who actually don't exist.. Example Naruto Dirty age.. funny old coot.. but seriouly common sense should kick in saying.. that thing doesn't love you..!!!
what the hell is going on with are minds
wonder if he shags the pillow? ewww
You gotta ask yourself though, how lonely and desparate he must desire to be loved, that he would imagine a relationship between him and an anime character, then you gotta ask your self what the hell could have brought him to that point?
you cant help but pitty him
In 2007 there was a movie called "Lars and the Real Girl" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I1XxILVnt1w). It's about the man Lars and his girlfriend Bianca who is actually a silicon puppet. Like our japanese Friend here, Lars treats that puppet like a real woman and takes her everywhere with him, while some people in the town think he's crazy. Quite interesting movie.
I also remember reading once an article in a swiss magazine about some guys from the USA who live with their silicon puppets. There where also a few photos of them and they showed how those guys had daily situations with their puppets (such as drinking coffee at the local cafe or sitting on a bench in the garden, arm in arm).
I don't think such people are crazy, I guess they're maybe just lonely.
I really don't know, but still I can understand them.
Where is the A team, when you need them.Quickily before he turns into a real petofile
This is one sick ****
Nothing's wrong with his face. It's just that I'm going to see his face alongside the anime girl trying to rule the world like in the movie War of the Worlds. I dunno, I'm brain dead X.X Btw, I love how many comments you're getting for this article XD
Its complicated...I can say he is pathetic, but somehow I understand how he feel...some anime honey is just too good to be real...I once wish if I can have a girlfriend like that too...now I think Im pathetic too...XD
lol we as long as he doesn't bother other its fine,
still its kinda shocking but hey this world is filled with waird stuff, and im pretty sure some of u people have time when other people flaming or hating for what u like. Well if u have u know what i mean. XD omg i think i said something smart there

Atleast we know he's not breeding.
Thats crazy shit windi!
a crazy man in a crazy country
Ah, and Da Capo is a dating/sex sim. They are suppose to be seduced and likeable...it's programming.That's like saying "I like this hooker because she has sex with me." It's like...her job. She's suppose too....
Hey, I get it to a degree. I'm still in love with Rune from Phantasy Star 4 and Link. Who doesn't love Link? Bridget from Guily Gear made an entire generation of male gamers rethink their sexual orientation, but this guy is a bit much. Doesn't he know that characters are a colaberation of several Artists and Dialog is reharshed and redone by dozens of people? Even in a thing like a manga, there can be an artist and a different writer if they aren't the same person. They write not only the dialog for one character, but for entire stories with multiple people. It's one thing to idolize someone's art or writing, but to single out a character and state them as any form of 'alive' other than 'well-written' is completely bogus.
I've got nothing to say about his love for 2D, but there's no need to exaggerate with the character being THAT young.
The exact age I'm not sure, but definitely in high school (16-18 years old, therefore this doesn't fall under the "loli" category), as I don't follow Da Capo.
oh my, thats a little....off? Oh by the way, I just realized that the posters avatar is from Nana! I love that manga!
wow, i mean..........wow!!!
Well now...ahem...how does one start their response to something like this? XD Actually...I really don't have anything to say about this so...um...yeah. Just gonna go have nightmares of this dude's face now. Night XP
wait im confused so its a character from a game?
or is it his character from a game he plays?
if so i wonder how he would feel if he got banned O_o
she is NOT 10!!! LOOK at her iz obvious! (I suppose that would make this fake, but just in case it's not... it's creepy and he's a pedo in love with someTHING that can never love him back so his girlfriend from b4 must've REALLY messed him up!)
oh gawwwwwd
Hooowhoooaaahohoho.
Weird.
It's not romantic, no, it's not at all. First of all, the guy is a pedophile, would you say it was romantic if he was chasing after a real 10 year old girl too?
This guy has SERIOUS mental problems and needs to seek help. You can't just say "Aww that's romantic" (romance by the way is between two lovers, not a person and inanimate pillow picture). He has problems with women, they can be overcome. He can get a real girlfriend again. He doesn't have to do this. He is totally deranged and he should be under professional care to get over this.
GOD D**M I just gotta ROFL to this!!! Its no wonder foreigners like my black self can easily go to Japan and F**k their women. These kinds of dudes all be playing street fighter, sims and mims in dark arcades (in that otaku district that i'd never wanna go to) with fake avatars haha to funny.
For record whoever said never going to Japan..this guy exclude him please he just is weird weirdddd, im not into anime but dang good stuff besides that there that you will enjoy!
i mean she's like 15 -typo-
lol menu is not 10.......she's like 10..... but that's not the point -saw a hole that leaking cotton- how did it.....
um....Okay.
Well who am I to critisize others... god knows we need less people in this crowded world.
All I can say is Natural Selection!
this guys needs to get a life and stop playing video games
lol @ salutorius,I think most nations would define marriage as man & woman. So in this case, Nisan wanted to marry this virtual "woman", so technically it's still a man & woman case, unlike the case of homo-sexual.
(I'm not saying that homo-sexual people shouldn't be able to get married or anything, so please don't flame me xD )
ok thats just wrong seriously your not supposed to love a pillow that much. Also if they do alow him to marry the pillow they should call it somthing else you can wait forever but the pillow will nere say i do or um bear children. I really dont care if this is passed cause it wont effect me but if this is passed can you people imagaine how pissed the gay community will be
So any of you who pick on him or tease him. Youve never had that momment of pure true love that'd youd never leave him/her for anything? If you ever had that then Your EXACTLY like him. That Love is something you never see anymore
I completely under stand how he feels and I say LET HIM True love doesnt need to be understood by some jackass's in suits. "Nisan" Honestly i'd support him in that trial to marry her.
Well Xmisael, that was when you were nine, this guy is damn near 40. But as long as he isn't bothering anyone I guess its ok. But, this just made it official that im NEVER going to Japan. Ever. Thanks for the anime Japan, but you guys are kinda losin' it.
But, this guy sure could make a lot of people feel a hell of alot better about themselves
Well this guy is as said kinda brave to do stuff like that lol.... As long as he doesnt disturb other people, I think its ok I guess... even though its strange.
what the...?
man thats just wrong from my view....
Rofl, I thought this was about a guy falling in-love with a 10 year old girl, who plays as a videogame char.
So fucking funny
._.
I understand. I once fell in love with my right hand. She helped me do almost everything, was nice going, easy to talk and was great at bed. Now I'm seeing my lefty, its all about variaty.
yea that girl cute but that is sick!
and i dont gie her 10 i give her 12-14 ... my piont is that he is out of his mind and my advice is: Dont read lolicon mangas u f**king Prev!
Personally, as long as he doesn't bother other ppl in public and act normal toward real ppl. Then I see nothing wrong with him having his own "space," it's not harming you or me, right? It's like a little kid going everywhere with his blanket.... it's just in his case, it's a pillow and his older.
ummm i kinda respect him i gues...but its kinda....creepy O.o
I think that it's just a fake...
find yourself a hobby man
that guy is a pervert
Marrying 2d character is fail because she cant say about her true feelings. Also loving 10 age girl are pedofilia...
i fell in love with a anime character when i was 9 so... its not that imposible >_>
we must realize girls from anime are hawt
holy shit,as much as i like watching anime i wont never do that.........speech less..........
Stupid post poor stupid... 37 loves 10 is sick... love 2d char is dumb... trying to marry a 2d char is Fing dumb he must be lost his mind , what is he trying to prove?... Not to mention the drawing is poor and ugly...the char personality is totally make up..... old man F a real girl and soon you will forget the stupid 2d char///
Bwahahahaha
I think he needs a straight jacket
Leave your words
