otaku is an umbrella term in the west that is usually used to refer to fujoshi hikikomori and weeaboos. but they are all different in japan and have very different connotations despite being similar terms. except weeaboo which to my knowledge is purely a western term.

otaku - an insulting honourific in japan meaning "home" and refers to those who are the literal scum of society. male members of society who obsess over anime and manga to the point of closing themselves off from society solely to read manga watch anime and talk about it online. they don't /just/ watch and read, they typically have disgusting fantasies and get bullied for it because they are disgusting men who like young women

fujoshi - a term literally meaning "rotten girl". it is commonly labeled the "girl version of otaku" but this is not wholly true. they have similar aspects but the largest determining factor that makes a girl a fujoshi is that she obsesses over fictional or real male/male relationships and really the best exemplar of this would be the BBC Sherlock fandom, god have mercy on their souls, for their upholding that male/male relationships are superior simply because they are male/male

hikikomori - a term meaning "pulling inward" or "being confined" and refers to those who close themselves off from society. this is not otaku level closing themselves off from society, they take it to a whole new extreme. they will go to extreme lengths to ensure they do not see another human being. it is suspected that a combination of societal pressures and mental illness are be the cause of this.

weeaboo - a western term to refer to western people who are fans of anime/manga and are obsessed with japanese culture. they are typically racists who have a mountain of misunderstandings of japanese culture and think japan is some otaku bastion of anime and manga. they say japanese words in their sentences sometimes or often.

I sorta tried to educate people about the terms Otaku and Weeaboo awhile ago when people were slinging them around.

Didn't last very long though.

Wrong. All of this. What are you? 6? Otakus are not disgusting males who like young women. That would be a pervert. Fujoshi is the ya0i fandom. People can have different opinions on relationships, and you need to accept that fact you brat. Hikikomori is just a person who is affraid of society making fun of them. Like you're making fun of all these otakus fujoshi hikikikomori and weeaboo. A weeaboo is simply someone who shows a profusion amount of interest in Japan. Don't be an IDIOT.

Life can't always be that idyllic though. You can't always apply the "I'm different and that's okay!" mentality to every term you find.


The fact of the matter is that all four of these terms are meant to (and do) carry extremely negative connotations.

@tahu157 Why can humans be different? Is that against the law? Humans were put on this world to create and destroy. They are meant to ALL be different. No human can be EXACTLY "normal".

"@tahu157 Why can humans be different? Is that against the law? Humans were put on this world to create and destroy. They are meant to ALL be different. No human can be EXACTLY "normal"."

Being "different" isn't being "different" if there are more people being "different" along with you.

Also, being "different" doesn't justify doing things or participating in negative activities (because these terms all carry negative qualities) for the sake of being "different" or using the excuse that you are "different".

When you're trying to use being "different" as an excuse to do nothing besides watch anime and have strange tendencies, then you will be fooled into thinking you have a righteous "no one can understand me" mentality, and eventually there is a possibility that you will only get worse over time.

If you try to use being "different" to justify your actions, what makes you different from people who shoot up schools or movie theaters?


You cannot really justify these terms because not even the people who are labeled as these four things will deny that they are such. Hell, there are people who are not even otaku claiming that they are. The ones that do claim that they do not have a problem are usually in denial and one of the people I described above.

It's not my business what an "otaku", a "fujoshi", a "hikkikomori", or even a "weeaboo" do with their time. However, if they are going to do so then they should know what kind of spot they are in, and others should as well. However, not to the point that they "bully" them.

There are too many people in this world worried about what other people do. You cannot change that, so these four types of "different" people will be bullied whether you like it or not, and you will be unable to defend them.

Because there is no way to do so.

I think that i'm an weeaboo (don't mock me please).

Fujoshi is the ya0i fandom. Can't watch a fujoshi reading a manga. I'm scared about this idea O.o *imagines the fujoshi saying "YUM YUM YUM" when she sees two guys beep beep*

@Sonicjr723 Holy heck. You sure say the word "different" a lot. I didn't even bother to read because I know all you guys who are disagreeing are just jerks who want attention and everyone probably thinks you are annoying in reality.

I know, I did that on purpose.

"I didn't even bother to read because I know all you guys who are disagreeing are just jerks who want attention and everyone probably thinks you are annoying in reality."

Or you could admit you are too lazy to read legitimate logic.

Comparing me to a fly swatter? Ha. I tried my best to be as nice as I could. You wouldn't cooperate. You called me worse in those messages I chose not to show. You do realize you do not care for grammar and don't care for others. You said that yourself. Atleast I have a heart and soul.

@tahu157 I can be lazy. It is my choice. Not yours. You shouldn't be worrying over my life whether I am lazy or not.
