Chia decided to change the subject. "What's your brother like? How old is he?" "Masahiko is seventeen," Mitsuko said. "He is a 'pathological - techno - fetishist - with - social - deficit," ' this last all strung together like one word, indicating a concept that taxed the lexicon of the ear-clips. Chia wondered briefly if it would be worth running it through her Sandbenders, whose translation functions updated automatically whenever she ported. "A what?" "Otaku," Mitsuko said carefully in Japanese. ~ William Gibson
Otaku quotes by William Gibson
Everyone says I am an otaku, but recently everyone is an otaku, even if they just have a hobby. If someone says they are an otaku, I am a little doubtful. --Uchimura Amika ~ Patrick W. Galbraith
Otaku quotes by Patrick W. Galbraith
Lurking at the foundations of otaku culture is the complex yearning to produce a pseudo Japan once again from American-made material, after the destruction of the "good old Japan" through the defeat in World War II. ~ Hiroki Azuma
Otaku quotes by Hiroki Azuma
Life in Japan, nowadays, is nothing like a Kurosawa movie, and only the contemptible Weeaboo thinks that it is. In order to be a whole, well-rounded Otaku, you need to be up on Japanese popular culture, as much as you may be up on anime, samurai philosophy or the canon of Square Enix games. ~ Alexei Maxim Russell
Otaku quotes by Alexei Maxim Russell
They [Otaku] despise physical contact and love media, technical communication, and the realm of reproduction and simulation in general. They are enthusiastic collectors and manipulators of useless artifacts and information. They are an underground, but they are not opposed to the system. They change, manipulate, and subvert ready-made products, but at the same time they are the apotheosis of consumerism and an ideal workforce for contemporary Japanese capitalism. They are the children of the media. ~ Volker Grassmuck
Otaku quotes by Volker Grassmuck
Between the otaku and Japan lies the United States. ~ Hiroki Azuma
Otaku quotes by Hiroki Azuma
Otaku (おた) is also a formal way of saying "you". た means "house", and with the honorific お, it literally means "your honorable house", implying that you are less of a person and more of a place, fixed in space and contained under a roof. Makes sense that the stereotype of the modern otaku is a shut-in, an obsessed loner and social isolate who rarely leaves his house. ~ Ruth Ozeki
Otaku quotes by Ruth Ozeki
Whereas an Otaku is a true connoisseur of the culture, showing the same reverence and respectful distance which any true expert
shows to their chosen field of expertise, the Weeaboo is like a socially awkward adolescent, ineptly trying to gain the social acceptance of Japanese people - because their unfortunate mental disorder has caused them to believe they are, in fact, Japanese. ~ Alexei Maxim Russell
Otaku quotes by Alexei Maxim Russell
Hackers are nerdy, pasty, tubby, little geeks with triple thick glasses and this is probably a demented otaku with smelly feet. So catching him will be a breeze! ~ Keiko Nobumoto
Otaku quotes by Keiko Nobumoto
I'm the poster boy for no movement."
"I think the girls disagree with that statement. I've seen your pictures on the Internet. What does your generation say? Oh,yes, they are otaku<I> for you. ~ Jesikah Sundin
Otaku quotes by Jesikah Sundin
Almost all Japanese animation is produced with hardly any basis taken from observing real people, you know. It's produced by humans who can't stand looking at other humans. And that's why the industry is full of otaku! ~ Hayao Miyazaki
Otaku quotes by Hayao Miyazaki
Understanding otaku-hood, I think, is one of the keys to understanding the culture of the Web. There is something profoundly postnational about it, extra-geographic. We are all curators, in the postmodern world, whether we want to be or not. ~ William Gibson
Otaku quotes by William Gibson
The presence of otaku culture is a grotesque reflection of the fragility of Japanese identity. This is because the "Japanese" themes and modes of expression created by otaku are in fact all imitations and distortions of U.S.-made material. On the other hand, the presence of this culture is connected to the narcissism of the 1980s and is also a fetish that can feed the illusion of Japan being at the cutting edge of the world. ~ Hiroki Azuma
Otaku quotes by Hiroki Azuma
You have to find a group that really desperately cares about what it is you have to say. Talk to them. They have something I call otaku. It's a great Japanese word. It describes the desire of someone who's obsessed to, say, drive across Tokyo to try a new Ramen noodle place 'cause that's what they do, they get obsessed with it. ~ Seth Godin
Otaku quotes by Seth Godin
I'm wearing black leggings and a loose top festooned with a Menger sponge of empty pockets stitched out of smaller pockets and smaller still, almost down to the limits of visibility woven in freefall by hordes of tiny otaku spiders, I'm told, their genes programmed by an obsessive-compulsive sartorial topologist. ~ Charles Stross
Otaku quotes by Charles Stross
The history of otaku culture is one of adaptation, of how to domesticate American culture. ~ Hiroki Azuma
Otaku quotes by Hiroki Azuma
You`ll wondering why aren`t you born in Japan if you think you`re an Otaku ~ Otaku Quotes
Otaku quotes by Otaku Quotes
The obsession with Japan in otaku culture did not develop from Japanese tradition, but rather emerged after this tradition disappeared. ~ Hiroki Azuma
Otaku quotes by Hiroki Azuma

If you like the way i'm thinkin' baby wink at it^o* ~ Jason Mraz
