I hate this so much.

Wears merch, and ppl think i am fake BUT THEY DON'T KNOW THAT I HAVE READ ALL OF THE MANGE , WATCHED ALL OF THE EPISODES, READ EVERY FAN FIC, HAVE A FAN ACCOUNT/ PAGE, HAS A SHRINE OF THAT ANIME.... yup, i should calm down. Ill let my self out...
*btw, im not talking about death note, another anime ;)*

I know your pain.
Ninth grade, wear a Bleach shirt to school.
Some D-bag: I bet you haven't even seen one episode
Me: goes home and stares at collection of Bleach DVDs and Manga.
Thanks to the girls who fake liking this stuff to get boyfriends, any girl who likes Shouen anime and manga has to go through twenty-questions before being accepted.

The first half of Death note is great, but after *insert name here* dies it becomes rather hard to watch, but that's just my opinion

That made it interesting I think. But it was really sad

yeah but the tension between *insert name here* and the protagonist isn't here anymore and that was like the favorite part for me the tension betweenthem how they think and look

Yeah i know what you mean... I waited like 5 months after *insert name here* died to finnish the anime.... It was just too shocking and sad... And i thought it wouldnt be the same without him

Not that I know of.

The meaning in Japanese used to be demeaning, but nowadays it's become less of an insult.

actually yeah because its a dishonor for there family and other country expressing yourselves *most if the time good

The word it's self is the Japanese equivalent of 'nerd', but most people use it as a word for someone who really likes anime

Saying you're an Otaku doesn't always mean bragging about it, it could just be a way of finding other Otakus
