very sad and lonely... I feel.
Hey Danny, are one of these photos yours? xD;
a bit weird, but hey each to his own.
Man that is pretty terrible. And this is coming from a garage kit/manga otaku.
This is not possible, these guys should go to a psyc XD. Hum the question is a hard one. Otaku is a term used to refer to people with obsessive interests especially on anime and manga. Since I'm not obsessed with anime and manga, I only care most part for the art itself and a good story in animes so I don't consider myself an Otaku.
And the funny thing is, this doesn't seem all that rare anymore. I remember Danny posting about this maybe a year ago, and at the time there were only like 3 pictures (Though it could've been that he just didn't bother posting that many at the time). With this many pictures, it's starting to look like a new trend in Japan.
Lol....good for them. I guess I "technically" do this. I like to watch anime when I eat lunch lol, but nothing as extreme as to eat "with" what I see on a screen.
I'm pretty sure (not really, actually) the guy doesn't do this. In any case, if I was having a dinner with wine with Louise, I'd watch out... It would probably make her more tsun tsun
oh my gosh??? Salute..
I'd prefer to dine with somebody who I can talk to and listen from. Exchange smiles and words and actually see them eat my cooking or I eat their cooking :D But hey, some actually looks aright in the photo 'cept the chicken drumsticks... o.O How many here do that?
*ROFL* Ah Danny, sometimes your humor just kills me. I laugh so hard my nuts hurt... oh wait, that's from something else. Anyhow, the gf came over to see was so funny, and didn't quite see the humor in it when I jokingly said "maybe I should get one of those". Evident by the smack upside my head. It's love.
LOL that is just wrong. Its more fun to eat with a bunch of people than facing the PC
What's up with that hunk of meat that has a handle on it? I see two pictures containing them, one of which even has a piece of plastic attached? Is this something Japanese butchers do?
Sometimes I feel sorry for these Otaku's.
wow, that's an impressively scary number of those types of photos. Never knew it was that widespread. BTW, at least one of the above pics is actually a guy! I'll leave the others to sweat it over which one (or more) it may be.
HAHA! That is some collection of pictures you've got there! So funny! Yea, I haven't seen the meat with the plastic thing on it before.. hmm..
wow, i feel truly sad for these people. btw, whats with that one picture where the food is sitting on top of a wacom? i would never do that to my wacom under any circumstances.
the obvious next step is to combine this practice with some kind of motion sensor and a follow-me flash movie, such as the haruhi/mikuru/yuki ones on the website for the haruhi psp game, so you can dine with someone who follows your movements.
it's kinda disturbing actually. kinda... ('~')
This is making me second guess my life style.. is this the next level otaku or pretty common? ^^; I'd rather have one Candy Girl than dinner with 4 pillows :D
Awesome, i did laugh a tear. ^o^ (in a positive way) All those pictures with cake... and exspecialy with strawberrys... now i want one too. Thanks for those pics Danny, just registered to say thanks lol... been stalking the site for a while longer already.
I don't know...whats more disturbing, the chocolate curry or this.
@EpicSky you've obviously never tried chocolate curry before, it's actually very good, try it sometime
LOL, this just justifies the fact that otaku not being able to get girls is completely correct...
lol, I'm sure whoever did this must mean it as a joke.
wow, pros. Now i only know can have this way, GOOD JOB ! BTW, after see all the food in the picture, now feel extremely hungry ...
there should be more otaku girls so that we otaku guys can get girlfriends. ('~')
is this phenomena real or just for show? If it is real the people who do this will probably find the guy running down the street with panties on his head quite normal. see Dannychoo-"Naked in Akihabara" the disturbing part is I've seen many other picture like this.
so the myth is true?
Damn. My photos have been found.
mmmMmmM chocolate soup lol
I got the feeling like as though they are offering food to the dead i.e Hungry Ghost Festival.
I feel damn sad for those guys. Wow, I can comment by itouch! Cool
Words cannot express how sad this is... DX
I don't know whether to laugh or to cry at the sadness of it.
Well, it makes for less competition for all the eligible girls out there. Take it for the team boys! Even if it's unintentional.
alright, danny, you just made me in despair coz i still got no girlfriend till now... ...and yes, i'm an otaku...
That's kinda sad really.
so who clears the second share at the end? o.O
This is kind of a big LOL, tickled my funny bone. Interesting idea =x
Times like this I am reminded why I am still an girlfriend-less otaku (^_^')
Ehhh this is a hard one to answer for the poll- at best "Otakuish" tendencies. I really enjoy anime and collecting stuff such as figures and model kits from Japan, however going as deep as eroge, those pillow things (I should know what they are called! I am studying Japanese) or staying in my room all the time is just not me. I venture out of the room and socialize with people but not to a great effect- According to the Myers-Briggs test I am a 19/20 introvert with some extravert tendencies (6/20)- so I do like to talk with people and socialize when they arn't being idiots. Am also in the same category with many who have no boyfriend or girlfriend. I never played the dating game in high school and I won't start now in college; I am waiting for that right time and that right moment to meet that 1 woman out of 3,000,000.000 of 'em. As lonely as that is I push on and hold onto that value that my day is someday. Until then I push on with my studies. I have sympathy yet share a curious interest with the Otaku mind. Anime is awesome and I think I will enjoy it for life: however Eroge and all this "deep" deep stuff is not really my game. I can understand the otaku mind, yet at the same time I can venture around and try to make the best of my current situation. Thats not to say otaku don't make the best of their situation- I make the best of my situation how I see fit. Power to otaku!
ummm....
Shame I can't bust out the dakimakura at my parents house. At least I can share a moment with Kaede on my PC come Christmas, though.
got no GF here too TOT, but i rather be alone than getting noisy GF the guy who make this photo is either got to many heartbreak, already refuse the real life girl, or just having fun ^_^
HOLY CRAP... lol You know... they should make eroge dakimakura, but for girls. Like with sexy guys on them instead. ;D
a little bit disturbing, but then again no one is perfect. I still consider myself an Otaku since I have GUNPLA, my Japanese friend(who is female) says its "KI-Moe" or bad, but then again she calls most people on campus otaku since they don't dress like people in harajuku or Ikeburo.. she says I am Shinjuku cuz i wear my suit like "sara-ri-man" .
I consider myself an otaku but I think I would stop being one if it gets to this level.
That's sad to see. Well, if they are glad worshipping their 2D idols, why not? Maybe have they all tried to be in in a relationship and never found happiness. If you consider this to be part of otaku-ism, please count me out. I am quite okay with my life for now and I don't think I'd do something that extreme ever in my life. By the way syrix, my friend, what you do (which I do too) is multi-tasking and nothing else. ^^
Here I'm just hoping they do it just for the gag.
im an otaku but if i ever get to this stage i hope theres someone who'll slap me back into reality period!
See? The myth is totally untrue...
You better not get my hopes up Danny. You better not. sniff-sniff ..LOL
