Otaku Room 4

This guy must spend a lot of time after an earthquake + dusting + looking for stuff.

its going to be really really hard when you have to move to a new room with those stuff <.<

True that. >_<
Unless he somehow managed to conveniently semi-anchor the figures to their places, just to endure some room migration, earthquakes or other disturbances.

Seriously, my moving took a bit of placing everything back in their original box...I wonder if the person kept every single box as well xD. Perhaps in a storage facility...

Terrifying, but I admire their effort to keep things tidy. Heaven help them if there's an earthquake or they need to move house, indeed.

holy cow...he couldve imported a ferrari with all that money. Okay, maybe not, but still, thats ALOT of figures...
萌え命
A Ferrari is tempting, but figures are like an insurance policy in themselves - if someone breaks into your house, there'll be nothing they want to steal!
That's one of the things I like about being an otaku.
Myself-finder
unless the thief is another otaku, then it's JACKPOT!

True, I've considered that, but it's not very likely to happen where I live ^^.
I can pretty much count the number of people I know who have even the vaguest idea of what moe is on my fingers. Sad sad reality...

haha, right on. I've had the same thought process myself on occasion. However, if they're the type of thief that gets pissed that there's nothing to steal, they may just break everything out of spite, lol.

Is that really someone's personal room or actually a shop (although I've never seen even an anime/hobby shop with so many figures crammed in one space)?
College Student
I've seen one where the computer is set up on the bed with the screen on the side because of lack of space. Things like this make me doubt my fandom. Or make me pity the otaku being milked for all their money.

Good luck cleaning up the shelves. I can just imagine the domino effect when one accidentally topples. Don't think he'll be moving house soon too, with all the money being put into buying figures instead lol.
Student
Seems like you've beaten me to the cleaning comment.
kudos for neatness!!!!
Student
Must be hell to clean all those figures when they get dust on them. Bit like playing Jenga when removing them off their shelves.
Student/Raving Bleach Fan
You gotta love how everything is arranged by fetish here. Maids in one corner, swimsuits in another corner, Ikkitousen babes on the shelf... I could go on and on!

Looks like an underground vault to preserve games in case of nuclear fallout or something. Kinda like that movie repository they have in the side of a mountain for that very reason, I think disney owns it or something.
working to pay for figures etc.

Seem to remember seeing that photo a while ago. He would only have to dust about half his collection as most of them seem to be (packed into) cases. However this man is some sort of loony, cramming them all in so tight most of them aren't visible is not really an enjoyable collection!
Dog of the Country
i wonder if he will to sell all his stuffs, how much will he get?
US$10,000? What do u think?
Non-profit org. volunteering work addict
Btw, are you able to tell how much he could have paid to obtain all of them (aka their value).
Please, thanks much.

That's why you should use a big display case. It's not only better for keeping all your figures in place, it also looks good.

Woah, figure overload/overkill!
I do not really envy this guy as there is vital space taken and like you said Danny, lots of drawbacks to that.
Though I must second other members in that that person is super organized.
I bet he religiously reveres to each of his figures every night and morning.
Btw the way he has organized his figures reminds me of the way I have sorted (and constantly updating the arrangement of) the drinking glasses when working in the shop of the non-gouv. association I am right now. ^^;

That's alot of stuff...
I'm in despair! The fact his room is filled with so much otaku-ness has left me in despair!
I'm ashamed to call myself an otaku when I look at his room, I'll go sit down in a corner now...

Wow.. Now this is what I call a true otaku room.. The guy have more shelves than I have in my room..
I wonder where he stores them after his room is filled.. Bathroom??
That guy has a lot to lose... a lot.

*Incarnates Fuura Kafuka for a moment* No, you're wrong! He is one of the major supporters of the otaku culture!
His continued support and contribution to it and the Japanese economy overall is extraordinary! He does deserve a golden medal for that!

See now? I guess there is a good side to everything.

What about "Where's Baiken?" (unless I'm mistaken on the figure, but it really looks like her)

I'm getting nervous with the thought that an earthquake will pass by his room and BAM! All of the figures, done!
I've seen many pictures of Otaku's rooms, and this one is worth looking at.

I beg to differ with that earthquake. After one he'd be clearing away nothing but dust and tears >_< Ooh, the pain of his heart.

When the guy move, I wonder how hard would it be to pack all those figures!!!

I think its easier to dust all of this compared to Mecha...You have to repose all of them after you're done compared to these figures. Just take-wipe-put down. Sigh...
