オタクール

Impressive ^^

so exciting!!!! :D

That guy sure luvs Aliens. Must be their cuddliness.

I've got this down on order!
Make sure to post a video of the news segment, i'm terrible at finding these things.

Is this gonna be a stand-up fight sir, or another bug hunt?

GAME OVER MAN, GAME OVER!

I'll buy one once I visit Tokyo XD or if it hits Shizuoka shelves - whichever comes first ^w^

Impressive rooms, and impressive talent and passion!

I has it on Pre-order!

Alright I guess I should buy the book now. How I wish I had not being away from home during the submission window.

I see some nice Kaito cosplay ^^
Alien room looks cool - but the idea of sleeping in it is kinda freaky... especially when I imagine waking up in the middle of the night and looking up to see various aliens staring down at you... xP

cannot w8 to see the entire OTACOOL!!! OTAKU FTW! xD

Maybe someone can do a translation of the newspaper article? ^^

Hehe nice to see more previews of who's in the book. I saw a bit more at moeyo.com that showed Zac's room too. I'm sure he'd get a kick out of this ^_^

Amano Ai has the same external harddrive as me how funny

The Alien room is impressive...but I wouldn't want to spend a night in there...

This is so exciting!!!

Totally have teh same room as Amano Ai~ just missing the Amano Ai part in the room. >_>

Oh my this suspense is killing me! Can't wait to see the final results!

Wow this is awesome, really nice rooms there.

And this was even featured in a Japanese newspaper? Wow that's really awesome!

I like the alien one a lot. Very pleasingly grotesque yet beautiful display.

I bet the dude with the aliens wanna have their chestbustin' babies! ... Awesome alien room!

Love Harada-san's Aliens room - used to be part of my ideal dreamscape...

Waaa, I can't wait more!

Like i've said many times before, this is truly an awesome community acheivement
Too bad my room is bare - probably me being overly neat

i would like my room not to be this much crowded . only a few things at my table or here and there thats all. a good minimal modren look to my room i love the best

Sugoi sugoi!Some really nice rooms ^-^

This book is looking mighty interesting. Great rooms everyone.

Woooaaahh!! Nice rooms! And Ai Amano was so cute at photos!!
I can't wait to see the book in my hands! I want see all the rooms that appears in the book!

That unknown chap looks like he's working on something O_O

congrats on the Nippon TV interview!

SOMEDAY I TELL j00z! MY ROOM WILL BE IN THAT BOOK! MARK MY WORDS!!! XD

Wow! It's even featured in the newspaper. Looks like the book will be a great success.

image ID#79242: I think this dude makes figures for a living O_o

I chuckled when I saw "Page Not Found 404" page was under the "Popular from same category" XD

impressive....

These rooms just keep getting even better, wish my room one day gets somewhere close to the quality of these rooms.

OMG I'm in a Japanese Newspaper

Exciting, exciting! That Alien room looks very impressive! :D

wow,this is great! i hope japanese otaku will like this :)

Awesome rooms, Amano Ai so cute! >.<

Jaw-dropping rooms!
That alien room will surely scare those predators away.

Wow at that guy after Amano!
Just look at all those unpainted figus...He's working for GSC or something?

Does someone know how I can get my hands on this newspaper?

agree, i prefer rooms to look roomy, not all crammed together... also whether depending on if you own the place or renting, that'll make a huge difference to what you put in the room...

I'm currently renting, and will be going to Japan for a year, come back probably will be renting for at least 3-5years before I would settle down and find a permanent place... parents are renting also, and they dont plan to buy a place until they reach their retirement age, which is in another 4 years, so cant leave my stuffs with them... so gotta limit the baggage that needs to be carried with me for these years...

I'm not sure about Japanese's people's ability with home ownage, but I'm taking a guess, Ai-chan is renting, that's why she's keeping everything so simple and portable at her place.

Hm... Still don't see my room there. (^.^)

wow Alien !! >_<

I love how this book highlights the many faces of the term 'otaku' and shows the beautiful diversity of truly dedicated fans.
I'm definitely ordering this book. Also, looking forward to seeing what this otacool 2 will develop into ^^

Amano Ai's Wii needs more channels :)

lol i got the same comforter as miles

please - PLEASE - tell me where i can import a copy from!

now i'm thinking in getting one just for curiosity! Hope in the later future there will be a Otacool II and my room be like one of those XD

I wouldn't be able to sleep in that room full of Aliens lol.

So good, so proud of everyone that got into the book.

Keep living the dream everyone!

So please repair the page that everyone can post their stuff. I really want to take this Time Pictures of my Room and Upload them here!

Hope that until then my Room Upgrade has finished.

very nice pics and rooms! :3

Okay, I guess it's time to figure out how to get the book on the cheapest way to Germany...

Loved Amano Ai's room. I like simplicity around me. Let's me think more clearly and with or without all of those displays my passions never leave my mind. (^^)

Nice rooms.. Especially the alien one..

I kinda wish they had a complete list of all the people that got into the book though. But thats some really cool stuff. :P

Mmm... retro brown shagpile rug... the world needs more shagpile.
Awesome to see some more rooms that made it in.

That Alien room is awesome!

Very nice... This inspires me to put actually take pics of my collection. Ive been collecting for about 17 years. :p

Harada Plissken has the coolest name like snake plissken from escape from new york!!!!
cool rooms too

that is freaking awesome! glade to see that the rooms are going to be in the News (^_^) And what do u know! the hottest otaku has the biggest pic (^_^) LMAO

OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG!!!

Every time one of these Otacool posts comes up, I get more and more anxious for the book to come out. It's not long now!

Impressive indeed...

i can't wait for the book.

O_o Man, my friend has about the same amount of stuff, it's just not arranged very neatly because of space limitations ^^ He is definately someone to go for when it comes to Optimus Prime ^_^ I need to get some more cash for my hobby^^

What would one do...if he had a girlfriend who was intolerant of this hobby?

Awesome >w<'' Really want the book now T3T''
Looks like more coverage for Alodia XD

wow, that Miles guy has a really nice room!! OwO
(love the blanket and the colors lol. such a small room but so awesome)
oho? it seems a fujoshi got into the book? *w* (Amano's got Lamento and Togainu no chi figures, hehe. and Masamune-sama <3)

maybe you should make a book like this again when I have enough figures? haha xD

X'traordinary

I hope an "OTACOOL 2" is being discussed. I think many very cool/unique rooms people were maybe unsure of posting could be left out due to not knowing how "OTACOOL" would look. (I have a custom "Guildwars" border, cool handmade electronics, and dropped the ball on uploading it :'| )

Nice info about the rooms,The 1st one looks better cause they have a rare cast of "aliens'..better look at "alodia article too,nice human DD"..^|||^

Someone should tell Harada about Distortions in Colorado. If he wants Alien, they GOT Alien. The whole thing! Seen it myself. LOL, with that in your room, going to sleep will never be the same....again! (^~^;)

To cool mates, to cool.

I wish i had money to buy figures too ;A;

More impressive rooms, can't wait to see them all.

Some really terrific rooms in there! Love the colored lighting effect in Miles' room but also like the styling of Zac's room. Harada's Alien collection is impressive, though kind of frightening with those huge Alien heads and all...

Impressive rooms~ Nice one Alodia was in the Japanese paper too~ :)

Though i was inspired by Ai Amano's room~
I'm in for a neat room look now~
I want to concentrate on Strike Witches, MEcha Musume and Die cast planes in the coming times :)

Ok, it's official: if I can fill my room that's beyond posters, I must get my own place.

You've been great supporting me and will do my best to return the favor to profile you more and maybe bring you closer to any goals that you may have which involve your otaku hobbies.

wooott :D

Those are some great rooms!

Of those photos I think the alien room is the best. That dudes got it going on.

This is so awesome. :)

Haha! Holy crap that's me! I ordered two of these books from Hobby Search before the reservation cleared.

Can't wait for Otacool to come out! (^_^)

Wow... jawsome... sweet!

hey otaku in newspapre huh!!

I want to grab the book! ! :DD

Nice rooms. I see why they were choosen.

Great choices. Impressive rooms, jealous of all the stuff that are in them and so many more ways of saying wow these rooms are awesome :)

well...i'm not trying to bet into da mag...but i'd like to know how to upload photos...lolz...i know it's sounds stupid...but id like to share photos of my room and my growing figure collection...though it's not as big as the rooms featured....but been floating around this site...checking all the links...i'd like to return the favour to the veteran otskus for spurning me into figure collecting as a serious part of my hobby....wasn't really sure how to do it...there's link for uploading stuff...posting your feeds and all...i'd like some guidance please..newey i'd like to dan for creating this website and the figure.fm...i love chibis...and love nendroid series...hoping to collect more of them....just got myself a nendroid of nozomu itoshiki....to add to my mikumiku kagami...ren..light nendroids...hehehr

That Aliens room totally rocks. I love Aliens and I often buy Aliens comics. He even has Ripley and the cargo-loader :D The Alien Queen head, oh my. And some eggs on the table, ready for an alien omelet! What about those still boxed ones? He doesn't need them, does he? I don't like the framed picture thou. Its kinda kitsch. I bet he gets a lot of nightmares sleeping in that room o.O Face buggers, drones, queens, eggs... Ripley! Haha.

alien room--> nice. room of horror.

*sigh* time to redo the room nao~
