Interested in Otaku Culture? Did you know in Japan, there is even an exam called the National Unified Otaku Certification Test to test how much of an otaku you are?
In modern Japanese slang, an otaku refers to an overtly obsessive fan of any one particular theme, topic, or hobby. Common types of otaku include those obsessed with anime, manga, action figures, video games, trains, personal computers and bikini models/idols
Fuji TV aired an otaku drama called “Train Man” last year which was a love story about a geek who meets a beautiful woman on the train. The popularity and positive portayal of the main character helped to reduce negative stereotypes about otaku, and increased the acceptability of some otaku hobbies. A comedic spinoff character of that series is the hilarious Akiba Kanpe
