jeff goldblum fan made a comment about my use of weeboo in a way to describe everybody i thought negative conjurations. ie dick sitting in the manga section in the middle of every bodies way.(i think he mad because he might be one)so here some defs on what i think is the differences between the freaks
Otaku
is a Japanese term used to refer to people with obsessive interests, particularly anime, manga, or video games.Otaku has multiple meanings. Casual anime fans use this word in the context of being a well established fan who knows much about anime and manga. Japanese see this term as derogatory which represents a person who is a lifeless nerd. Weeboos see this as derogatory given their strong belief that because they watched some anime that all the sudden they are japanese.
This is a high-context word, in the american dialect, given the type of people using the word and the context of the discussion this OTAKU could mean expert or geek, complementary or derogatory.
Weeboo
There is a difference between watching anime and being Weeboo.
An anime watcher does just that, he watches anime.
The weeboo watch anime and will think they were born and raised in Japan.
An anime watcher may use a quote now an then from an anime he likes.
The weeboo will try to learn Japanese, but not the correct way, from watching anime. They'll only learn a few words and use them with English, using what is called Japanglish.
An anime watcher will watch what he can on television or maybe buy a video or DVD.
The weeboo will buy untranslated anime and translate them horribly. They will proceed to gripe and complain that their hacked up garbage is better than anything ever made.
An anime watcher will do nothing else.
Due to a chemical imbalance in their heads, the weeboo will denounce their country, stalk Asian girls, eat nothing but Asian food, grow disgustingly huge and/or pale, live in their parents house until they are 30 or older, and generally be annoyances for the rest of their lives or until they snap out of it, which usually happens around 9th or 10th grade.

Otaku are Japanese, Weaboos are Wapanese. Yes, that means that none of you can ever be an Otaku.otaku is just a phase for the sub culture of anime and manga that was no national boundaries, wapanese are white acting like their japanese.,

An "Otaku" is just a term that refers to a nerd/geek and is not something that is limited or particularly referring to anime or manga, that is just something that weaboos believe. So you can actually say that "weaboos are white people acting like they're japanese" is the same as "white people saying they're otakus".

Being Otaku is not an Honor nor a badge to wear proudly. It is an Insult and it deems you as to having no Life and Never leaving your house.... Otaku is and Honorific word for "Home", Meaning you do not know what the Sun is....
Weeabo's are just dumb... They watch a Few anime's and decide they know Japanese... They go around in real life Putting Japanese words into sentences,or, Just randomly saying them... It's annoying...
I am an Anime Fan, I love Manga, and also Play video games... I am a Baseball Pitcher with a broken shoulder. I am Rehabbing it and learning to switch my dominant arm... I Get confused as an OTAKU all the time... and its annoying... I don't see why people would be proud of Either Of those Titles....

Well, that's one way of putting it... But otaku is simply a term for nerd. Would you be just as annoyed if someone called you that?

A Hikikomori isn't necessarily an otaku either. Just that having an obsessive interest for an indoor activity would often lead to being a hikikomori.
