Did people ever give you some kind of weird expressions when they heard that you are an Otaku?
Most of the people even don't know the meaning of Otaku..let me tell you what Otaku means, it means Anime Addicted person and I am proud to be an Otaku. For an Otaku animes are life and one cannot survive without them.

But people don't understand us they sees us as if we are some kind of an alien..no we are human just like you but we have certain hobbies and one of them is watching animes which make us different for many other people out there, we are not living a life as a boring person, we do so much fun with animes for e.g: when we are sad, we watch anime which makes us happy like fairytail; so much comedian mages were there omg! When we are happy, we watch some powerful anime like dragon ballz, when we have a fight with friends we watch Orange, when we want to be emotional, we watch fullmetal alchemist, when we want some bloody and torture anime we watch tokyo ghoul, when we want to imagine that how it is like to be in love we watch kimi no todoke or aao haru ride, when we want to see handsome guys we watch kamisama hajimemashita or maid sama, when we want to see beautiful girls we watch chihaya furu or shirayuki hime, when we are in a mood to watch horror anime, we watch another, when we want to encourage ourself for not giving up, we watch food wars, when we want a mystery one, we watch hyouka. In short we have animes of every genre and we watch animes in every situation.

When a good anime ends, we feel like our life end with it, we wander so sad all day here and there thinking what to do with our life then we found another good anime and the cycle goes on. But the problem is how we tell these things to other people they never understand our passion for animes. Now a days im watching an anime 3D girl in which the boy is going through the same phase and he has not have any friends because he is an otaku so he stop explaining himself, I'll do the same thing.
