IS OTAKU AND ANIMERS (ANIME LOVERS) IS BASICALLY THE SAME?? OR NOT?? IM FIGHTING WITH MY FRIEND SO HELP! IT WOULD VERY HELPFUL IF YOU SAY IT WITH DETAIL
no i don’t think they are, since otaku means (according to google) “ a young person who is obsessed with computers or particular aspects of popular culture to the detriment of their social skills.” and animers are just ppl who love anime reply
No cause otaku refers to someone who's obsessed with something. It doesnt have to be anime, can be games, computers, idols, robots, you name it. Animers even tho i have never heard of that term before but It's obvious it's exclusively about anime. So yeah, they're completely different reply
Originally, no, the word Otaku was a bad term for someone who is basically a hermit who lives and breathes things like electronics, comics, movies, anime, etc. In Japan the word still has a bad connotation and most people will frown upon you if you describe yourself as an otaku. I know in the west now otaku usually just means a big anime fan. reply
There's no word animers we don't use that. Otaku is a japanese word means having an obsession with certain cultures like anime, cars, fishing, manga etc. and also having poor social skills it was perceived as a negative word BUT ofc times change and with exposure globally to english speakers the term OTAKU changes and it can describe to people with...... reply
oh ur talkin ab manga vs anime. no their not the same lol, although their both weebs so yes in that way yes they are. i'm not gonna go into detail how manga lovers and how anime lovers are different (it should be clear by now) either that or look up convos ab it reply
In Gintama when Hijikata gets possessed, anime and manga addicts were both called Otaku. I figure the author, Soriachi, probably knows, but don't go by me, get a real authority to answer. LOL reply
