/jp/ - Otaku Culture

You just gradually spend money normally on yourself instead of a 3DPD, kids etc.

2 88-key pianos, that's pretty neat

>>11841374
The cost is measured not in dollars but in the opportunity cost of not having a life

I'm thinking $4000 minimum, probably way more. You spend $20 here, $100 there and it adds up really quickly.

But considering that it provides ironclad protection from ever losing your virginity, it's a very good value

>>11842049
>having a life

What does that even mean?

>>11842034
Looks like cheap shit. Probably $500 max between the two of them.

>>11842049
you mean having a social life right?

>>11842122
Yeah, way more. The dolls in the back themselves are probably worth $4000. They're dollfies, right? They're expensive as fuck.
Figures? Easily $100 a piece. I think the Haruhi bunny girls are worth a bit more than that, since they have a larger scale.

That room is expensive as fuck.

very expensive

>feelio when vandwelling neet

>>11842242
It means living the life considered ideal by the average person. This life usually consists of having numerous friends, a significant other, and a decent job. These things usually cannot be attained if you spend all of your money on imported collectibles because is it thought that once you begin collecting you will slowly lose yourself to the hobby and become less and less desirable to others. Of course there are plenty of people who can indulge in their hobby and still maintain a healthy appearance but the stereotype of the man who collects foreign figurines is that of a greasy monster made of ham.

>>11841374
This room you posted is very expensive, mostly because of the dolls and the instruments, but I personally think it's possible to have a really nice-looking "Otaku Room" without spending that much money. But of course it depends on what sort of stuff you want in the first place.

anywhere between 100 and 1400 otaku bux

>>11841374

The guitar is ~$400, the amp is around ~$200, the dolls are ~$4,000, keyboards are ~$600 together

add it together faggots

At least the guy isn't an absolute loser, he knows how to play at least two instruments by the look of it.

/jp/ is a bully-free zone! Please don't bully!

>>11842553
The original post in the bully post, kill yourself.

Your dignity and self respect.

>>11842533
It truly is.

>>11842567
Those are cheaper than plastic, make for worse company than a daki, and are nowhere near as expressive of my identity as the room in the OP would be.

It's an easy trade.

>>11842533
>Sailor moon is the best.
I still remember masturbating to Sailor Moon panchira when I was a kid

>>11842567
I lost that years ago

We have something in common, you and I.

Why was that post deleted, I wonder?

>>11842579
>We have something in common, you and I.
Our early lust for 240p reruns of girly cartoons or our deficit of dignity and/or self-respect?

>>11842586
"Something" may denote an area of commonality, and not only a singular item. At least I'd argue so.

In other words: can't it be both?

>>11841374
I don't think I could NEET in peace while living in that room, it's such a cluster fuck.

whoa, is this a Sailor Moon thread now?


I'm a Sailor Moon secondary. I fapped to Jupiter.

>>11842613
"or" isn't necessarily an exclusive or.

>>11842626
Sailormoon is love.
Love conquers all.
Ergo, Sailormoon conquers all.

Or at least, it filled that role for kids my age alongside FFVII and Inuyasha

>>11842669

How did /jp/'s H viewing habits evolve over the years?

Dubbed reruns on TV > Newgrounds flash games > Various Hentai shrines > /e/, /h/, /a/, 420chan, etc > exhentai, pixiv

>>11842685
Don't forget kazaa

>>11842688
Didn't bother downloading videos or anything really, I was a horny 15 year-old and Newgrounds provided me with near-instantaneous satisfaction.

>>11842697
So you weren't old enough when kazaa was around.

>>11841374
Why do people turn their rooms in these cluttered nightmares?

My figure collection is cleanly lined up in 3 IKEA Detolfs. Besides that, a few wall scrolls and plexiglass frames of Reimu. That's all I needed for my room.

>>11842698
What? How does that make sense

>>11842717
Nice, I like it. What's the deck for?

>>11842717
Are your cards double sleeved?
I find when I use those sleeves they have a tendency to split, which annoys me because they come in packs of exactly 60.

>>11842717
how to the fuck do you use your keyboard?

>>11842717
Clutter is comfy broseph

>>11842249
pls.

the left keyboard is a Yamaha DGX 620/630 which went new at around $1k and up.

i can't ID the digital piano on the right from the photo, but assuming the guy is a Yamaha fanboy, even their entry level stuff retails for around $500 and up, last I checked.

If you bought them when they were new, you'd easily spend $1.5k on those sets of keys alone.

I wonder what it feels like to have a new, shiny piano/keyboard.

I got my Kurzweil PC88 for 150 $ and it's pretty battered.

It costs as much as you let it cost

I am at the age where it is too late to change my life and maybe get a GF, so I'm just considering dropping like 5k and anime shit and making the ultimate comfy NEET paradise.

>>11842809
I wish I was as cool as you. There is no sarcasm intended, nice guns. Where's Marisa's hat?

>>11842820

sounds awesome, keep us posted.

>>11842824
I have it just takes up a whole lot of space when she's wearing it.

>>11842820
I have to know, what is with people and their fixation of getting a gf? Maybe I don't understand anymore since I've done it before but it's an overrated experience. Nice for a year or two then it goes down hill from there. I wouldn't say I regret it but I kind of wish I spent that time playing video games instead.

Do people really want to give their personal life up just for that year or two?

>>11842845
He's a normal person, don't mind him. They don't care for the culture and just find something to latch onto to forget their problems.

>>11842845
You experienced it so we will never be able to understand each other.

When you are a 30 year old man who has never kissed a girl you are mentally so far behind all of your peers that you will never understand or be understood by humanity. Destined to walk alone feared and pitied by all you come across. I can't even look my mother in the eyes anymore, all she wanted was a grandchild but I stay at home every night wanking it to cartoons.

>>11842854
>>>/r9k/

>>11842845
I've spent twenty thousand hours playing video games, and nineteen thousand nine hundred of them I wish I had spent doing something else.

>>11842749
Who are you quoting, onii-san?

>>11842717
Because you are obviously not an Otaku. You are some shit tier /v/ tier weaboo that thinks owning 2 or 3 entry level figures make them "otaku". You fucking aren't. You are just some sperg ass kid that tries to blend in with the "I love my 2D waifu" crowd just because your High School crush turned you down for prom or some shit.
If anyone considers being Otaku a shame you should be the bane of humanity or some shit.
You also buy Razer which is basically cancer in peripheral form.
I wish I could sage your ass back to /v/ hard enough to actually make you leave.

>>11842897
>Otaku
Heh, not that guy but can you read?

>>11842908
Read the OP post and try again.

>>11842897
Are you saying that an Otaku room must be cluttered? Are you retarded?

>>11842914
Yes it must be. It's a core point.

Otaku is not about buying merch.

>>11842911
What about it? He doesn't like living in a mess, and he has a collection that is organized.

>>11842916
Weeb, you can't be Otaku unless you're japanese.

>>11842897
>blend in with the "I love my 2D waifu" crowd
People unironically do that? Can't you see that it's an ironic thing through and through?

>>11842928
Can't you see that it's an ironic thing through and through?
Even easier to blend in, no?

>>11842897
>If anyone considers being Otaku a shame
You see, I don't really know where I should stand on this. Not him, by the way.
I'd consider myself an Otaku Culture Enthusiast, but Japanese people tell me that Otaku is not a good thing to self-identify with.

My hobbies include VN, eroge, Touhou, anime, etc. and that's all that really matters to me. I don't really care to label myself with anything.

>>11842916
Nope, most of these hoarder type otaku rooms are simply people running out of space or being too lazy to organize stuff. There is no excuse. A clean organized collection is more appealing to both outsiders and the person residing inside the room.

>>11842953
Good for you. You a re a normal through and through experiencing the weeb phase. You'll grow out of it just like any other phase of your life (ie metal phase, edgy phase, and so on)

>>11842961

stats on the guns?

>>11842986

>>11843006
Yeah I'm still in the air force.

Stag arms Model 8TL with plus package, diamondhead flip up sights, CTR stock, MOE grip, and it's got an EOtech 517 on it now,

Remington 870 12ga with magpul forehrip

FNS-9 with night sights

>>11842698

I remember looking for porn on kazaa backinnaday and found la blue girl clips randomly.

and thus my fetish for futa began

>>11843022
Hope that 870 is older model and doesn't rust up on you! I'll have to pick up some fumos one of these days to contribute to the plushes with guns pics that I like to collect so much.

>>11843094
Cute Youmu, dude. She trying to shoot a ghost?

>Maybe he doesn't like photography as a hobby.
A shame, given that he owns so many fumos. Even an active service member should have enough time to pose his treasured fumos and go on exquisite tours in the countryside, no?

It only stands for "otaku culture" on the surface level. Everyone knows /jp/ is hardcore underground 2hu dealings.

>>11843440
As much as I love incest, that ain't gonna fly. When you get that close to a person, you can't see them as a romantic/sexual interest.

She's into incest stuff too, believe it or not. We talk about how our cousins might be fucking. Actually, considering what we do talk about, I'm surprised it hasn't gotten sexual like some eromanga, but that's the way it goes.

>>11843454
Really? You can't even imagine slowly slipping into her room and sneaking up on her as she's bent over, reaching for something on a bookshelf or in a drawer, her bottom displaying itself to you in a pair of tight white cotton panties?

You can't fantasize about how her initial surprise and frustration would quickly give way to playfulness and, eventually, tender love and bashful lust as she realizes that the intentions you share for her match those she shares for you?

You don't want to dream about how you would look into each others' eyes for what would seem like an eternity before, without warning, you press up against her body and embrace her in sudden kiss? A slow and hesitant first kiss, as you break for a moment, unsure about what you're doing is the right thing? Before you throw reason and caution to the wind and take each other fully, wildly and ravenously kissing and necking as you run your hands up her soft, smooth thighs?

>>11843488

Mirai Nikki was mediocre and the fact that you use a character from that series proclaiming it to be better than anything else is laughable.
Please stop.

>>11843490
Haha owned.

>>11843482
Fug off with the shitty Mirai Nikki images. Get some classy reaction images in here please.

>>11843488
Well, now you got me all hot and bothered. She comes into my room when I'm changing and shit. Still, flesh and blood is a different matter. It doesn't have the magic of fantasy.

>>11843491
While it was a mediocre, to base attraction on quality of the series is to miss the point. I can't help who I love, anon. I love Hidamari sketch too, just not that Yuno.

>>11843513
Do you have to block out the thought of how she would start as your fingers gently brushed against her clit, still shielded by her now-soaked panties. How she would break off from you and get up, taking you by the hand and leading you onto the bed? How you would slide her dripping underwear down her legs after she confesses that she has always fantasized of you making graceful love to her on this very bed?

I refuse to accept that you do not enjoy the thought of running your fingers up and down her lips, flicking the clit before finally sliding them inside her? How her breath would quicken? How she would moan and gasp with every stroke of your finger inside her?

Don't you obsess over how this would continue until your beloved sister couldn't take it anymore? How she would beg for your cock, how she would demand that you stick it in without delay? Fool! Only a fool could reject the thought of slipping it inside his gorgeous, blushing sister. Imagine taking each other! Imagine embracing your sister as you embrace each other, your hips taking control as you passionately thrust in and out of her! Can you hear her moans and screams of passion, anon?! Can you hear how she would cry out her love, her undying love for you, as you both come together in spasms, enjoined in a final kiss as you shoot load after load of your seed into her womb?

>>11843513
I've found that lolis tend to have a much more special feeling to them than older girls. They definitely retain the "magical" feeling you seem to be missing. I can't really compare the two because I've never interacted with women my age or older, but I have interacted with lots and lots of lolis. It's just plain exciting and fun to be around them. They're cute, they giggle a lot, they give you hugs and cuddles, don't act overly lewd, and make you feel really good.

I can't see older girls doing much of that.

>>11843528
you can think that shit all you want, but it's not going to get you aroused, because of familiarity.

it's like being married since forever.

>>11843528

Indeed. I'm getting aroused, but only because I'm imagining an archetypal "imouto-type" character.

>>11843529
The ones I've been with are kind of dumb and not very interesting. Hanging out with them for a while is fine, and if I don't have to actually take care of them, all the better. But actually taking good care of one is not very fun at all.
