/jp/ - Otaku Culture

I don't go around speaking in japanese and saying I LOVE TOUHOU AND VNS but if someone were to enter my room they'd know.

>friends and family

Family? Last time I saw them was 3 years ago. Friends? What's that?

And now I'm depressed...

As far as they know, I'm obsessed with StarCraft.

Which isn't incorrect, but they know nothing of Touhou.

>friends
Don't have any.

>family
They live in another country.

I don't have to hide it at all, since i dont go putting posters up and buy dakimakuras since they aren't of my taste, and my dad really just leaves me alone so he doesn't even know what my hobbies are.

And by "power level" you mean having hard drive full of pirated VNs and doujin games. Shoudn't be too hard not to speak about contents of your HDD.

>>6870495
for every sage, a bump

Once my friend's cousin watched me play Soku.

Now he has 115 videos on youtube that use a spanish-equivalent of Microsoft Sam to narrate his Touhou fanfics.

Go back to /a/v/b/

My roommate is a NEET Lolicon, so no.

I still live with my parents, and they've seen a few of my figures. I keep my dakimakura under my comforter when I'm not in the room, and keep my door locked. No one uses my laptop, so they cant find my stuff anyways. I'm more worried about them catching me playing my console games. Galgun demo is out on Xbox marketplace tomorrow if anyone else has been desperately waiting for it.

Father watches anime with me every once in a while.

Mom doesn't know about it.

And I have no friends.

Well Im not the only one of my friends that plays Touhou and watches anime, so not really. Also awhile back my dad watched Ghost in the Shell with me. But they dont know about anything other then the really mainstream stuff that wont get looked at funny. As for random people that I dont know, I hide it like a birth defect.

>>6870546
NO

>>6870594

I watched Ranma 1/2 with my parents and siblings years ago

We all enjoyed it :3

Is playing Touhou something to be ashamed of? To 1CC a Touhou game on any level but Easy is an achievement.

My family knows I occassionally watch anime, and don't care. Probably because I don't let my life revolve around it. As for friends, I have none.

I can understand it must be wiser for the people reading porn with plot to hide it from everyone than for the people playing a shooting game.

Friends are at university, they don't want anything to do with me
Family I see every day, I wish I didn't. If I had my own place I'd be able to buy dolls and Dakimakura

Any /jp/ anons want to hang out for a day or something? I'm in the UK midlands, I can take the train anywhere.. Just to have someone to talk to I guess.

Then those aren't your friends.

>>6870637
We're all talking right now smegmapie, I dont want you shitting up my home either.

>>6870635
What the fuck is wrong with you?

Can this be a neet/hikki general?
I haven't brushed my teeth in about 3 weeks, I wake up saying I will but I keep putting it off. I'm worried that I should either do it constantly or never.

>>6870650

Go back to /a/ homo.

I bet you are the same retard that made that "u rage u loose xD" thread

Mostly no. If it's stuff like watching cartoons and playing SFW VNs and the like, there's really no point in hiding it since it's harmless. I, however, don't hanging up my posters though since that'd be weird and since i don't like posters as a decorations. Weird how? The posters that I have are just too bright and would clash with the rest of the room (e.g. one of the Kudo Halloween posters). But yeah, just the doing, they don't care. I just don't do anything that'd look silly and would be against reason.

Oh, for the erotic stuff, that's just like everything erotic for normal people. You keep that to yourself! Well, at least I don't ever see anyone else bragging about their porn stash.

>>6870485
Nope, because if my friends weren't cool with it, I wouldn't call them friends.

I don't have any friends and have not in nearly a decade.

My family I hide it from, though I've watched some anime with my sister a few times. She's fairly otaku in her own right, but more to video games and RPGS than anime and touhou.

>>6870655
I didn't make either of these threads but "power level" is fucking old and /jp/ has always used it

>>6870662

This an /a/ level thread, get out.

>>6870666
You sound asspained enough to be from /a/.

My little brother saw me playing Touhou a few times. I think his favorite is Utsuho.

I just don't watch MLP:FiM when/if they come over to visit.

My order of this has shipped from Play Asia since yesterday, shouldn't take long to arrive. I've heard from people who've played it that is is actually a lot of fun.

I don't hide my powerlevels. I don't care anymore.

>>6870678
Your brother is on a good path.

partially, I only hide anime-related things and my weaboo music.

My sister saw me play touhou once, She liked it but she isn't very good at it, and she tends to make claims that I 'increase the difficulty when she plays' because she dies a lot more than me. I once cleared IN Extra stage at college in an IT class and since we were in sixth form the class decided to watch (the teacher was a bro and didn't care). They thought the game was difficult and added "you have way too much time on your hands" because I could complete it.

Why the fuck is the class watching you play? That's disgusting.

>>6870826
It's called being the man. A betafag like you wouldn't understand.

Around family yes.

Around a couple of my friends, no.

>>6870842
>betafag
Go back to /r9... oh, wait.

This was me at school the other day, but with my laptop.

I just wanted to read in peace, away from prying eyes...

>>6870842
Your normalfaggotry is not welcome here.

I am a diagnosed psychopath and watching worms like you think that mingling with other filth makes you "superior" is hilarious.

must be nice to still not realize how little people care about your hobbies.

I play PoFV with my friends sometimes.

My dad watches more anime than I do, probably.

>>6870892
Psychopaths sure are silly!

I personally don't hide my power level around my immediate family, I don't really care what my parents or siblings think and I know they only care about me being happy.

As for friends, I don't hide my power level around my close friends, but I keep knowledge of it to a minimum with people who I know from classes or other mutually beneficial relationships I don't really count as "friends".

And of course my girlfriend knows everything about all of my hobbies. I don't hold any waifus above her though.

I've got a few figs, and nearly every graphical aspect of my computer has been customized with a picture of the only girl for me, but that's it.

My mother pops in occasionally to use my computer, and if she gives a shit, she's made no indication to me.

Other than that, I've got no one to possibly hide myself from.

>>6870930
>girlfriend
Was with you until there.

Are you kidding I hide my power level from myself sometimes. My closest friends are big anime fags and I give them shit about it, then go home and I'm like UWAAA CORE DURIIIRU while listening to shitty jpop, I have deceived them for years.

>>6871114
I kinda used to be like that, it's much nicer to be able to speak openly to friends.

Family:sure. Not like they're close enough to me for it to ever come up, anyway.

Friends: well, I only have one who's been my best friend since 3rd grade so he really doesn't give a fuck.

The few people once associated with have always known I'm into cute little 2D girls.

I dunno how they will look at me now.

I don't hide it to my family
friends? I had one but now, I don't

My family has no idea but i have played touhou in class a few times.

Not really. They don't care what I do as long as it isn't physically endangering and doesn't require any effort on their part.

I don't hide my hobbies from people I know. What really ruins my relationships with others is not what I do, but who I am!

Why would I?

I don't care that my family knows I like anime. I only have a couple of figurines so that isn't an issue either. What is an issue is my dakimakura. I am not going to let them know about her. I feel guilty about hiding her though ;_;
I did get my older brother into anime. He only watched stuff on Adult Swim for a few years. I am currently trying to get him into other stuff.

Friends? I don't really remember what it is like having any. I haven't had any for about ten years now.

Of course, the kind of people who don't are real faggots, let me tell you.

my family knows i have an interest in japanrelated stuff
my friends share pretty much the same interests
i think only 1 of my friends is onto my loli obsession. other then that im just a weird person to everyone else

I've been playing games since I was 4 and I'm 24 now, bit hard to hide such a thing. The figures don't seem to bother her either, she even helped me look for figure cabinets on eBay last year.

>>6870485

First of all, I don't have a 'power level', and secondly, my family lives thousands of miles from me.

People know I play Touhou. The friends I have who have heard of it, though, only know it from IOSYS videos, and the rest just go "oh huh it's that game you play with the bullets and the dodging".

What friends?

Played Touhou in front of my roommates and their friends (to be fair, they walked in on ME).

They now think I'm some kind of mechanical math supergod.
The punchline? I'm actually pretty shit at Touhou -- I can't manage to 1CC MoF.

>>6871921
My sister once walked in on me playing Touhou. The conversation went something like this
>What are you playing?
>Er.. Some shit you've probably never heard of
>Oh, well, what genre is it?
>Er..... Some shit you've probably never heard of

>>6871955
If you know anything about gaming you know what a shoot 'em up is.

I used to hide all my anime, touhou games, figures, ect when i lived at home. Friends, they know about my figures and that I play touhou. They refuse to play though. All of them are either "touhou is not hardcore enoufs for my CoD skills" or just suck at games in general. One friend, i noticed he had bad apple on his mp3 player, yet he didn't know what touhou is, thought it was an anime. Also the only anime they watch is shit bleach and believe that anything that is not menly men fighting is gay. I hate them all.

>>6871962
I'm >>6871921
My roommates and their friends didn't know what I meant by "shoot 'em up," or "top-down shooter."
>"Shooter? Oh, you mean like Modern Warfare?"

Also, they decided to call Touhou "Anime Galaga"

>>6871971
That happens when you are all in the 12-16 age group.

>>6871989
happens in the 17-24 age group too.

>>6871962
Her knowledge of games is more or less limited to her owning a DS and having a boyfriend who plays some normalfag games. Besides, shoot 'em ups is definitely a niche genre now, so there's really no reason to assume someone would know about it unless they were active gamers in the arcade age, or they made an active effort to study the history of gaming.

>>6872015
That's why I only associate with 40-60 year olds.

>>6871981

>>6871981
>Galaga
They know what this game is, but don't realize it's a shooter?

>>6872041
Yep. They know the game, but they don't know the genre. They also knew of Geometry Wars.
Just never made the connection, it seems.

>>6871094
It's too be expected, posting in /jp/ and all.

Heh, I should formally introduce my girlfriend to the touhou, see if she would get into some aspect of it.

She'd probably like Alstroemeria's Bad Apple!!. Thanks for the idea, /jp/.
