/jp/ - Otaku Culture

[Arcueid Brunestud !ARCIkc4cG6 No.]

I just came back from a game shop where no less than four people - count 'em, four - were playing Undefined Fantastic Object on computers. In public.

There were about ten computers on the lan there and all of them had the full Touhou series along with MegaMari, PATCHUCON, and Master Burner.

I went to go play starcraft with a friend of mine and I raged my eyes out of my skull upon seeing the ENTIRE FUCKING COLLECTION right there.
And the guys playing? Entirely normal seeming guys you'd expect to see walking on the street. One dude had a shaved head and was wearing a wifebeater to show off his tanned body.

I told you this would happen. Touhou is like a virus. All you need is for one to get in and it starts spreading and replicating. You see how much Reitaisai grows ever year. Soon it will be big enough to swallow Comiket. Big enough to swallow Japan. Pretty soon Touhou will have consumed everything. Even America is not safe.

Touhou isn't really recognizable as weeaboo, at least not the games. Most people would just see it as a shooter with pretty bullet patterns and ugly art. If they were all gathered around the computers fapping to Touhou h-doujins I could see your point, but I don't really see it here.

Perhaps.

It was in Japanese, untranslated. All the Japanese characters are a dead giveaway. Also, I already was listening to people talk about the "japanese danmaku game" while they watched these dudes play. That does not sound like a public ignorant to such things.

You might be right, though. Hopefully.

I'll agree with the other people posting in this thread and ask once more; what's the big deal? Touhou isn't exactly the hardest thing to discover on Internet nowadays.
And, if anything, they could have been shmup fans. Can you blame them for liking Touhou? As far as I'm concerned, people who just bring the games in public are FAR, FAR better than the retarded weeaboos who obsess over IOSYS videos featuring Cirno and go BAKA BAKA XD apeshit as often as they can. That's right, and I'll use your terminology here, the people you saw on the lan can very well be called primaryfags

Counter-Strike Source.

There was not a single other shmup on them. Just the Touhou Project series.

Also, people seem to be conveniently ignoring that there were doujin games there as well. Patchucon and Master Burner aren't nearly as well known, after all.

I just came back from a pasta shop where no less than four japanese birds - count 'em, four - were cooking spaghetti. In public.

There were about ten pots on the stove there and all of them had the full spaghetti series along with Penne Rigate, Lasagne, and Tortellini.

I went to go cook spaghetti with a korean bird of mine and I raged my eyes out of my skull upon seeing the ENTIRE FUCKING COLLECTION right there.
And the birds cooking? Entirely normal seeming japanese birds you'd expect to see sitting on a branch. One bird had a shaved head and was wearing nothing to show off his colorful feathers.

all my friends know Touhou, even non-weeaboo ones. It's really not as small as you imagine. I even had this buff guy back in high school who knows nothing about anime at all, just your average sports fan come up and see me during my lunch hour and say "oh man is that Touhou? My brother plays those games."

People who cover their e-peen just to extend it online are fags. I know a lot of people like that IRL, and coincidently this is true of them. "I am not a weeaboo but I am a critic on anime and mange as well as general anime goods" "You fail horribly if you even let a single person sight your interests in public" all complete bullshit.

Dude.

Dude, one time I was at the gym, alright? I told /jp/ about this before a long time ago, but I'll tell it again.

I was about to bench press some weight, just getting myself comfortable under the bar. While lying back like that I could hear two guys talking to each other, a pair of run-of-the-mill bros in way too tight vests, spiked hair, and pockmarks in their skin/blown veins from steroid use.

Bro 1 starts talking to the other about this new computer game he was playing. Bro 2 asks what it's about, and Bro 1 says it has little girls shooting laser beams at each other.

I almost drop 160 pounds on my chest. So, like any good /jp/er, I re-racked the weight and listened further. I was praying that he had been talking about something else, but then Bro 1 mentions frilly dresses.

Bro 2 asks if they're hot. Bro 1 says he doesn't know.

I was deeply bothered by this throughout my entire workout.

So I believe you.

Only weeaboo experience I had in RL was having a co-worker just walk up to me and bluntly ask "do you watch anime", followed by the names of a few series to see what my tastes were like. After that, he told me how awesome One Piece was and how he was watching it on YouTube. He also told me he browsed /b/ and probably /a/ too. He used memes in real life. It was annoying.

One day I have been to Yoshinoya in the neighborhood,Yoshinoya.
So many people were there that I couldn't sit on the chair .
Then, I looked at the banner well,it was written " 150 yen discounted "
Are you fool?
Or are you poor?
Hey boy !
Don't come to Yoshinoya you don't usually come in because of 150 yen discounted.
How silly you are!
It's just 150 yen discounted and it is 150 yen!
There are some families. 4 persons, all of the family, come to Yoshinoya?
Hahaha,,it's so funny.
The father said "Well, I shall order Tokumori".
This situation looked ugly and poverty.
Oh boy !
They must leave the seat because I give them 150 yen.
It should be bloodier.
Is it not strange that I and one who sat opposite side of U type table start fighting.
It is cool that situation I will kill him or I will be killed by him.
Girls and kids should keep away.
Well, as soon as I had sat barely, a man who had sat beside me said "I want Tokumori Tsuyu-daku"
So I gotta angry again.
"Hey boy ! With too much sauce is not popular now."
He was stupid to say "Tsuyu-daku" with the happiest simle.
I wanted to ask him "Do you really want to eat it ?", and to question colosely, and to interrogate for about one hour.
I thought him just wanted to say "with too much sauce".
A specialist of Yoshinoya, I'd like to say that the finest order is "Negi-daku".
That is the coolest. "Omori Negi-daku with a fresh egg " it is the most popular style of us, the cult of Yoshinoya.
Negi-daku is full with much onion.
Instead of that it's with mere beef.
This is so good.
And it with a fresh egg.
This is the best.
However there is an accident you will be on the staffs' mark next time,if you order one.
It is a sword which has sevral blades.
It is not recommendable for the laymen.
You, poor laymen, had better eat regular meal with beef and salmon.

When I was still taking karate, there was a guy there who watched Neon Genesis Evangelion and thought it sucked.

He also thought Naruto was funny and a blast to watch.

I enjoyed punching him in the gut and kicking his sides. In fact, I made it my duty to beat him up as often as possible. He used to rough me up just as bad most of the time, because he was an amateur boxer and had competed quite a few times. So he was fairly good even though he was new like me.

I've always dealt with crushing depression, unrestrainable anger, and self-loathing[which shows very obviously in my Grim'n'dark outlook on almost everything, my ideas, thoughts, and so on], and bud helped to amplify it.

The funny thing is that weed also helps me to chill the fuck out, or at least detach me from the real world long enough so that I can deal with things. It also increases my appreciation for good things.

Pretty sweet blog post, let me contribute.

So I just got back from trying to sleep. Obviously I couldn't sleep because last night I had masturbated myself senseless and passed out for fifteen hours, making sleep physically impossible for me now. So anyways, I started playing the Touhou Bomberman game and, surprise surprise, I blow dicks at it. So after losing to hard-mode CPUs, I had an amazing insight. What if someone made a Touhou game, but replaced all the characters with Bombermen? Instead of regular bullet patterns, bosses shoot bombs which explode into tons of other bullets. In order to hurt bosses, you would have to kick their bombs back at them and do bomb chain-explosions.

Oh yeah, and I beat up some faggot in my MMA class because he said that the Scarlet Devil Mansion was the superior cast of Touhou characters.
