What do your parents says about your anime collectibles?

My mother thinks I'm gay because she says dolls are for girls and not for men. No matter what I tell her she can't accept the fact I'm married with dolls and not reals women.

How do you persuade your parents to not think you're a society reject?

Also post more new upcoming figs, I WANT this Kotomi doll so much...

They pretty much accepted my hobby years ago, though to reach the room of my sister, one has to go through my room first. That's probably the reason why she always bitches when bringing friends over. "He, so your brother likes this manga stuff? Sounds gay."

I've also told my parents that I have no interest in any real girl. Also accepted that besides my sister. "lol, someday even you will have a girlfriend lol" Oh no, if you would know...

tl;dr:
Parents accepted my interests, sister is fucking nuts.

Because this was 4chan's original demographic. By and large /jp/sies are largely from nightshift /a/ and have been on 4chan for quite some time. As many other anons have said countless times, there are plenty of people on /b/ to go to if you want to talk about 'picking up', and plenty of people on /trv/ if you want to talk about 'picking up' in Japan.

/jp/ is not for you basically. And if it makes you uncomfortable, then you'd be advised to leave.

>> No.438603

I don't like normalfags. I'll be honest, I think normal people are the cancer killing 4chan. Look at /b/'s front page, it's all 'my girlfriend' this and 'my girlfriend' that, it's nothing but posturing bravado in my eyes and it doesn't contribute to the overrall quality of a board. Want to know why night time /a/ and previously night time /v/ were remembered so fondly? Because most of the people on 4chan at 2:00am PST are not 'normal' considering societal definition, often abnormal people are the most creative though, they take out their abnormality in artistic ways. That's why so many of them are good at creative writing (look at how many famous authors have been abnormalfags). And I'm not talking serial killer abnormal or, or anyone who feels the need to identify with pathetic subcultures like emo or scene, I'm talking about people who are just quite cynical and have an understanding of the term 'dry wit'.

In short, normal people are boring - they talk about normal things, their normal life with their normal girlfriend at their normal school/college/workplace with their normal friends eating their normal food and retiring to their normal apartment/house. They aren't interesting. Take that horse head dude on Nico Nico, he's clearly as abnormal as they come, yet he's absolutely hilarious as a result. The world would be fucking BORING without people like that. Basically, /b/'s content these days is normal people dealing with normal things in a normal way ('hey /b/, i fucked such and such a girl, but X problem happened, what do I do?') Tell me honestly, is that as hilarious as hearing anons give serious advice on how to jerk off over sleeping girls? Or hearing someone recount an genuine incest story? Fuck no.

Don't take this in an offensive way, I just don't want the normalfags spreading to other boards. Let's keep /jp/ abnormal.

Gotta agree with the other anon who said that normal people are boring, seriously, their common lives are so...tasteless, I see nothing great about it, maybe I've watched way too much anime but I really don't like the idea of having a common life. And I don't own anything related to anime but 2 action figures I bought like, 10 years ago. However I still an very interested in anime and japanese stuff, but I hide my power levels too.

And again about "social rejects", what's up with 4chan and "strange" people, I'm not normal either, so I keep thinking, what makes 4chan atract so many strange people? We feel somewhat at home here. Free to be ourselves. Well not so free (trolls...) but still...

I understand your sentiments, but I honestly don't like 3D women enough to put in the effort of courting them. It's not like I'm destroying my livelihood in the name of animu and eroge like many people here, I merely like the 2D aesthetic far more than anything real life can provide. I mostly go to social functions because I'm looking forward to a life in law then politics, so I need to be able to keep a social facade without breaking under pressure.

I don't have too many figures, but with the expensive display cases they do get your attention quite easily in my apartment. Most of my stuff is Gundam kits.

I never heard my mom comment on it, but she's quite impressed by the cosplay I do so I guess the figs don't bother her.
My dad is dead now but 2 years prior to his death he tried to get to know me more so he attended some conventions with me. He even added a Sakura Taisen poster to his office.

The worst thing however is that my whole family thinks I'm a total weeaboo. I mean, I am, to some degree. But everytime they see something related to Japan they think I'm bound to like it.

My power level is so FUCKING HIGH that most of the figures of series I'm interested in aren't even available over the internet. They must be purchased at specific anime/hobby shows and conventions in Japan, IN PERSON.

And thus, this is the reason why I have no anime figures in my room, and probably never will.

God, I thought I was the only one who got this. Mostly just my mum though, I don't know how many times I've told her 'I don't care' in response to 'Oh I saw/heard... about Japan' yet she just won't get the message.

To OP's question - only got 1 figure (Alter Fate) and some DVDs, no posters or anything, mum loves the figure (I don't know why, but she does), dad and sister don't care, no one cares about the DVDs (It's nothing to my dad's collection of old sci fi movies anyway) so I'm all good.

I dunno, for some reason, I always had this thought that my /fig/s would have scratch marks on their paintjob if I were to dust them off with my paintbrush, or wash them with water when dust gathered on them.

Maybe it's due to the fact that they cost $50+ (and from the looks of it, newer figs are like $60~70 on average, from the preorder list I'm looking at) each, so I ended up taking extra care for them.

the only problem I had so far(as I said) was the tape which keeps the cases at the wall. somehow the tape was bad. but the cases never broke. to make shure the case doesn't break strenghten it with some super glue. It holds every PVC figurine. resin is too heavy though.
