What is the incidence of African-Americans interested in otaku culture?

Rare, I've only known 2 Black Otakus, and they were interested solely in shoujo and more main-stream stuff, although they did a fair amount of research in to Japanese culture to know enough.

The rest are coons.

Id do something similar to OP's picture, but then I don't want my face all over 4chan in meme form. But on a side note, I watch stuff shounen with fanservice, and slice of lifes like K-ON.

I am black and I love cute things so naturally I'm attracted to /jp/ and the things this board has to offer. I feel like I'm very connected and comfortable with otaku culture, moreso than some people I've seen post here. You could say that I am the archetype of a typical /jp/ user.

Who doesn't love KFC? Also, did you know that the original KFC commercials, back when the Kolonel was still alive, had white people in the commercials eating chicken?

Pretty much this. We are damned good at hiding power levels. My coworkers would be shitshocked to know that I collect a large amount of doujin and figures. My one moment of showing my interest involved me playing EOSD while on lunch break while mu boss watched in awe at what I was playing.

Mostly indifferent but now he knows the origin of my cellphones ringtone which is set to UN Owen Was Her. Now I think he's taking an interest in Touhou music because "Its something I've never heard before with such a unique sound."

this makes me so sad, there are some truly beautiful mixes of touhou songs out there. Some brought a tear to my eye with their epicness.

>> No.5951025

Black people don't have that stratification into nerds and non nerds and cool kids and so on. Because of that, they can take it easy and like whatever they want. It's also impossible for a black person to look uncool doing anything, thanks to the media. Also not many WWII vets in their family, since they weren't thought of as any better than the Japs back then.

But then that just goes for anime, even though its fair to say a large amount are into at least the anime that comes on TV, and many more are at least open to it.

As far as the incidence of fig collectors and stuff, no idea.
