What you're referring to as Otaku Culture, is in fact, Autistic Culture, or as I've recently taken to calling it, Autism plus Culture

More or less in an indirect kind of way

I read on the blog of one of my favorite artists that he makes 360 yen for every sale on dlsite. So I went and checked his last release, and found that it sold over 850 copies. That means he earned around 300 000 yen on that one set.

Obviously he couldn't make a living from it, since he's complaining about his creativity running out from just making 2-3 works every year. But it's not as bad as I thought, with people claiming that most artists barely make enough money to cover the costs of making their work.
