Where is the line that distinguishes ``anime and cosplay" from ``otaku"? Is based on how normal / socially competent you are?

Here are some examples, with descriptions.

This is why /cgl/ is good. It's a containment board.

It's based on whether or not it belongs in /a/ or /cgl/.

Otaku is a great umbrella that fits Touhou (video game franchise turned into a phenomenon) and visual novels (neither anime nor manga nor video games)

I went to otacon one year to see jam project. I didn't talk to anyone and went home as soon as the concert was over. I was going to go to the 2hu panel to laugh at them but it was cancelled.

Case in point. They take a casual hobby and turn it into >muh community and make it about drama and gossip to the point that it's no longer about that hobby.
