| 2:33pm | 人外萌え[jingai-moe] | | | | This is too broad. I don’t know how I should explain this genrewell, literally 人外[jingai] means non-human being, that is, anything which is not a human being. If such a creature turns you on, you would have 人外萌え[jingai-moe]. So ケモショタ[kemoshota], 猫耳[nekomimi], 獣人[jyujin],... | | |
| 3:02pm | コミケッコン[komikekkon] | | | | Needless to say, the hit movie 電車男[Train Man] is one of the major factors that dramatically changed the otaku’s image. The story features a love story between an otaku and a non-otaku young lady. Meanwhile, 腐女子彼女[My fujoshi girlfriend] features a love story(?) between a fujoshi... |
| 2:36pm | ロボット萌え[robot-moe] | | | | If you haven’t realised this yet, please try to recall as much the anime you have watched as you could. I am pretty sure you have already seen this in all your life. To get to the point, ロボット[robotto] means a robot. I think you already see what I am going to sayYes, ロボット here... | | |
| 1:51pm | キルドレ[kirudore] | | | | I don’t think I have to explain this, but actually I seriously feel this term could be a yearly famous word this year[年間流行語] The reason why I think so is that I have heard more than 10 non-otaku people around me saying this word in a conversation. It’s not so sure that I... |
| 12:05pm | 学園化[gakuenka] | | | | If you happen to follow doujinshi[fan-made comics] or such a video game, you would be sure of this. This is a primitive method for all the doujin fans to create doujin stuff. To get to the point, 学園[gakuen] means school and 化[ka] means to change sth in the certain way. Or else, it is to... |
| 3:18pm | 原作レイプ[gensaku reipu] | | | | It’s not very uncommon that spin-off works(anime, novel, or live-action movie and drama) come out when the original gets popular. But this is a good thing or not, I mustn’t say. Even if it could satisfy general people, it wouldn’t even necessarily content the sheer fans as wellMostly,... |
| 3:21pm | 触手[shokushu] | | | | This post contains some pornographic contexts. Viewers’ understanding is required. As I have said in my previous post, I shall explain one more term which is commonly used in doujin circles as wellThat is 触手[shokushu], which means tentacles. Yes, you do know what I am talking about?... |
| 3:26pm | 戦隊萌え・特撮萌え[sentai-moe/tokusatsu-moe] | | | | I am not too sure if this can be moe for anime fans, but this is absolutely a genre of moe for otaku. If you really like any ranger-style bishoujo anime such as Magic Knight Rayearth, Yes! Puricure, or Sailor Moon, this could break the barrier between the fantasy and the real world. To get... | | |
| 1:51pm | Nightmare in Akihabara | | | | Even if you are not an otaku, I think you would be sure of the nightmare in Akihabara where an insane man stabbed several people at random last Sunday afternoon. Tell me this is just a bad dream!! If you happened to be kindly worried about me, I must say I am okay. Hopefully, I was not there... |
| 12:51pm | ケモミミ萌え[kemomimi-moe] | | | | OMG, this has got into the mainstream already, so there’s no need to explainHowever, I thought this genre of moe is supposed to be for men. But actually even among female otaku including fujoshis, this is getting very popular. To get to the point, ケモミミ[kemomimi] is an abbreviation of... | | |
| 4:21am | My fifth cosplay | | | | Since I learned buying costumes by auction, I have started to get more costumes. Thanks to this, I can buy a lot of costumes at the reasonable price, and because of this, I can’t stop cosplaying!! More and more characters I want to cosplay come up. Come to think of it, how come I had not tried... | | |
| 6:39am | 聖地巡礼[seichi junrei] | | | | There’s no need to explain this term now since a lot of anime fans actually do this. But I wonder if foreign anime fans who come to Japan to do this know how this action shall be called. Yes, if you really really love the anime, would you like to travel some points where the anime used as... | | |
| 2:59pm | ツンデレcomparative [tsundere comparative] | | | | There’s no need to explain ツンデレ[tsundere] now, but like xxデレ[xx-dere] has a lot of types, there are some different types even on tsundere depending upon her temper. So today, I shall focus on some classification for this. This is something like a comparative form in English,... | | |
| 2:32pm | The classification for 攻め[seme] and 受け[uke] Ⅱ | | | | I have introduced various xx萌え[-moe] and xxデレ[-dere] so far. Like otakus love to come up with crazynew terms, fujoshis(BL fangirls) are also creating brand-new terms. I already explained some classification for top[seme] and bottom[uke] in my previous post, but darn it, I’ve got to... | | |
| 3:14pm | つるぺったん[tsurupettan] | | | | This post contains some pornographic contexts. Viewers’ understanding is required. A while ago when I shopped around Akihabara with my friend who came to Tokyo for business, we happened to enter the certain shop where real little girls DVD or photos were sold. Apparently, those little... | | |
