    13 KB The Otaku Harm Ranking Anonymous 10/15/11(Sat)23:30 No.311660  
    2ch has compiled its own chart ranking comparing the relative craziness and propensity for dubious (if not dangerous) behaviour each of the major groups of otaku find themselves predisposed to.

    The diagram, translated from the original with positioning remaining faithful:

    Geha refers to the “games & hardware” board on 2ch, which is host to notoriously crazed and mutually antagonistic populations of Nintendo, Sony and Microsoft fans (and is also the basis for the Neptunia games). Korea refers to followers of the “Korean wave,” and the Hanshin Tigers and Urawa Red Diamonds are both popular sports teams with at times overly dedicated supporters.

    Those wondering why apparently harmless train-spotters are considered even more dangerous than seiyuu otaku and idol fanciers are advised to look into some of their previous antics.

    sage because you're spamming this to multiple boards

    But bicycle otaku rank as harmful? Why?
    Yes, Japanese bicycle enthusiasts are brand-whores who ape western roadies and fixie hipsters, but harmful?

    sign reads:
    >ブレーキなし。問題なし。
    >no brakes. no problem.
    Fucking ヒップスター

    Why are bicycles so high on the Harmful scale, way above sports, cars and motorbikes? Are Japanese cyclists violently insane?

    Japanese train fans are known to be very dedicated, and spend a lot of their free time watching trains. But how is that "harmful"? The only thing it's harmful to is their own social life, and you could say the same about most things in that chart.

    ITT: People who do not realize the Japanese took personal/emotional health into account. :D

    Seriously though, who's trying to have sex with trains in Japan, that is the only logical conclusion I can draw.

    Even then, I don't understand why bicycles are way higher than eroge and figures.

    Porno games and figures are seen as a phase that teenagers go through.

    This on the other hand, is creepier than bozoku.

    Are bikes like that a more frequent occurrence than rooms like this, seriously?
    >> Anonymous 10/17/11(Mon)05:37 No.311826
    I see a lot of train fans hanging out on the platforms taking pics of trains. I can see the attraction of the shinkansen (which are fucking awesome) and some of the random limited express trains, but it seems like they are always taking pictures of just everyday commuter trains. And they definitely do see weird, although not necessarily dangerous except when they gather in large groups.
    Most cyclists here go the full hipster fixie route or total spandex bike nerd style. There is no in between.

    I've lived in Japan for around 8 years and I've never seen an otaku'd-out bike like that, but I'm sure there's a scene for them in Tokyo somewhere. Occasionally I'll see a motorbike or car covered in anime shit though.
