Otaku is what some hardcore anime fans call themselves. Anyone who calls themself an "Otaku" is a complete prick and should be shot in the face over and over again.
I'm an otaku, an absolute twat with no social life , oh, and I'm better than you because I have a bigger anime collection.

A Japanese word for person whom are prone to stay at home and watches anime/manga/video games. Although my friends and I like to mess around with that word saying like: Goodbye my otaku brethern Or Fellow Otakus unite! Or something like that PS it is a negative word
Great I'm stuck with a non-otaku.

Otaku is a Japanese term for people with obsessive interests, commonly the anime and manga fandom.
John - I heard that Quinn is an Otaku! Seth - Awesome! I'm into anime and manga too! Seth - I love being an Otaku

The word, "otaku," is often used to describe die-hard fans of anime and manga, meaning that these hard core fans live and breath to read Manga and watch anime. as defined by wisegeek.com, see www.wisegeek.com/what-is-japanese-anime.htm for details
otaku isn't just a negative definition , but atleast this source can be trusted to be unbias.

Rediculous 50 bigots in the universe who say that everything from Japan is superior JUST because it's from Japan, and everything elsewhere (mainly American) is horrible. They tend to bash America in every way possible, and blame America for 'ruining' things such as anime and videogames with minor things such as poor voice-acting skills. There is a big difference between otakus, hermits, and people that are actually interested in the country of Japan for it's cultural value. The difference is that all otakus do is complain about how Japan does not rule the world and how they believe that everything Japanese is perfect. People, usually otakus, however, tend to get these words confused, unfortunately. They act as Japanese as possible when they really aren't, but it really just makes them look even more retarded. Idiots.
Perfect example of something you'd hear from an otaku: "lol im an otaku and i preffer subbed anime than dubbed anime bcause itz more japaneeese and america ruinz everything even tho i phail 2 understand japanese"
