you know your a otaku when you ask your girlfriend to roleplay as a anime character in bed.
When you can perform the hare hare yukai dance and the lucky star opening dance? And cosplay when you do so?
To be honest, labelling yourself an otaku seems odd to me. It seems like something that another person would label you, not something you would label yourself.
Though.. I think I posted somewhere that I could be considered an otaku. Maybe I'm a hypocrite. ¬_¬
you know your a otaku when you create a thread titled "you know your a otaku when ..."

when you subconsiously use anime references at the worst moments. then my friend...you are an otaku<(-_-)>
You know when you're an otaku when you've watched so much anime all you're dreams are in anime format and you are an anime person in them. (it's true for me; a little sad probably that i'm this obsessed, but hey, you don't think in dreams. It's living the moment. I think its fun.^_^
~sigh. it really is sad but I use japanese words sub-consciously without noticing untill my friends are like "wtf does urusei mean?"-_- I'm one of the rare breed of otaku.the female!!!!!but I am a genuine item Mra ha ha ha ha. I have a few series' on dvd and over 300 manga volumes. you know how fricken hard it is to make fricken 3000$ when you're 14 and don't get allowance!!!!cries it was so hard. also, I constantly draw anime and I'm pretty damn good. Anyways, I also sub-consciously make the "omp" sound when I eat stuff. And I grab people by the back of their shirt or corner of their sleeve when I want their attention. not to mention instead of saying what?, I often say "de?!"(all of these otaku symptoms were only noticed by me after they were pointed out by friends)
Haha, you're a robot.
That's kinda hot.
Given, of course, that you obey Ritsuka's commands still.
Spread your legs.
haha! I refuse. I plan to stay a cute technical virgin until i'm twenty. Until then, I'll make do with girls ^_- I do love loveless thoXD!
>>109 draw anime? Got any links to the videos?

>>112
I mean like not actually anime but in that style. like manga books.
>>114
well that kinda manga style, most of anime are based on manga.
When you notice AND understand every single reference to anime, manga, games etc in Lucky star.
Lucky Star was relatively easy.
>>117
I found it quite easy too. A few references I didn't understand, such as the hair commercial one.. but it was okay.
I mentioned it because I was speaking to friends who also watched Lucky star and they missed all but the most obvious references..so I figured I might as well add it on here.
You know your a otaku when you intellectualize about things publicly while brazenly misspelling "you're" and forgetting to place an "n" after the "a".
yay! people noticed me^-^ teh heh
You see something in real life and imgaine how it would look like as if it was anime.
You dream in anime.
...
>When you notice AND understand every single reference to anime, manga, games etc in Otaku no Video

You know you're an Otaku when you stay at home on the computer for about half the day and spend the rest of the time sleeping, and during the day you sing along to the karaoke tracks of your favorite JPOP and anime music while beating your score again on the same damn game and spend the whole day trying to find a doujinshi you heard about that was pretty hot and then just go into a mad fit of rage if you can't.
