Post by Xultimate human genocideX »

At first I started as a Full Metal Otaku then today I changed my name and I noticed i was now a Dragon Master Otaku. How did I change?

It's also "house" and "you" in a seriously nice way (depending on how it's written).

Then again, most people here in America assocaite "otaku" being "geek" for anime when "otaku" can be applied to anything.
Blue like. Like blue.

Exactly. These user titles suck. Stupid kids in America think the term Otaku is cool because it identifies them with liking anime. But in Japan, Otaku is a very derogatory term.
