Anonymous asked: I've seen a few of the stories on here involve people who dress up and go to sushi resteraunts. Is this really weeaboo behavior? Or is it just the fact that these people were doing the whole "butchering the Japanese language thing?"

If you give a weeaboo a second chance...
I’ll be the first to admit that I had a weeaboo phase. It never got to the point where I was randomly spouting off Japanese or glomping people or doing anything generally creepy, but anime was about the only thing I would truly talk about with others. I was a loner and a loser and was overall an unhappy person. Then came Meeps. Meeps and I met when I was in my freshman year and she was in...

"You're Not a REAL Yaoi!" [ tw: transphobia ]
Before I start my story, there are two things you need to know. One, I’m a cis guy, but my boyfriend is trans. However, he’s pre-T and pre-surgery (he’s still a minor, and unfortunately his parents are unsupportive), so he still has kind of a high voice and a slight figure. Two, my boyfriend was born with a rare condition that left him with a slightly malformed left lung....

Nazi Germany anyone?
Around 3 years ago when I first started High school I decided to join the anime club because I was fairly new to the area (having started at the end of eighth grade) and had barely any friends. But this was my first mistake. On the first day of anime club I met The president of the club (lets call her amy) Amy was a nice girl she was a Senior and I quickly took a liking to her because we shared...

Japan Does No Wrong
So, this happened a few years ago when I was at school. Every lunch break my friends and I would draw together, the styles we drew in were varied though nearly all of us had watched an anime or read a manga and were fans. It was a large-ish group of around eleven and we all were closer or more distant to certain people within the group though there was this one guy who sort of freaked us all out,...

cliscia: Dear fnohomestuck, I have a con horror story for you. A couple of friends and I went to a fairly small con about a month ago, and were having a great time until this ‘Terezi cosplayer’ (she was just wearing a teal floral print shirt and orange pants and red sunglasses) came up and started harassing the Karkat in our group, calling her her matesprit. She then left and cackled like a...

nolongerakathere asked: At first I thought this site was really silly, but then the stories reminded me toooo much of all the people I've been trying to avoid for the past 8 years. It's like terrible flash backs. Why can't more normal people enjoy anime? ;n;

His name was Cloud
During my high schools years I was the president of the anime club. I was introduced to a guy named “Cloud” instantly I thought it Final Fantasy immediately. He was in my grade but we didn’t have any classes together, so I didn’t know much about him. I didn’t think anything big of his name being Cloud because many of us in the anime club went by anime type aliases. He was Asian but definitely...

My Not-So-Kawaii Date With an Animu Nazi.
I’m 27 years old. When I was 14-18 I went through a massive weeaboo phase where I watched anime non-stop. Anyway, I just started university and since I’m still sort of into anime, I decided to join the anime club. The club is mainly comprised of first year (aged 18-19) students. Immediately upon entering I noticed, lets just call her, Kayla. Anyway, Kayla is not your typical weeaboo....

okay so i, like many others on this tumblr, had a weeaboo phase of my own when i was 14. i called people incorrect honorifics, i owned a leather collar, i read weird yuri mangas. this was right around when i was figuring out my own sexuality so i joined my school’s GSA. that was a mistake. the GSA at our school was not, as one might think, a haven for queer youth. instead it was the anime club...

Er...You Know He's Not Real, Right?
It all started a few years ago when I was staying the night at my grandmother’s house. She told me that one of my cousins was coming down from upstate, and I could meet her for the first time. Now, at the time, I was into Naruto. Not CRAZY into it, but I watched it if it was on, had a poster for it—nothing much. So when Reny arrived, I told her a bit about how I liked some anime....

NekoNyaChan
So here goes, my tale of horror. I had just gotten out of my weeaboo stage (along with my two friends, let’s name them P and R.) in seventh grade. We were all pretty chill with everyone, especially the other anime fans. We’d met this one girl, who we’ll name NekoNyaChan, last year and thought she was pretty nice, a great person who was into the same things as us. We’d talk...

Anonymous asked: So wait, is anyone who likes anime more than the average person a "weaboo" now? Cause that's not fair. I mean there are people that are bat shit insane, but you get that EVERYWHERE in life. Not just anime fans. I mean, I've been an anime fan since I first watched Pokemon, I watch at least 6-10 new series of Anime every year. But that doesn't mean I spout random Japanese,...

No, we are not married.
So, I got into Team Fortress 2 awhile back, maybe a few months ago. Not long after, I found a bunch of tf2 cosplayers and decided to try it. Since I’m pretty lanky and thin, I decided to go for Spy. I managed to get it all together in time for a one-day-con (and I’ll be damned if it didn’t take me a month to find that suit.) and I got some very positive reactions, shared a lot of...

Certainly not the worst, but...
Some years ago, I was at a con with my little circle of nerd-type bros. We stopped outside of our hotel to drink our weeb sodas and, somehow, this odd-looking fellow gets roped into our conversation. Being young and dumb, we invite him up to our room to talk some more and watch some anime I could tell was pretty bad, even back then. As time went on, so the dude got creepier, leering at and...

Did I ask you to do that?
Okay, I’ve been to a few expos in my years of cosplay experience and…this has to be the worst that has happened to me so far. I was cosplaying Akita Neru Matryoshka, one of my friends was cosplaying Luka Matryoshka (I’ll call her Ali) and another cosplayed Miku Matryoshka (I’ll call her Oli). We were enjoying half way of the expo, socialising to people when this late 20...

A short encounter of the Weeaboo
I was never really into anime and I never really considered myself to be hardcore. I read some manga here and there, watched a few anime when I felt like it, but I never ran around screaming “kawaii” or anything like that. I was not an otaku, far from it. If you threw some random anime/manga name at me, I’ve more than likely never heard of them. Ever. A couple years ago I worked at a sushi...

Apparently, dragons.
I’m not sure whether this girl (We’ll call her K) would be considered an otakukin, otherkin, or batshit insane beyond what is thought to be possible. Ok, so our little tale of horror begins at the apartments I lived in about four years ago. We had just moved there, so I was friendless, knew noone, etc. and was going to a new school. Needless to say, I was freaked out and lonely, sobbu...
