Why Otaku Have a Bad Name

A man in Tokyo married his dating simulation girlfriend, Nene Anegasaki… for real.

They had an official ceremony, complete with a priest. There was even a slideshow to show all of the “wonderful moments” the two had shared.

Now this is just ridiculous. I don’t care how in love you are with a character, it passes over time and you move on to the next fantasy crush.  I don’t know if this is an actual, legal wedding, but even just the ceremony is taking things too far.  What a waste of time and money.

Not to mention that this makes our already stereotyped community look bad. We’re known for doing outlandish things, but I think that our stigma has been waning with time and effort. This just puts us back to where we started; back to the crazy people who can’t get real lovers, so they watch hentai! Or whatever other crap people have come up with. 

And Love Plus? That’s a nintendo DS game. It’s a tiny screen, and probably pixely as hell. Well, whatever. Have it your way. おめでとう。
