Otaku is a unisex word, so there is neither a male nor a female version of it. neptunemoon is female, and she uses "otaku," as well she should if she considers herself to be one.

[Tetsuotaku]

When i wake up in the morning and the first thing that is coming into my mind is the phrase "I...AM...TETSUO"....:bluush:

You try to perform hand seals on your sister.. :p (Naruto!)

When you have more in common with your new girlfriend's kids than with her.

When you have over 1 gig of anime on your computer or compiled in cds

This may be late but who hasn't got more then a gig? One episode can go from 150mb to 250mb depending on quality.

I've got 40gigs of anime on my pc and over 300gigs on dvd-r's

Frank

:( :( :( :( :(

[Golgo_13]

Howaito San,

You've seen Bugs Bunny and the Merry Melodies.

Today's kids are the ones who are missing great animation.

[Uncle Frank]

I always felt like Coyote in real life!

Frank
:p

[EscaFlowne]

I felt like Daffy!!! :D

[Hachiko]

When I was younger, I liked the Road Runner, and Speedy Gonzales. I likes the state of New Mexico when I was in elementary school; primarily because their state bird was a Warner Bros. character. :D

Of course, that was before I became an anime fan. :bluush:

[Mayura]

hmm... oh well, I think it doesn't matter even IF I watched too much anime! ^^

I find this new forum so confusing... x.x

[evasuka]

ive never really watched too tv
when anime was introduced to me then i became attached to the screen

[slavejew]

when you do this...
look at the file :blush:

[kai_sethoris]

when you act like an anime character, ive tried it! it just isnt the same . . .

:p

[EscaFlowne]

when in a forum you write this just for fun [screams like a japanese school girl]

[Hachiko]

You're a child that complains, and you don't want to be that child anymore.
You never give up! :victory:
You can teleport.
You see panty shots on every street, city or country.
It is the law to glomp whenever possible.

[silver angel]

Howaito San,

You've seen Bugs Bunny and the Merry Melodies.

Today's kids are the ones who are missing great animation.

:D I grew up watching videos of Merry Melodies! I have about 3 video cassettes of cartoons of the 50's-70's Those are awesome cartoons!(all warner bros.) :giggle:

I grew up watching disney and astro boy...and *jigs* MERRY MELODIES!!!

[Hachiko]

I used to also watch Disney shorts. One of my favorites was "Lend a Paw." It was interesting to see Pluto change colors. Nowadays, if Ran-sama saw me have the ability to change colors, she would disown me, which I would relish. But alas! Hachiko does not have the power to change colors... :bluush:

[TyPe-ZeRo]

When you : add a -nyo/nya to a word to make it sound "kawaii", then use japanese words to sound cool-nyo. :/ oh yeah i haven't been here in awhile

when playing strategy games, FFxI or everquest type games your name is of an anime you like...

-Cough-EQ/Escaflowne-EndCough-

[Hachiko]

You streak down the streets.
You facefault every day.
You fall over.
You collapse every time someone says "Osuwari!"
You flail every day.
You have become a citizen of Japan.

[Kama]

I definetely watch too much anime...

When you listen all the time to anime music... XD When you sing songs from anime... XD [Ooops... I'm taking about myself again.. Don't mind me... :D]

[Haivart]

When you start noticing that Dragonball has several similarities to "Journey to the West"

[EscaFlowne]

when you daydream about begin lord van or dilandua from escaflown at work swing your arms like you have a sword...

and you have to post about what you do on a forum about watching too much anime

[TyPe-ZeRo]

when you reply more than once to the same thread entitled "You know you have been watching too much anime when..." ;) kekeke

[Hachiko]

You're a metrosexual. :D
You dream while you work.
Your eyes turn into spirals. :mad:
You love to sing. :sing:
You fall over!
You flail at everything.
You wish your life was an anime.

What the hell is a metrosexual??? :mad:

[Hachiko]

What the hell is a metrosexual??? :mad:

Calm down, allow me to explain. A metrosexual is a male/female who is straight, but has emotions and feeling of both a man and woman. See this thread (http://www.jref.com/forum/showthread.php?t=4415&highlight=metrosexual).

[EscaFlowne]

oh sorry for sounding like that.

-when you take the time to sit down and think about what to put up in this thread!

You can't sit still.
You dance to 80's music.
You're simply irresistable!
Hell hath no fury...

dude who took the picture of the guy in the salor moon costume? becuase my buddies tell me he is called sailor bubba. and he is always at ACEN like one of the biggest anime conventions. ill be seeing that guy soon!!!

[Luxpyre]

You watch an Anime that you have never heard of before and despite having never seen the characters, you already know the whole story, and you keep getting weird feelings of deja vu.
-or-
you wake up one morning after a night of questionable choices involving consiousness affecting drugs to find you have dyed your hair blue and your eyes are freakishly large, seemingly after extensive plastic surgury.

-or-

you wonder what using consiousness affecting drugs has to do with the "you know you have been whatching too much anime when..." thread

-or-

all but the best anime seems childish and stupid, and realize that it has encouraged you to espouse an unrealistic view of reality and your place in it and you suddenly realize how uncool you would actually look if you had super powers triggered by taking special poses and saying odd little phrases (much like the power rangers!) and had to battle vegita in front of your friends

[Kama]

... I love being teased.. AM I CRRRRRRRAZY!?!

No... I :love: teasing people... I just love it... :D

[aaron]

You know you have been watching too much anime when....
all you think about, talk about and even sing (theme songs) anime and manga.

I'm guilty of this and much more. I'm going to Japan next year and wanting a job in a manga workshop.

[ashuri2]

you know you watch too much anime when you make your own sound effects as you go about your daily life, when you actually think you're an anime character, when you get pissed and beat up people who ask you, 'he's just a cartoon character, how can he be your future husband', when you start a 'help me to purchase manga' fund and seek donations form all your friends, acquaitances, negihbors, random strangers on the street...

[EscaFlowne]

You know you have been watching too much anime when you come to a store that could possibly sell anime, you find yourself in that department first not moving, just reading and rereading till dragged away by more then 3 of your friends......then find a way to ditch them and come back to read and reread again...till they find you of course... :D

[ashuri2]

you know you watch too much anime when you're at an airport terminal with another otaku and you both squeal with excitement when you find a mini bookstore with an extensive anime collection- and he's a guy...and you find nothing wrong with it!

[=w=eezer]

you know you watch too much anime when you're at an airport terminal with another otaku and you both squeal with excitement when you find a mini bookstore with an extensive anime collection- and he's a guy...and you find nothing wrong with it!

when you delude yourself to thinking there is a store with an extensive anime collection at an airport terminal, and thinking there's someone else who's an otaku just like you at the same airport terminal.

[ashuri2]

when you delude yourself to thinking there is a store with an extensive anime collection at an airport terminal, and thinking there's someone else who's an otaku just like you at the same airport terminal.

when you have so little of a social life you don't think it's possible to have an anime section in an airport bookstore, you think that if there is one it's extensive, and that you're the only otaku in the world and would therefore have no chance of traveling with one. :okashii:

[Narau]

You know you watch too much anime when:

You wish you also had a "super secret final attack".
When someone causes trouble you wonder if using the "Hiten Mitsurugi" style would be over the top.
When you spend more money in a month on anime than on food.
When you pay for cable, but you never watch it because your anime collection is more interresting.

:p

[ashuri2]

No such thing as too much Anime! :bravo:
That's it exactly :D

[Flashjeff]

I know I've been watching too much anime when....

I try to get angry so that plus sign appears on my forehead,
I long to have a cute Persocom like Chi around the house,
I wish the Mach-5 were in my driveway,
I dream I were a teenager again so I could be in Miss Yukari's class,
I save up money for a Hi-Def TV in the hope Video Girl Ai will pop through the screen,
I fantasize about dueling with Utena Tenjou, then doing the wild thing with her and Anthy! Yeah, baby, YEAH!
:D

[Hikki Kokurabuji]

- when you dream for having all the anime girls' plush dolls in your bedroom.

[Daiku]

...when you spend all of your money on anime merchandise
...decorate all your school stuff with anime pictures printed off the internet ( binders, books ectect) (well if your still a student-_-)
....when all you eat is pocky and bubble tea

Thats me. I'm broke from buying all my anime merchnadise and all the stuff i have put on my birthday wishlist has something to do with anime or manga (Love Hina manga, Lain Dvds, lain doll, how to draw manga books etc.).
I also have a picture of lain on the back of my homework diary

[=w=eezer]

You know you have been watching too much anime when you attempt plastic surgery on your face to look like your favorite anime character.

[TwistedMac]

[ryuichi]

when your convinced that the pictures and wall scrolls on your walls are looking at you and talking to you.

[Ascension]

When you spend hours upon hours on the net finding "How to read japanese" or "Japanese Flashcards" just so that you can understand original japanese anime without subs.

:cool:

Not sure it's the original but, here's where i found it: http://www.stud.ntnu.no/~shane/stasj/pics/humor/div/index.html

I've looked high and low for it, but found nothing. I bet you all are a lot more skilled than me using the net.

please let me know if you find it

[TwistedMac]

animacastle.com (http://www.animecastle.com/catalog/psearch?t=p&q=bedsheet&x=0&y=0) has some pretty good ones.

and pillowcases at houseofanime.com (http://www.houseofanime.com/en-us/dept_1501.html)

but none of them are quite what i'm looking for =/.. i want the one in your pic XD, or does the "slipcover" in the onegai series pillowcases mean the same as bedsheets?... because if it does, that is very much so what i want XD i'd love to have the one of the teach :D

[PaulTB]

You know you've been watching too much anime when you start adding gema to the end of each sentence gema.
Sorry to drag this back on topic gema.

[Sinspawne]

I wan't that bed sheet, no other but THAT one! :(


since it's nowhere to be found...
maybe the bed sheet got so popular, mobs started stampeeds in stores that sold them, and the goverment had to step in and remove all traces of it's existence :shock:

or it could just be custom made...

does anyone what anime/manga it's from?
-------------------------------------------------
almost forgot.. :relief:
