But in Japan, things like Otaku's and Neets arnt seen as good things. Being a 'real' otaku would mean by being an anime fan by japans standards i think and Otaku is a negative term there. So i dont think anyone should aspire to waste their lives being a 'real' otaku/neets. Nothing wrong with being a fan or wanting merch or simply just not enjoying working, but I think there are limits.. I'm kinda with Yaassshat on this one, its just not healthy.

The real/outside world is unhealthy >.>

I stay at home and inside as much as possible and go out only when necessary.

I am currently a NEET as I finished my summer courses last Friday :) The only work I do is volunteering as a swim instructor at my Paseo club until I start school again in late August :)

Im just an Otaku. I agree with you there, Neet. Ive seen many things hardly ever relating to anime here on the forums too. Its by half choice for me, I suppose. Anime related things are practically central in my liffe, and I find it amazing such an art form can change a person for life like this. Though sometimes, I do wish I could get out of the house for something other than the mundane tasks I already have. Like a date, perhaps. Actually, that just implies one reason why Im here.

I'm not a hikikomori/Neet anymore but I plan to work 95% of the time at home. Too much violence, risks of accidents outside.

I'm pretty much on par with @Animekid's last 2 comments. Honestly the only thing keeping me from being a full Hikikomori is the necessity for money, sun and fresh air 1-2 times a month and contact with people because, I tend to get lonely after a bit unfortunately.

I wouldn't mind being very social in a perfect virtual reality world like Overlord anime. The world should be anime-style though.

@jiro I hear ya man.

Becoming a full fledged Otaku actually saved my life believe it or not. true story. so I dont think it always has to be "Unhealthy". tho unfortunately the necessity for money has not left me with as much time for my hobbies as i'd like.
