In my previous editorial I may have sounded harsh towards towards the people Japan defines as ‘Otaku‘. I referred to them as vile, scum-sucking pedophiles, or something along those lines. But what I didn’t touch on is what defines an otaku.

By Asura • Sep 8th, 2008 • Category: Entertainment, Events, Featured, Technology, Video Games
