Being yourself requires time and dedication in every job we do to grow personally and professionally. Also, to be an otaku some tasks are required that make us unique and that only among ourselves we could understand. These essentials are lived day by day and do not sprout overnight. Do you want to become a real otaku and not die trying?
Here we show you:
Your playlist or a folder with the openings and anime themes
A real otaku lists anime music, he has looked for musical montages that can be mixed with well-known songs and fused with scenes from his favorite anime. If it didn’t even cross your mind, you can’t consider yourself one.
Read manga
Basic for an otaku is reading manga. Move slowly but surely. Despite the fact that many find this activity difficult, they do it with great effort. They read Japanese graphic novels (from right to left) and an otaku is master at it.
Watch anime series without pause
It is essential that a true otaku girl or boy watch her series continuously, the most pro level is without pauses and with subtitles. If it’s only premiered in Japan, you see it too.
Cosplay
An art for the world. This is more than just a costume that not many continually practice, but if you’re yelling that you’re an otaku, you must have at least done it. Halloween, Carnival or anime screenings you could have used one.
Travel to Japan or that in your mind does not stop haunting that idea
Other things that are born to an otaku is to know the country where this great anime world originated: Japan. There is no day or night that this trip does not pass through his mind or that he buys things just because it comes out that they are from there. But that will only be understood by a true otaku.
The fourth otaku
Last requirement and the simplest in life. Your room will carry items or accessories that identify you with the manga or anime. If your room, no matter how small, does not have any figure or merchandise from your favorite anime series, then find your true hobby. On the other hand, you can start practicing these activities and join the otaku community.
