Why Do Some Otaku People Prefer Dating Anime Instead Of Real Women/Men?
Anime is an animation produced by the land of the rising sun, Japan. anime itself is an animation made with distinctive elements or characteristics that may differ from animations in general.
Generally, animation uses the usual standards such as the usual physical body and also does not emphasize the traditional side too much. Now, unlike general animation, anime is made a little differently, but all creators agree that it is “anime”, what is that ? so there's 4 point :
- First point is of course the anime must be made in Japan, both the physical/digital comic version (called manga).
- Second point is characteristic of anime is that it must have directed episodes, telling the story from one chapter to another in a way that makes sense and is connected.
- Third point is the physical depiction which is made according to the standard, such as large eyes, small nose and mouth, has an almost perfect body like a prince or princess, hair that seems a bit stiff but stylish.
- Fourth point is having the socio-cultural values of the place where the anime was made, whether it's an overt culture like fashion, places, or activities like performing prayer rituals at a Shinto temple.
Now even though anime was indeed made in Japan, of course the spread of 2D animation is capable of reaching various other parts of the world, including Europe. Now with this massive spread, an anime community has expanded and anime can even target large and global markets.
As this spread went on for a long time, communities of anime lovers from various other parts of the world began to form, and of course the advantage of this is that they get to know each other and share input and things we don't know about, making the community run independently.
But even so, of course, in the end there are also people in the community who may have a preference that we may not have thought of before, and that leads to a symptom of a hallucinatory illness.
This disease is not actually deadly, but it can cause people who have it to become hallucinated where they think they live in the anime world they watch and like, some of them are willing to “date” LDR with the anime characters they like, even though it is considered crazy by some people, even some normal anime lovers, they will not ignore it.
Now here comes a question, why don't they like real women/men, and they even like male/female anime characters that are not even real ?
Maybe this time i will explain a little why this could happen, well for those of you who are curious, let's discuss it together below:
1. Almost have Perfect physique
If you look at the physique of some of the characters in the anime, of course you will feel amazed that there is a 2d character that can be made by human hands that can even make other humans who see and watch it fall in love with it.
Now for this reason, many people really like some anime characters in it whether it makes them husbu or waifu.
Now these two words are usually used by hardline anime fans who feel they are “entitled” to be with the character, by imagining themselves together with the ideal character.
2. They are There When we Need Them
When you feel lonely, you just need to play a video or anime that contains your husbu / favorite character, making yourself feel that they alias the anime characters are always there for you.
When you are sad or remember something that makes you sick, you can remember the anime where your favorite characters are there, you can and always see them, even though you can't touch them but you feel warm when you have seen them in the frame.
3. They Understand Us Better
These anime characters can actually be made into what we want, for example, I want the anime character from boku no hero "Kaina Tsutsumi" to be a woman who understands me.
I just need to imagine her being kind to me and beside me, I imagine her sleeping with me and we exchange principles together until we both fall asleep.
Now maybe normal people wouldn't be able to do that because it's impossible, but for people with delusional illness, they can create a plot just by imagining or thinking, based on the image of the character they like.
End
So those are some of the reasons why there are otaku people who prefer dating 2D animations to real women/men. Of course, not all otaku are like that, but some of them have gone so far as to engage in such delusional activities, So thank you for reading this article.
