She did said " They shouldn't think theirselves as an otaku if their only a fan of vocaloid. "
She didn't also tell that vocaloid fans shouldn't be an otaku, what I think she's trying to tell is that those who PRETENDS to be an otaku where they are just a fan of vocaloid.
So calm down, she didn't mean in that way.

Wikipedia: Otaku (おたく/オタク?) is a Japanese term used to refer to people with obsessive interests, particularly (but not limited to) anime, manga or Japanese video games.

This POST hit me just like a slap in the face.

Btw, How can you say that Vocaloid fans cannot be called as an Otaku? Yeah you could say Vocaloids are Voice Synthesizer, But that doesn't mean it will just end there.

I'll give you an example that Vocaloids are not only for Voice synthesizing,
Here:


Those are manga where you can found Vocaloids characters such as Miku Hatsune, Len and Rin Kagamine.

And ohh by the way those are called Doujinshi since the writers used an existing character for their story.

Another one, Vocaloid songs also use in Anime OST if you don't know so it's a part of being an Otaku.

Sorry, but I don't like the way you created this topic. It's like you're stopping Vocaloid fans from calling their self a Otaku. It's worst than racism dude.

I can't believe there's racism even in the world of otakus.

EDIT: I love Vocaloid (songs). The fact that my signature and profile picture is from a series of songs (Kagerou Days) where the singer is the Vocaloid IA proves it (he is not a singer though, but I love him nonetheless). Some Vocaloid songs have an anime adaptation (black rock shooter is a fine example of it) because of how popular it got over the time. Anime pretty much adapts anything (novels, mangas, songs etc) as long as its popular and it would sell well.

Think of them as novels, but instead of reading it, you sing it.

Actually, from Wiki, the above post defines OTAKU. So, again if you have been reading other posts, "Otaku is a Japanese term used to refer to people with obsessive interests, particularly (but not limited to)anime, manga or Japanese video games.

In modern Japanese slang, the term otaku is most often equivalent to "geek". However, it can relate to a fan of any particular theme, topic, hobby or any form of entertainment."

So, if you are a Vocaloid fan, nah, if you are a FAN of ANYTHING, then that means that you have interests in a particular thing or whachamacallit.

Rinoa wrote:So you mean, the same applies for those who are active in the game section. I respect your opinion, yes that is yours. But I also think you should consider others opinion as well. If the vocaloid, games or anime/manga fanatics think of themselves as otakus then let them be.

Not everyone who joined the site only thought of "Oh I am an anime otaku I should join" you see. Not everyone, because there would be me. The point is Anime has branched out to the point that there are animes that has been turned into a game and vice-versa. The site's main may be anime but it also means that somehow it contained other elements too such as vocaloid and video games.
