■Word or phrase of the moment
As a suffix to sentences I tend to say “~da o” a lot. And also, “tutturuu” (an onomatopoeic word: generally used as an expression of excitement).
■What are you hooked on at the moment?
Anime – “Regular Life” (Nichijou). It’s so good to just have it playing in the background while doing something else. In doing so, I tend to end up watching the same episodes over and over again.
Also, “Steins; Gate.” It has completed unexpected plot turns and I really like the otaku nature of the characters. I picked up “tutturuu” from Mayushi and “~da o” from Daru in the series.
Manga – “Yowamushi Pedaru.” I bought a cross-country bike to ride to work everyday so I wondered if there wasn’t a manga about bicycles out there and this is what I found. It has a similar feel to “Slam Dunk” and is really hard to put down.
■The next thing you want to buy?
A low table. Whenever friends come round I always think it would be good if I had a table for drinks and snacks, etc. I could have a few figurines and manga sitting there for when I just want to kick back on the lounge and relax…
■How much have you invested so far?
Probably about 10,000,000 Yen, (approx. $100,000) but I couldn’t say exactly.
■What does being an otaku mean to you?
An opportunity to communicate.
■How do you budget your monthly earnings?
Living expenses 80%
Otaku goods 20%
■Last word
I look forward to making more and more friends who share an interest in manga and anime!
