Anime and manga fandom
Anime and manga fan community (otherwise known as fandom) is a worldwide community of fans of anime and manga. Anime includes animated cartoons, films and videos, while manga includes comic books, graphic novels, drawings, and related artwork. They have their origin in Japanese entertainment, but the style and culture has spread worldwide since its introduction into the West in the 1990s.
== Otaku ==
(詳細はhonorific second-person pronoun. The modern slang form, which is distinguished from the older usage by being written only in hiragana (おたく) or katakana (オタク or, less frequently, ヲタク), or rarely in rōmaji, appeared in the 1980s. In the anime Macross, first aired in 1982, the term was used by Lynn Minmay as an honorific term.〔May 2006 issue of ''EX Taishuu'' magazine〕〔オタク市場の研究(Otaku Shijou no Kenkyuu), 野村總合研究所(Nomura Research Institude), ISBN 978-986-124-768-7〕 It appears to have been coined by the humorist and essayist Akio Nakamori in his 1983 series , printed in the lolicon magazine ''Manga Burikko''. Animators like Haruhiko Mikimoto and Shōji Kawamori used the term among themselves as an honorific second-person pronoun since the late 1970s.〔 After its wild spread usage by other Japanese people, however, it became pejorative and increasingly offensive in the 90's, implying that a person is socially inept. ''Otaku'' can be seen as being similar to the English terms ''geek'' or ''nerd''. However, the term started to be used by anime and manga fans themselves again starting in the 2000s, in a more general and positive way, and today it is often used by those outside of the fandom to refer to fans of anime or manga. However, older generation otaku, like ''Otaking''(King of Otakus) Toshio Okada, in his book ''Otaku Wa Sude Ni Shindeiru''(オタクはすでに死んでいる) said the newer generation of self-proclaimed otakus are not real otakus, as they lack the passion and research sense into a particular sub-culture subject, and are only common fans which only over spent in buying products.
