You know manga and anime are Japanese subcultures

Big subcultures

How did you start liking anime and when did you start liking it?

When I was in high school My high school studies Japanese as our like choice language

Because you have to study a language in high school and

Obviously in the Japanese class They put on Howl’s Moving Castle

As like you can just watch this instead of doing a lesson

And I was like oh I love this

And I found Studio Ghibli

And then from Studio Ghibli I found anime

And then from anime I found cosplay

And it’s just all one after the other All from the one high school lesson

You’re stuck in a Japanese subculture cycle

That’s good

Did you study Japanese too?

I did but before I start studying Japanese

I picked up a volume of Beach from my local library and

Local library?

My local library

Do they have manga?

Yeah they have manga sometimes

Mine did too actually

My school library had manga in Australia

And I picker up the first volume of Bleach and I read it

And I felt I want more of this

Last question is gonna be like this

You know the word “Otaku”

When people talk about anime and manga Sometimes you hear “Otaku”

And in English it’s the same Otaku

But the definition of Otaku is so vague for me

And I don’t even know much about Otaku

How do you understand Otaku? What is Otaku for you in English?

Otaku to me is someone who’s just passionate about anime, manga and Japanese culture

It could also just be someone who’s just really passionate about specific subject

2組目 オーストラリア出身の女性2人組に聞いてみた!

Where are you from?

I’m just from Sydney Australia

Australia

What is the theme of this costume today?

This is Love Live!

So it’s an idle, rhythm game and anime

Anime, mange and Japanese games obviously are

The biggest Japanese subculture right

How and when did you start liking them?

Well I met Zoe and she introduced me to it Maybe when I was fourteen

And we’ve been going to conventions with each other since

I started liking anime when I was eight

It was a kinda silly thing I got into it

I was looking at vampires videos on it

I found an anime called Diabolik Lovers

And from there my love for anime just continues

I have a lot of non Japanese friends who live in Japan

And not everyone but most of them

Start liking Japan because of anime and manga

This is like the biggest reason for non Japanese people to start liking Japan

Are you also interested in Japan?

Have you been there before?

I haven’t but I really like to go

I think that the culture and everything they looks so beautiful and I really like to go

I think anime kind of gives us like Us foreigners

A skewed opinion of Japan

And we see it in this one like

My family has been to Japan a few times and they said

It’s not entirely like all the anime you watch though I was like

I know but it influences as well

You know the Japanese word Otaku

And in English it’s the same Otaku

But the definition of Otaku for me it’s like so vague

And I don’t even know much

I wanna know how you guys are understanding the definition of Otaku in English

What’s Otaku?

I think to me it’s more someone who enjoys Japanese like

A pop culture and literature

Really anything that’s like comes from Japan

But I think especially nowadays If you are talking about it between anime fan

That’s how you distinguish with a weeaboo

Who are the crazy foreigner fans who loves Japan a bit too much

And then Otaku is just normal anime fans

Yeah I definitely agree

Thank you very much ladies

Enjoy your day

On this i’s probably say

Hundred dollars plus

That’s it

So I made this

From scratch but it did cost me quite a fair but

So it’s made from foam but

It adds up surprisingly

So probably in the hundreds

Some hundreds yeah?

Maybe one hundred something coz

It’s like foam layered on foam so

You guys are really good at it

I wanna ask you how and when did you get a know anime and manga?

They do show quite a lot of anime in Australia

And manga is actually quite popular as well

You find a lot pop culture book shops tend to sell them

So you get exposed to it quite often

With social media I suppose nowadays it’s even more

If I’m gonna be honest I didn’t actually know what anime was until I was like in mid twenties

Quite late yeah?

I was in university and that’s when I actually discovered anime, manga and all that And it was just since then yeah

Since then you got into it

A lot of non Japanese people who live in Japan

Obviously they like Japan They are interested in Japan That’s why they live there

Most of them start liking Japan

Because of manga and anime

Do you guys also like Japan?

Are you interested in Japan?

Have you been there before?

I’ve not been there but I’d love to go

It’s funny though because my friends and I were talking about going to Japan but

Then obviously COVID hit and

Everything just got derailed

One day

Definitely on my list of places I’d like to go

I’ve had family and friends that have been and but

Me I’m still waiting

Anime and also Japanese games I reckon they describe Japanese men

The characters are Japanese men

So you like anime They are Japanese men

Are you interested in Japanese men?

Ummmm

Maybe if you meet a right person

I mean depend on who you are talking

No I ho no that’s ah

If they’be got a good personality, definitely

I was gonna ask

What are you talking about 2D or 3D?

That’s deep
