Just when I talked about the image of Otaku in Japan, out comes a video I got to know of recently on YouTube.

Channel News Asia goes out to the field of otaku cosplayers and finds out about the difficulties of maintaining their “weird” interest in a conservative Japanese society.

They sang the School Rumble theme song :) Here are the rest of the parts:

    I’ve watched the first half. It was scary to see men cosplaying as female characters… I thought it was only on flickr.

    I’ve watched the entire documentary, it was actually kind of touching. (^.^)

    Thanks for sharing!
