Yeah, I don't think anything's wrong with the fansubbers and sometimes they leave annoying extra notes, but sometimes its funny.

Oh, the drama… I mean, some people like Marmot have a point: why don't the heck we just sit back and watch and enjoy the show? That's what it used to be, and that's what I do right now.

Given the size of intarnets drama he made, Otaking will soon get his 15 minutes in ED.

@The Sojourner – first time I encountered that was some group's Paniponi Dash subs. It was revolutionary.

@wildarmsheero – back in those times too, male leads are almost "never" otakus, nowadays you have some to reflect the changing population of anime viewers.

@Shin – but you gave massive lulz on those screenshots of yours!

I feel so left out knowing I'm probably the only one without a proper opinion on the matter (ಠ_ಠ)

>>Think about it, a otaku-based show like Genshiken didn't exist in 1980s or 1990s

Uhhhh there was that little thing called, you know, OTAKU NO VIDEO.

But yeah, that shit was few and far between in the 80s because the guys making anime were still the old guys from the 70s and not the fans. Now the fans of those guys are making anime, hence more otaku-centric stuff.
