Calling yourself an otaku IS bad, as half of the definitions already state. It is the equivalent of a nerd or a shut-in, one of those people with skin the color of pasty white potato innards that obviously never leave their rooms. They speak badly-pronounced Japanese with broken phrases and improper words... like... say... OTAKU. American 'otaku' take pride in being nerdy pale-skinned freaks, and often scan over the latest hentai, yaoi, and yuri just to get off... most don't even know the ENGLISH LANGUAGE that well.
Most otaku sport a collection of Pokemon DVDs, trading cards, and pocky.

'Hentai' is another word that has sneaked into Internet language that has its roots in the Japanese language.
It literally means 'abnormal', but refers to perverts or perverted material, be it in anime, manga, or doujinshi form. It's all animated, drawn, etc. None of it is real. But I guess there are people that just can't get any...

I believe it refers to underaged sex, another piece of hentai material where one or both of the participants are 14 or younger. It is a Japanese term. Mostly people that like yaoi/yuri/hentai also like shota.
"Shota is so perverted!"
