Outsiders who join a fandom solely to change it to fit their standards without actually enjoying it. They ignore pre-established rules and expect others to follow their new ones without question. They attack fans and creators for anything they deem "abnormal" and engage in brigaded attacks against those who don’t conform. They have no problem threatening violence or sending death threats, believing their actions are justified.
Despite pretending to be inclusive, they reject any culture outside their own. When called out, they always play the victim and claim it's proof the fandom needs "fixing." They manipulate online engagement by botting Facebook likes, Twitter shares, and Reddit upvotes to create a false sense of support.
Most emerged during and after the 2020 pandemic when lockdowns gave people too much free time. While some pre-2020 cases existed, they were mostly confined to Tumblr. They can be identified by posts mocking fandom norms that receive thousands of likes, yet most replies disagree, exposing the botting.
When confronted, they typically:
- Play the victim
- Use ad hominem attacks against fans
- Trivialize the situation (often exposing their hypocrisy)
- Threaten violence against those who disagree

Outsiders who join a fandom/hobby with the sole purpose of policing the behavior of fans in said fandom/hobby and not because they enjoy the hobby themselves. They can commonly be seen trying to shame people for engaging in things that are normal for the fandom and aren't even offensive and harmful, in order to make them "normal" according to their standards. They often engage in brigading to bully people to be more "normal" according to their standards. They like to ragebait fans on purpose and play the victim when the fans get angry or call the fancops out for their behavior. They also like to attack the pre-existing fans by belittling them for their hobby. They also always appeal to triviality.

A subset of anime and otaku culture that is a mix of anime and street/urban culture
At least that's what you'd think right?
Actually no. The hood in hood weeb actually stands for gang mentality, as hood weebs are primarily identified by engaging in excessive and obsessive behavior over anime, such as doxxing people, spreading CSEM and such.
One thing hood weebs have in common is that most of them are action shounen fans, as in they only watch action shounen anime, such as Dragon Ball Z, One Piece, Boruto, Jujutsu Kaisen, Chainsaw Man, etc.
The term has nothing to do with race/ethnicity, as anyone can engage in hood weeb behavior regardless of ethnicity.

Person: "I'm at my wits end.... like they're actively trying to dox everything. Hacking into one of my accounts and they are posting cp on it. They are trying to get my phone number, and they are trying to involve my other family members. Please anyone I beg you... help me"
Hood weeb: "Racist weebs when they have to fight hood weebs and not sensitive sheltered college grads." *Yamcha's death pose pic*
