Man: Have you watched the latest anime movie in cinema? It's a must-watch movie for every otaku.

A stereotype used for the creation of konata from lucky star, they enjoy manga, anime, yaoi, music, videogames, and cosplaying, they are athletic and good at sports, they may act innocent but they're perverts in reality and think about male x male relationships, and even female x female, most of the time they're hotter than the otaku girls from other parts of the world, but there are grotesque exceptions.
