otaku

The Japanese tern for "nerd" (not to be confused with "wibu, weaboo"), where "nerd" means someone who shows much interest on one particular topic, hence more knowledge on that particular topic compared to most other topics

My friend is a total otaku; he spends all his free time watching anime and collecting figurines, living and breathing Japanese pop culture.

chronic otaku syndrome

A person possessing chronic otaku syndrome is no regular otaku. They are obsessive over it.

These are the sorts of people which will watch 4 seasons in a few days.

Usually very cool

Person 1: "hey look person3 is watching Attack On Titan season 5"
Person 2:"yoo didnt they watch the first 4 of those in like 5 days?!"
Person 1:"yeah, they're totally a case of chronic otaku syndrome, they got it bad"
Person 2:"damnn"
