Get the Weeb mug.by UneverKnowWhoIam November 13, 2019
Get the Weeb mug.A derogatory term for a person who mentions anything about Japan (sometimes other Asian cultures too). Often shortened to weeb.
Originally it was a term for usually white people with an unhealthy obsession for and belief in the absolute superiority of japanese culture, called "wapanese", "wannabe japanese" or "white japanese". However today it has lost that meaning and became a simple insult to shame anyone for knowing anything about Japan.
Since japanese culture (or Asian culture in general) is relatively or becoming more popular in the west, the existence of the term could stem from an unspoken inner belief of one's own western culture being challenged.

Get the Weeaboo mug.a majority of anime fans are normal. weebs are a subset of anime fans who are obsessed with japanese culture to the point of racism. case in point is the J-Pop Talk Show - Saturday Night Live.
weebs are generally the weabo version of nice guys whose only possible interaction with other people is by sexualizing them. they lack respect for other people but demand respect from others. they also believe that weeb is a slur, but ironically the weeb circle is also a breeding ground for reactionaries like incels, racists and transphobes, who fight to maintain the use of transphobic slurs.
other problematic aspects of weeb culture is the unhealthy fetishization of LGBT people especially trans people, shown by genres like yuri, yaoi and a popular element of weeb culture which is trap, which perpetuate cisnormative anxiety and give rise to "gay/trans panic defense", the killing of LGBT people that is sanctioned by law in several parts of the world.
