Used when referring to someone who loves music (usually Japanese-
Pop) and has the intention of sharing their love of music with other
people though, music is the only thing they can talk about because most of the time, they will lack the required social skills to start and keep a conversation going for quite some time.
Usually, a Reptake would share their music tastes by sharing their favourite works from their favourite artists using the
Internet and would give their personal opinions of it but would rarely talk about it with someone either due to their lack of social skills or because the other person wouldn't be interested enough or would have entirely different music tastes
A Reptake would usually spend their free time listening to music and searching for more works that fit their tastes perfectly and after they find that certain
work, they would spend their time listening to it and appreciating it.
Though, just because they like music, it doesn't necessarily mean they are good st making music themselves, though they would try to gain some musical
talent, they would normally fail and continue appreciating other
people's
work to make up for their lack of musical
talent.
Example 1
Person A: Your son has such a knack for science, why
don't you make him pursue a degree in science?
Person B: I can't, even though he is
good a science, he's just a Reptake and all he ever does is listen to these anime songs or
whatever its called.
Person A: Ah, thats such a shame, if he did pursue a degree in something useful such as science, then maybe he'd have a bright future ahead of him.
Example 2
Person 1: Hey, have you heard of the song, Last Dance by Eve? Its such a great song. I loved the
guitar parts at the start and the end part, as well as the vocals. The vocals man, Eve's vocals were spot on, like they made the song just so much better and the instrumental just highlighted to vocals even more.
Person 2: Would it kill you to just shut up for
one fucking second. You're
one annoying ass Reptake.
