It is a group of friends who indulge themselves in comics, manga, anime and other nerdy things, also the hub for 99% of all jokes made in ones life, including the mystical Sphipher. They are also known as Too Many Otakus (TMO) and currently have 9 members and counting. They also play videogames and hang out on skype and chill in real life. They also run a silly Youtube channel titled TooManyOtakus.
