When your white american friend acts japanese and watches more anime than he/she should.
Person 1: "Hey, did you watch that last epsiode of Naruto?

Person 2: No! I'm not a weabou like you!
Weabou by TheWordNinja October 5, 2018
A negative term directed to anyone overly obsessed with Japanese culture to the point where they become annoying.Used frequently on the image boards of 4chan.

Most weaboos are uneducated about their obsession of choice and are often noobs who are overly zealous, trying to impress others with their otaku knowledge. Another trait of a weaboo is their desire to "be Japanese".

While the two terms are often fused together, weaboos are very different from anime fans or enthusiasts. A fan may be just as enthusiastic and knowlegable
about Japanese culture, mainly anime, but they neither boast about their knowledge nor call themselves otaku(because of its known negative connatation).
Weaboo: Liek OMG, did anyone see the Inuyasha Movie 3 on teh the Cartoons Network last night! LOLZ Sesshomaru is SO HOTT!!!

Weaboo 2:I hope the Naruto fillers end soon LOL

Humble anime fan: STFU weaboos
weaboo by Sir DJ Twizzler August 15, 2006
A kid or teen, usually American, who wants to become Japanese. They spend most of their time watching anime, reading manga, and playing video games. They think that they know so much about japanese culture, but in fact know practically nothing. The easiest way to spot a weaboo is through the way they talk. They will over use many Japanese words including

Sugoi
Kawaii
Desu
Senpai
And that's about it.
Weaboo: OMG! SUGOI KAWAII DESU!!
Other person: not another weaboo...
