Someone who pretends to be a weeb because of the recent trend of anime being "cool", they usually call themselves an "anime fan" but have only watched 1-2 episodes of Naruto/DBZ/Any other overrated anime.

A gamer degenerate who's only into ecchi, hentai, or shounen. A fake weeb goes to anime conventions drippy with some fit jeans or joggers and yeezys, a backpack only with a deku box, and snacks preferably churros to make room for figurine and poster merch, but really is only there to try to pickup female weeaboos or koreaboos.

A person who watched only mainstream anime like Dragonball or Naruto and say he is a dub hater but watch it as dub.
A fake weeb will also like haikyu or food wars

a person that does not know any thing about anime like if you ask who is this and show a kakashi photo and they anwer with NaRutO

fake weeb is nothing like a fake weeb girl, a fake weaboo girl will say she loves hatsune miku and say she's their waifu and think liking Minecraft and the sanrio franchise is a personality trait, these girls are always fucked in the head, NEVER DATE THEM! get a girl that actually waste
her time of anime, manga and osu
