The Otaku Scale. How Otaku are you?

[Ross]

If I had to rate myself, I's probably have to say I'm about 40% or so, which is "Full-time otaku (past the point of no return)" on the website... that sounds about right.
*Takes the quiz thingy*
Hmm, ehh... I don't know if I should be embarrassed or proud of this, but I got 61%, which according to that website, makes me a "Shameless otaku!" ...
...
Well, either way, I'm a hardcore anime druggie... Yes indeed.

Also, If you have any suggestions for anime I just 'have to see', please let me know.

If Azumanga Daioh is your favorite (it's my favorite too ) then I'd say watch other anime of that genre. Lucky Star, Nichijou, etc.

And don't forget K-On. Lucky star is my favorite =3.

Thank you, Zil
Thank you, gammaraptor

I will definitely be looking into your suggestions.

[OverCoat]

I'm a numberless but enthusiastic anime newbie but wasn't always that way.

I used to torment a young man I know by saying, "You're not watching those strange cartoons again, are you?" with added emphasis on the word 'cartoons'. "You're way, way too old for cartoons," I'd say, chuckling to myself. This went on for quite a while.

Anyway, one day he said to me, "They're not cartoons, they're anime and before you continue on with those comments, why don't you watch one so that you'll know what I'm talking about,".

I thought he had a point there. Though not fully convinced, I thought, at the very least, watching one or two would bolster my 'cartoon' theory so I figured I had nothing to loose...oh, boy, I was soooo naive  back then

That reminds me of a story

SON I AM DISAPPOINT

Indeed  :3

[Power]

I'd say about a 2-4 on that scale.  Couldn't really care much about anime.  I'd say I'd at least finish one season a year.  Maybe it's because I watched it on a Chinese website but eh.   :derp:  I kind of do want to get those figurines because they look awesome but than I thought video games are more better then that so yeah.   :V

Well that put being single on Valentine's Day in perspective - I haven't reached this point yet.

You can take solace in the fact that you are not alone in your lonesome

[Aquamentis]

78.5% otaku pure (21.5% otaku corrupt)
This is rather funny  to be honest, since it doesn't take into factor if you've ever taken breaks from anime or the like.

[Nekomata-chan]

I'm 51% otaku pure, 49% otaku corrupt.
Am I messed up?

To answer my own question: Hell yeah no!!

[Avan Nozomi]

Old quiz, but I got 30% Otaku. Sounds about right, but I thought I'd be higher up on the scale.

[HyperGumba]

Your otaku Purity Test Results

You answered "yes" to 87 of 200 questions, making you 56.5% otaku pure (43.5% otaku corrupt).
Your Weirdness Factor (AKA Uniqueness Factor) is 21%, based on a comparison of your test results with 91823 other submissions for this test.

I... am not too suprised. I am a poor person however, and can't afford several things, which I would buy if I had the finances for that...

... But really. I am much, much weirder than 21%. At least when I compare myself to my environment...  :ohdear:

[Ghaleon]

I'm 91% pure, and I was answering yes to technical nos too. (Like "do you name yourself online after an anime character". I said yes, even though Ghaleon isn't in any animes I know, Lunar has anime-style art, so I said yes...I also said yes to others that would be yes for Touhou, even though it's not technically anime >=P).

The test however, I think gives favoritism towards people strictly into anime. I think it's possible to be slightly "otaku" without necessarily being an anime nut by being big into anime-based videogames like myself, or for those people who are heavy into manga...Honestly have no clue if there are manga fans that don't like anime though.

[Zil]

I'd much rather read manga than watch anime, myself. Especially in certain dialogue/comedy driven genres manga is much better in my opinion.

And I was thinking the name Ghaleon was from Lunar Legend. Been ages since I played it. :derp:

[Ghaleon]

I haven't actually played lunar legends yet since I don't own a PSP. But I've heard bad things about every lunar game that is newer than eternal blue. But yeah, same Ghaleon. Not anime, videogame, but...it's pretty much anime-inspired so I said yes.

[Zil]

The one I played was for GBA, not PSP. I don't know anything about the series other than that one game though, so maybe the PSP version is a remake.

Anyway, I think I'm going off topic here.
