How does one fully self-actualize as an otaku?Is watching Haruhi Suzumiya, Lucky Star, and Azumanga Daioh mandatory?Am I required to purchase figures, tankobon and an IKEA BILLY bookcase?Is there a recommended curriculum or do I just keep buying things until I feel complete?

>>51348318you gotta drink a gallon of suntory toki and climb shinjuku nomura tower cosplaying as jūbei kibagami there is no other way good luck
>>51348318You posted 3DPD. This automatically disqualifies you as a 2D Otaku.
>>51348318If you're viewing this or any hobby as some sort of consumerist checklist, just save yourself the trouble and tap out now.
Creating/producing and the mandatory organic passion to do so in the first place.You don't even have to be talented/skilled, "producing" could be as simple as taking part in some discussion of something overlooked, forgotten, or an ancient fandom. Just these theoreticals have formed frameworks/ideas for works of media that would themselves carry on a similar legacy.Also using the...unique perspectives and curcumstances that tend to follow this subculture to create something that it in itself perpetuates these kind of questions and media.
You don't self-actualize as an otaku until you are fully content with yourself and you feel like a god sitting in your dark basement lair listening to 15+ year old doujin music.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NWHGjptbrJo
