Otaku Diaries
PLEASE LOOK FORWARD TO OUR UPCOMING POST:
Otaku Diaries Part 9: Anime in the year 21XX.
COMING MARCH 01, 2010
We at Reverse Thieves are looking to do something a little different.
We are proposing a project called the Otaku Diaries. We are looking for people who consider themselves anime fans to participate in an anonymous survey. It will be profiling the lives, loves, and losses of these individuals and how their hobby has related to shaping them. We will also be looking for patterns as well as differences in the cases. We are looking for diverse people who are not afraid to get personal, questions will include topics like prior relationships, profession, and sexuality.
This survey is about a story, not about numbers.
The whole idea of the project is to bring together each individual’s perception of anime fandom to see a clearer vision of the greater whole. In our series of blog posts, we will be looking at relationships, habits, and how they (the people we survey) view anime and how others in turn view them. We will also be doing posts about large commonalities between all the participants as well as major differences. Other posts may crop up due to the diversity of stories we receive but we won’t know what those posts will be till we read through all the information. We hope to receive as detailed answers as possible in order to gain a better understanding of each participant and anime fandom as a whole.
