Notes from the Void #4 » Fanime Date (no cosplay)

It sounds almost like he’s sneering at us…

Outside interests are important, of course, but, as an unrepentant fanboy myself, I’d rather know one “crazy cosplay otaku girl” than a hundred people like him.

Honestly, I’m not sure what he’s trying to go for, or what alternate universe he thinks we’re in. He wants his blind date to go to Midnight Hentai with him to “spice up the night”, but he doesn’t consider himself a “ridiculously geeky otaku fanboy” and he doesn’t want a “crazy cosplay otaku girl”. He’s not into cosplay, but at least he’s “open-minded about [looking at, not wearing] sexy cosplay dress-ups”. It probably made sense when he wrote it at 3 AM.

Who even goes to Midnight Hentai to “spice things up”? Midnight Hentai is comedy.

At least he may have a lot to offer the casually-fannish girl, despite his quirks. After all, he’s not into cosplay personally, but at least he’s “open-minded about sexy cosplay dress-ups”. Plus, as one friend put it, “The ALL CAPS NO SCAMMERS YOU BASTARDS! at the end is a nice little cherry on top. It says ‘Not only am I desperate and clueless, I may be mentally unstable.’“
