We have met otaku … and they are us

Do you find yourself reading manga, playing video games, and fantasizing about your favorite characters all day long? Feel like you’re not really being understood by the people around you, no matter how much you try to express your feelings—or not? The struggle is real for so many people that now “otaku” isn’t just a term describing people into manga and anime—it’s its own manga and anime genre!



To celebrate all things otaku—and the debut of Wotakoi: Love is Hard for Otaku (volume 1 goes on sale April 17), this week only, Kodansha Comics is hosting our inaugural Otaku Manga Sale at all of our digital retail partners: BookWalker, comiXology, Google Play, iBooks, Kindle, Kobo, and nook.

So what’s your otaku fandom? Check out the full list below:
