There are still plenty of tank otaku, tetsuota and the like, it's just that gacha games and vtubers have a wider appeal, so people that wouldn't even be considered otaku beforehand now classify themselves under the label using those products. More and more people from the mainstream are 'getting into' otaku-adjacent hobbies, so things with more mainstream appeal are seen as the face.

>obsessed with cool shit like tanks
i am though

And a lot of gacha and vtumours aren't even Japanese. Zetsubou-sensei (Kumeta) really wouldn't like that...

ZETSUBOUSHITA! DOMESTIC OTAKU GEEKING OVER FOREIGN HOBBIES HAS LEFT ME IN DESPAIR!

Autists were always exceptionally vulnerable to attention capture. Over time this has been perfected, and now we see the results. Only having either a very strong real life or spiritual orientation with special interests can one escape the gachaslop vshit goonfest dopamine swamp.

Even worse, I think we might all be dying too. Halfway through reading >>152547 my brain becomes incapable of processing what it says and I think may be indicative of some serious brain malfunction.

>>152547
or just by not being autistic

>>152547
I think the formula being perfected has only turned me off from it more because now I can see the man behind the curtain as he's gotten too fat to hide.

>>152549
Kind of comes with the being an otaku territory.
>>152551
Exactly the same for me. The lowest common denominator otakuslop is disgusting.

Gacha is just videogames but worse
Vtubers are just idols but worse
Truly hellish

I refuse to call them otaku and I don't care what vtuber and gachafags say. They're not dedicated, they just accept whatever is in front of their face like when you shake plastic toy keys in front of a baby.

While I was home joing to slop one night. Yukari appeared from nowhere and gave me a fright. She slopped down a slab of sloppy wet shabs. I expressed caution, explaining this slop will pop off my top. Stock shock crosses her top as she commands me to stop and move to the slop. I cannot refuse, her wisdom umatched as I meander my way over to the batch. And so starts the congo line of meat holes unable to think about anything but their new breeding stable. My room now sloppy with shag juices galore, countless slop slags slopping out from these whores. The slop bucket gifted by Yukari on the shelf now wobbles and wavers after overfilling itself. Slopping onto the floor I realize I'll need a bag as I'm sloppily shagging the current slop slag. My noggin's not rockin with the spunk smell stoppin my any thoughts aside from those of the shab I'm sloppin. The slop slags slurped up, I stare in shock. Could I have really escaped from this horrible bop? I put on my socks and wade to the mop so I can sweep up the dwelling infested with slop. Yukari appears once more, smug and still eager. She tells me now it's her turn to tug on my wiener. Sloppily slopped together shags she seems used to cause me to excrete my last into this 2hu. I tell her no more I'm already spent but she continues on seeming hell-bent. It's over, the schlocking sounds now subsiding as all the moisture left in me is drying. I see Yukari's face once more and cannot help myself but to adore. I'm glad at least I can happily rest with the face of a beauty who's giving her best.

I thought the broader idea was for otaku to support other otaku rather than giant corporations.

Another poor Anon claimed by the hag

God I wish that was me.

So to summarize, lyrical subject was masturbating to something low-brow, when Yukari appeared. She summoned (or created out of thin air) multiple girls and then each of them proceeds to have an intercourse with lyrical subject. At some point girls vanish, but then Yukari has an intercourse as well, exhausting lyrical subject. Despite that, the guy seems to be glad, looking at eagerness of Yukari.
Is the above correct or not? And how long did it take for you to write that? It has a nice rhythm in many places.

>>152568
You're precisely correct. Took me about half an hour or so. Started off as an exercise in venting out my frustrations with excessive 'slop' use and then I got carried away from there.

hikkis have stopped washing themselves and their clothes sadly so no more washing machine otaku are left

>>152547
Yeah, I've come to this way of thinking. This is probably the inevitability of chasing the low hanging fruits that are by far the most profitable. There are still lots of people out there creating amazing things, it's just that they're crowded out by gacha and vtubers. They're there if you look.
Sometimes I think it might be a good thing, it's like a black hole that sucks up a lot of undesirable people/stuff. Sometimes the evil gacha money is used for nice anime content, too. I'd prefer for it all to disappear, but at least it's not all bad.

>>152558
Very fantastic post! Yukari really is a nice young girl, isn't she?

>>152559
Real doujin culture was never a thing in the west anyway so it's not like we're in a position to complain.
