I suspect there’s a sinister plot behind this, but I got sent some very interesting pictures, and I’m guessing they want me to be the bad guy and show the world how idiotic otakus are, and scare them into behaving like good boys next year. Either way, I’m not one to pass up Dorama, so here goes.
Remember the hooha over the white autograph boards? The Internet has a short attention span so it has become history, but let us dig up the past and laugh at it once again. Pictorial evidence of how weirdass some otakus are.
"Pleaeeeeeeeeeease sign my SHERYL POSTER!!!! I COME FROM PENANG!!"
Seriously, WTF? Complete with backpack and waterbottle, the full otaku garb! Apparently the manager of May’n was disgusted and insisted he be kicked out, but the organisers took pity on him and gave him a whiteboard.
I don’t get it, May’n is NOT Sheryl, and even if she is, so what? Too bad his face isn’t visible. Now the question is, what would make YOU kowtow like that?
My own answer is, when 5 men with large spiky dicks are going to rape me unless I kowtow.
Was that really shot on the scene? Or a reenactment? I mean, didn’t he kowtow in front of bodyguards or something?
not to be encouraged of course. its one thing to be fanatical but this is abit too much.
95% of the people commenting on this entry and laughing at that guy secretly would do the same thing as him.
@Sasaki: Hell no. But then again, I can only speak for myself. *shivers at the thought*
ROFL. That was the guy standing next to me in the VIP section during the May’N concert.
If TJ is batman, who’s Green Lantern?
holy shit這是何等的濕態
I heard rumors of this picture exisiting….but I didn’t believe in them. All i have to say is WOW and LOL….Too bad no face shot.
Interesting… i actually didn’t know about it until the hoohaa over the whiteboards the day after AFA08.
Actually, I really pity him. A grown man actually begging, how embarassing.
It sickens me the lengths that ppl will go to dig up photos and humiliate a guy for the sake of getting hits on their blogs. He humiliated himself in front of ppl to get his autograph. He got it. Does his photo and identity need to be posted on the Internet for further humiliation? Geez.

@Seigi No Mikata: And he didn’t get his autograph.
@Stifler He did not?
Maybe I’m just not familiar with whatever culture he’s from, but I don’t see how doing the “kowtow” is humiliating to mankind. Isn’t it a sign of respect?
@Stifler: Well he got his whiteboard.
@double: Yeah yeah this is the internet blabla….it doesn’t forbid you to be an a-hole but neither does it condone you to. But hey…karma has a way of coming back so who am I to say?
There are lines not to be crossed for responsible blogging and this post has crossed that line despite what the majority thinks (ie: “Lulz what a loser…KOWTOW!”). Its pretty sad to see one of the more reputable anime blogs resort to this either as an ego boost or to receive more hits. And shame on the rest who are joining in the dorama bandwagon too.
[ID uh no...]
@My brother
That is correct. Join the “Defend Mr. Kowtow’s Dignity” Camp. I thought I was fighting this battle alone!
I’m not too sure what a whiteboard is. -wry- Had to move around a few pages to find out…and amazed at the drama this caused (and at that person’s ORZ moment).
lol, you guys are so cruel. Anyway, I’m sure he’s not the only person who would go to such lengths to beg for a signature
@Seigi No Mikata: He got his whiteboard, alright. He just didn’t get May’n autograph that poster of his, or on anything else he wanted signed.
dude must have confused suntec convention hall for the waterloo street temple
