There's Hope For You Mutants Yet: Geeks, Freaks, & Gaywads The Hot Hunks In Japan
Just further proof of my theory that the Japanese are f'n' weird, man.
Though Torii may not know it, he's the type of guy who's apparently all the rage among Japanese women nowadays. Much of the media is currently smitten with the country's booming otaku culture. This has, in turn, led to widespread claims that the geeks, freaks, weirdoes and fatties who, like Torii, are collectively referred to as otaku, a group once largely shunned by women, are now being seen as the country's hottest hunks. Apparently, their appeal lies in the belief that the otaku are up for a purer form of love and are the obsessive types likely to become devoted to the one gal once they've found her.
Otaku Fever!
Catch it!
