Trying to say "David" is as awkward for them as "Davido" sounds to us. It's just very natural for
them that every consonant is followed by a vowel sound.
You literally couldn't write David in japanese, a close approximation would be ダヴィド, Davido.

You know what's really great? The fact that he thinks that he could fit in in Japan. What's great
about it isn't the fact that he wouldn't fit in because he's a bit weird. Instead, he's
overlooked the small fact that even if you've been living there for years, you're always
considered an outsider because you're not native Japanese.

They are bullying him. To the general populous in Japan, being an otaku is not a good thing. He
basically commits all the social taboos you can over there regarding otaku culture.
Honestly, since he seems competent enough in Japanese to get by, and his apparent love for the
culture and stuff, I'm amazed he didn't realize he should keep his love for this stuff on the
down low. Once they started insulting him outright, you'd think he'd get a clue or two and tone
down the craziness.

Christ dude, it's not like you starts off fluent. Them being weeaboo shouldn't increase your
expectation of standards. The dude was barely following along with the conversation, so it's
clear he is a novice, probably only learning what he knew in his stay there by being immersed in
the culture. He probably doesn't have any local friends he can really bounce language information
off, so he'd have to learn through trial.

as a matter of fact they would be persecuted even more in Japan, as evidenced here. Not only is
that "otaku" shit severely frowned upon, but he also has racism to deal with. Plus he's fat. A
fat white weeaboo is pretty fucking low on the social ladder in Japan, even more so than in the

That's not true. Having figurines aren't really that looked down upon. It's when you have shelves
of them and tons of posters and shit that it starts to become a question of your hobbies.
The problem with otakus is the concept of reservation. They're so into it that it is their lives,
and it really shows in a number of ways. You can still like anime, manga, and that sort of thing
and not be an otaku over there.

Never mention it.
Never spotted watching it.
Never posses a single piece of merch.
Then wear a bishoujo itashirt just one day, see how zero-effect it really turns out.
Same goes for figurines. We're not talking about your fucking Batman fig, we're talking about the
immediate mental swerve that happens the very microsecond someone lays eyes on your Sailor Moon
fig, even if they know you well.
Logic vanishes. Objective analysis of the historical data they have on you is instantly abandoned
