Kodera pieraksti…

Some theoretical list I made myself…

LVL 1 – you watch some anime trough stage6, youtube and alike services, when you are already bored by WoW level-up and have completed all known Star Wars games;

LVL 2 – you find out about anime torrents, start watching mainly moe or slice-of-life anime and you actually like it;

LVL 3 – now you find Lucky Star cool, and actually understand at least 70% from it;

LVL 4 – you start watching action anime, eg. Naruto and alike. You have no problem in reading right-to-left manga panels;

LVL 5 – buying otaku stuff is ok, spending money on food is not ok. You wonder why in hell you don’t have chair with uninterrupted food supply and integrated toilet;

LVL 6 – you can show your hug-pillow (or pillows) to your friends (if you still have at least one);

LVL 7 – watching anime in public is ok for you;

LVL 8 – you can discuss hentai in public, japanese has become your native language, in your backpack you can always find a laptop full of anime and a katana for self defence (if suddenly Albion forces attack ^-^ );

LVL 9 – you do cosplay, you show your hug-pillow to parents and introduce it as your girlfriend, you decide to screw reality for good;

LVL 10 – those rare real world glimpses are automatically converted into anime-style pictures, your room has no items that cannot be related to some anime, someone comes once in a month to check if you’re still alive, on AniDB you have more than 50% watched anime.

P.S. At least now I know the purpose of life…
