OTAKU!

2018, Idenity, Design Academy

Manga has been dominating Japanese pop culture for years and lately it has become even more popular in the West. It has its own sub culture and fans of manga can be extreme. The most extreme are called otaku. Reading hunderds of manga, thousands of chapters, slowly everything starts to blur. The black and white silhouettes are all fundamentally the same. They are all filled with the same kind of techniques. It all starts to blur together, till all you see is manga. You lose yourself. You become part of the manga.
