Thoughts on Nogizaka Haruka 01-03: On Being an Otaku, Closet or Not.

I was still on the verge of deciding whether follow this series, and episode 3 officially seals the deal for me. The more I watch this anime, the more I see myself in the closet otaku Haruka. She constantly reminds me of my past, present, and probably my would-be future otaku self. Her bitter experience of being shunned for her otaku hobby might have been portrayed to be a little extreme, but it really happens. I’d say it actually happened to me, in a less dramatic the entire school shuns me for being an otaku way, and more of the subtle ‘shunning’ treatment stereotyping ways.
