Yea.. i cried...

everytime i watch Densha Otoko, tears will fall.

Not that its sad... its just.. touching.

Oh, for those who don't know what that is, Densha Otoko 電車男, is a Japanese movie, TV series, novel and manga. Its about an Otaku (japanese geeks) who fell in love with a pretty and rich gal. The story revolves around how this Otaku gets his courage from anonymous web forum and its "inhabitants" to date the gal.

What really appeals to me is how raw it feels to me... like him, i'm an otaku... a games & anime otaku. Our lives revolve around these, never to go beyond. Love is like a foreign word to us.

What brings me to tears is how, being anonymous users, can band up and give their moral support to another anonymous user in a forum.

What brings me to tears is how, even a pretty gal, would choose a guy as plain looking, as geeky looking.. and an Otaku no less!

Its a love story made for the Otaku.



So. what about me? I hold no high hopes. After all, its just a tale.

But its good to cry on a good show once in a while.
