Manga shyness????!! djrem5: If it's one thing Ive noticed about fellow manga readers is that they are often very shy. I don't realy understand it but they really don't talk much. Most of the time my conversations with these friends are really short because they are so shy... Well I picked a great place to expect any sort of reply, please prove me wrong. Lira: <P>Well,I think that is true.I love manga too but when I talk about it to my friend,well,it really really make me shy.You know when they begin laugh at me and tell me that I was really crazy over manga.I try to not talk about it anymore among my friends,but I Can't.I really love manga!</P> mcs90: This isn't new to me; I know someone who is just like this.<BR>It's not true for me, though. I always try to get my friends and other people into manga/anime. And I don't stop talking about it till they're interested. It works, too! death_note_girl_16: hey i read manga all the time and i'm not shy at all! i love to meant new people and do new things. anthiena: It depends on the person, I suppose. I used to be rather shy, but I am less shy now than I used to be. I tend to be extremely quiet, though. PockyGirl: I think it depends on the person, I've tried to speak to a stranger in the library and this one freaked out o_O perhaps I'm to open and bold to do that Vanr: Yo i love manga and i have friends who love it to. so i can talk with them about it or i can just ask what a great one to read. so i don't know what peoples problem. i love manga and proud of it sesshylover: I read manga and i love the anime but seriously i've never talk to onother person about it so it be so cool that i can get involved in this club!!!! Local_Authoress: I am super-open about manga. But all my friends except for 2 only watch the anime, so they don't know if there's a part in the manga that isn't on the anime. Which means I can't talk about everything!!!!!!! Local_Authoress: I am super-open about manga. But all my friends except for 2 only watch the anime, so they don't know if there's a part in the manga that isn't on the anime. Which means I can't talk about everything!!!!!!! Ziaz: I enjoy reading manga my self i think its is better then the anime but that my thought on the matter i would like to know what kinda of mange people read Weird_one079: i can totally understand the shyness thing especially since the mere act of reading it is viewed as something childish because i'm not going to lie especially since i love reading them so much but truth be told...they're comic books. so usually when someone asks about them they get sneered at by the people who sell them or even mocked by parents and sometimes...friends neglected_always: ahm people who are shy maybe express their feeling through manga...it can reflect to what they are reading or how they draw mangas...i use to draw mangas so maybe people around me thinks me as unpredictable... hasial (hazel): i like manga ALOT...but when i mention it 2 my friends they think i'm crazy...but that never made me feel shy about it since its my hobby...i read manga 3-4 times a week at onemanga.com...but its not really a passion...do i really sound crazy because i read manga...?
searching1989: hey just joined the club. im also shy to talk about manga or anime to mi friends or family they see it as me just watching little kids cartoons Lord Kyo: Ive had people ask me what manga is but never got any weird reactions, could be that most of my coworkers are asian and are into manga, anime, and asian cinema too. Nicky: MM well well, it depends of the kind of person ure talkin to isnt? cuz u never now, sum ppl accept it without laughing and sum of them do, especially becuz they think u have a childish mind =S..on my school everybody knows I draw manga (for no reason I was famous for that XD) but all my life Ive been shy, but when I talk about anime and mangas I get so inspired and talk about ir lie another normal stuff...and if they say its crap I defend it for wtver bad reason they said cuz for me its a very interesting art, is my passion, my life and my dream jorge_sp: hi to all the club! this is my first post. first I´m jorge, a otaku from spain . I like very much Bleach, Gantz, trinity blood... and many other series. I´m shy in the first contac, but in the second i´m very funny person. (be otaku my friend!) vjs38: i 2 say it depends on people me im not shy but people they might look shy but after knowing them they might b the most craziest person of all jorge_sp: i´m the same. many people thinks that we are a shy and alone persons, but i like have many friends and go out to partys and meet people. manga is a hobbie, but I have many others BOSSLES: i think it depends on the manga they are readin and the character u compare urself with for example in naruto when u are an hinata fan u would what 2 be like her Poerts: Sort of a guilty pleasure for me. I enjoy it, but I don't go out of my way to read it. I also tend to avoid mentioning it at all unless the other person is a confirmed nerd. The artsier stuff is a bit of an exception. Edit: Also, since I just realized this is more about the shyness of manga nerds, then yes, I've noticed as well. Mostly because nerds in general tend to be shy, and nerds are the most likely to obsess over this sort of thing. | hobbies Chat Room Similar Conversations |
