It sounds pretty good, but I'm reserving judgement on it for now... > On August 9, 2005 - 5:13 AM PDT GodEmperorAyato wrote: > --------------------------------- > btw, im making a list on movies that have otakus in them, so far ive got nadesico, comic party, genshiken, paranoia agent, and otaku no video.

Right off the top of my head, I can think of World of Narue, Nurse Witch Komugi, Cosplay Complex, and FLCL (Naota's dad). I know there are a bunch of others (it seems like a lot of animes have a token anime freak in the cast...) but the degree of otakudom is not generally high.

I chuckled throughout. there wasn' a real point to the anime other than the main characters rise from shy geek to -> ? its not a long series tho and is definitely worth a watch. The opening song to the sub-anime kujibiki unbalance is quite good imo.
