Rating: - WOW
The story is easy to explain. It is the history of a fictional group of people who are fans of anime and manga. It is their struggle to make their love work for them, to start a business for fun and profit, fail, but try again till they win.
But the story is full of information only fans of anime and manga would understand. Mecha, cosplay, anime, manga, greed, romance, Robotech, science fiction, fantasy, sexy girls, money and the future of mankind itself! Live action scenes and an insert ... Read More
Rating: - Hilarious Parody Of Anime Fans: Excellent Mockumentary!
'Otaku No Video" is a highly recommended film that will have you laughing [providing you have a sense of humor]. This is a very good and funny anime video film of those who are obsessed with the world of anime, [known as Otaku]. The films interviews with anime fans had me in stitches in many scenes. There is a reason this film has a 5 star rating. The film is a really funny [and serious] look at fandom. And is very, very good. This film was originally released in two parts several years ago on VHS, ... Read More
Rating: - Otaku no Video is excellent!

I highly recomend picking both the video and ... Read More
Rating: - the culture of anime
For any nominally serious fan looking to know more about the culture behind classic anime, for die-hard Gainax fans or for psych/sociology majors researching the escapist motivations evinced by inhabitants of Sci-Fi fandom, this is absolutely required material. It's also one of my favorite discs.
A fictionalized account of how the key individuals at animation studio Gainax (Neon Genesis, FLCL) got into the business, Otaku No Video (graffiti of otaku generation) is one of a kind. Originally released ... Read More
Rating: - To dream the impossible dream! To become the Ota-King!
"Otaku" in Japanese means "honorable house," and is used as a derogatory slang term for anyone so into their hobby that they never leave their house. Devout hobbyist that the Japanese are, you will find many otakus, laden with cameras and photo gear, or comic books and anime cels.
"Otaku no Video" (Otaku's Video) is a mockumentary showing the slow descent into otaku-hood of Kubo, a young college student with a girlfriend and a scant interest in anime/manga. Through the bad influence of an old ... Read More
