Flag of the Otaku Culture
The “Hidamari”
Originally created by our own TE Anubis for 2019’s Otaku Pride Month, the “Flag of the Otaku Culture” symbolizes the cultural unity of otaku despite our disparate interests.
The emblem in the center is based off of one of Oda Nobunaga’s emblems, and represents unity. It also represents the five demographic groups of anime and manga (Shounen, Seinen, Shoujo, Josei, and Kodomo). The fifteen triangles surrounding the center emblem represent the fifteen major types of otaku:
Anime
Manga
Seiyuu
Cosplay
Figure
Maid
Idol
Game
Military
Train
PC
Eroge
AMV
Karaoke
Martial Arts
