I guess Otaku thinks he can just go around inventing new words. That’s fine, I guess, but… otakusphere?
Otakusphere?!?!
The sad thing is I know I won’t be able to resist using it. It’s going to leap out in conversation sometime soon. And I know I’ll get strange looks when it does.

And when is that talking cat from the first episode going to show up? From what I’m reading on the web, the studio only committed to 14 episodes. I don’t think they expected it to be such a runaway hit in the otakusphere. [...]

Heh. Just used “otakusphere” in an e-mail… we may have to arraign Fledgling Otaku for war crimes if it catches on.
Of course, I was writing about the popularity of Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya when I wrote it…
