Hmm, I understand what you mean. With that in mind, I'd probably leave eroge, comike etc as such.
The western anime-fandom is kinda weird in this sense. I know there'd be alot more people into eroge and other stuff, if they knew the Japanese language. I guess that just means you can't be an hardcore fan until you know the language, even in the west. Well, it _is_ a Japan based media/genre/hobby/whatever, afterall.
I still wouldn't say every non-Japanese speaking western anime fan is equal to Saki, though. :P
EDIT: Unless you're saying they are Saki towards the Japanese Otaku, rather than Saki towards Otakunism in general.
