haha. "Otaking!" I remember that from Otaku no Video.

I guess it's a bit annoying but I think I'm a little used to it. Especially the words used in the quote: sugoi, baka, otaku. I go to the anime club at my college every week and I hear those words. I also hear unforgivable (the word for it I can't remember) a lot. Oh yes, and kawaii, can't forget kawaii.

Anyway, I thought sugoi meant incredible, not "cool."

and an edit cuz of ashibaka's edit:
yeah, it is annoying when they stop and tell you what the japanese words mean right after they use each one. In that case, I'd call them a baka (that's Japanese for idiot!

)
