What does âotakuâ mean? If you use the word reffering poeple with obsessive interests, especially anime, manga, and girl pop stars called idle, it usually has a negative meaning so that I strongly recommend that you should not call someone otaku. Even though some might not care they are called otaku, but some are hurt and some get upset. On the other hand it is ok that you call yourself otaku if you don't care. If you love mathematics, you can call yourself math otaku. If you cant help buying clothes, you can call yourself clothes otaku. You can be any otaku. Sometimes people call themselves something otaku as a humor.
