More Otaku no Video is a fascinating dive into the otaku culture from the 80s. It marries animation with live-action interviews, creating this quirky, sometimes absurd atmosphere. The pacing has this weird charm, moving smoothly between the animated segments and the real-life accounts of hardcore fans. You see this average guy transforming into the 'Otaking'—it's kind of relatable and yet hilariously exaggerated. The humor is sharp, but what stands out is how it captures the essence of obsession without losing its light-hearted touch. The animation style reflects that vintage feel, which is a nice treat for collectors who appreciate the early days of anime. It’s like a time capsule of a subculture that was just starting to bubble up.
