I'm having a hard time conjuring outrage over this. It's weird that his tastes seem to get him labelled some abhorrent deviant on a gaming forum.
 
The guy enjoys his hobby and travelled to Japan to enjoy it even more. Good on him. Some of the shaming in this thread is strange. The guys should enjoy what he enjoys and shouldn't be ashamed of it.
 
nobody roasted my room picture so I must be doing something right.
Its terrible quality though. No idea how to compress a panorama picture without losing the image quality.

It's just that your room looks a lot more balanced towards the anime side, instead of the young girls thing, and your posters don't look sexualized to the degree this man's room does.
 
Hentai is just the Japanese name for animated porn. It does not need to be more hardcore than average porn, which hentai fans refer to as "vanilla hentai".

That's not true. The word Hentai (変態)means transformation/abnormality/metamorphasis or pervert. The word for "animated porn" is just ero anime or エロアニメ. エロ simply stands for erotic and can be a prefix to practically anything, that's where the term erogee エロゲー comes from.

I would like to paint my car like that and drive it through the city.

Yeah, hentai=anime porn is a term used by people outside Japan.

You are correct, I was going from its international for the purposes of explaining it to that poster. In Japan, the usage is far more narrow.
 
I tried to read the "moe" thread but it was just too difficult to get a proper explanation. It was the most uninformative 5-page thread I've ever seen on GAF.
Moe = something that gives an overwhelming feeling in ones heart.

Trust me, I have a PhD in the subject.
