You know, LN premises that glorify otaku culture and consumerism are really something else. It goes beyond the snake merely eating its own tail to sucking down its own shit thinking that it tastes amazing. I can't think of another medium that exists solely to validate and laud its readers' warped and self-destructive approach to society and social interaction so that they continue purchasing more in an endless cycle. It's an exploitative industry that consumes its own consumers by enveloping them in the delusion that their lifestyle is actually glamorous. Kirino and Kirito are the anime industry's Joe Camel.
