Are weebs even obsessed with Japanese culture, or just the children's entertainment and snack foods aspect of it?
Forgive my bluntness, but I've never had a weeb give me their thoughts on Murakami's latest novel.
Eh, I think it depends on the weeb. I'd say that most are obsessed with Japanese pop culture, however it also depends on the individual. I've known weebs who were basically just into the anime/manga depiction of Japan, while others had a deeper but equally romanticized understanding of Japanese culture.
