Is it really that bad?

Like idk why but every HS manga I've read, weeabos or anime fans are seriously hated or bullied? Is it really that weird of a thing in Japan?

For context I come from the UK, and to be fair I'm much older than HS (im in my 20s) but even during secondary school and university I've always proudly said I love anime, comics and kpop and I've never been bullied for it?

    I’m from the U.K. too (20s also!) but I was always wondering that about Asian countries too, in HS I’ve never had an issue with anyone nor have any nerdier people I’ve seen who like this anime etc, Idk why it’s a big deal there when most of the stuff is generated there... so strange

    yes, otakus are still not socially accepted in japan. basically being different is still considered bad
