Nogizaka Haruka no Himitsu is set at the private high school Hakujo Academy in Japan and centers around the male protagonist Yūuo Ayase and his classmate Haruka Nogizaka. While Yuto is rather ordinary, Haruka is very attractive, intelligent, and rich. Due to this, she is the school's most unattainable girl and is so idolized that her classmates give her the French nicknames "Nuit Étoile" (The Silver Star of the Night) and "Lumière du Clavier" (The Shining Princess on the Piano). One day, Yuto's good friend Nobunaga Asakura asks him to return a book to the school library, and when he goes to return it, Yuto stumbles across Haruka and her darkest secret — she is a diehard fan of anime, manga, and the otaku culture. Yuto promises to keep her secret hidden and in return he becomes her confidante of sorts as he accompanies her to Akihabara, and visits her home often.
says hu female otakus have to be disgusting... this cute girl in my school that everyone likes is an otaku...except she knws how to dress up and stuff.
Really, otakuism brings me many friends and bcoz of it my gf like me (praise otakuism ). When is the trend of rich girl bcoming otaku started since? It has bcome a stereotype quite lately.
this is what otagei is =D *note: the guys* its somehow like a dance for hardcore otaku whom usually goes for seiyuu and underground akiba singer. (as long as its moe to them xD) they dance that according to the music. same step but every song different.

Your mind is the greatest trap ever engineered and it wasn't made by someone else but absolutely caused by yourself. A trap only exist if you think its a trap. eg. Stepping on a landmine. Its only a trap if you think someone set you up but in fact it is not a trap and someone just accidentally dropped there. Same as being shown a beautiful male who looks like a girl. It only becomes a trap when you think he is a male but the trap does not exist when you continue to think he is a she.
