Patrick Macias points us to some interesting images of the ‘stay-at-home’ Japanese generation known as Otaku. The photos show that despite their disinterest in leaving their bedrooms, they still seem to amass a lot of possessions – often around a particular theme.

There seems to be some similarities between these men and the monorcolorists New Yorkers who lived a single color scheme, no?
