What Is "Oshi" Culture in Japan?

  • "Oshi" Culture has always been something I found super interesting about Japan, even before the vtuber boom. With vtubers and now Oshi no Ko, many have gotten to see it first hand, but the "Oshi" culture you might think you're familiar with is a bit different in Japan. For the record, Chisato is still my oshi. And yes I made this video because I realized fanboy over my oshi too much.

    It's crazy how Japan can produce an anime clearly aware of how toxic idol culture is while simultaneously making the industry a national icon.

    the sentence „more love then parents have to their firstborn“ is a sad but true statement xD
    My Kami-Oshi is Aqua xD
    but yeah the dedication fans have is insane sometimes
    All i have is Youtoube membership and birthday merch ^^

    Ngl Simping for irl Idols feels weird to me, Simping for 2d women feels good cuz you still have the seperation of Fiction and reality that no matter what you do you can never touch,kiss,hug,f*ck that girl.
    This is why I love Hololive Idol Culture since I can worship them at a safe distance while keeping my sanity.

      I get what you mean cause I think I'm also in a similar boat. I like the distinct difference in everything between a fictional and real person. It's fictional for a reason.

      @@redjoker Well the downside is that Objectifying them is more easy since you fap to Thier models not themselves and there ain't no sense of Guilt either since they fiction, It sounds Crazy and Sick but trust me I'd rather feel like this than end up in Jail lol

      it's nice to womanize an object instead of objetualize a woman (those words don't exist but I don't know how to write it properly)

      Agreed as a Bi person. I feel strange fantasizing about a real person. I prefer mutual respect in that category. But, Fictional characters are well, fictional. It’s easier. But maybe I’m the weirdo here. I’d still be hesitant with the fictional character, too 😭

    When I was watching lycoris recoil I thought I was watching the most popular anime of all time, but apparently I was way off (which isn't so bad I guess)
    Similarly, when I was watching this video I didn't expect it to have only 390 views. Man talk about underrated...

    When I was in middle school some of my female classmates obsessively talked about their favorite One Direction member. They didn’t carry merch of them, but consider that my first exposure to oshi culture. Now 10 years later I’ve got idol merch of my own. Funny how things work out

      When you put it that way, i guess even Western media has their own version of oshi culture

    It's actually funny to watch howthis culture growing and also is very good for business for the ones who creating this thing. On the other side it's very creepy in my point of view basically because you are spending all your time and money on that 'idol'. Personally I just find this as a very interesting phenomenon, how people may be controlled by a few people, who are forming this shit. But I don't want to be a person like this, for me it's very cringy and very odd like stans (no offense).
    Yeah, I have some waifus and best boys too but I'm not so obsessed with it

    • @redjoker

      I buy a lot of merch but yeah, I get what you mean. It can be dangerous to get way too emotionally attached to someone you don't even actually know.
