I’m lower on the scale so please forgive my ignorance. What is a web exactly?
Weeb is the one that would be at the top of the bell curve there.
Like I said in my original post: They are effectively the Anime equivalent to the Gamer stereotype.
They are the kinds who are always mixing Japanese in with their English. They obsess over Japan even if its ignoring stuff that is historically wrong (they are the kind who argue that the Katana is some sort of super-sword when in reality it is inferior to most European swords from the same time period...and both are inferior to polearms). In extreme cases, they are the kind that go around with the hentai jackets on. And they are usually fat with titanic amounts of BO.
But much like with gamers, they are actually a smaller portion of the fandom than you would think since most Anime fans are just normal people. They are just the loudest and most obnoxious, so they are the ones who get made fun of.
weeb is short for weaboo, an internet term for people obsessed with all things Japanese
Thanks!
