When I eventually met up with Craig at the bar, the first thing he said after our friendly hellos and my apology for changing things around last minute was: “I like that you didn’t cancel on your friends.It shows a lot about you and made me even more excited to see you.” I was off to a great start, but that didn’t last.We have build a nearly complete database of anime, manga, and conventions.As you add these to your profile, we use that data to find some of the most compatible fans near you.Intentionally manipulating a guy or playing games will always backfire because no guy wants to feel like he’s being yanked along on a destination-less journey.

When your happiness is rooted in all sorts of things, not just him, you will never have to watch what you say or do for fear of coming off as needy because you will never be needy.

These are people similar to you in interests, tastes, age, and location.

You can choose to chat with these people to find dates, or you can participate in our forums to make new friends.

When you join Mai Otaku (pronounced My Otaku), the first thing to do is list your favorite anime (from our list of all of them) and any conventions you have attended.

We match your list, mixed with your basic stats (birthdate, orientation, location), to find other fans like you who are near you.
