What is an otaku community?
An otaku community is a group of anime, manga and Japanese culture enthusiasts who chat, share their favourites and meet up at events. It often welcomes fans of video games, cosplay, K-pop and e-sport too.
When you’re a fan, the hardest part is finding the others: groups are scattered across several networks and events are announced all over the place. Scrole brings communities, events and messages together in one place.
