Description: A giant snake lady sits in a lake. A man stands next to the edge of the lake and asks, "O snake of the lake, what is your wisdom?"

The snake replies, "Osamu Tezuka, the inventory of manga and anime, created old-school furry icons like Kimba and Bagi and had a secret collection of erotic furry art that he made which was only found after his death; so weebs are really just a human-focused offshoot of furries.

Are weebs even obsessed with Japanese culture, or just the children's entertainment and snack foods aspect of it?

Forgive my bluntness, but I've never had a weeb give me their thoughts on Murakami's latest novel.

Eh, I think it depends on the weeb. I'd say that most are obsessed with Japanese pop culture, however it also depends on the individual. I've known weebs who were basically just into the anime/manga depiction of Japan, while others had a deeper but equally romanticized understanding of Japanese culture.
