CATDOLL: Anime ranks third among Japanese "old otaku" in a survey of their favorite activities

The preferences of young Japanese people are no surprise to people from all over the world. Just like the two specialties of Japan are anime and AV, it is obvious that young Japanese people love anime, but does this mean that the future of the Japanese people is about to end? Recently, a Japanese media published a survey report on "male challenges". In terms of "male passion", the media investigated the passions of Japanese people aged 30 to 40 and older generations. Among them, "animation and comics" ranked third, and "games" ranked fourth. These two items did not appear on other lists. In terms of conclusion, the survey results are very different, but at least it can prove that the Japanese are normal.

According to media reports, there are quite a few single men in their 30s and 40s in Japan, and there are also quite a few "old otakus" who take anime and games as their hobbies, but they are still a minority after all. So the editor can't help but think of a question someone asked: when you are old, will you still like two-dimensional anime?

The following are the survey results for people aged 30 to 40 (200 people, multiple choice):

Japanese people aged 30-80 are keen on work and travel, which means they are the most normal group of Japanese people.

Some Japanese people aged 30-40 are keen on anime and games, but the number is not high, and a considerable number of those who like anime and games are "old otaku"
