In Peru they compete to say the best ‘Onii-chan’


In recent months, a video that captures a segment of the NOG Fest 2023 held in Peru has taken social networks by surprise and has become a viral phenomenon. The otaku event, known for bringing together fans of Japanese culture, featured a peculiar contest that has left many viewers feeling sad.

The segment in question consisted of a contest in which participants had to give their best expression of “Onii-chan,” which in Japanese is commonly translated as “big brother” or “little brother.” The peculiarity was that, depending on the applause of the public, the winner of the contest was determined.

What has led to this video becoming a trend is the comical and sometimes uncomfortable nature of the performances. Some participants chose to give an erotic connotation to their performance, which generated laughter and embarrassment among the audience and online viewers alike. The audience couldn’t help but react with surprise and, in some cases, disbelief at the daring performances.

The video has sparked a wave of memes and comments on social media, with users sharing their reactions and opinions on the participants’ bold performances. Despite the unusual nature of the contest, it has proven to be a reminder of the diversity and creativity present in the otaku community and its ability to create unforgettable moments.

  • «I am impressed that such an event exists in reality.».
  • «I’m Japanese, but this kind of video is very interesting. I am very grateful that you are so enthusiastic about Japanese culture. You don’t see this kind of thing every day.».
  • «I can’t imagine the smell that was in there. For God’s sake, not all of us who watch anime are like that.».
  • «I worry that the higher pitched it sounds, the more excited they get, and that’s something to worry about.».
  • «There is always so much marrufia at any festival or competition that takes place, everyone knows that the place was for the girl with glasses».
  • «People, everything is fine, but next time don’t let those who don’t bathe pass. It is almost impossible to remain thirty minutes without breathing».
  • «I’ve watched this video several times, and I still don’t understand what they see in the girl with glasses. The girl with purple hair who looked like a man but she was very embarrassed, she was the best for me».
  • «With each passing day, the apocalypse stops being a fear and becomes a hope».
  • «I wanted to give them another chance since my heart beats every day thanks to the otaku lifestyle, but oh surprise! They have disappointed me again. She didn’t deserve the award. You can tell that they were in cahoots by the way she looks at the judge, that she only went to try to defend her title knowing that she was still going to lose it. That’s too much. Another year in which being an otaku embarrasses me thanks to you and your juries».
  • «But if I started looking for logarithmic equations, how did I come to this video?».
  • «Why do they criticize those who are there? Yeah! We otakus are scum, but I think that before criticizing you should check if you are perfect. Face it, YouTube recommended them for a reason.».
  • «Jesus did not die to save us, he died to save himself».
  • «The one with glasses was good but I think she was overrated, perhaps because she was pretty, objectively the one who made the “onii-chan” that would look better in an anime was the cosplayer girl with blue hair».
  • «Every day otakus lose their dignity more. Oh no, wait, they already lost it. Oh right, they never had».
  • «This is it, my god, you’re screwed and I’m disappointed in this world.».
  • «I really don’t find it funny, but I see that they are fascinated by falling in love with 2D drawings, so much so that they look for the greatest resemblance in real life to girls dressed in their favorite series.».
