Mexico: An otaku caught dancing on the subway


Surreal situations are happening all the time in Mexicoand one of them occurred within the subway facilities in the capital, Mexico City. The video of an otaku girl dancing enthusiastically while waiting for the transport unit became a trend, attracting positive and negative comments. While there is no problem with someone enjoying their hobbies, there is a problem when people start to generalize and think that “all otakus act like her.”

In the video we can see a girl, identified on social networks as “Jane Leik”, wearing a black skirt, long socks with bows, a black blouse with pink, gloves and a headband with cat ears. In her footwear she wears boots with high heels. In her posts on Instagram and TikTok we can see that she usually does this type of dance in public places constantly.

In fact, the video he makes is inspired by the “Chika Dance”, shown in the first season of Kaguya-sama: Love is Waralthough it is quite strange that he decided not to add the original song in the video.

Anyway, people on the Internet quickly shared the video with a wide variety of edits (especially audio), adding songs or visual effects. Thus, the video of just eight seconds easily added millions of views and a wide variety of comments.highlighting:

  • «I wish I had the courage you have, I would die of shame doing something like that in front of unknown people.».
  • «Haha, I can’t take the look on the faces of the people who are passing behind».
