This is nothing new - Otaku or Otaku-zoku have been written about for years. Technology shut-ins, or ghosts.Yes, the Otaku (uber geeks) of the past who used to just collect comics, conduct a hobby to the extreme, or have other geeky behaviour are often inadvertantly enabled by family members (and the Internet) to completely shut themselves away.
Very weird on so many levels.
