At the long-awaited premiere of the new film in the
popular franchise “ Uma Musume: Pretty
Derby ”, titled “ Uma Musume: Pretty Derby – Beginning of
a New Era ”, multiple attendees reported an unpleasant experience due
to a horrible stench that was perceived in the movie theaters .
According to several users on Twitter, the bad smell apparently came from some
otakus who attended the place without properly cleaning themselves.
Testimonies indicate that many of these
people tried to hide the smell with perfumes or deodorants ,
but without having actually bathed, which only generated a stench semi-hidden
under an intoxicating artificial fragrance . Complaints multiplied
on social networks, where users expressed their discomfort and surprise at this
situation.
The stereotype of the “stinky otaku who
doesn't bathe” is a common prejudice in society ,
which has been losing strength over time thanks to the growing acceptance and
normalization of otaku culture. However, incidents such as the one that
occurred during the premiere of “Uma Musume: Pretty Derby – Beginning of a New
Era” revive this ideology and put it back in the spotlight of trends.
The situation has sparked debate in the
otaku community about the importance of personal hygiene and the impact it has
on the public perception of anime and manga fans. In
conclusion, the premiere of “Uma Musume: Pretty Derby – Beginning of a New Era”
has been marred by a hygiene incident that has revived old stereotypes about
the otaku community.
