America’s Greatest Otaku to Debut on Hulu

Otaku(1) Americas Greatest Otaku to Debut on Hulu

Stu Levy, the guy who founded Tokyopop, the American manga distributor who introduced titles like Cardcaptor Sakura, is hosting a reality series called America’s Greatest Otaku. In it, he’ll be traversing the United States, 20 cities to be exact, interviewing different fans of the subculture at cons and such.
