Quote:A “fictosexual” man who wed a fictional, computer-synthesized pop singer four years ago said he’s now unable to communicate with his wife, but is still in love with her.

Akihiko Kondo, 38, was dating Hatsune Miku — depicted in pop culture as a 16-year-old with turquoise hair — for a decade before they had an unofficial wedding ceremony in 2018. Kondo — one of many who identifies as “fictosexual,” or someone who is sexually attracted to fictional characters — spent 2 million yen, or about $17,300, on the nuptials, but his family did not attend.

Now married for four years, Kondo, 38, said his relationship has hit a roadblock: He can no longer speak with Miku due to a technological hurdle, according to Japanese newspaper Mainichi.

This is mental illness amplified by possibility. I can not word it differently.

I think many of my generation can maybe relate to having a crush on a TV character or even fictional comic character. That may sound strange to someone not having access to TV with such series in their childhood, so gen X, Y and Z may be able to relate the most. 

But it's just that, reflecting on it now it may be personal preferences mirrored by the character and it vanes after time, as we grow up. However such things can turn into obsessions and I think that's exactly what it is. Mental weakness, isolation and echo chambers help it flourish.

It's also testifies the huge problems we have in our society and highlights the isolation especially in some Asian countries likw Japan or Korea, where I feel most stories come from. It's also where the uncanny sex robots come from. There are not a lot of taboos in for example Japan when it comes to sexuality in the own 4 walls, even though it seems on the surface and in public, everything is done to save face on these topics.

I mean, dirty panty vendor machines, an obsession with school girl themed porn, bestialities... just to pick Japan as an example. But in real life, out there, everyone is trying to safe face and blend in with the mass. But in the bedroom oh my... So I think it was only a question of time that more strange things develop and Archer comic series has exactly that themed with Krieger's holographic wife that he allegedly murders every night (as she can be rebooted).

IDK, deep down inside me I think people can do what they want as long as they don't harm others but I can not help feeling a mix of sadness, pitty and a skewed kind of understanding why someone would talk themselves into something like that. It's like make believe turned reality and is a slippery slope for all kinds of detoriations further down the road of society.


Oh quick add: Germany is similar! A lot of Germans do funky things in hiding, but on the outside they are all harmless sheep and only do it missionary :D
But does it have at least one hole? That’s the important stuff.
