Why are they so often obsessed with anime and so grotesquely unkempt and greasy?

For the first part? Escapist fantasy with a built-in porn element. Seriously, anything that isn't plainly for the youngest of children has guaranteed fan service, regardless of what genre it is.

For the second? Their body isn't what they fantasize it to be--whether that's just normal jacked and chadded, or a more deviant desire--so they just stop caring about it. Eventually it gets to a point where, if they do start to put some work in, it still looks fucked up because of the long neglect.

Those are my guesses from here on the sidelines, anyway. YMMV.

I admit, I haven’t gotten into anime beyond the original Pokémon series when I was a high schooler… so I really didn’t know that porn was naked into a lot of it.

I do feel for anyone who has self image and esteem issues. Hell, I don’t even really judge them for whatever tickles their fancy behind their bedroom doors. But what I can’t do, is be okay with people dressing up in sexual roleplay outfits, and expecting the rest of us to play a role in their sexual fantasies. I can’t consent to that, and being told I need to celebrate that behavior or else, only makes me want to avoid people who act like that even more.

Apparently the anime poster that he has on his bedroom wall in that photo is one that heavily features child rape.
