I was inspired by the Japanese otaku culture and modern adolescents’ social media lifestyle. Otaku culture is a complex social phenomenon, which not only stems from huge social pressure and alienated interpersonal relationships but also a personalized manifestation of adolescents' self-consciousness. The increasing pressure of social competition makes them more willing to seek a world that is truly dominated by their own will on the Internet. In fact, the rapid development of the world’s network industry is also the result of turning people’s lives from actual social interactions to virtual online contact. We see different people’s lives and share ours on social media, which brings motivation to live and creates various beautiful things inspiring others. I really love a sentence that came from the otaku culture, “although I am not rich, I have a warm home in the online world."
