* FunWithSubtitles: Whether unintentional or Manipulative Editing, the subtitles for the American ''Otaku'' interviewed are clearly different from the English he actually speaks. In particular, while "Shon Hernandez" talks a lot about how cool he finds anime and manga, the Japanese translation seems to have converted this into a slavish devotion for the superiority of Japanese media.

As an aside here, American anime fans call themselves "otaku" as a perverse mark of pride, and many of them are under the impression that it means "enthusiast". Not quite. Because of the obsessive nature of otaku and some heavily publicized news reports, in Japan, the word is often used in an extremely insulting way (bordering on obscenity). Many think of "otaku" as someone who's not simply so obsessed with something that he refuses to leave his home, but someone who's mentally ill. By contrast, the American usage is little more than a synonym for "{{geek}}", a word that is itself also being heavily criticized for a similar appropriation amongst the mainstream American population.

No such thing as partial subversion. A trope can be downplayed, but your information makes the example itself rather dubious.
