A reality show made by otaku for otaku, America's Greatest Otaku is a revealing eight-episode documentary series that searches the United States for the number one American otaku (uber-passionate fan of anime, manga, games, and Japanese pop culture). Each episode follows TOKYOPOP founder, entrepreneur, and filmmaker Stu Levy and his apprentices, the Otaku Six (six college students that are self-proclaimed die-hard otaku) as they travel across the country, visiting Otaku Hotspots (locations rich with otaku appeal) and searching for the one person who personifies what it means to be an otaku.
After years spent vanquishing evil in Dikay, out-of-work warrior Van Von Hunter (Yuri Lowenthal) finds himself trying to make things happen in Hollywood. But when two vindictive directors ruin his rep, he's forced overseas to Japan, where the locals really fall in love with him. Steven Calcote and Stuart J. Levy direct this tongue-in-cheek mockumentary about celebrity, fame and the power of hero worship.
