I agree with you. People who read manga know what it means to love a fictional character (or more than one.) Of course, he didn’t know it was possible to marry a voice synthesizer, but if he’s happy, who are we to judge?
Love is universal. I also love a fictional character. Not to the degree this man does, but still. Every time he appears on the screen, be it in videos or games, I feel happy. I bet most of us do it to varying degrees. The biggest problem here is that companies capitalize on love

While Others Were Not So… ୧((#Φ益Φ#))୨
Couldn’t a character of legal age be found? Nasty
I mean makes you think what made him get to that point he must have been hurt really bad
If my friend convinced himself that a rock he found was a thinking breathing woman and married it. I’d believe it was indicative of an underlying mental health issue he needs to confront. It shouldn’t be illegal. That doesn’t mean I think it’s good for him.

According to the New York Times, Akihiko Kondo is married to the fictional character Hatsune Miku, a computer-synthesized pop singer who has toured with Lady Gaga and has starred in video games. According to this 38-year-old man, his relationship with the fictional character helped him out of a deep depression. Kondo knows that people think he’s weird, and he also knows that Miku isn’t real. However, he said that his feelings for the fictional character are very real even though people think that with time he will get over it.
Undoubtedly today we have much to reflect on affective bonds. These new ways of perceiving relationships are highly sensitive issues because they involve real people. The truth is that it is necessary to take ourselves seriously and think critically because new technologies have changed our lives, the way we connect, and the world as we know it.
