Man marries a dating sim. For real.

File this under: "Strange and funny, but kinda creepy".  
Regardless, I laughed for a good five minutes.

Just when you think enough time has passed for gamers to get over the novelty of Love Plus and move on to a more normal experience, some damn fool announces he’s wed Nene, one of the dating sim’s three virtual girlfriends.

The otaku brought his DS and a copy of the game to a church in Guam (I wonder if it’s the same guy we featured two weeks ago?), where he took Nene Anegasaki’s hand in marriage. The newlyweds plan to hold a reception in Japan, and have invited the media to attend and view slides from their wedding and courtship.

Local video streaming site NicoNico Douga plans to broadcast the November 22nd event live, starting around 12:00, so clear your evening schedule for that. There’s no word yet on whether the couple has consummated the marriage, but I suppose we’ll find out when we see the condition of the husband’s Nintendo DS.

Also on Gizmodo and Kotaku.
 
Alright my fellow giant-bombers, what do you think? I'm asking a simple question:
 

What the hell is happening to mankind!?

Uh...

Uhm. What. The. Fuck.

That is sad on so many levels.

This is a joke right...RIGHT?????

Lulz.

...what?

I came in here thinking "This guy has to be Japanese." Surprise surprise.

i lold

Holy mother of goddamn crap.

"There’s no word yet on whether the couple has consummated the marriage, but I suppose we’ll find out when we see the condition of the husband’s Nintendo DS."

Hell if he loves it... who cares? 
 
Good for this guy!

Holy crap on a cracker.

haha

How's sex gonna work? She'd have to be in the DS to have it, and the only slot available is the GBA slot. What does that count as? *head explodes from overthinking*

Christ.

Can't wait to see what the kids look like.

Have fun getting laid.

Holy crap, what if it's a DSi?! WHAT THEN?!! "

This depresses me.

 I don't even want to know what the honeymoon is like. 

saw this on Anime Vice. made me cry 

" @vidiot: This guy just want publicity, don't give it to him people! "

How is that possible.  So in the future we will totally see people marrying holograms like Cortana, and obviously robots.

O_O

Pimp Snide approves of this courtship, because it means more ladies for him:

This reminds me of my favorite moment on the old GFW podcast: 
  

Sure, okay.

Saw this on Animevice earlier. HILARIOUS!

Just when I thought I had heard it all

that shouldnt be allowed. Like, seriously.
 
I think that if the guy seriously loves a video game character then its a sign of mental illness rather than a weird  relationship.

"I want a bill passed banning human to videogame character marriage!
The bible reads: Adam and Eve. Not, Adam and Eve! 
Fox News, where are you?! :P   The material writes itself. :P "

 Yeah, read about this on Anime Vice on Thursday, I laughed.

I haven't seen this video chick.  Is she hot?  What happens if I marry her too?
