''The Otachan Show'' is an animated web series created by Yuesf Iqbal aka [[https://www.youtube.com/user/OtakuVsNotaku Otaku-Vs]]. Beginning as a LimitedAnimation in-character talkshow about anime topics before becoming a fully animated series produced by Studio Yukari about creating an anime, it stars the titular Otachan (voiced by Frankie Lollia), a purple-haired anime girl whose cutesy façade belies her true alcoholic, drug-addicted, sarcastic, selfish, violent personality that frequently puts her staff through comedic abuse. Think ''[[Manga/LuckyStar Lucky Channel]]'' but even more child-unfriendly.
