I found an interesting entry over at Sankaku Complex about this called "Top 10 Reasons for Becoming an Otaku".
It seems this was only sent to High Schoolers and it seemed to be mostly girls that responded. Not sure how this survey was sent out, but did show some interesting statistics. Sine this was mostly girls, they noted this may be more likely fujoshi (yoai fandom) than actual otaku.
Here were their results:
1. Manga (26%)
2. Anime (17%)
3. Friends (16%)
4. Games (8%)
5. Siblings (8%)
6. Boys Love (3%)
7. Novels (3%)
8. Seiyuu (2%)
9. Movies (2%)
10. Mobile Internet (2%)
I decide to jump on the band wagon myself and post my own Survey. You can check it out on the right side near the top. If I have left anything out, let me know and I will add it.
Update: I will note that for me it was Anime as I got hooked when I saw Robotech.
What first began your road to Otakudom?
