It has been a long time since I watched this, but the memories of the live-action interviews is still pretty vivid. It's done in a way that makes it hard to tell if they were fictionalized, or by how much. People might do something for their hobby that seems a bit extreme, but not to such a degree that it isn't believable.

This anime was (and still is) a love for my generation back in the day Very Happy It captured our gen x/millennial youth in Japan when it comes to the hobby. Will always hold a special place in my heart

I highly recommend you read the (25 pages long!) extras bit. It goes a bit in more in depth about the whole history of it both before, during and after. The American Otaku was actually a business partner(staff?) for the very short lived General Products American division.
