B: The truth is, lately I’ve been addicted to online games. On my days off I play for maybe ten hours.
A: What?! You must be addicted like crazy.
Another word that is used in the same way as “hamaru” is the Japanese-made English phrase, “my boom.”
Instead of meaning something that is “booming” with the general public, it means a “boom” for an individual person.
Example:
最近のマイブームは、オンラインゲームです。
Saikin no my boom wa online game desu.
Lately I’m really into online games. (Online games are my boom lately.)
