Morphology
fujo + out
The verb is formed by a cultural/slang label 'fujo' (fujoshi fan) plus the colloquial productive pattern 'X out' meaning to behave enthusiastically (as in 'geek out' or 'freak out'), so a learner who knows both constituents could plausibly infer the meaning. However, 'fujo' is niche slang and 'out' has multiple senses; the cultural specificity and slang status make the derivation not fully reliable for an average B1 learner.
Etymology
The verb fujo out comes from fans called fujo, short for 'fujoshi', who get very excited about male-male couples in anime and manga. To fujo out is to show that excitement by talking, cheering and sharing about a favourite couple, so it now means 'to join in excitedly in fan talks and activities'.
