11. I think there's a difference between "not a large fandom" and "no fandom at all". I find it annoying, too, when people whine that there are "only" 250 fanfics in their fandom, while there are manga where you really have to search hard in order to even find another person (singular) who likes the series and is interested in talking about it with you, discuss new chapters, come up with theories, meta, jokes...

This can be very frustrating, and it's perfectly fine to be sad about this state.
And it's also perfectly fine to keep/make it a secret that something is making you sad - when you know that there are enough people like you, who would give you shit about it.

I don't understand why people think things NEEEEEEEEEEEEED a fandom. They don't. You can enjoy something without a fandom. With all the people whining about how fandom ruined this and fandom ruined that, you'd think people would get a clue, but noooooo.

I define "small small fandom" as: there are fans other than you, and you can talk with them about the show.

Sometimes, you want to squee about something that happened in the story, or you want a second opinion on something because you are not sure you understood it correctly, or you want someone to mourn a deceased character with. And if there really is no one who ven knows what you're talking about, it's kind of sad.

Maybe you feel differently, but so what? You don't get to tell me how I should enjoy something. I can enjoy a story all by my lonesome self, but I usually enjoy it more if I have people to share it with.

The mere existence of a fandom also ensures that information about the story becomes available at all. You don't have to be active in the fandom to profit from its existence. People will post links to interviews, scan magazine articles, report news. If it's manga fandom, you can enjoy the luxury of scanlations.
