13 - Is that some Thrall I see? ♥

Also, 15? Sometimes... you just gotta dive in. It's really scary at first, but you can do it~

4. THANK YOU DEAR GOD
Being a large-ish participant in the fandom myself even if it's basically all just loldrant-quality shizz, I find it hard to say anything while I'm still around a lot of other major Abyss fans. But seriously, the main Abyss community has degraded to like, basically just an icon community with a few blog crews on the side. The fandom is all in the friendships made outside the community, really.

14. I'm not alone? O: I honestly cried in those two scenes( Tsume's 'I wanted to take you to Paradise' line just made the tears start flowing), but I watched Grave of the Fireflies and didn't cry once, not even when you see him bury his sister. I think the only other time I ever cried in an anime series was when Maes Hughes died, just because of the scene where Ellisia is asking why their burying daddy, 'he has work to do!' So sad T^T

15. [livejournal.com profile] ville_de_lumier I guess it's kinda biased, since I am part of the comm, but to date I can't remember a wank incident, at least not a big one, and a lot of our players, including me, don't speak English as their first language

Here here! I adore Terra--she's my favorite character. And sheesh, poor Star. :( I don't mind Raven and all, but I feel closer to the other two girls. And BB/Terra is one of my OTPs. T-T I never did like BB/Rae or Robin/Rae. XDD! Star/Rae and Star/Terra/Rae FTW!11!11

2. I have to agree with that. >>; I haven’t even finished KH yet…but the fanbase is quite good. >>; Even the ones who spork badfic. :D *knows quite a few of those* Because, to quote one of them, “While the fic may be bad…that doesn’t mean the author/authoress is”

5. Agreed. LOL. Ren Faire IS cosplay…it’s just a less modern scenario.

10. Payless makes good shoes. >>; I get most of my good shoes there, and if not there at DSW. :D

12. agreed~~~~~

15. >>; I could pimp a few that are promising, both serious and crack, though many of them have been the source of zOMG wank. And trust me, there are PLENTY of overseas, English-as-Second-Language RP-ers in elite and semi-elite rps. But, just look around. :D

I watched the whole series in a single sitting, parents came home to me crying on the couch at seven at night, still in last nights pjs, staring at a menu screen.

[identity profile] gysecune.livejournal.com 2007-04-18 01:01 am (UTC)(link)
2. Heeeell yes. :D I'm inclined to agree.

[identity profile] shigishigi.livejournal.com 2007-04-18 01:02 am (UTC)(link)
16. Mainstream audience would backaway from Amano's artstyle faster than you can say Sephiroth. I love Kartia but I'm glad that it's one of those things that I can hog to myself.

17. Who are you? Anyone that ships Anna with ANYONE should be my best friend!

...probably because you're a newb. IT USED TO BE GOLDEN. It was so much fun. Even generic posts were cool. But now that the fandom's a little bigger, a generic post is a generic post.

[identity profile] shigishigi.livejournal.com 2007-04-18 01:06 am (UTC)(link)
Thank god for Nina being nerfed to hell with the disappearance of uf+1 and Anna getting all them awesome frame changes to maker her godly. Anna and her full crouch mixups (WS+2=:heart:) fo lyf!

Word. Wordity word word.

The whole series?! I commend you! Though... actually... I think I might have done that once, too. XD

yeah, truth, the fandom is shitty. I am unamazed. loldrant-quality?

...is that even really a quality?

[identity profile] boooon.livejournal.com 2007-04-18 01:19 am (UTC)(link)
Newsflash:

YOU CAN'T KEEP FANDOMS TO YOURSELF.

[identity profile] koala.livejournal.com 2007-04-18 01:22 am (UTC)(link)
i. i couldn't have put it better myself. i love when people stick to something considered un-cool and don't care. if you're that easily scared away from it, why bother in the first place?

[identity profile] fishy-pooser.livejournal.com 2007-04-18 01:24 am (UTC)(link)
4. Haha yeeeees♥ I think we need more writing. Thought-out writing, with spellcheck and actual thought put into it.

8. I don't hate the new author, and I was a big fan of the first one, too. Do people really hate her? :0

*hoping to join that*

SPOILERS - lurkers turn back now

[personal profile] vangirl 2007-04-18 01:25 am (UTC)(link)
The manipulation was one of the bad things I mentioned; it's pretty hard to forgive someone for taking a child, telling them that he honestly cared about them, only so it'll be easier to kill them seven years down the road. Because...yah. He's a bad, bad man.

...

Van's fucked up. There's no denying that. xD;

...And yet I love him so. ;.;

and thanks for letting me act like a total Vangirl at yah. I'm actually kinda glad you hate him, since I only manage to talk about him like this to other Van-lovers, so a different perspective is a nice change of pace. :3

[identity profile] advocate.livejournal.com 2007-04-18 01:26 am (UTC)(link)
2. Ditto. I think this is the first fandom that I've literally clung to and decided, "Hey, I'm not letting you go anytime soon." So I'm totally with you there. ♥

3. Bravo for giving it a shot! Everyone is entitled to their own opinion of course, but I honestly disliked the manga and adore the anime. No clue why. Maybe because I'm a lazy ass and would rather watch it instead.

4. Agreed.

15. Despite a lot of RPs looking like they're big, scary monsters (or something of equal but more amusing value) and whatnot, I'm pretty sure nobody would judge you just because English isn't your first language. ♥ Mention that in an application and all will be awesome.

18. HAHAHA.

NEWFLASH: You can put it on my friends page, but you can't make me like it.

ALL CAPS IS FUNNY BECAUSE IT MAKES YOU LOOK PRETENTIOUS.

Additionally, I don't want to keep it to myself. I just want less boring, same-old posts. IS THIS A CRIME?

[identity profile] boooon.livejournal.com 2007-04-18 01:35 am (UTC)(link)
The caps - I guess I was just put off the way you spoke to my friend. Sorry about that.

And I understand about what you were saying. Overexposure can be really frustrating - for example, there are pairings I've been a fan of up until they exploded to the point of indecency, repetitiveness, and badfic, and all of that.

There are, though, people who DO wish to keep fandoms to themselves and their tight groups of friends. That's something uncool, at least I think. D: so no~ I don't think your desire is a crime. XD I agreed with your secret anyway.

...is that even really a quality?

probably not Who knows! It's all I can do, nonetheless, sadly♥

(Anonymous) 2007-04-18 01:40 am (UTC)(link)
oh, good, I'm glad. I didn't mean to insult either of you guys with "newb," I only really meant "new to the fandom." I probably should've worded it less offensively. Anyways, yeah, I totally agree with you.

I've never run into a fandom where that happens. Eeew, I can't even imagine...
