Secrets, rants, opinions, anything you want to say about your fandom or a fandom or fandom in general, do it here! Anonymously, of course. Get it all off your chest.
Some ground rules:
1. Going anon is encouraged but not absolutely required (for those who struggle with recaptchas and stuff).
2. No autoplaying/autolooping embeds, or embeds that cover/stretch the screen.
3. No dropping personal info or IRL contact info, etc.
That's about it, though!
(Today's post is below.)

Actually, when I think of it, most fandoms in general make me hate fandom in general.
/shrug?

(Anonymous) 2013-05-25 11:23 pm (UTC)(link)It's in an animation style that I'm not entirely fond of, but I gave it a try anyway, and thought the music was fun and the plots were okay kids fare if a bit less action/adventure oriented than I'd expected based on the first few episodes and the show's original incarnation.
And then I encountered the parts of the teen/adult fanbase who weren't part of the original fandom, and it was like the worst parts of Homestuck, Hetalia, Harry Potter, and first-person-shooter fandoms combined into one rabid package.

(Anonymous) 2013-05-25 11:44 pm (UTC)(link)The fandom makes it sound like an harem anime rather than a televised Evil Dead/Blues Brothers hybrid.
As awesome as that metaphor was, I still have no intention of watching it.

(Anonymous) 2013-05-26 04:07 pm (UTC)(link)Those fans are the worst. Anything that isn't Caskett is ignored and they're super rude on Twitter when they tweet at the actors, writers, and crew. And their insistence that Caskett MUST have a baby in order to truly be happy when Castle already has a daughter is just problematic.

(Anonymous) 2013-05-27 01:04 am (UTC)(link)I was a biggish fan of the original anime, though it wasn't my favorite anime or anything, and I tried to get into the manga, but the snobbery and self-righteousness from the manga-only fans put me off so much that I can't read the manga without being reminded of them.
Now I have no idea if it's good or not. For all I know, it may in fact be superior to the original anime. But now I'll never know for sure because I just can't get through a chapter without getting pissed off.
