Why do anime fandoms have such shitty fanfic?

I just want to read about my favourite characters being awesome without any excessive OOCness or soap opera-esque melodrama. Is that really too much to ask?

Re: why

[rubbertea]

because their fanbase is generally younger and thus less experimented and fandom-savvy than the other fandoms'? idk, that's all i've got

Re: why

Cause it's a visual medium and more people go for making art.

Also as a whole, it's more guy-dominated, so fanfic isn't as popular.

Re: why

[diet_poison]

idk the one anime fandom I've gone out of my way to look for fic for on repeated occasions (YGO DM) actually has some great fic out there. I do suspect it varies a lot from fandom to fandom.

Re: why

Sizes vary a lot (Think obscure 80s OVAs to long-running or super popular juggernauts like Naruto or Sailor Moon). But most of the fandoms are pretty small, so good fic would be hard to come by for those.)

Re: why

[diet_poison]

Good point about small fandoms. It would be very difficult then. But that would also go for pretty much any small fandom, I think...

Re: why

[blueonblue]

Smaller fandoms, younger fans, and the source material is often over the top and melodramatic.

Which fandoms are you interested in?

Re: why

[(Anonymous)]

My guess is younger audiences.

Re: why

Maybe you just click on crappy stuff and then assume whatever corner of the fandom you're scrabbling around in is the whole fandom?

I've read some wonderfully IC, well-written fanfics in my anime fandoms. Complains like yours are baffling to me.

Re: why

I'm kind of shocked that you think non-anime fandoms aren't full of shitty fanfics. Most fanfic is shitty no matter what type of series it is.

Re: why

[(Anonymous)]

Yes, it really is too much to ask.
