[@Shoryu Magami] Well, I think you can tell that my opinion towards fandoms is actually neither here nor there - more towards a specific group of people than the fandom as a whole, because like you've said within a community you're bound to meet some who are decent, and some are just... annoyingly mindless followers with no life or dreams of their own.

I need to clarify that while I have numerous franchises and titles that I like, I'm definitely nowhere near the obsessive fan level, and I don't defend them without good reasoning or evidence to back up. I have respect for these works simply because they gave me inspirations in my own projects, but it doesn't mean I worship them blindly and don't analyze their worth in an objective manner.

I don't want to hate fandoms - because that would make me hate everybody in this world. But some fandoms just love to put themselves on my hate list. Oh well.
