I don’t have the fancy layout
R + S QOTD #9 methinks
What makes you feel like you’re an actual fan of something? Do you like learning all of the information you can manage— or maybe you like actively participating in the fandom or community?
Both of those combined. Mostly the information thing.
Having a bunch of info/facts in my brain about a certain thing sort of just makes me feel more connected to it which in turn makes me feel like a real fan of said thing! I also just enjoy finding out things in general, but it's more fun when it's about something I actively like to partake in!
About participating in community things, I enjoy that too! Selectively. It doesn't make me feel more like a fan, it's just something I may do after already considering myself a fan just for extra fun. I think things like Snow Miku are good examples of that! Although at other times I don't like to do said activities. It really depends
