Something wicked this way comes...

I want to perform a little experiment.

We find badfic in fandom after fandom after fandom. I'm curious to see just how badly things can be corrupted, how badly characterized people can be.

So I want the lot of you to nominate an anime fandom (preferably something downloadable), whether it's because it's a good one or a bad one. I'll then dive into The Pit of Voles (as Shiori puts it) and any other sites that might be of "use" and take rough notes about the characters and what I learn of them.

Once I have a suffiencent feel for the cast (or if I just can't take it anymore), I'll watch the anime and I'll post the good, the bad and the just plain stupid.

So please nominate away, my friends. Let's see just how offbase the fans can lead me.

Hmm...I first thought of Gundam Wing, but I think it's a bit on the long side, and also if you go to the right places you would actually get fairly good views.

So, I'm going to go with Wolf's Rain. Because it's just SUCH a bad fandom and I don't think you've been spoiled much be me about it.

I haven't been spoiled at all by you. I know wolf turn into people, or vice versa. Something like that.

Wolf's Rain goes on the list!

I`d say Full Metal Alchemist, because the fandom is one of the most fanon filled I`ve ever seen, except that it IS 51 episodes ... still, it`s easily the best anime around right now.

Great idea =D

I have the first seven or so episodes of FMA five feet from my head. I'm not sure I can take the temptation/punishment. I am weak.

(We really, really do :( I was looking over our old logs and I got all nostalgic and sad.)

[rosa-aquafire.livejournal.com]

I could probably get on tomorrow =D I`m about to head off to bed!

FMA is amazing. You need to watch it~~ It will devour you~~

[akeyoftime.livejournal.com]

I need bed too. Like, half an hour ago.

I can be on tommorow night. And I do mean night. By some freak chance I'm actually getting to see Michael tommorow when I ought not to be able to do such a thing. I like coincidences very much!

Pretear. Because it's like the WORST fandom EVER.

(And only 13 episodes :p)

Except, as I told you at dinner, Trebs has seen it and loves it.

And knows the horror of the fandom.

[yubsie]

Yes, but the comment was made BEFORE dinner. :p

[akeyoftime.livejournal.com]

I've seen Pret though, so it does not work. :(

Aww, nuts. It would be funny, going in thinking Goh hates the kids and is a pedophile. :p
