There are elitists, ignoramuses, and people who are just plain drama seekers. Hopefully you'll still be able to enjoy the anime/manga.</p> I’ve never lasted long in any fandom community, there’s always at least one person who takes things to extreme levels.

Some fandoms have adult only communities, but they tend to be not as active. *headdesk*

Seriously -____-; I just ignore them *passes over that entry* I was really thinking hard before joining all these LJ comms of all the series I love. And yeahh .. That's why I hate the fandoms /: Like my ultimate favorite series in the world .. has a non-existent fandom (It's an OLLLLDDDDD show, so the fans pretty much don't exist anymore) :) Maybe that's why it's still my favorite? Because there are no fans to ruin it? xDD</p> ROFL.

Some people just can't appreciate each version for their strengths, and, instead, insist of comparing them.</p> <p>For example, with Sailormoon, they complain that the anime cranked up the cute and took it to annoying levels with the SupersS season. Sure, it DID soften up the manga's storyline... but it also explored the villains' motives better. Neither version is better than the other, they're different interpretations on the story. Unless the anime's directed by the manga-ka, it's bound the be that way.</p> <p>This reminds me why I don't spend much time discussing anime in comms. here. :/</p> The whole manga-vs.-anime debate happens with EVERY series, sadly.

Ignorance is perhaps bliss for the ignorant party, but it sure is annoying for everyone else! Blaah... :)</p> Ah- that’s too bad, but I can understand why you left though.
