You don't even know the X fandom, newbies. We're dangerous

[tempestuously]

I feel better than yesterday so I might actually try to catch up on stuffs. But the poll asking if the X fandom is dead makes me want to kick people in the face. We're just not popular like Tsubasa because we're on hiatus, you morons. Seriously, X hate really infuriates me. X was Clamp's epic series for a reason. Yeah they screwed us. But in my mind, X will be superior to everything but Tokyo Babylon. Such is why I only read Tsubasa for X. I feel no shame in this. I even gave them money when I bought the Japanese Acid Tokyo volumes and the English translation. The Dragons are all I need. Ok Mokona can stick around too because he loves Kamui. As usual, don't diss X around me; I will cut you.

ETA: TRC!Fuuma, you're such an adorable flirt.

Checklist:

1. new Avatar
2. Gundam 00 ep 3 thru 5
3. rewatch Geass 25
4. will watch Baccano during vacation, possibly Gundam Destiny as well
5. sometime catch up on Heroes

Yeah, I saw that. I rolled my eyes at it, too. Honestly, X fandom isn't dead. There are so many people into it and reading it right now and who are continually popping up with things about it. No, it's not super active right now. It probably won't be until it's being produced again. Because uh, that's the bonus of having an active fandom. Unless you're something like Gundam Wing or FMA, a series that ends its run usually doesn't continue producing mass quantities of fic because -- it ends and people move on.

I started reading TRC after X and so my perspective is different and to me the most enjoyable arc in there was the Tokyo arc because of the characters. I like Tsubasa but I will never find it superior to X or Tokyo Babylon. It doesn't have the same emotional resonance and that's fine.
