Farewell, Supa Strikas Fandom.
Yeah. Uh, I really am bad at writing those. I‘ll make it short. I am leaving the Supa Strikas fandom. First and foremost, before you misunderstand, it is not because of the fandom itself. In fact, I really love all of you, I‘ve met a bunch of really cool and creative people and I couldn‘t be more grateful.
In the past few months, I had quite a lot of mental issues and most of them, I fear, I can tie back to how I got into this fandom and the happenings within this fandom, or rather, my warped vision of them. I made a lot of mistakes and I‘ve hurt the people I love most over petty issues. Hell, even the reason I first joined and tried to engage in this fandom so much were just really stupid ones, me just running after people and so on. I don‘t want to go into too much detail.
Fact is, I want to get a new start after all of this, in a way. As much as it hurts for me to say this, I had no real ties to the series and the fandom. I did watch around one and a half seasons of the show, half of the rookie season, read comics and I really liked them. This fandom, as small as it may be, comes up with the juiciest fanart and greatest ideas. But I couldn‘t connect to the fandom as I can with the ones I am in. And oh boy, I am in a LOT of fandoms. I never really understood why, but after some reflecting, I think it‘s mostly because of the reasons as to why I pushed myself to join and to engage. I forced myself and that‘s the reason I never felt the connection. Moreover, I always kept being somewhat reminded of the incidents that occurred over the past months whenever I was engaging in the fandom. So yeah, it could‘ve hit any other fandom, any other type of media, and fate decided it was this one for me.
I‘m really sorry for leaving this way, but I don‘t see any other way out for me to start over. I want to thank every single one of you who has supported me in some way on my short journey here on Tumblr on this blog. I appreciate every little bit. Really. The posts will stay here on this blog, I just won‘t be active on it anymore and I won‘t draw for the fandom anymore. Probably. I‘ll find some other use for the OC‘s I‘ve made, they‘ve grown on me, even though you could say I forced myself to make them. They‘re still mine in the end. Bleh.
Ah yeah. So feel free to unfollow me, if you need to. I might make a new blog where I‘ll either just spam repost stuff I like from other fandoms or post my own OC‘s outside the Supa Strikas universe/my older art. If someone here, only if, wishes to follow the new blog when I make it, you could leave maybe a comment and I‘ll send you a link or just my new username for you to check out. No pressure at all, though. I know that pretty much 99% of you all are only here because of the Supa Strikas fandom and content, which totally makes sense. Can‘t blame you there, now can I?
Man, way to make it short. No one is going to read through all of this.
If you did then uhh, congrats. Thank you for reading through this wall of a text, thank you for sticking with me, thank you for everything. I wish all of you nothing but the best in your lives. Merry Christmas and a happy new year.
