Jacksepticeye: "Actually, the one thing I would delete off the internet is anti-fans. Back in the day, it was like, if you liked something, that's fine. Other people don't like it, they move on; they like their thing. And you can shit on each other, back and forth or whatever. It would be competitive. Like, console wars were such a big thing when I was growing up. But, I think there's such a big movement now, that some people don't even partake in the thing they don't like. They just don't like it. And they want to destroy it, and burn it to the ground, and all the fans should just disappear for it. And I think that wave of things that are happening now, is really just detrimental to any sort of artistic forum. That they need to fuck off."

Penguinz0: "It's so embarrassing! Like, there's a group of people in every fandom that for some reason take it so seriously, that they put the achievements and the accolades of the property that they're a fan of on their own soul. So in this case, there are people whose entire identity and personality revolves around being a defender of Breaking Bad and ensuring that this 10 out of 10 remains unsullied by anything else coming close. And they'll fight tooth and nail for it. It's just so embarrassing. Because like, they feel personally attacked because another show has an extremely good episode. Like in this case, A Knight Of The 7 Kingdoms, with 'In the Name of the Mother'." Source: https://x.com/josiah_awkward/status/2025812024593179076
Before JayVik/Arcane fandom, I used to be in the Persona 5 fandom, which was the biggest, most active fandom I had been in, up to that point. But I still remember the dwindling fanart and fan posts. But JayVik is not that at all. EVERY SINGLE DAY, I see more and more JayVik fanart, analysis posts, fangirl squeeing, RP/ask blogs, fanfic, etc. It's just as active as any fandom is in its first year. And it's been almost 2 years since Arcane season 2 ended. JayVik fandom is not small or inactive AT ALL.
That being said... Are people saying the Arcane fandom is dying???????
"Conversation no one seems to be having"???? SuperButterBuns talked about this at length a few days ago. She spoke in her stream about how the "ball and gun" gamers aren't actually the majority of sales throughout the year. They don't even set the trends for the majority of the gaming industry.
