What is your special interest/hyperfixation? How would you describe your special interest/hyperfixation to someone who knows nothing about it? (You can answer multiple if you have more than one, but this may get lengthy for you.)
One Piece!
I'd say it's a funny but deep and heartbreaking anime/manga with really endearing and interesting characters and big themes of solidarity, found family and freedom.
How did you discover your special interest/hyperfixation? How long ago was it?
Around a year ago I'd say, my partner had been bugging me about me starting, and I ended up caving and accepting to start over (I'd watchted it up to Arlong Park when I was like 12). After a around 6 months of me instisting we watch some every weekend and having the Brainworms™️ about it consistently, I suspected the hyperfixation might might become a special interest as my usual hyperfixations don't last this long.
What is something people might not know about your special interest/hyperfixation?
Emporio Ivankov was based on Frankenfurther from The Rocky Horror Picture Show
Have you had other special interests/hyperfixations in the past?
Yup! I have a lot of hyperfixations, and those are cyclical, usually lasting from a week to three months the disappearing to come back a few months later. Dogs were a special interest when I was a kid, and that's not quite accurate now. My other special interest is art in general (from narration at large, passing by painting, sewing, acting,…)
How much time do you spend on your special interest/hyperfixation? Is it something you do, something you learn about, something you think about, some combination of those, or something else entirely?
I watch it, and I think and daydream about it. I spend around 2h per weekend watching it, and I have Brainworms™️ once every few days
