There is a rare breed of fanbase in the world that is so toxic, that fans of Harry Potter, Nintendo, and My Little Pony can only stare on in wonder. Don't get me wrong, if you like those things, you should still feel embarrassed. But certain fanbases take the awfulness to newfound levels. They are the masterclass in being awful, toxic people. Behold in wonder.
5. Call of Duty/Battlefield- Anyone whose been called a ****** during a match of COD knows how toxic the community is. It's not uncommon to hear racial, homophobic, and sexist slurs screamed out during a match. All hours of the night. All hours of the day. You hear when you're doing well. You hear it when you're doing bad. On and on, until it fold in on itself and becomes a kind of slur ridden drone. Like the opposite of what the Buddha heard underneath the Bodhi tree, you will hear all the awfulness in the universe in a single sound. And you will weep for mankind.
4. Homestuck- Homestuck fans are notoriously unlikable. Anyone who has been to a con with a large number of teenager homestuck fans have seen the chaos they unleash. Body paint staining hotel pillows, people in black paint screeching and screaming through the halls, destroying property, harassing innocent people. And then there's the terror that is unleashed online, where they flood communities with their awful art. When the homestuck webcomic met it's regular release schedule, the internet knew a time of peace, but when it went on hiatus, and the fandom was let loose upon the web, we would go down in fire and mate with jackals. Sorry was the state of man.
3. Weebs- Did you know? That the original manga and anime were meant to be perfect? A medium where it's fans could be happy. The works of Tezuka, Miyazaki, Kon, and even Anno were works of art that tried to say something powerful. It was a disaster. Weebs couldn't accept the themes, other artists failed to follow in their footsteps. Some believe that that weebs lacked the mental capacity to understand the concept of "art." I believe that, as a species, Weebs define their reality through misery and suffering, and through participation in base consumerism. Which is why anime was redesigned to this: a medium made up almost entirely of cheap shonen, echhi, harem, hentai, loli, and fanservie ridden slice of life. Do you know what I realized? Weebs are not actually humans, or even mammals. Every mammal has a purpose, a place, but the weebs do not. They move into an area, and multiple, contributing nothing, until every natural resource is consumed. Unable to breed, the only way the weebs can survive is to spread to another area. Weebs are a virus. I'm going to be honest with you, sitting here in an anime club, dragged here once again by my roommate. I. Hate. This Place. This zoo, this prison. I can't stand it any longer. Do you know what it is? It's the smell. The room reeks of pocky, and semen, and bad decisions. I feel saturated by it. I can taste their stink. And every time I do, I fear that I have somehow been infected by it. It's repulsive. The cat girl tails, and the loli's, and the shota, and the whine whine whine of their awful voices. I must get out of here, I must escape. I must drive down the road for miles, until I can't see of hear the distant echoes of their stupid laughing, and I can rip my clothes off, and burn them, and bathe in the river, and be clean.
2. Undertale: Dear God in heaven, the undertale fanbase. I really thought they would be number one. Such a terrible fandom, upon release, I had never seen. They would harass people to play the game, and then actively ruin it for them. Any time a lets player blindly stepped into the game, there was an avalanche of of fans ruining the game, demanding that the game be played the "correct" way. Blabbering on endlessly about how they cried. It's no surprised that the fandom is largely a carryover from Homestuck, which Toby Fox had helped work on. Sadly, instead of growing up, the children who loved Homestuck only grew worse with time. But the fandom of Undertale was not just made up of Homestuck fans. It brought in the absolute worst elements of the furry and anime community as well. Even by furry and weeb standards, the Undertale porn is weird and awful. Entire genre's of porn I never though possible. Goat mom porn. Porn where flowey possesses Sans and Papyrus, and forces them to commit atrocities. Porn where the characters melt, and fuse into each other, creating abominations. It's a toxic miasma of awful that even our most powerful cringe suits are unable to protect us against. Some naive individuals thought that the hype for undertale was finally dying down. But with the release of deltarune, it's clear that the fandom is here to stay. For years. For decades. Posting awful art in forums and discord servers, completely unable to read the room and see how miserable it makes everyone.
1. Steven Universe- What kind of fandom identifies with a series where a boy is raised by his dead mothers harem of lesbian lovers? Or where underage characters "fuse" together, in what appears to be an obvious metaphor for sex? One that gets a teenage girl to attempt suicide for posting fan art, and then brags about it. Steven Universe is a lovecraftian hellscape of awfulness. Anyone with taste should really go read Land of the Lustrous instead, which Steven universe obviously tries to ripoff.
