Fandom Interest Survey

I'm curious to get a better grasp on what fandoms interest you, flist! So, I present a poll. You've probably seen this type of poll before. ;)

A few notes about how to answer:

Let's say there are three levels of "interest" in a story:
1) Interested enough to read or watch it
2) Interested enough to seek discussion, fanfiction, graphics, etc.
3) Interested enough to actively participate in fandom

For the first two questions, please mark all the fandoms that you have level 2 or 3 interest in, but don't mark them if your interest is only at level 1. Does that make sense?

For the last question, please check the 3 or 4 activities that interest you the most. You may choose activities that you only enjoy passively. For example, you may still choose "fanfiction" even if you only read it and don't write any yourself. (I'm looking for what draws you to fandom, which can as easily be the creations of others as the opportunity to create fanworks yourself.)

I waver on anime, but never seem to get into it enough to be active in a fandom so while I enjoy some you listed (and some you didn't), I didn't check any of them. I have a casual interest at best.

As for other non-anime fandoms, some I am involved in (levels 2 and 3 as you described above) include Doctor Who, Torchwood, Merlin, Firefly, Stargate Atlantis, Power Rangers, Earth 2 (though this is a dead fandom now, I still go searching), Chuck, Battlestar Galactica, The Big Bang Theory, ReGenesis, and The X-Files. To name a few. I'm not super active in all of them anymore by any means, but I either have been in the past or would still like to be were the fandom still active.

My main interest is in fanfiction, discussion, and fanvids, though I do enjoy icons and wallpapers. :) I would love to go to a convention were I not broke all the time and super shy.

Great poll...currently I've been away from anime/manga, but I answered to reflect my level of interest when I was involved. My dominant fandom currently is Doctor Who, and as for other non-anime fandoms, I've been involved in X-Files, Les Miserables and other musicals, and also with the more obscure animes, Dai-Guard and Blackjack. Fandom has been a wonderful pastime for me, providing a great creative and social outlet!

I took your phrasing about "seeking" discussion/fanfic/etc. seriously - I don't really look for much of anything online in terms of discussion/fanfic/graphics except as it regards comics (mostly Marvel, mostly nostalgic/complaining about how the good old days were better as I don't keep up with much of the current titles) and anime/manga. I try - with limited success - to find online discussion and such for the Watch series (by Sergei Lukyanenko) but it's not something I've had much success with thus far. Now, if it involves HP/AtLA/VM/BtVS & AtS and I stumble across it - such as on LJ - I'll jump in, but I don't go looking for it.

I imagine that whenever I finish BSG I'll be looking for further discussion, but first I need to finish it.....

My other non-anime fandoms are Supernatural and Heroes.

For anime, I started out in fandom in Digimon and DBZ, but I don't really do anything for those fandoms anymore, so I didn't check. But I still have icons and every once in a while, I seek out fic. But I don't really watch the show anymore or anything.

My other anime? Do you really have to ask?

The little sacrastic green cat on my icon should be a clue.
"COMMUNISM IS BAD FOR YOUR EYES."
