One of the funniest thing I've noticed is that people seem to think that toxic fandoms only can form around lighter, softer media like The Digital Amazing Circus, Undertale (yes, there's some darker elements, but you need to go out of your way to find them), Steven Universe and My Hero Academia. And while yeah, they definitively have/had toxic fanbases, there's more types of toxic fanbases ya'll don't really pay attention to. Here's my types - The overly sensitive toxic fans that are in a perpetual state of meltdown, and also has an obsession for sending death threats because someone did something they didn't like. Examples: See above - The overly memey sensitive fans that highjacked the "curtains are just blue" phrase to justify why they should treat the series they're a fan of as peak slapstick comedy, and also seem to lack basic media comprehension (probably because they're on TickTock or YouTube shorts while a non-memeable scene is happening). Examples: Yakuza/Like A Dragon, JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, JJK - The other overly sensitive toxic fans. Main difference between them and the first one is that they like to think they're more mature and mentally healthy because they're fans of darker stuff. Examples: Breaking Bad, Warhammer 40K, Beserk
