Noticeable bandwagons...

Post by OmniStrata » Fri Aug 22, 2003 2:00 am

Just doing some tiny research on what bandwagons exist, existed, will exist, etc... [anti-bandwagons can be listed here too]

[if you're a part of them that don't matter, but try to find as many as you can...]

bandwagon definition = A LOT OF PEOPLE hopping on something...
comparison check... dbz haters aren't really a "bandwagon" since there's like soo few of them... But you could classify the few that are a bandwagon...

Some that existed...

*none come to mind...

some that are in the running

DBZ lovers
Evangelion fans
Tenchi fans
Action AMV lovers
Drama amv lovers
hentai people ^_^
Linkin' Bark [doh!]

some that may come sooner or later...

panty fans *I don't think they're big enough, yet... [of course, I 'm wrong ^_^]
the hentai amv [MJ, j00 da man]
and uhm... *doh!
Shueishiga MADs... [heh heh heh]

I don't see bandwagons as something too evil, since without bandwagoning, the org wouldn't exist... [a bunch of people who love amvs... *cough]

I just hope bandwagons can get a long... [I'm wondering if the anti-dbz will get soo great that the number of amvs NOT to it will be affected some how... Then again, who cares? *oh fack, I do! doh!*]

notice any other anime/amv/music bandwagons around here?

i have a feeling flcl is going to blow up decently big
... Another bandwagon im seeing isthe mtv teenie bopper generation going on to a new music trend .. something along the lines of maybe nu-metal .. or punk or even alternative (Blink 182 anyone?)
...the problem I see a lot is that many good amv makers think they suck, and many bad amv makers think they're good.
I've seen it happen, man! I've SEEN IT!..

It's the right thread so long as we stick to anime bandwagons.

And considering the number of people who jump up to flame dbz and dbz vids, I'd say they're more than enough to constitute a bandwagon. Just look at any of the past dbz controversy theads we've had here on the org - the numbers speak for themselves.

As for more bandwagons, I've noticed a huge rise in Love Hina vids, so I'd say that's getting quite a following, and the Bebop/Tribun fans are coming out all over the place.

I predict the YYH fans will be rising up very soon - I'll soon be pushed with competition once they all discover the org. >.<

Jesus I hope not. The last thing I need is people thinking that I've only seen Cartoon Network anime when I say that FLCL is my favorite show. I'd hate to have to pick a new favorite on account of FLCL having a CN stigma attached to it.

Personally, I think Cowboy Bebop hit bandwagon status a while ago...

Case in point to argue with that statement:

Every single time someone comes in and says he likes the anime, this happens. Add up the numbers, it equals:

Thanks for the insight, I'm going to hit up every bandwagon in sight, so I can be popular, and loved.

Heh, another month here and I might hop a few bandwagons myself. ^_^;; It looks like fun.

But really, they're just trends, right? The moment I join up, it's going to change and I'll be stuck waiting till the general concensus can sway me again - then it'll change once more. ~_~ I'm too slow to keep up these days.
