I don't get the hate either--even with all the reasoning and stuff, it just doesn't add up for me. It's just... so much hate for a person that you only know through blogs, or a couple productions. It seems like such a waste of energy. It gives me the same uneasy feelings as the Hinoai hatefests--why bother? I rag on actors, yeah, like I think Katou is a crap actor and not really all that great, and Eiki's version of Taka makes me want to shoot something.... but they're not things I'd bother obsessing over.
If I'm going to devote that much passion to something, I'd rather have it be a good feeling, like adoring on Zukki's spazzy sweetness, or flailing over how much of a geek Souta is. Which I do quite a bit. X3
:/ I enjoy your Rui love, and reading the things you write about Sunadokei and Online, even though I've yet to see either so I don't know enough to fan over them with you. XD
I think the lack of appreciation for uploads is something in every fandom. It just hurts more when you're in a particularly EXPENSIVE fandom, and you actually contribute. The expectation is pretty ridiculous, though. I don't know how some of the people who regularly rip/scan things can stand it (I can see some of the reason why Leah rants and complains so much, kind of) because the rude assumption that you're going to be nice and take a shitload of time/effort and ruin something you paid for so that an ungrateful crowd can take them--and most of the time not even leave a simple 'thanks'? Ergh.
Yeah, sharing is caring, but sometimes you just really don't feel like being nice to the other jerks who you have to share your sandbox with.
Yeah, it's been a while since I've jumped on teh Hinoai hate train. Her prices are still high, but she's changed, brought back her comm, and I'm willing to not even care. It's such a waste of energy.
EVERYONE SHOULD SEE ONLINE FOR THE CANON SLASH. Eito/Macchi forever XD
