| was scrolling through Twitter for various reasons and I see that someone brings up that anime fans and k-pop fans are more or less the same kinds of people. whilst I'm not a guy of generalisation, I would imagine that general anime and k-pop fans are the same kinds of people. just viewing what they love. not talking about the hyper bts fangirls or hyper shounen fans. just the box standard fan. |
| Yes and we are the superior beings My life revolves around Naruto and Red Velvet |
| If you're a fanboy, please don't waste my time. Watch more movies, please. Perhaps, this is hell. |
| I bet 90% of k-pop fans are fujoshi lol. Who else would drool over asian baby-face femboys singing nonsense and doing silly dances. |
 |
| No x 100 All anime fans aren't toxic but k pop fans are toxic |

| Nah. K-pop fans aren't that different from the pop/rock/gothic/punk fans during 2000-2006 who worshipped bands like Tokio Hotel. At most, these fans could be associated with fujoshis, but that's just a small part of the anime community. |
| I don't see why they should be alike. If philippino rock or chinese ragtime were the latest fad should I like them just because those as well were coming from the east? |
 |
| I hate them both with passion......... |
| I somehow feel that they Are since i easily connected with my friend Who is a kpop fan, i guess its more like how it feels to be a fan of something that not Many people Can relate to in Real life. |

TOBBG said: I would agree but that is an extreme example. things like loving waifus is no different from loving "asian baby-face femboys" lol. I don't see how that would make kpop fans worse, at least they have a 3d person. Nemo_Niemand said: I bet 90% of k-pop fans are fujoshi lol. Who else would drool over asian baby-face femboys singing nonsense and doing silly dances. Unbelievable that you don't realise that's how anime fans look to other people. Anime fans often bash Kpop fans and say they're obsessive whilst simultaneously making reddit posts about how they love their waifu and generally being cringey. ---- Literally whipped out a translator for this and I can actually relate. |
| As far as I know no anime fans have rented a truck to parade around messages around town asking for someone to retire so... Anime fans are pretty cancer but I'd say kpop fans are a step ahead in that regard. |
 |
| Idk, does k-poopers masturbates watching japanese cartoons getting pounded by 3 slugs? |
 |
| You could claim a connection amongst a number of fans. I love anime but I'm not really a fan of pop. |
 |
| as someone who has been watching anime for years now and has only recently began to listen to k-pop, yes, anime 'fans' and k-pop stans are different sides of exactly the same spectrum. anime fans will listen to anime openings on repeat 24/7 and then shit on k-pop as if it isn't just pop from another country. k-pop stans will doxx you and flood your inbox with fancams if you disagree with them (don't believe me? spend a day on stan twitter). they're both equally cringe. |
| No anime is non-canon. Non-canon is canon, but on a different world line. |
| Both are cringe. Atleast they like 3D. |
| Most fandoms are similar in behavior so I would say yes. Being a kpop fan is more stigmitized than being a weeb. |
 |
| yes, both of them definitely can't date their waifu or husbando |
| no i dont see a reason why anime and music have anything to do with them except if you're talking anime ops and eds kpop has nothing to do with anime, this way i can also say; are anime fans and metal-fans alike? not because a lot of anime fans listen to kpop, means we're alike i hate kpop, but love metal, someone else hates metal and loves classical music.... everyone has their own taste and apart from the language not being english but being asian, kpop and anime aren't alike i dont want to shit on ppls tastes bcs i know how it feels (i listen to the most extreme metal imaginable and always get told it sucks) to get shit on bcs of ur music |
 |
| Kpop fans do not masturbate to drawings but to real people tho. |

| This is like saying hotdog fans and gastronomes are one and the same since they both like food... K-pop is like that one thing and anime is tons and tons of different things with huge legacy and which evolves with time. |

| If you read Eleceed you're automatically my friend. |
| I feel as though the Anime community is rather tolerable towards non-Anime watchers in this day and age, although, merely going back a few short years, the Anime community was a lot worse than it is now. It's surprising how much the fanbase has changed over the past 5 years. Of course, we still have those... "Neon Genesis" type of Anime fans that will try smite you for disliking something they like, but, they're pretty few and far between I'd say. I personally know absolutely nothing about K-Pop; in particular, how it sounds, however, I have noticed that K-Pop fans are pretty violent towards people who share a distaste for the genre. I feel as though Anime fans are pretty varied in ages, gender, sexuality and race, whereas K-Pop fans usually seem to be females or people apart of the LGBT community under the age of 25. |
| No. In terms of Twitter, I have never seen anime fans using trending topic just to spam a video of his/her own favorite anime or a video of his/her waifu/husbando. How about kpop fans? Yes, they are. I'm getting pissed by seeing them spamming the trending topic with their beloved members video. Such an attention seeker. |
| At least anime fans don't by-and-large post irrelevant fancams on fucking everything. |

DoubleJEspejwan6 said: At least anime fans don't by-and-large post irrelevant fancams on fucking everything. +1 I wanted to write the same thing. K-pop fans are mainly obsessed with one group or sometimes only one member while most anime fans watch and enjoy a variety of shows. |

|
| Haha no. I am a Kpop fan and I dont think I would go cray cray for my kpop boys but certainly if Luffy was real, I would marry him. |

DepressedSalt said: as someone who has been watching anime for years now and has only recently began to listen to k-pop, yes, anime 'fans' and k-pop stans are different sides of exactly the same spectrum. I agree with this. In general though, the scandals are due to the k-pop community being more influential than anime community, for better and for worse. k-pop fans have raised millions of dollars overall for natural disaster relief funds, and are much more fan-driven than entertainment-specific driven. so it can be an easier opportunity to make friends with this hobby. Bad thing about it, the influence can be used to cancel/spam people and things unrelated to the topic being discussed at hand, which is annoying for those who are not in the fandom. And since they look at you as a friend moreso than an acquaintance sharing the same hobby, private details are more in danger, especially for the fact that many are minors and don't now any better. I've seen people share their family life and hardships publicly online, unaware of the dangers of oversharing. Anime tends to be more inside the community driven. Many people will not be aware of specific ins and outs without diving into the community rather than the typical general/unrelated topics circles. Many fans are for the entertainment first and foremost, and tend to keep more to themselves while sharing their hobby rather than use it as an opportunity for friendship. Bad thing is, is despite the large amounts of fans, we don't do anything influential for the better. When is the last time fans came together to raise money for things outside of the anime/manga/entertainment related sphere? You might be a charitable person, but not an anime fan charitable person. |

| K-pop fans are similar with lowly tier anime fans aka weaboo who fanaticism their waifu or favorite battle shounen. They are different with elitist like me who respect the true art in story and creativity of an anime. I said that because it is obvious that K-pop are trashy music. K-pop fans don't understand music, they are only obsessed with the supposedly pretty face of their idol. |

| No, we don't revolve around celebrities. |
| not really K-pop fans are extreme, if you hurt them by a little you going to get 60 replies easily. In anime, for most cases, no, from what I see |
 |
| both fanbases are similar when they're overly-passionate on what they like. |

| You saying Japan and Korea are the same thing? That's racist. |

| Well I hate lots of otakus, especially in cinema (the reason I never watch anime in cinema again) But K-pop? no way... Tbh I sometimes talk to AKB48 fanboys and they're exactly the same Just stick to anime / game community. I visit Soompi too daily (like K-Pop daily news) and omg I can't never stand the comment section, they're almost... inhumane, if that makes any sense. Either when they mock or praise someone, it's almost like we're living in utopia or something. |
| Yeah, the My Hero, Haikyuu... Webtoon anime fans.. all the anime those Twitter users watch are exactly the same as Kpop fans. |
| both aren't the same. most of the anime fans think that kpop or something that related to korean is trash, they condescend and ridicule someone who likes korean, while kpop fans, never look down on anime fans. people have their own opinion so you go with yours and i'll go with mine :) |
| Can't wait for the topic about how anime fans are just like gamers because someone said it once on reddit. |
 Life is a despicable endurance race |
| K-pop fans are the final form of weebs, key and point all these trending topics spammers are just jojo fans on steroids. |

| I think kpop fans have better chance to get laid compared to anime fans who tryna f*** pixels and drawings I don't really understand the whole waifu culture. It's fun to joke about it but there are srsly people trying to marry fictional characters and hate any 2D guy being paired with their 2D waifu lol this is where I'd rather not be associated with those anime "fans" |
