Fandoms Promotion Post
Jan. 19th, 2012 10:49 pmNominations are just around the corner (in April, but it takes time to review canons) and if you'd like to promote your fandoms in order to entice fellow participants to offer/request, this is the place to do it.
Please keep discussions of each fandom in separate comments with the subject of it as that fandom. Please also put in the subject warning for common triggers (in the canon and especially anything that is in your comment).
Our guidelines for a medium sized fandom is a) a fandom that isn't listed on the recent Yuletide nomination list (or Signup Summary) and b) isn't a fandom with over 20,000 fics available (megafandom list on LJ and on DW). RPF is allowed within Not Prime Time and is the only exception to the requirement of "a fandom that isn’t listed on the current Yuletide nominations list" though we ask that participants keep to the spirit of the exchange and do not nominate/request very rare RPF. It is still held to the megafandoms requirement, however.

Detective conan
Date: 2012-01-21 10:25 pm (UTC)This is a series with a lot of fun characters. Although the canon is huge, most of the chapters and episodes are in small episodic arcs - the actual plot, tends to feel more like filler, it's the mysteries that lure you in, so it's easy to get into and pick up from any point. I feel that the art improved a lot towards the later seasons too.
for those who want to pick up, the main overarching plot episodes are listed here: http://members.shaw.ca/makimura/DCN/EPS/DCNCRITEP.html
I love Ran! Beautiful heart wrenchinly in love karate chopping Ran. Conan, with his arrogance and comeuppance as he learns to live as a child, Ai with her snarky genius, Kid - kid is a reoccurring guest antagonist who is the protagonist of his own series. He's hilarious and so much fun to look at. I also like Hattori, the Kansai rival for Conan who comes by and is alternatively insightful and clueless.
