    What are some of the fandoms your friends are in, but you aren't?

    I play a lot of male ensemble games and in that community, a lot of people play Twisted Wonderland, Promise of Wizard and Touken Ranbu. I personally do not touch those games, and have no intention to.

    I'm also (one foot in) the Love Live! community, and a lot of people in that fandom play Idolmaster, I don't.

    Also a lot of my friends play and enjoy the Fire Emblem franchise. I don't touch it. Also see a lot of people in the fate/grand order/granblu fantasy community.

    I have a few friends in the German side of things who really like the show Lucifer, but I've never touched it. I also have a lot of people that are in the male ensemble games community that are heavily in the Detective Conan fandom. I'm also not in that one.

    Also, Identity Five is a big one that a majority of the fandoms I'm in also is into. I don't play that one.

    Let's see, what else: kpop? Feel like 90% of the people I talk to are into Kpop, but I stay away from that fanbase out of complete fear.
     
    Every time I open Twitter, I'm assaulted with FFXIV screenshots from my friends. I'm never touching it, I barely have time as it is to get sucked into a sink.
     
    Due to having a fondness for small fandoms, that happened to me a lot when I still frequented social media. Right now, a lot of my friends in my current circle are into LotR but I just... can't get into it. Some of them also play gacha games of all kinds, which don't really appeal to me either.

    For privacy reasons, and to avoid reviving some unpleasant memories, I won't go into further detail. There is one funny anecdote I want to share though. One of my (now former) friends would bombard all my feeds with a certain CW show based on a DC comic and would harangue others to get into it. Me? I didn't even touch a single clip from that show until I found out one of my favourite actors was in it, long after I cut ties with this person. Oops?
     
    A lot of my friends are very into k-dramas but I haven't watched any properly yet to say whether I'd like them. I enjoy K-Pop but not as much as a lot of my friends who are super into specific groups.

    A lot of my friends also love Marvel and I've watched a few movies but nowhere near the extent any of them love Marvel. I'm hoping to watch more of the movies though, at some point. :P
     
    Genshin Impact is the biggest one. I dislike it, as a matter of fact. I won't bring people down about it though.
     
    My friends like Harry Potter but I never read any of the books. Honestly I'm not all that interested- I'm not a big reader. Whenever they start talking about it, I always get confused. They also like to guess which house I'd be in, but I don't really know (nor do I care) what that means.
     
    K-pop, Marvel/DC franchises, Harry Potter, and most of the big popular shonen anime.

    I'm actually.... not involved with that many popular fandoms as a whole.
     
    i'm straight up not in any fandoms because i'm a super asocial hermit, i intentionally live under a rock, and i only play the same like 4 video games and then occasionally fixate on a new thing for a week or two. every piece of media i get sucked into i'll just engage with and draw for myself because it's all stuff that straight up has no fandom anyway, and even if it did i usually only get into one character anyway as opposed to the media as a whole. but i digress.
    let's see... my friends are into FNAF, genshin impact... TF2... and i know a lot of people into rhythm games. i don't entirely 'get' fandoms still but i appreciate that people have things that make them happy.
