I feel like I am TV fandom in general. "Lost" was the big one, but also "Fringe," "Arrested Development," "Breaking Bad," and a bunch of others.

Also, Game of Thrones.

I currently imagine mail-mi wearing a dark trenchcoat and a bowler hat, hunched over a bit, toothpick in his mouth, holding a gun in his pocket.  One bead of sweat trickling down his nose.

Animorphs (when it was still around, anyway)

I remember those! The 16 first books were available in Swedish, so those are the ones I've read. On multiple occasions I've had the urge to get my hands on the rest of the books to read them. But I've never gotten around to it.

Puella Magi Madoka Magica is by far the most important, others in no particular order:

LOTR
OreImo
K-On!
Girls und Panzer
Strike Witches
Emperor
Maximum The Hormone
Paiste Cymbals
various voice actors, there's a huge list of them

I only like the OT (not even the games and stuff) so I don't really count it as a fandom.  I do love the OT, though.

Not yet! (I've actually been sort of avoiding it in case of spoilers). I don't have the game yet (but I do have the money!), so I'll probably be behind you, Tables, and whoever else is in there. I'll propably o pop in there and post my Friend Code anyways.

Gundam.

And I guess, mecha animes in general. Right now though, I'm playing Xenogears, a ps1 classic, through the PSN network. It's as close to Gundam:The game as I ever want to get.

EDIT: Also, classic first-person shooter games like Doom, including many which use more or less the same game engine (Heretic, Strife, etc.). I even learned a bit about modding for ZDoom until I decided to pursue software studies and ironically lost all time to work on that kind of stuff. I still want to get to the end of Blood.

Closest to being fan:

Star Trek - Next generation
Pinky & the Brain
Blaz Blue
Dr. Who
Games in general

I also used to like My little Pony - Friendship is Magic - and while the show mostly lost me during season 3, i can state that the first two are much better and more clever entertainment than some of you probably think.

I'm not too familiar with the term fandom, but I gather it means some kind of interaction with other fans (even if it's just reading what they've written) as fans (vs friends you had for other reasons), as opposed to just enjoying the interest itself?

In that case:

Dominion
Set
Starcraft: Brood War
Programming contests (sort of)

My fandoms:

The Adventures of Brisco County Jr.
G vs E (no, really)
Bablyon 5
Firefly/Serenity
Harry Dresden
Back to the Future
The Prisoner
Portal

I don't go gung-ho for things very much. So, these are fandomverses that I have more than a passing interest in. If I had read more than two of the series, I suspect that I could put Discworld in there, but I really do need to read more books first. Also, Wild Cards.
