How do you subtly (or not-so-subtly!) work your fandom into everyday life?
Themed outfits! It’s also a great conversation starter with my customers, and I get to recommend awesome things for them to read or watch!
What does it mean to be a fangirl?
Passion and enthusiasm! You can’t really be a fan without being super into something. I love the community’s over brimming passion!
So many fandoms. What’s yours?
Anime! I watch approximately 40 episodes a week most of the time. One of my current favorites is “Kiss Him Not Me!” It’s a lot more meaningful than you would be led to think, but it still has tons to laugh at.
