#they spot jiang cheng (who said he was busy today) at the con getting fanart autographed and jiggy politely pretends not to recognize him

[qiu-yan]

weeb lore elaborations:

wei wuxian - you literally can't talk to this guy about anime because he will find a way to bring it around to jojo. not everything is a jojo reference, wei wuxian. also he thinks the CLAMP "kakyoin lays an egg" doujin is peak fiction

lan wangji - other weebs legitimately can't tell if he looks down on them for enjoying more "mainstream" anime, or if he just genuinely likes his "highbrow" anime. either way people think he's pretentious for being a hater about how people use "lainpilled" on tiktok. that's not what serial experiments lain is about you guys havent actually watched the show!!!

jiang cheng - got roasted once in middle school for naruto running in the halls with wei wuxian and his ego never recovered. "anime is CRINGE," he howls while hiding 500 anime plushies in his closet

nie huaisang - along with all the artistic hentai he posts on twitter for free, he also makes mad bank on hentai commissions. he's also a tax evader because you know he's not reporting any of this to the IRS

nie mingjue - a lot of powerscalers will fudge the rules to argue that their personal fave solos your entire universe etc etc., but this guy is completely objective in his assessments. this does not make him less annoying

lan xichen - due to his inability to ban anyone and insistence that all interpersonal disagreements can be resolved, the massive semi-official fan discord he moderates is a complete mess. unfortunately he's also really nice so you can't even be mad at him

su minshan - undecided whether he just hates on popular things because they're popular, or if he legitimately hated a show due to it's lack of artistic merit only for it to get super popular. in the second case he is hatewatching every single episode of that show and reading all the lore just so he can More Effectively Hate

xue yang - you can't trust anything this guy says because he will try to convince you to watch goblin slayer and redo of healer blind, that higurashi is a family-friendly anime, and that nothing bad happens in madoka magica. so far it hasn't worked but he'll get someone (xiao xingchen) eventually

jin ling - will smugly post about how the fandom was so much better when it was just manga readers and how the anime-onlies brought all the bad takes in with them. but he won't try to actively start shit with anime-onlies, and if an anime-only asks him for help, he will help...after posturing about it first

lan jingyi - you can't even be mad at him for posting untagged spoilers because he's not doing it on purpose. he just gets too excited about his blorbos and...forgets

ouyang zizhen - this is the guy writing 10K yaoi about two characters who stood next to each other once and otherwise never interact. this is also the guy who causes the character tag of your favorite blorbo to get completely overrun with ship content

jin guangyao - he works for jinlintai media, inc. under CEO jin guangshan. the tax evasion was jin guangshan's idea, but when authorities started investigating the company, he chucked jiggy under the bus :(
