fans
My Neighbour Totoro, Kiki’s Delivery Service, Howl’s Moving Castle and Spirited Away are all represented in this show-stopping new collection.
Instinctively chasing down idols may be acceptable in fans’ eyes, but not so in everyone else’s.
Totoro, Jiji, and No Face are here to provide a cool breeze as you set out on warm-weather adventures of your own.
North Korean fans tidy up after themselves and leave the away fans’ section of the Ajinomoto stadium spotless.
Get out the tissues because this hand-drawn thank-you manga from creator to fan will hit you right in the feels.
These Japanese idol fans at the 2016 Tokyo Idol Festival show us that, when it comes to being first to the front of the stage, all etiquette is thrown out the window.
There are some people out there who aren’t afraid to take their fandom to a whole new level. Take Somchai Nitimongkolchai from Thailand, for example, who opened up a museum dedicated to his most favorite superhero of all time – the one and only Batman.
The unique thing about this exhibit, though, is that everything in the museum is part of Somchai’s very own private collection of over 50,000 pieces, including one-of-a-kind figures, posters, a LEGO-replica of Gotham City, and yes, of course, even the Batmobile.
