Sum up your former/current fandoms in a few sentences, as if they were human beings/very convincing sockpuppets on your flist. Ask your friends to guess which fandoms you're talking about!
May I introduce the following animes, books, and mangas:
1. There were countless references, endless rides, comical elements and serious issues. Sometimes brilliant, sometimes on the edge of pain. Your violet sparkles, golden light, and green eyes caught me.
[Adventures of the Galaxy Rangers, guessed correctly by
elbales]
2. Nobody believed in you. There were four attempts before the fifth turned out working, and even that was a haphazard chaos, few people put faith in. Yet it worked out, in the past and the future and even in the darkness of a new middle ages.
[Babylon-5, not guessed]
3. Spaceships on the surface, a war against the gods on a planet not fully terraformed yet. You are a beautifully drawn movie, but still I always believed your story to be more complicated than could be told in your roughly two hours.
[Big Wars, not guessed]
4. When I discovered that you are based on novels written in the 1940s I was thrilled. But before I even read them, I played in my mind with your drop-formed ship.
[Captain Future by Edmond Hamilton, not guessed]
5. I just discovered you, after I fell in love with your arch enemy a few weeks ago. Your name means nothing, but you are anything but. In fact, you kind of remind me of the hero in 4. :)
[Cosmowarrior Zero by Leiji Matsumoto, not guessed]
6. You are feckless and powerful, strong and confused; a knight in shining armor, who scrapes his knee on the parapet of a crumbling wooden fortress with an owl to lead him through the shadows into the arms of one soon to be king.
[Fortress in the Eye of Time by C. J. Cherryh, guessed correctly by
elbales]
7. You are tough, smart, and deadly - and despite you telling your own tale, I'm sticking around waiting eagerly for the next natural death.
[John Rain the assassin created by Barry Eisler, not guessed]
8. Kill the frogs! And then fall back to earth, Commander! 264 is waiting for your astrogator.
[Raumpatrouille, guessed correctly by
rheasilvia]
9. You leave none of your characters truly unharmed, though your creators proclaimed never to do a resurrection, at least one of your (minor) characters came back from destruction.
[X, guessed correctly by
solo____]
10. You carry the X and the pentagram. Sakura petals flutter like snow flakes through your blood tinted pictures. Your men are dead, guilt-ridden, powerful, mysterious and/or perverted.
[Yami no Matsuei or Descendants of Darkness, guessed correctly by
jjblue1]
11. Your dead sidhe prince changed forever my perception of what elves (and sidhe) are supposed to be. I never wrote fanfic about you, but there are two pastel chalk pictures and an original shortstory of mine, clearly being inspired by you.
[The Dreaming Tree by C. J. Cherryh, guessed correctly by
elbales]
And? Any idea who they are? :)

Most likely not even the year. ;)
No, I don't know of any real panics. Just a lot prognosted ones that didn't happen. The millenium bug... well, thanks to some meat cans in the US being labelled as out of date on the day of their production in 1982, people had enough time to prepare for it. :)

Or maybe Seishiro would have persuaded Subaru to watch the final battle on tv...
With him you never know...
