SJ's popularity in Chinese fandom

Hi! So discussing about SJ’s characters, I got curious.

I love fandom statistics, but unfortunately I can’t do them. Shame.

But I like to compare numbers.

So I’m glad to present you the popularity of SJ in Chinese fandom.

And of course if I’ve messed up something, please correct me.

So SV is not a new novel, but the fandom is pretty active, because it was greatly delivered by MDZS’s success.

Of course many fans existed pre-2019, but it was not so common.

So. Ok.

The platform I’ve studied is Lofter, because I already know and like it. I can repeat this analysis with Weibo, if anybody is interested.

If you think Lofter isn’t representative, I’d love to discover a new one.

The machine translation I’ve used is google. I’ve tried DeepL, but I preferred Google for this one.

Disclaimers:

-Of course those are numbers. We can’t know if those posts are positive or negative about the ship and the character. My subjective experience as a fan is that usually Lofter users tag appropriately and not use lots of “anti” rhetoric.

-I know that fandom popularity doesn’t mean lots. Some pairings are AO3 very famous and the characters never interact! Some very popular ships are about characters who don’t even exist (like MorMo*!). But sometimes is nice to win the fandom lottery. Especially if my fave has a tragic terribile canon.

Conclusion:

-SVSSS is smaller than MDZS but it’s an healthy and lively fandom

-SJ seems to be very popular. In fact he’s the most popular characters after BingQiu.

-XY has more posts than JGY. (My baby wins the lottery fandom)

-LBH is the most popular character, followed by SY (called SQQ, ofc)

-BingQiu is the most popular ship of the fandom (duh)

-BingJiu is SJ’s most popular pairing (duh)

In conclusion:

I’m happy because I’ve won another fandom lottery and this means lots and lots of free content for me.
