I think I like a lot of things, but when I think of "fandom," I tend to wander into media and hobbies which I've put a significant amount of investment into in terms of money and the community. So in that case, I only have two.
First, I love Sonic The Hedgehog; ever since he debuted in '91, I've stuck by him through thick and thin, playing the games, acquiring tapes and DVDs of the shows, watching the anime before it premiered in the US (subs forever), collecting merch, and making a foothold in the community. My second other biggest fandom is Furry. I enjoy animals, and I love the artistic freedom the culture exemplifies. There are no limits to how you can express yourself as a Furry, and I personally choose to do so through creating art and fursuiting, which the kids just adore. Can't forget the conventions; it's a great way to meet interesting people and see some awesome art and dance talent!
Oh wait, here's a weird one: seiyuu! That's the Japanese term for "voice actor." While I love learning about the talent in the English voice acting world through articles and interviews, the Japanese voice acting world is different in how comparatively famous they are within their own country. Idol culture permeates, so lots of voice actors there do things like stage and live-action work, as well as photo shoots for magazines and huge events where they sing, dance and do live-readings. You come for the glitz and glamour and stay for the derpiness. All Japanese voice actors act amusingly like children.
All of them.

Ooh, a Zoids fan! Awesome to meet another one! ^^;; My personal favorite series was Zoids Zero. People call it shallow, but I found it immensely enjoyable due in no small part to the awesome battle animation. How about you?

I don't really have a favorite Zoids series, although I did enjoy watching them (I've yet to finish Zoids Genesis though). I'm a little more interested in the model kits.

My "main" fandom fluctuates a lot. Right now it's the Heroes of Olympus series. I'm also in the following fandoms: W.I.T.C.H., Avatar: The Last Airbender/Legend of Korra, Sailor Moon, Bravest Warriors, High School Musical, Yu-Gi-Oh!, Neopets, Madoka, InuYasha, Soul Eater, Adventure Time, Community, Professor Layton, Winx Club, and Clock Tower. I'm probably also forgetting a few that I haven't been active in for a while.

Hi, my name's Ashley, and I'm a fandom addict...
I started off in a Bam Margera sort of fandom, and segued into Bandom, where I was content and happy for quite a while.
I'm currently rolling around gleefully in Pacific Rim, Hannibal (which is super win, because my first ever fanfic was based on the book), and Night Vale... with quiiiite the soft spot for Avengers.
I occasionally cheat with H50 or Elementary or Sherlock, though... and every now and then I have to revisit some of my favorite Supernatural stories, even though I'm behind on the show... and don't even get me started on my Harry Potter feels.
The most recent stuff I've been reading have been rereads of some of my favorites in Bandom.
My Tumblr is such a hot mess of "OOH PRETTY", it's ridiculous.
