The Loony Fan is an obsessive fan who worships the ground another character walks on. This character often (not always) follows their heroes everywhere out of sheer admiration, either causing trouble or just creeping them out. Extreme loony fans may go to great lengths and evil deeds to "help" the hero they idolize. They take their eventual rejection very personally. Occasionally this character will really go off the deep end and attempt to replace their idol. This can also overlap with the Straw Fan, The Collector (who may form a Nerd Hoard), Yandere, Shipper on Deck, Psycho Supporter, or Stalker with a Crush. Commonly known to say "I'm Your Biggest Fan". Compare Actor/Role Confusion, Cannot Tell Fiction from Reality. Contrast with Ascended Fanboy. Sad (and a little scary) to say, this is very much Truth in Television. See Fan Dumb. |

Bob Roberts has a collection of Loony Fans (including a young Jack Black) who start off as kooky religious fanatics and then quickly upgrade to outright malicious when they assault a group of protestors outside one of his concerts. One of them is implied to have shot and killed Bugs Raplin, who was exposing some of Roberts' dirty secrets until Roberts faked an assassination attempt (and the paraplegia that followed) and pinned the blame on him, and when one of the fans camped outside his house catches him walking around by a window, he immediately assumes it was a miracle instead suspecting any foul play. | |

Roma Hoito from Tokyo Ghoul, a clumsy waitress who started working at Anteiku for the chance to meet "One-Eyed Kaneki-sama". The sequel reveals her to be an even loonier fan than expected, declaring that she wants to "kill" Haise because she can't stand seeing her beloved Kaneki happy and thinks he's most beautiful when his life is in ruins. | |

RainbowDoubleDash's Lunaverse: Kindle for Celestia. Even before she got out of the sun, he wasn't entirely sane, having severe difficulty distinguishing between fiction and reality. Then he learned his beloved queen was lost, and immediately ran off to join her. He's willing to do anything, anything to please her, morality or consequences be damned. | |

Jack Wilson from the Decoy episode "The Shadow of Van Gogh" is a Starving Artist who is so obsessed with Vincent van Gogh that he paints a near-exact replica of "The Starry Night", grows a beard so he can look more like Vincent van Gogh, and even signs one of his paintings "Vincent." Another character tells a story of Jack showing up to a party with a bandage wrapped around his head, holding a very realistic papier-mâché ear. | |

Swarm: Dre's obsessive love of Ni'Jah seems to stem from a combination of wanting to be loved and wanting to be noticed. As a result, she decides to kill any person who even so much as criticizes Ni'Jah under the belief that this will prove her devotion to the singer. This is not portrayed as a good thing, and in fact leads to Dre becoming a Serial Killer on the run from the law in the process. | |

The Simpsons: Melody Juniper in the episode "Flaming Moe". There's also Julia, a fan of Homer's in the episode where he becomes an opera singer. She threatens to tell the police that Homer attacked her unless he sleeps with her, then when Homer point-blank rejects her, she turns flat-out Yandere. Although not used often, it's a Running Gag that Patty and Selma are this for MacGyver. Some of the more prominent examples include: Beating up Jay Sherman, stripping him down to his underpants and hanging him by said underpants from the gutter of the roof for claiming that Richard Dean Anderson is gay. Selma, who at the time was passionately in love with Sideshow Bob, almost declaring the wedding is off because he hates Macgyver. Upon meeting Richard Dean Anderson in "Kiss, Kiss, Bang, Bangalore", they harass him incessantly, talking about how much they loved Macgyver but hated Stargate SG-1 until he snaps and confesses that he hated working on Macgyver and only did it for the money. They respond by kidnapping him and tying him to a chair, though this ends up a case of Gone Horribly Right for them. In the "Treehouse Of Horror X" segment "Desperately Xeeking Xena", Comic Book Guy is shown as a hammy supervillain named "The Collector" who kidnaps Lucy Lawless along with other pop culture icons before Bart and Lisa intervene. |

One episode of Dragnet involves a Woobie loony fan. Stanley Stover has had a very hard childhood of paternal abandonment and constant bullying all through school. At a young age, superhero comics and movies offered escape, and he came to identify with these superheroes completely. He had been stealing memorabilia since late grade school, but at twenty-three, he felt driven to accelerate the pace of his thefts. By this time, he was also dressing as his own secret identity, the Crimson Crusader. At the end of the episode, it was revealed that while on probation he received psychiatric help. | |

iCarly: Mandy. After appearing as a guest on their web show, she followed Carly, Sam, and Freddie around constantly and even switched schools to be around them, which drove them crazy. Mandy eventually became obsessed with a band and seemingly moved on to pestering them but a more recent episode showed she was back to obsessing over iCarly. There's Nora Dershlit, whose obsession with iCarly makes Mandy look sane by comparison. She kidnaps the iCarly crew and locks them in her basement under the delusion that they are her friends. She just gets even more Ax-Crazy from there... |

Bungo Stray Dogs: Osamu Dazai takes away Ryunosuke Akutagawa (and presumably his sister too) from the slum, and the boy since then admires him. Akutagawa wants Dazai's approval so badly, the first thing he does when he wakes up after Oda rescues him is attacking him because Dazai once told him he would never be as strong as that man. The main reason he hates Atsushi so many years later is that said boy easily gets Dazai's recognition without needing to undergo much of the Tough Love he once suffered from. Ironically, the writers they're based on have quite the opposite situation, with RL!Dazai known for being a huge fan of RL!Akutagawa. When Akutagawa died of suicide, Dazai attempted to follow suit with the same method but failed, and then tried to kill himself for the third time when he couldn't get the literary prize named after his idol. |

The Flash: One of Reverse-Flash's many origin stories was that he was this to The Flash. He snapped when he realized he was destined to be killed by his hero, thus making it into a Self-Fulfilling Prophecy. He got better. Interestingly, much like William Burnside above, he also got plastic surgery to resemble his hero of choice AND impersonated him as well, but where Burnside did it to help the government make the public believe he was the original, Thawne did it because he was just plain obsessed with Barry. | |

The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent has wealthy Javi Gutierrez. The billionaire loves Nicolas Cage to the point of having several memorabilia with Nick's likeness, paying a hefty fee to invite him to his birthday party, and scripting an idea for a future Nick Cage vehicle. Javi also takes movies too seriously for someone who doesn't professionally make any, as evidenced when he cries that Nick would "turn [his] back on the entire human race" if he quits acting. | |

Jim Sterling has taken some time in The Jimquisition to show some of the more... out there gifts that their fans have sent them. Such things include a rubber replica of a pornstar's fist, a dragon tongue dildo, and a gay furry porn comic book. The sex toys have been used for various jokes, but the comic was a bit too loony. | |

"Bill Watterson" is about a narrator who's fanatically devoted to Bill Watterson, the creator of Calvin and Hobbes, and has an erotomania delusion, wherein a person believes that someone else is in love with them, usually a celebrity; in this case, it manifests in him thinking that Bill Watterson is communicating with him through the comics. | |

Lecto from Magical × Miracle has a series-long obsession with Yue (as well as great admiration for Merleawe for being so close to him), to the point where things get... awkward. However, this turns out well for both of them; Lecto eventually becomes an in-series Promoted Fanboy as one of Yue's top aides, and his nerdy personality quirks and stalker-like obsession settle down after Yue puts him through three years of Workaholic boot camp. | |

SCP Foundation: SCP-7105 actively preys on fans like these, seeking out the most obsessive devotees of singer Sophia Alvarez and roping them in with the promise of a private meeting - in which they will be brutally murdered by SCP-7105-1, a Humanoid Abomination masquerading as the real Sophia Alvarez. And they have to be the most obsessive fans, because nobody else would be stupid or desperate enough to accept a shady offer from an unverified email address. In the example given, victim Robert Boies not only attempted to invite Sophia Alvarez to his birthday party but owned a Stalker Shrine consisting of more than 523 photographs of her and several dolls in her likeness. In fact, he was so obsessed with Sophia Alvarez that, after managing to escape SCP-7105-1's initial assault with just an eye injury, he went right back into the house just to let it kill him. | |

In The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion the Adoring Fan (no, that's his actual name) starts pestering you after you win the title of Arena champion. He's loud, obnoxious, and tends to flee from combat - but this is all intentional, due to him being a Take That! to those who wanted multiplayer in the game. Unlike most examples of this trope, though, he will leave you alone if you tell him to (even if you're both in Mehrunes Dagon's realm). | |

The video for "Lego House" by Ed Sheeran has Rupert Grint playing one. The twist is that at first, he seems to be starring as Sheeran: he mimes the song's lyrics, wanders Sheeran's trailer and house, and during the final bridge he walks up on stage to thunderous applause... at which point a security guard runs on stage and tackles him to the ground, revealing him to be nothing more than an obsessed fan. After this, the video gets rather more disturbing (including Grint eating Sheeran's chewing gum), before it ends with him being escorted out of the venue, passing the real Ed Sheeran on the way. | |

In Shining Song Starnova, an obsessive and violent stalker has a major role in two routes. In Mika’s route, the stalker takes her role in the spectacular failure of the Black Opera TV adaptation as a personal insult, and starts harassing Mika in increasingly dangerous ways (to the point of forming a posse to try and kidnap her). In Julie’s route, this same stalker attempts to murder Julie in broad daylight during a public relations event because of a false sex scandal involving her and the lead singer of a boy band. |

As such, Team Yell will antagonize anyone who is competing against Marnie for the position, which includes the player. As it turns out, they're actually Gym Trainers for Marnie's brother Piers and thus are supporting her in his stead (albeit overenthusiastically). | |

In Making Money, antagonist Cosmo Lavish is a Loony Fan of Vetinari, who seeks to replace him by becoming him. He wears the same style of clothes and beard, sends his henchmen to steal Vetinari's signature personal items by replacing them with replicas (they skip a step and just give him the replicas), and even has a machine to train him to raise one eyebrow. Cosmo actually starts off as reasonably competent, if a bit of a Smug Snake, but his obsession eventually descends into insanity and he's last seen in the asylum, where he finds out he's not the only person with his problem. | |

In Carole & Tuesday, both Tuesday and Angela Carpenter have to deal with such a fan at different points. In the former case, there's the twist that the fan - Cybelle - is a fellow Mars' Brightest contestant, and upon being spurned she attempts to sabotage the duo's chances by sending Tuesday a package filled with dry ice that burns her hands. In the latter case, the fan's behaviour escalates all the way up to trying to shoot Angela while she's on-stage, and the whole thing helps kickstart Angela's Trauma Conga Line. | |

It's to the point where Kazumi is willing to spend money just to get a handshake with Mii-Tan and even flirts with a Mii-Tan body pillow right in front of the real Mii-Tan. At the same time however, Kazumi is a pretty alright guy barring his eccentricities, and he acts nothing but respectful towards Mii-Tan herself, even if he does see her as his future wife. Sure enough, they do eventually hook up at the end of Kazumi's V-Cinema movie. | |

Green Lantern: In Green Lantern Corps, Iolande's brother Ragnar was so obsessed with the Corps he murdered every potential Lantern candidate in their sector so he would end up the best candidate for the position, including his brother Stentar and Soranik Natu's partner Myrrt. When Ragnar was finally exposed, captured, and set for execution, Soranik purposefully chose to reveal that Iolande would be the new Green Lantern of Sector 1417 right before Ragnar would be beheaded. To add to this moment, Ragnar made an empty admission of guilt and repentance to show he "wasn't afraid" before his execution, thinking he still had a chance to be a Lantern. The look on his face when Soranik takes out the ring, then gives it to his sister, is satisfying. | |

Sinfest: Seymour, an ultra-religious character who goes around chiding people for not being pious enough. God refers to him as his "loony fanboy." The devil thinks God needs a better representation and likes to make fun of him. He has his own lame-ass fanboy, L'il Evil, as well. Who writes "Devil Fanfics". Since drinking from Lethe, L'il E seems to have dropped the Loony Fan tendencies, and in fact is sort of creeped out by his old self. Monique tried to play a crazy fangirl, but wasn't ready to go far enough to be believable, so she... outsourced this. A third fanboy was recently introduced for the third creator figure—the Author Avatar ("Will you sign my face?"). Sinfest now has the first loony fangirl in a 'Nique's It-Girl persona's fangirl. Though, she is revealed to be a more benign example than the others after a chat with Monique. |

Fans! (a comic which itself focused on fans of various sci-fi/fantasy shows) played with this concept when it introduced the character of Tim the Fanboy, a geeky stereotypical 'fanboy' who was a near-obsessive fan of the main characters. Unfortunately for them, once he realized that they weren't perfect, he felt betrayed and in turn betrayed them to become the 'fan' of a psychopathic time-traveling warlord who was doing her very best to wipe them out of existence. | |

Jem had a dark example in an episode where the protagonist puts some serious effort into finding Ba Nee's missing father. The Loony Fan in question was one of the three men who fit the profile (a red-haired man of a certain age who was a veteran) who was a fan of Jem and a gambling addict. He was definitely not Ba Nee's father, but learning his idol was looking for such a man caused him to shift to a Yandere-type, kidnapping Ba Nee with blackmail on his mind. (Eventually resulting in another of the three suspects - her actual father - showing up with Papa Wolf intentions; it ended badly for said Loony Fan.) | |

The Nostalgia Critic's Douchey McNitpick, a "fan" that watched all his videos 37 times solely to find all of the Critic's mistakes and harshly call him out on them. Ironically, both are played by Doug Walker. The reboot had Hyper Fangirl, stalking the Critic with the intent to make him love her, culminating in her holding him hostage and forcing him at gunpoint to be her boyfriend and review a movie with her. |

Rogues Gallery: The series focuses on a group of entitled fans of the Show Within a Show Red Rogue, a long-running comic series that also has a live-action TV show going for eight seasons. Said fans spend all the time calling the show bullshit for not sticking closer to the source material and blaming all of its problems on Maisie Wade, the actress playing the title character. After Maisie not only acquires a signed copy of Red Rogue Down #1 and later quits the show, the show itself gets cancelled before it could adapt the Red Rogue Down storyline. That's the point the fans decide she's "ruined" things beyond repair and plan revenge by doing a home invasion to steal the comic. It soon becomes clear the ringleader plans to reenact Red Rogue Down by killing Maisie's assistant, with plans to kill Maisie and her husband as well. | |

Real-Time Fandubs version of Shadow the Hedgehog has Black Doom remade as The Devil ("from the Bible") who constantly nags shadow, trying to get him to do evil and go to Hell, and just constantly follows him. Multiple times The Devil recalls Shadow taking him to Chuck E. Cheese and him getting a prize. By the end of the dub, it is revealed that Shadow was genetically engineered by Gerald Robotnik to be The Devil's best friend and was Shadow's first subscriber on Twitch. In The Devil's mind, this justifies his obsession as Shadow owes him attention and friendship ala parasocial relationship. Unfortunately for him, Gerald deliberately changed Shadow's programming at the last second as a joke. | |

The Powerpuff Girls (1998) had fat geek Lenny Baxter, who after buying every piece of Powerpuff Girls merchandise decided to kidnap the girls themselves and seal them inside action figure packages! Dick Hardly was even worse as he was so obsessed with them that he created knock off clones of them for profit. | |

In Medusa's Web, Amity Madden is obsessed with the actress Alla Nazimova (the creator and star of Salome (1923), which Amity regularly watches on a film projector with a film copy she's owned since long before it became available on home video). The extent of her obsession only gradually becomes apparent; it's eventually revealed that her ultimate goal is to use Mental Time Travel to become Alla Nazimova. | |

Although, one can make a case about whether you can call her "loony" or not, since she has the potential to train herself to improvement, and is part of her own extended group of fighters (Dan, Blanka, and Karin, for starters). Even the aforementioned Street Fighter V deconstructs her passion for fighting by having her openly wonder about whether that truly is the life she wants after graduating from high school. Her UDON version, however, runs with the "Ryu #1 fangirl" characterization to the point that she follows him around the world, comes to train under him some time after the World Warrior tournament (in the games, she's perfectly fine with Dan as a pseudo-teacher/sparring partner), and goes so far as to succumb to the Satsui no Hado if it means having enough power to save Ryu from the Illuminati. | |

Upon meeting Richard Dean Anderson in "Kiss, Kiss, Bang, Bangalore", they harass him incessantly, talking about how much they loved Macgyver but hated Stargate SG-1 until he snaps and confesses that he hated working on Macgyver and only did it for the money. They respond by kidnapping him and tying him to a chair, though this ends up a case of Gone Horribly Right for them. | |

Avatar: The Last Airbender: The foaming mouth guy, who appears twice, is one of these. His only distinguishing characteristic is how he foams at the mouth and collapses on the ground whenever Aang is nearby. Or at the very least thinks Aang is nearby; when Sokka and Katara go back to Kyoshi Island without Aang he winds up embarrassing himself and walks off in shame. Zuko also seems to have his own in "Nightmares and Daydreams"; she has to be carted off by his guards. |

She also displays a lot of Stalker with a Crush tendencies, and at one point admitted to Zii's face that I Just Want to Be You (before quickly Verbal Backspacing it to "be like you"). | |

In the sequel he shows up again and says that you assaulted him, due to a save error that assumes you took the Renegade option. Since that point, he's taken to dressing in a replica of your armor and acting as you did in the first game with side quests and looting. If you manage to talk him down, he'll go back to normal life; if you upset him, he'll fall into a sewage treatment plant's turbines. This bug gets referenced in Mass Effect 3, where if you took the Paragon route in Mass Effect, Conrad apologizes for having accused Shepard of pointing a gun at him (the Renegade option), saying he was just really stressed out at the timenote For the record, the Paragon dialogue can be found here | |

He shows up again in the final game, this time claiming that Cerberus is an ally of Shepard, and thus the galaxy. After being set straight, Conrad eventually reveals that he has a Stalker Shrine dedicated to Shepard. Additionally, you get a bit of background to the guy: when Shepard sarcastically asks if Conrad can help build an ancient dark-energy powered device to stop the Reapers, Conrad responds that he wrote his doctoral dissertation on xenotechnology and dark energy integration. Yes, you read that right; Conrad Verner is actually Dr. Conrad Verner. Later on, he Takes The Bullet meant for Shepard from an assassination attempt, possibly dying in the process, only surviving because another NPC that Shepard helped in the past sabotaged the gun at the last second. | |

In The Citadel DLC, Shepard is attacked by an evil clone. During the final fight the clone insists that they're better than Shepard. Shepard responds with "Are you kidding me? Conrad Verner is better at being me than you are!" Proving that some things just run in the family, Mass Effect: Andromeda has a brief (as in one non-storyline conversation) with a Miss Cassandra Verner, Conrad's sister. She claims Conrad's behavior was so irritating she had to leave the galaxy, then turns out to be crazier than he is. Conrad at least hero worships an actual hero, where Cass worships a crime lord (and for further crazy points, has a "plan" to ingratiate herself to the woman, then phone up her brother and brag about this to him. From another galaxy. Six hundred years after he would have died). And in a non-Verner example, Andromeda also has a krogan geneticist for the late Doctor Okeer, a very infamous krogan scientist. The geneticist knew him! Well, he talked to him. Once. And Okeer told him to get lost. Said geneticist is fanboyish enough to bring what he could of Okeer's work to Andromeda and tasks Ryder with fetching it when his assistant misplaces it. |

Batman: The extradimensional imp Bat-Mite in the wackier comics. Thomas Elliot, a former childhood friend of Bruce Wayne, has been described as obsessed with Bruce Wayne to the extent that some sources have him arrange for the deaths of his own parents to imitate the deaths of Thomas and Martha Wayne (other sources have the accident occur before the Waynes died). After Elliot becomes a more active threat, he goes so far as to give himself plastic surgery to look like Bruce Wayne with the goal of taking Bruce's identity and wealth for himself. On a more serious note, recent villain Matthew Warner is essentially a warped "fan" of Bruce Wayne who went so far as to insist that others call him "Master Bruce", and had his own parents killed to imitate the events that (Warner believed) gave him the "drive" to help Gotham. Warner has essentially been described as what would happen if Bruce Wayne was a Batman villain. |

Big Fan is a Black Comedy following a man whose entire life revolves around the New York Giants and in particular their star running back. He and his best friend religiously go to every game, but because they can't afford tickets they watch the game on a portable TV in the stadium parking lot. His faith is unshaken even after his idol beats him up in a nightclub. The film ends with him serving a short stint in jail for assaulting a Philadelphia Eagles fan and looking forward to being released in time for a major game. | |

Mickie James' original gimmick in WWE was as Trish Stratus's creepy stalker fannote She'd written the storyline herself, intending to work with Lita, who she was a big fan of. Unfortunately by the time of her call-up, Lita was injured with a torn ACL, and so the storyline was given to Trish instead.. Oddly enough, since Trish retired, Mickie's actually developed into Trish's Expy. And in 2022, there were reportedly plans for them to do a successor to the storyline with Chelsea Green in Mickie's role as the fan, but they were scrapped when both got released. | |

The Punisher MAX: Jenny comes across as this. After seeing Frank shot by the woman she is targeting, she saves him and takes him to her apartment. The scenes between them invoke Misery, and Frank feels a little like her prisoner, but Jenny does nothing to stop him and the reason he can't leave is his gunshot injuries, and he patiently listens as she describes what was done to her, and sympathy for what was done to him. Jenny then has two requests: his shirt and jacket so she can become The Punisher and kill the woman who hurt her, and that he stay until she finishes it. Frank feels more and more like he's trapped, and that Jenny would stop him even if he could leave, before passing out and ending up handcuffed so Jenny can show him how to torture criminals. | |

Seven years earlier, Tori (Terri Poch) was this for Sable. The original plan was for her to be a long-lost sister, but Sable herself kept insisting on changes to it, so they just went with an obsessed fan. However, the angle presented Sable as the heel who used Tori to win matches, and Tori eventually had enough to challenge her for the Women's Championship. | |

An episode of KaBlam! had to do with a fan visiting the set of the show, and constantly annoying Henry and June due to his huge obsession with them. He even wears Henry's outfit, June's sweatshirt, and even has his hair blue dyed to match June's (either that or it's natural). June constantly refers to him as "Weird Ryan from school", meaning the duo already knew him. | |

In Blades of Glory, Jimmy having one of these is kind of what causes the plot to kick off, but in a surprisingly non-scary way in spite of some of the creepy things that the loony fan says to him. This particular fan of his is so obsessed with the idea of having Jimmy back on the rink and is so much the type to think about these things a lot that he manages to find a loophole in the Figure Skating Championships rulebook that Jimmy then exploits. | |

In Star vs. the Forces of Evil, there's a student at Echo Creek Academy known only as StarFan13 who is, as her name would suggest, a huge fan of Star. She also ships Star with Marco and writes fanfiction about the two, and she passes out when Star admits to Marco that she has a crush on him right before she leaves Earth. Word of God says that she was initially supposed to have one appearance, but the crew liked her so much that she was made a recurring character. | |

Death Note: Misa Amane is this to Villain Protagonist Light Yagami, albeit a particularly dark, homicidal example; after he winds up killing the guy who killed her parents, she's more than glad to murder his enemies or endure Cold-Blooded Torture to protect his identity. She's also glad to flying tackle him at unexpected intervals, much to his dismay. A crucial part of her own backstory involves a narrow escape from a loony fan - the parallel is as lost on Misa as warnings about moral decay are on Light. From the Light Novel Another Note, Beyond Birthday is this to L and imitates the latter's dress and mannerisms. |

Monk: Sarah Silverman is the equally alliterative Marci Maven, who is like this to the point that she's furnished her house with furniture Monk threw out, and she's wearing his old pants. During a case, Marci even goes so far as to act as Monk's self-appointed social buffer, by performing his obsessive-compulsive tendencies for him, and gives a man Monk is about to question a list of "ground rules" about how not to annoy him, while all Monk has to do is stand behind and wait. Apparently, Monk also took out a restraining order against her. Amusingly this extends to minor Meta Guy traits, like referring to his cases by episode title. | |

Superman: The Silver Age Lex Luthor started off as one of these. He and Clark both grew up in Smallville — Clark started his superheroics early as Superboy, and Lex became obsessed with him. Lex one day came across Superboy dying in a field from a nearby Kryptonite meteorite and rescued him, and when he took a grateful Superboy back to his home the latter discovered that Lex has built a Stalker Shrine of him, with walls and benches decorated with various souvenirs from Superboy's many exploits. Superboy thanked Lex for saving him by building him a brand new state-of-the-art laboratory, and Lex decided to help Superboy by using it to find an antidote to Kryptonite poisoning. While experimenting with Kryptonite, Lex accidentally set his lab on fire, forcing Superboy to save him by using his super-breath, something that put out the fire but also wrecked the lab and caused chemicals to spill over Luthor's head, causing his hair to fall out. Luthor crazily thought that Superboy did this on purpose out of envy of Luthor's genius, and Lex attempted and failed numerous times to embarrass Superboy in revenge, until he finally snapped and started plotting to outright kill him, becoming the Arch-Enemy to the future Man of Steel. | |

Darker than Black: Played for laughs: Kiko is portrayed as slightly crazy anyway, but her crush on "Li" tops all other quirks. She almost jumps on him with Squee, loudly insults her "rival" Kirihara, and generally attracts unnecessary attention... which is somewhat disconcerting for her hero, as "Li" is the facade identity of a lad who earned his nickname "Black Shinigami". Hei has another one in the OVA, Mayu, with the added bonus that she manages to connect his identities (thereby beating out the entire police force) and starts actively stalking him. |

Kim Possible: Kim Possible's cousin Joss admires Kim so much that she dresses completely in Kim's style, has numerous pictures of Kim plastered around her room, talks about nothing except for Kim, and even accidentally makes Kim fail the mission by trying to copy her in the middle of the action. In the end, she learns not to admire Kim that much, so she starts admiring the sidekick Ron Stoppable instead. Frugal Lucre drove Dr. Drakken to distraction with his non-stop praise and commentary while they were sharing a prison cell. After they got out of prison, he found Drakken's lair and talked him into pulling a joint caper. |

Linda Belcher of Bob's Burgers has repeatedly demonstrated a very odd fixation with their town's mayor. Unlike many of the examples listed here, Linda's obsession with the mayor is entirely innocent, just very odd and confusing. Bob asks her in "I Bob Your Pardon" why she likes the mayor so much, and Linda spends most of the episode pissed off at Deputy Mayor Cunningham just for being there. During "Hawk and Chick," Linda is shocked when informed Tina is getting to dub lines for the mayor in the "Hawk and Chick" movie, repeatedly trying to read the lines herself when Tina tells her to back off. She plays this trope straight in "Mother Author Laser Pointer" when Bea Cromwell, creator of the "Snail & Newt" books, arrives at the restaurant waiting for a tow truck. In this case, Linda's feeling overwhelmed by the thought of the kids going to college and repeatedly badgers Bea about the prospect of writing a new "Snail & Newt" so Linda can relive when she read to the kids when they were little. Her actions escalate to cancelling Bea's tow truck to keep her at the restaurant, and when Bea finds out she grows terrified for her safety thinking Linda's trying to kidnap her. Linda only acts more erratic, stealing Bea's car keys and chasing her to Mort's mortuary, until Bea puts her in a headlock and refuses to let go until the tow arrives. |

The Elder Scrolls: In The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion the Adoring Fan (no, that's his actual name) starts pestering you after you win the title of Arena champion. He's loud, obnoxious, and tends to flee from combat - but this is all intentional, due to him being a Take That! to those who wanted multiplayer in the game. Unlike most examples of this trope, though, he will leave you alone if you tell him to (even if you're both in Mehrunes Dagon's realm). Funnily enough, Cicero from The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim apparently took on this persona for a job early in his career... in order to assassinate the Arena Grand Champion. |

She makes a shrine dedicated to him in an old mannequin warehouse, keeps everything he throws away in a locket of his, and when she finds Cricket pretending to be him, holds him hostage and forces him to be her singing partner forever. Emma and the Till-ites from "Little Buddy" are a cult who worship Tilly and everything she does, to the point they wish to be just like her and learn her every move and follow her all over the place until she's driven mad. |

Parodied in the Futurama episode "That's Lobstertainment" when Bender becomes the official stalker to robot actor Calculon. He does it again in The Beast with a Billion Backs. Calculon asks outright if Bender's going to kill him, and Bender states that's not likely since in his mind they're friends. In the comic version, he specifically denies having broken into Calculon's house at night and transfused their oils so they'd always be together. Bender is this to alien celebrity chef Elzar, too. |

In Scream (2022), Ghostface is a pair of extremely possessive fans of the Stab series who believe that the films only work when they're Based on a True Story. They despised the most recent film, the more experimental Stab 8, so much that they staged a new murder spree in order to generate new source material and fresh ideas for a series that they thought had run out of such. They even lured Sidney, Gale, and Dewey back into the action in order to kill them, seeing them as the iconic real-life heroes of Stab who had to be included in their Un-Reboot. One character compares Ghostface here to a fanfiction writer. | |

Saturday Night Live: The current page quote comes from a sketch about a support group for obsessive fans of Mr. Belvedere. They play a game called "Should and Shouldn't" which "helps keep the line between fantasy and reality a little less blurry": They once did a direct parody of Misery featuring Roseanne Barr as Dana Carvey's biggest fan. After Carvey announces he's retiring the Church Lady character, then gets into a car accident with John Lovitz, Barr rescues him (but apparently left Lovitz to die). When she finds out he's killed off the Church Lady, she starts trying to dress him up as her, to the point of painfully shoving orthopedic shoes on his mangled legs. They get in a fight until Lovitz shows up completely unharmed, kills Barr, and kills Carvey so he can steal the Church Lady character. |

It turns out he used to own a radio station and would play one of her records over and over again in the hopes that she would notice him and help him become a famous singer himself. Eventually, someone got mad about it and stabbed him in the throat, causing him to lose his voice and his job. | |

Sonic the Hedgehog: Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog has Sonette, who, along with changing her name, has snuck into Sonic's room while he was sleeping and stolen merchandise from him. She also is frequently seen with a piece of Sonic's chewed gum in her mouth.note Sonic had earlier claimed that he doesn't chew gum, which leads to speculation on whose gum that really is. Sonic Boom: Mark from "The Biggest Fan" is more than a little obsessed with Sonic and friends, to the point he writes "spicy" SonAmy fan fiction and tries to hold an injured Sonic captive a la Misery. |

Being a Loony Fan on Celebrity Deathmatch is dangerous. In an episode where Lucy Lawless appeared as a guest commentator, several loony teenage fans came to the arena, including an overeager fangirl dressed like the ones in Comic-Con who got into the announcing booth; she was quickly catapulted out of it with a device installed just for that purpose, impaling the popcorn guy as she landed. Later, during the TLC / Dixie Chicks match, the same fangirl excitedly volunteered when Lucy asked for help to decide which team got to choose ring theme; the decision was made by the two groups grabbing the poor fangirl by the arms and legs, then pulling until she was torn in half, then measuring the two pieces. | |

Gokudera from Reborn! (2004). He frequently goes off to beat people up for Tsuna's sake, and follows Tsuna around trying desperately to be his "Right Hand Man." The funny thing is that his attempt to replace the hero was actually his initial feeling and that it's after being defeated by Tsuna that he becomes his loony fan. | |

In Ninjago, the Sons of Garmadon introduced in Season 8 are loony fans of the late Lord Garmadon. What makes it worse is that they idolize him for his power and none of his redeeming qualities which they believe held him back. Their plan is to use the Oni Masks to bring Garmadon back from the dead devoid of said redeeming qualities. By the end of the season, they succeed. | |

He does have a hidden gift that makes Nero keep him, though: he brings good luck. For instance, if he writes down the lottery numbers it will be automatically a winning combination. | |

While most Decepticons are out for power, love fighting, or are just plain psycho or sadistic, Lugnut in Transformers: Animated follows Megatron because he completely idealizes him. His constant praise annoys even Megatron, who in one memorable scene actually gets a robot version of a Twitchy Eye because Lugnut won't stop talking about how glorious he is instead of actually going outside and doing his job. | |

My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic: Rainbow Dash in a fourth season episode follows around Daring Do/A.K. Yearling, babbling constantly while the latter is trying to maintain a low profile and prevent a disaster, despite it being made quite clear that her assistance and attention are very much not wanted. The saner members of the group try to get her to leave her idol alone, but she just flies off and continues stalking her hero. By the end of the episode, she manages to get over the loony aspect of her fandom, and the two become genuine friends. Rainbow Dash herself has two in her parents (combined with Amazingly Embarrassing Parents). Scootaloo starts to border on this in the seventh season, following Rainbow Dash's parents all over the place. Her scrapbook already contains a lock of Rainbow's mane, and she adds a chunk of a sandwich made with Rainbow's favorite recipe and one of her (used?) diapers over the course of the episode. The Mane Six all get a wave of them after Twilight's old Friendship Journal is published in "Fame And Misfortune". Fluttershy is harassed for supposedly having Aesop Amnesia about assertiveness, Rarity breaks down when she overhears fans badmouthing her, and her boutique gets boycotted, the Apples can't get any work done because they're swamped continually hosting AJ's fans who take her "your family is your friends" lesson too literally, Rainbow Dash can't go anywhere without her fans fawning over how awesome she is (even if she agrees, hearing it constantly is annoying), Pinkie Pie can't say anything without everypony laughing over how funny she is (even when she isn't going for comedy), and Twilight is quite miffed at how fans complain about her "character development" in the Journal and think that she was better before she got wings and should have stayed in Canterlot (completely ignoring the fact that the Journal is nonfictionnote OK, nonfiction as far as the world of Equestria is concerned and that she's an actual pony). In "Once Upon A Zeppelin" Twilight and her family go on a cruise together, only to soon learn that the entire cruise is princess themed and all the other passengers are big fans of her and Cadance. Twilight agrees to do all the activities asked of her as long as her family can do the activities they want to do, and soon she is forced to deal with overbearing fans cheering for her, sign autographs, and deal with a fan named Star Tracker, who won a raffle gets to spend the day with her as an honorary member of her family, but is constantly getting too close to her. Once Twilight politely but firmly asserts herself though and asks to spend the rest of the cruise relaxing with her family, all the passengers immediately agree to give her some space and actually become mad at Iron Will once they learn he swindled her into spending time with them. |

Lemon Demon: "Bill Watterson" is about a narrator who's fanatically devoted to Bill Watterson, the creator of Calvin and Hobbes, and has an erotomania delusion, wherein a person believes that someone else is in love with them, usually a celebrity; in this case, it manifests in him thinking that Bill Watterson is communicating with him through the comics. The narrator of "Touch-Tone Telephone" is a Conspiracy Theorist who's obsessed with a radio show host, thinking the host is the only person who will believe them and trying to get in touch with them so they can explain their crazy theories on the air. |

They once did a direct parody of Misery featuring Roseanne Barr as Dana Carvey's biggest fan. After Carvey announces he's retiring the Church Lady character, then gets into a car accident with John Lovitz, Barr rescues him (but apparently left Lovitz to die). When she finds out he's killed off the Church Lady, she starts trying to dress him up as her, to the point of painfully shoving orthopedic shoes on his mangled legs. They get in a fight until Lovitz shows up completely unharmed, kills Barr, and kills Carvey so he can steal the Church Lady character. | |

Backstage is about Lucie (Isild Le Besco), a particularly obsessed fan (to the point of Celeb Crush) of a superstar singer, Lauren Waks (Emmanuelle Seigner). She manages to make her way into Lauren's inner circle and even has an affair with Lauren's ex, and from there Sanity Slippage ensues. There are also entire groups of fans camping outside the hotel Lauren has a stay in (they even shout at 4am) and an unhinged mob waiting for Lauren at one point (one fan even spits at her car's window out of jealousy for Lucie). | |

Criminal Minds: In the episode "The Performer", the serial killer of the week was the insane fan of a singer with a vampire persona and a mental illness that made her desire to drink blood who got convinced by the singer's manager to commit murders in the name of her idol (the manager really hoped that the spree would bring attention to the singer in order to bring him out of his depression. The singer, who was already sick and tired of having to pretend to be a vampire, is utterly disgusted and horrified at what the manager and the fan did; the fact that the FBI considered him a potential suspect was not really helpful, either. "Tragically Misguided Favor" does not even begin to describe the understatement of the situation). | |

When Batman finally gets a chance to have a face-to-face discussion with the Riddler, he finds out Riddler actually considers them allies and idolizes Batman, having been inspired by his violent crusades in Gotham's underbelly to take up his own persona and crusade. Riddler is shocked when Batman doesn't share the sentiment and instead expresses his disgust for what the Riddler's done. Unfortunately, the Riddler has gained more than a few of his own trigger-happy fans eager to continue his crusade even after he's been captured. | |

Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth - Hacker's Memory: One quest has you hunt down a hacker who betrayed two major hacking syndicates to steal backdoor access to over 10,000 cyberspace accounts, all to get people to attend his favorite Idol Singer's virtual concert. Said idol is a wannabe with only seven fans in real life but managed to nearly reach the top of the charts because of said hacker buying ten million copies of her album (presumably with stolen money), with the other six buying over 100 each. Immediately after that one, the next quest has you investigate an otaku-turned-hikikomori on behalf of his close female friend. The group learns that he's become obsessed with a different idol to the point where he's collected obscene amounts of images of her and spends all his time in cyberspace as part of her reverse harem. When confronted, the idol reveals herself to be a Lotosmon in disguise who brainwashed the men to never leave her side but promises to go straight after being defeated. However, the client's friend is still obsessed with Lotosmon and it takes Erika hacking into his files and subtly changing his pictures of her to look like the client to snap him out of it and the two end up engaged within a week. |

BTS has a legendarily powerful stan community (mostly located on Twitter). The majority of it is fine, but there's enough toxic users in the community that many BTS ARMYs spend more time fighting other fans for their horrible behaviour than actually celebrating the band they like. | |

Soulmate Survey: Vivienne, the president of Teen Idol Adrien's fan club, goes so far as to change her name to Adrienne to match his. She’s so intense when it comes to Adrien, her energy has driven away most of the club members. Lila uses this to her advantage by revealing that Adrien was matched up with another girl on the titular soulmate-searching app, causing Adrienne to break down and get akumatized into Fandoom, who brainwashes anyone in her path and has a wedding set up for Adrien to "marry" her and his other fans (where she also plans to burn Marinette at the stake for being matched to him). | |

Proving that some things just run in the family, Mass Effect: Andromeda has a brief (as in one non-storyline conversation) with a Miss Cassandra Verner, Conrad's sister. She claims Conrad's behavior was so irritating she had to leave the galaxy, then turns out to be crazier than he is. Conrad at least hero worships an actual hero, where Cass worships a crime lord (and for further crazy points, has a "plan" to ingratiate herself to the woman, then phone up her brother and brag about this to him. From another galaxy. Six hundred years after he would have died). | |

Sakura Kasugano was referred to by Ken as 'Ryu's stalker', and not only does she have similar moves, her alternate costume in Street Fighter IV has her dress almost exactly like him (she only has the gi top an, and it still has sleeves, rolled up). Frightening. Street Fighter V then goes the extra mile by giving her a perfect replica of Ryu's gi as an alternate costume. Although, one can make a case about whether you can call her "loony" or not, since she has the potential to train herself to improvement, and is part of her own extended group of fighters (Dan, Blanka, and Karin, for starters). Even the aforementioned Street Fighter V deconstructs her passion for fighting by having her openly wonder about whether that truly is the life she wants after graduating from high school. Her UDON version, however, runs with the "Ryu #1 fangirl" characterization to the point that she follows him around the world, comes to train under him some time after the World Warrior tournament (in the games, she's perfectly fine with Dan as a pseudo-teacher/sparring partner), and goes so far as to succumb to the Satsui no Hado if it means having enough power to save Ryu from the Illuminati. |

Doug: The appropriately titled episode, "Doug's Fan Club," revolves around an 8-year-old kid named Todd looking up to Doug for a change after his impression of Doug's magic tricks. He even goes as far as dressing up as Doug and changing his name to Doug as well. His obsession eventually ends up getting on Doug's nerves, and the latter calls Todd out on it. Doug later regrets his actions and finally finds Todd to let him know he had been trying to get everyone else's attention as well, which causes the two to make up in the end. | |

AI: The Somnium Files has Ota Matsushita, a 25-year-old otaku who spends all his time and money on an 18-year-old e-girl/Idol Singer he's friends with. When Date first meets him he's defending her online against his own strawman sockpuppet accounts for attention from her, and he reveals himself to be willing to go to other extreme lengths to defend her. Unlike most examples, the two know each other personally and are best friends but Ota still puts her on a pedestal while she's Oblivious to Love and sees him like a big brother. | |

On I Love Lucy, Lucy has her string of this, particularly during The Hollywood arc, in which she can't help herself from acting even zanier than normal around the Movie Stars. Her actions include accidentally pieing William Holden, breaking into Cornel Wildes's suite, trying to pick a Grapefruit from Richard Widmark's backyard, and, with assistance from Ethel, stealing John Wayne's footprints from Graumen's Chinese Theater. Her reputation gets so bad, she becomes the ire of every actor in Hollywood. Eventually, it even reaches international levels as while in Paris, Charles Boyer mentions having heard of her. | |

After G'Kar's personal diary is published (without his permission, as he hadn't finished it yet) as a holy book, in the fifth season of Babylon 5, he is hailed by his people as a prophet, gaining a following in the hundreds of thousands. Hundreds (at a minimum) of Narns travel to the station to learn at his feet, to his utter horror. He ends up ordering the Narn who created the G'Kar religious statuettes (which he despised) to leave him be and go back home. Shortly before G'Kar leaves the station for good (to get away from his followers), Narn tries to shoot him and ends up wounding Garibaldi's fiancée by accident. | |

The Transformers: More than Meets the Eye: The Decepticon Justice Division is made up of the most fanatically devoted Cons this side of Cyberutopia, but their leader Tarn is a twofold example, as he's both obsessed with Decepticonism and Megatron. He wears a mask shaped like their logo, gave himself two arm-mounted fusion cannons and has a tank mode just like Megatron, quotes his writing at every possible juncture, and leads his crew in prayers before a statue of Megatron. Megatron brought him into the Decepticons to hurt Optimus, but by the time they meet up again, even Megatron thinks Tarn has gone way overboard. Tarn takes that... about as well as could be expected. | |

The plans fell through thanks to the Korean Armistice Agreement, but not before he got plastic surgery to look just like his idol and legally changed his name to Steve Rogers. When the second Red Skull emerged, he stepped out of the shadows along with a Bucky of his own but ultimately degenerated into a delusional racist who only thought he was doing good. | |
