Line 13:
* You can expect many ''[[Touhou]]'' fans to be ''[[Puella Magi Madoka Magica]]'' fans and vice versa. ''Especially'' if they cosplay.
* [[Fandom Rivalry|Rival fandoms]] who begin to see each other as [[Worthy Opponent|worthy opponents]] can develop into this over time. The modern-day rivalry between ''[[Mario]]'' and ''[[Sonic the Hedgehog]]'' seems to be developing into this, for example.

* With the advent of the new ''[[Doctor Who]]'', there seems to be a deliberate effort underway to unite ''Who'' fans and ''[[Star Trek]]'' fans. Besides little things like [[Patrick Stewart]] being a big ''Who'' fan and [[Freema Agyeman]] and [[John Barrowman]] being [[Deep Space Nine|Niners]], there's also Stewart and [[David Tennant]] appearing in an [[Old Vic]] production of ''[[Hamlet]]''.

To top it off, throw in the number of ''Trek'' actors who've would up on one or the other ''Gate'' series and it's almost impossible to see this fandoms as rivals.
** For a long time on [[Syfy]], ''[[The Next Generation]]'' and ''[[SG-1]]'' were both staple shows, sometimes airing within hours of each other.
* ''[[Star Trek]]'' and ''[[24]]'' fandoms got pretty cozy what with all the former (and sometimes current) ''Trek'' actors appearing in the show in big and large parts. The connection was especially strong with ''[[Star Trek:
