\u2022\u00a0If you’re over your Spotify Wrapped, your Apple year-end playlist, are waiting impatiently for Letterboxd to send you your 2024-in-review email, and just want some stats to talk about in this weird half-old\/half-new week? AO3 users have your back. <\/p>\n
\u2022 This data table is user-created, and the user states they gathered the data manually and was only counting works published from January 1, 2024 through December 31, 2024. The user also makes a note to state how many of these worked are locked\/restricted so they are only able to be read by other AO3 users.<\/p>\n
\u2022 Yes, people are shipping James Potter and Regulus Black. The Marauders fandom continues to thrive on TikTok, which leads to other random crackships like Barty Crouch Jr.\/random named Death Eater, and two characters only mentioned in passing in canon (Marlene McKinnon\/Dorcas Meadows) all landing within the top 40 ships. <\/p>\n \u2022 Shows with no new seasons this year slipped down the list. The Good Omens<\/i> “Ineffable Husbands” pairing dropped down two spots from their previous number 1 position, the only Stranger Things<\/i> pairing on the list, Steve Harrington and Eddie Munson, slip all the way down to number 10 this year after landing at number 3 last year. Our Flag Means Death<\/i> ship Edward Teach\/Stede Bonnet drops an astonishing 18 spots from their number 10 showing last year. <\/p>\n \u2022 We’ve got new fandoms showing up for the first time, including pairings from Hazbin Hotel<\/i>, League of Legends<\/i>, Bridgerton<\/i>, Agatha All Along<\/i>, Deadpool vs Wolverine<\/i>, and Interview with The Vampire<\/i>.<\/p>\n \u2022 The most surprising jump? After one of its characters was confirmed to be queer in canon, 911<\/i>‘s premiere ship Buddie jumped eleven stops to number 2 on this list. That moment was enough to catapult two ships involving a 911<\/i> character in the top 15. Buck\/Tommy debuted at number 12.
\u2022\u00a0Thanks to TikTok Harry Potter<\/i> is still king of all fandoms. The fandom has 11 entries on the list, with the number 1 spot going to the Reumus Lupin\/Sirius Black pairing (up from landing at number 2 last year. Dramione and Drarry, always super popular non-canon pairings also land in the top 10, but surprisingly enough a new crackship enters the arena. <\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
surprised by the list? unsurprised by the overwhelming number of m\/m pairings or how long it takes for us to reach a pairing with a black character?<\/i>
