I think BA and Genshin fanart are good examples of genuine love for a series vs just making art for a series because it’s popular. I’ve seen more artists who are genuine fans of BA than I have for Genshin. That being I’ve seen more artists post their progression in BA than I have for Genshin, and actually talk about the world BA aside from just how the characters look.
There is no better example of this than Sakimichan. She drew tons of Genshin fanart for years now, by comparison she’s basically only drawn two pics of BA, those being for the bunny suit versions of Karin and Asuna back in 2021. By basically I mean there are slight variations of those two pics, beyond that she hasn’t drawn a BA character since.
Of course there are some artists who are genuine fans of Genshin and there are artists who draw BA just because it’s popular, but their opposites greatly outnumber them.
