Support NeoGAF

It's pretty bonkers all right. Heck, Fate/Zero isn't even a finished show!

That's probably the only reason why it isn't #1!

 

[Hellsing321]

I didn't get around to watching Wandering Son, I am part of the problem .

How do you intend to make amends for this failure?

Glass Fleet tried to light the way, but no one took up the torch afterwards for some reason.

MPD and Madoka over Steins is a sin that GAF, as a collective, should be ashamed of, but to have Working'!! chart shows justice. Great thread, articalys.

Can't believe Fate/Zero beat Wandering Son. Wtf.

People who liked more serious drama-type shows had more

(and better)

shows to split their votes across.

It must be nice to set high goals like wanting the ordering to be a specific way. I'm still holding out for at least one other person to watch Lupin III: Blood Seal - Eternal Mermaid.

All I know is that this list is a lot classier than the Game of the Year thread.

Is it really? Usagi Drop and Wandering Son are the only titles in the Top10 which are remotely arty. The rest are all totally safe choices from established directors or franchises, and the anime of the year is also the best selling anime in 2011. Clearly mainstream!

Ano Hana would have won had it been really mainstream. How the fuck that is getting lauded everywhere else is beyond me.

Saved my Chihaya vote for 2012.

You voted for Denpa Onna, and that bland show is certainly the inferior Shaft anime of 2011.

Damn straight. Never trust a DenpaBro.

Because anime "journalism" is a bad joke.

Is Steins;Gate streaming anywhere online? It sounds entertaining.

 

[sleepykyo]

It's honestly depressing that people think like this. Stop being insecure in your own masculinity and go watch Wandering Son, bro.

It's honestly depressing that he listed those 3 as some sort of benchmark. I liked Durarara and all, but I'm still used the idea of GitS and Cowboy Bebop being benchmarks.

e: oh, damn. "STEINS; GATE has been removed due to licensing restrictions. Thanks for watching and for your understanding. "

Is it worse than video game journalism?

 

[Dresden]

It's somewhere below sports journalism, on par with videogame journalism. I guess you could say it's foxesque.

 

[Kisaya]

Ahh, outta that whole list I only watched Usagi Drop loool. QQ @ my other favorites not making the list hahaha
All good though, interesting line up ;p I still have to finish Penguindrum lol

 

[Jex]

Is it worse than video game journalism?

Yes, of course it is. Which is really saying something.

There's one coming by Leiji Matsumoto soon!

Compare Angel Beats to any GOTY pick ever.

In other words, yes.

AnimeGAF is worse than Gaming Side confirmed.

 

[Branduil]

It makes video game journalism look like... uh, what kind of journalism isn't a joke nowadays?

Yeah Funimation is going to be doing the disc release so Crunchyroll lost the streaming rights to it. I assume Funi will be streaming it too at some point.

2011 was another terrbile year for anime but best since 2007.

top 10 theres some awful stuff in the top 10 like anohana, penguin drum and iroha.

When he returns home for his grandfather's funeral, thirty-year-old Daikichi is floored to discover that the old man had an illegitimate child with a younger lover. The rest of his family is equally shocked and embarrassed by this surprise development, and not one of them wants anything to do with the silent little girl, Rin Kaga. Sensing her imminent abandonment and in a fit of angry spontaneity, Daikichi decides to take her in himself. As Daikichi raises Rin, he starts to understand the struggles -- and the joys -- of parenting.

Gaf should never be allowed to adopt kids, the FBI is on to you guys.

 

[BGBW]

THE IDOLM@STER didn't make the Top 10. I declare this list to be entirely invalid.

Should have had OPs of the year which iDOLM@STER would have won easily.

Unfortunately for Ben-To, it didn't end after episode 6.

This is why I didn't vote for it. I liked the concept but then the plot just went too serious for its own good.

 

[sonikokaruto]

wish i had know about tiger and bunny, would have voted

 

[TheKaeptain]

2012 is going to be the best year for anime.
