Amazed to see Kill la Kill on a lot of these considering how atrocious it is. Mako number 9 on best female character? Joke vote? Got to be.

Glad to see great series like SAOII, Mahouka, Arpeggio, Free! and JoJo represented though. Agree with Asuna on the female character list, still ahead of Sinon and Mother's Rosario will only elevate her higher.


what. Dude, you're just asking for trouble with that line. I can't really take this post seriously.

What's wrong with Free?


Watching it makes Mr feel uncomfortable. Although that's just me. I do know a lot of people rip on it for essentially just being a reverse gender fanservice show. I haven't seen the new one yet though.

I'm kinda of surprised that they didn't have seperate sections for comedy, action and so forth. Clumping shows and films together like that doesn't do them justice.

I'm really surprised that Arpeggio of Blue Steel made it up so high on the list. I like the franchise, more so the Manga than the anime. I didn't think it would stick in the minds of the voters for so long.

I find it curious that they put in recent airing shows like SOL II that been barely airing for a month. Some of the show they listed were as far back as January, but to include ones within month is odd to me. Not i don't like Sword, it looking to be a compelling story, but it hasn't finished airing is kinda of disservice i would think.

It sold more than KLK, even though it would seem like KLK sold 25,000 units given how people never shut the hell up about it.

I for one, loved how high Kill la Kill scored. But this topic like many others in the same vein, all devolve into, "I can't believe it scored so high, so lets trash the award or poll. It is no different than the Oscars, with all its fans and all its detractors.

That or they just trash the shows themselves. It really eats some people up inside knowing that a majority of fans like something they don't. Why that is I do not know.
