Welcome to the Best Animated Series tournament for 2024! This is a 128-entrant, single elimination tournament to determine Board 8's favorite animated show.

Here's the bracket:

https://www.bracketmaker.com/tmenu.cfm?tid=478702&tclass=

And here's the discussion topic:

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/boards/8-gamefaqs-contests/80794753

The rules are simple:

  1. Vote once per match. You may abstain from voting in any matches you like, or you can vote in all of today's matches, it's up to you.
  2. If you need to change your vote, please make a new post doing so rather than editing your original post.
  3. Feel free to try and make arguments (in topic, please don't campaign elsewhere) or convince others to vote for your favorites, just keep things civil and have fun.
  4. Voting will last EXACTLY 24 hours from the time this topic is made. Even if I make a new topic for the next day's matches, voting can still continue if 24 hours haven't passed in this topic.
  5. Tiebreaks will be conducted thusly: if two shows are tied after the first day of voting, a new day of voting will commence in the next day's topic. If those two shows tie a second time, another new day of voting will commence in the next day's topic. IF, after three full days of voting, the two shows are STILL tied, then we'll go to a sudden death, first to 5 votes wins format for the third and final day of tiebreaks.

It's tempting to linger in this moment, while every possibility still exists. But unless collapsed by an observer, they will never be more than possibilities.

Sadly, there are no second chances in the Guru, azuarc doesn't need one.

Congrats to azuarc on being really good at predicting stuff
avatar - but this is like a finals-worthy matchup?
yet all azuarc of all sorts are more or less capricious and unreliable - they live in the varying outer weather, and they inhale its fickleness

Historically, no, Attack on Titan has never made it past the third round. It's a lower midcard/midcard show at best, whereas Avatar is a perennial quarterfinalist/semifinalist, former champion, and IIRC holds the record for most overall #1 seeds.

yeah to be clear this is just among my personal favorite shows
