Dedue 12/31/20 11:56:20 PM #3:	Tag. Hopefully can catch up on those shows I'm behind on before the time is up. Just based on response, the only one I'm super worried about needing to finish out are Akudama Drive and maybe Talentless Nana. I bemoan the loss of negative categories as usual, but maybe for this year it's a good thing, lol. --- NMHMTYSM, ACASB <cite>Dedue posted [p:948976423] in Anime of t...

Mac Arrowny 01/01/21 12:02:51 AM #4:	What were the negative categories again? I only checked on the last couple years. Was it just "Worst anime of the year"? I feel like that one was a bit pointless since people here don't generally watch the real bad anime. Akudama is definitely one to finish! I liked the final episode a lot. --- All the stars in the sky are waiting for you. <cite>Mac Arrowny posted [p:948976623] in Anime of t...

Dedue 01/01/21 12:07:08 AM #6:	Just pulled up the charts and saw Bofuri in Winter. I can now no longer tell if 2020 was the shortest or longest year ever. I did pretty good in the middle of the year, but I never finished Id:Invaded or In/Specter. Anime starting with I followed by odd grammar fuck me up I guess. Oof, Yesterday. That show may have done well for itself if the last episode hadn't completely invalidated any of the show's good will. There's more going on than I remember, at least. --- NMHMTYSM, ACASB <cite>Dedue posted [p:948976743] in Anime of t...

pyresword 01/01/21 12:23:26 AM #8:	Don't expect I've watched nearly enough from this year to vote, but let's see. Watched 9 shows, 2 of which I absolutely didn't care about at all. Also another 2 to 3 from this season that I stopped after episode 1/2 that I still might pick up again. Don't really think that's enough, especially when the only thing out of those I really liked a lot was Heaven's Feel 3. I guess Haikyuu S4 also maybe. --- I didn't do guru this year but azuarc can be in my sig anyways. <cite>pyresword posted [p:948977248] in Anime of t...

LapisLazuli 01/05/21 2:57:58 AM #48:	Anime of the Year +8 Akudama Drive +5 SNAFU Climax +3 Eizouken +2 Kaguya +1 Talentless Nana This was super tough, and where I realized things were gonna get weird. A while back, Mac asked me if anything had a chance of taking out Re:Zero for the #1 spot, and I said likely no, but I hadnt thought on it at all. Now that I have thought on it, its not even making this list. Thats not to say it isnt excellent, I love it so far, but it hits two categories that I am very harshly against prioritizing in awards: seasons that arent done yet, and season that are neither the first nor the last season of a show. First seasons get that initial exposure (see the +1 to Nana, which I almost gave the +2 too before realizing that I was giving extra weight to having just caught up to the manga). Kaguya beats this by primarily being a comedy, every episode stands on its own as a goldmine. Re:Zero 2 is a single arc so far that hasnt been completed. I cant in good conscious get it into the top 5. My Life as a Villainous was here, until I reviewed it over and remembered a few episodes in the middle that didnt land. Best Male Character +8 Kento Nanami (Jujutsu Kaisen) +5 Hoodlum (Akudama Drive) +3 Kyouya Onodera (Talentless Nana) +2 Kaimen (Dorohedoro) +1 Kaburagi (Deca-Dence) definitely a strange list I ended up with here, but considering for the last several years I have struggled to actually reach 5 males, pretty satisfied with it. Best Female Character +8 Katarina Claes (Next Life as a Villaous) +5 Nana Hiiragi (Talentless Nana) +3 Echidna (Re:Zero) +2 Kanamori Sayaka (Eizouken) +1 Swindler (Akudama Drive) Putting together the list of female characters was absolutely effortless. They all came to mind immediately and there was no real risk of a cut. Putting them in order, significantly harder! --- https://i.imgtc.com/AutEY6V.jpg https://i.imgtc.com/lwKAU8M.jpg <cite>LapisLazuli posted [p:949119463] in Anime of t...

LapisLazuli 01/05/21 2:58:49 AM #49:	Best Drama +8 Akudama Drive +5 SNAFU Climax +3 Talentless Nana +2 Re:Zero +1 Tower of God Best Comedy +8 Eizouken +5 Kaguya +3 My Life as a Villainous +2 Bofuri +1 Wave, Listen to Me People always seem to have some issue with which category I put at least one show in. I think I gave up whenever season 1 came out and someone got onto me about putting Kaguyuya into comedy. Well guess what, still putting Kaguya under comedy. Im sure Ill get shit for Eizouken this year. Best Opening/Ending +8 Daddy! Daddy! Do! (Kaguya OP) +5 Easy Breezy (Eizouken OP) +3 Lost in Paradise (Jujutsu Kaisen ED) +2 Steal!! (Akudama Drive OP) +1 Shoujo no Route wa Hitotsu Janai! (Villainous OP) Links for all these in an earlier post. I feel like I mostly fell on on pus stuff here, but what can ya Daddy Daddy Do? Higurashi Gou OP was robbedby myself, because I cant help but compare it to the original 2 OPs. Most Anticipated Show +5 Zombieland Saga Revenge +3 SSSS Dynazenon +1 Made in Abyss S2 Had to take Otherside Picnic off since it already started. Godzilla: Singular Point is MIGHTY TEMPTING as a Studio Bones and Studio Orange collab, but Im just not a Godzilla guy, and I cant JUST put it on here for the studio. Luckily, Made in Abyss 2 was announced TODAY, so good thing I gave this some time. Fight of the Year I like hype fights, but actually voting for them in a category just doesnt work for me for whatever reason. I obstained last year, and unless Im hit by a sudden urge to represent I likely will this year as well. I think Thunderbolt Fantasy getting snubbed repeatedly burned me out. Best Couple +5 HachiYuki (SNAFU) +3 Shuichi/Claire (Gleipnir) +1 Brawler and Swindler (Akudama Drive) I am assuming two things: this is still loose as usual and doesnt have to be romantic (Kyoudai!), and that Bakarina x Everyone doesnt count. Wanted to include something from Nana here, but couldnt justify it being a valid entry. Best Cast +5 Akudama Drive +3 Kaguya +1 Eizouken Tough to hash out. I wanted consistency, but also knocked points for returning series. Best Visuals +5 Akudama Drive +3 Tower of God +1 Eizouken Not much to say on this one! Best Villain +5 ~~Rachel~~ (Tower of God) +3 ~~Echidna~~ (Re:Zero) +1 ~~Roswaal~~ (Re:Zero) Very odd year for villains. The ones in Jujutsu just arent grabbing me yet. The two I have from Re:Zero I am not even confident will count in the long run, I dont know because the season isnt over!
