Funnily enough I have liked each of these I've seen. Except for the ending to Planetes, which I like to pretend didn't happen.

Threw the scores from the current version of the spreadsheet into a principle components analysis:



The red arrows are shows, with long arrows being the especially popular ones that aren't predicted by liking other shows. Roughly speaking, if you're aligned to particular shows you liked them, and arrows that are close to each other represents shows that if you liked one, you probably liked the other. If you are close to someone on this chart you have similar tastes. If you are miles from everyone you're strange.

Unfortunately I don't necessarily believe in the scores right now. For me at least it's put me in the wrong way round.... OTOH I can believe that there's the quadrant of yuri (on and off the Ice to the top left, and I am solidly in it...)

This chart below is just with whether people top-5ed a show or not



i like how that second one has me literally right along the Re:Zero line when I never even watched that hahah

That means based on what you do like, there is a high probability that you will love Re:Zero.

Unfortunately, that requires opening the conversation with "So, I spend hours each week watching Japanese cartoons- you?" which inevitably leads to the response "Oh, you mean the thing with all those tentacles?"

Nope- national secret here, too.

One of the co-workers at my last job kept trying to get me to watch Akame GA Kill because "it's like anime Game of Thrones" once he found out I watched anime. It's a big risk to take

Also...they're holding off on the Best Anime award for some dumb reason.

E: drat that's a lot of voters
