The Something Awful Forums > The Finer Arts > VEGETA > The Best Kyoto Animation Series of all time - VOTE

AnacondaHL: Feb 15, 2009; I'm the lead trumpet player, playing loud and high is all I know how to do.

Kyoto Animation Co., Ltd. (株式会社京都アニメーション, Kabushiki-gaisha, Kyōto Animēshon), abbreviated KyoAni (京アニ), is a Japanese animation studio located in Uji, Kyoto Prefecture, Japan. It was established in 1981 and as of 2015, Kyoto Animation has headed production for 21 anime series.

Vote for which of these series you think is the best!

Voting rules:

Choose up to 10 series from the list below. You may vote for less than 10.
RANK THE SERIES. If you do not rank them, I will assume the order listed will be the rank, regardless of your post content.
Scores will be weighted by rank using the BBWAA MLB MVP voting scheme: 14 points for first, then 9 to 1 points for 2nd to 10th.
You may skip votes (such as voting for a top 3, then voting for a 6-8, etc.)
Putting the series names in b tags would be appreciated!
You can write a small blurb or whatever about why you ranked your titles, or just list them.
In general sequels have been combined to form 1 series. If there's an exception, or if you'd like to just vote for one of the seasons, please specify.
Do not bitch at or attack other people's votes _{(in this thread)}
Optional: Add one -1st place vote for the series that you personally hate or can't stand that it's popular for some inconceivable reason and would want points deducted from that series' score. I'll consider factoring this into the final tally.

Copy-Paste this for your post!

2) (2009) K-On! + (2010) K-On!!
3) (2015) Sound! Euphonium

1) Hyouka - This KyoAni show is the best because it has actual characters, a fun plot and a nice story.
2) Sound! Euphonium - Good too
3) Nichijou - Funny
4) Tamako Market - Ok, for me that's where all the "actually mediocre but hey it's KyoAni so it's visually interesting" stuff starts.

I'm not gonna -1 stuff cause lets be honest even at it's most saccharine or predictable or just disappointing kyoani is never actually bad, as far as I know. I'll be irl pissed and throw a tantrum and have to be medicated if K-On wins though,

1) The Second Raid because it's the only one I actually watched in it's entirety
2) Lucky Star had funny bits right before the credits ran, usually. I mostly skipped to those parts.
3) Haruhi was great but then they made more of it and it was terrible. I only watched all of the first part. I gave up on the rest after the second episode of Endless Eight.
4) Nichijou is not as good as that other Nichijou show but has really charming animation. I've watched bits of this on on Youtube.

anyone who thinks this, you better at least watch the fuckin movie cause jesus christ, you're only hurting yourself. literally 100% of people who watch it agree it's the best anime movie of the decade so far, and at the very least you're depriving yourself of experiencing kyoani at their visual apex
