No one picked it up for streaming at the point where that had just become the death knell for popularity.

I don't even remember hearing about YQ that year, and not much since until the chat thread loved it. I'll go ahead and say it here, though, in 2016, in the Best Anime of 2015 thread: Yozakura Quartet was one of the best animes of 2013.

We had a thread for it where everyone conspicuously and deliberately ignored the crazy amount of fanservice, just in case.

yeah, i would expect a YQ thread back then to go about as well as the Zvezda one. though i also feel like the first "arc" of YQ is kinda meh, and it's why i dropped it 5 or 6 episodes in the first time.

Considering that Kyousogiga is one of my top 10 of all time, that kinda pissed me off.

Also this.

I certainly enjoyed Part-Timer and I think it was on my top 5 list, but in a year with the above two shows in it Part-Timer had no business being at the top of the list.

As the OP for the incredibly white noise YZQ thread, I'm super glad no one posted about the fanservice in it, because as I remember the Zorak days, your options were to just pretend it doesn't exist or loudly post about how Actually This Is Bad Because Tity

For next year everyone should be encouraged to list all the shows they enjoyed as honorable mentions.
Yeah if I knew there was gonna be extensive data analysis I would've found the time to weight my shows and create an honorable mentions list.

As it is, good to know for next year.

KLK pretty much saved anime and is the only reason I was able to watch masterpieces like OPM this season.

Anime would have died without KLK.

Looking on while my roommate watched the first episode of Kill La Kill is why I got back into anime. This is good and bad I guess.

Maybe he should have put less effort into playing ping pong and more effort into animating Ping Pong.

That would require his arms to literally rip themselves off his body from compound stress.

It had its moments but I don't really feel like rewatching it and taken as a whole I would struggle to rate it anything more than "really uneven."

fanservice is cool & good if it's just fanservice but kill la kill has this really weird complex about its fanservice where a lot of it just winds up feeling weird and skeevy

my opinion on kill la kill: i really like the first half. i really don't like some parts in the second half. the action scenes were cool

a lot of people hate imaishi but i don't mind him, kill la kill though was not one of his more fun shows

I'd have liked it a whole lot more if it was just crazy fun poo poo like the No Late Day, or the Osaka guy or whatever. No big plot stuff.

A lot more like panty and stocking basically.
