1) Shirobako
2) Ore Monogatari!!
3) Hibike! Euphonium

5) Maria the Virgin Witch

Other near top-5's:

Shimoneta
Prison School
JoJo Egypt Arc
Gatchaman CROWDS Insight
Gundam Reconguista in G

kinda regret dropping off on a bunch of shows this year, since they'd probably be good contenders/i'm seeing them on other posters' lists.

To be fair, the beginning part with do-do-donuts almost turned me off of Shirobako, too.

i dunno, it seems kinda cynical to swear off high school/high school girls in anime. i mean the Shirobako intro wasn't great because it was like...amateur anime production, and i'm glad it transcended to something more dramatic/heartwarming and with higher stakes. the doughnut chant is awesome though, as are doughnuts.

it was going fine until everyone jumped down that guys throat for daring to not like a popular anime

i mean, if his reason was presented as something other than "i quit watching the show because it was about high school girls," i'd agree. but in general that's a weirdly cynical stance to take, especially when Eupho isn't actually some sort of pandering moe thing.

but i think that thread of discussion has gone as far as it can.

romance isn't the only point of the show, anyway. it's just as much a competitive club show...just with music instead of sports.

i'm a big fan of the "Shirobako movie, about making an anime movie" idea somebody posted

Judging from some doujins I've caught sight of, it sold well to a different crowd.

the anime original stuff in BBB would've been better without Black/Blank as he was, because White was super likable and i enjoyed her addition/scenes with Leo.

i voted for OPM as a non-normie, and i'm glad the true AOTY won at least in weighted votes

Top 3 No Normies Allowed (Any vote for Shirobaka, OPM, JoJo disqualifies)

1. SNAFU S2
3. Owarimonogatari
3. Symphogear GX

Somehow this isn't surprising.

I also checked with just Shirobako/OPM banned and it is *alot* more normie.

1. Jojo
2. SNAFU S2
3. Fate/Stay
4. Euphonium
5. Parasyte
6. Owarimonogatari
7. Symphogear
8. My Love Story
9. Food Wars

This was 20 people in total. There were 5 people that didn't vote for a single top 10 winner.

Shirobako isn't a normie show, but cool nonetheless

MaoucDonalds was great but not better than Kyousougiga.

but it was more popular, and without weighted lists that's what matters :shrug:

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.
