One-Punch Man
A crazy fun action-comedy anime with tons of amazing animation. A serious punch.

Hibike! Euphonium
Beautifully animated character-driven story, got fun comedy and good drama. Also, it's kinda hot.

Shirobako
Good writing, good art, good animation, good insight into the animation industry, it's better than Jiggly Heaven.

Ore Monogatari!!
It's the cutest story that ever opened with a molester getting punched in the face.

Gatchaman Crowds: Insight
It's got pretty much all the stuff that made the first season good, but tackles even more interesting stuff in even more interesting ways. Plus, the art is still great.


Honorable Mentions:
Punch Line

I wasn't a big fan of how it ended and it had some rough spots in the first few episodes, but four episodes in this show gets ridiculously fun and stays that way for the rest of the series.

Himouto! Umaru-chan
Cute comedy, with several choices of best girl. Unfortunately, it loses out on being the best comedy to Osomatsu-san, which lost out to being in the top five to five other shows that had lots of good comedy, and gooder other things.

Osomatsu-san
SHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEH!!

I got some time off for the holidays so I went to check out one of the other popular choices, the Euphonium anime. :froggonk: Sorry, I can't do it, I'm allergic to this kind of stuff. And I even watched all of Haruhi. Maybe next year!

wait, what. what are you allergic to. i don't understand what you are saying

you could just say "i don't like this anime" instead

ninja slayer wasn't really inferno cop 2. it was a mix of inferno cop and, gently caress, i don't even know it changed what it was doing so many times but the ninja girl was cute and so was nancy

like some episodes of ninja slayer were serious character drama played totally straight and i actually really liked some of those ones. then one of them was the episode about the crab ninja, and the scientist who then grafted the dead crab ninja's hand to his arm. and pretty much the entire episode was bondage fanservice, and not really any other episode quite approached that

i dunno i like ninja slayer for what it is, when it was fun it was really cool and fun, but there were also times where i would not blame someone for not really liking it at all

actually i never really finished watching it. maybe i should, i want to see if the cute ninja girl turns good again. if she doesn't, gently caress that, it's poo poo!!!

Not that I would have put it in my 2013 Top 5 anyways, but IIRC Gatchaman Crowds lost a bunch of votes due solely to Utsutsu's costume design.

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.

Actually Ping-Pong did it

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.

Actually, it's just good

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
