Not going to write out why since there have already been four pages of why these shows are good and cool. In no particular order:
Fate/Stay Night: Unlimited Blade Works
One-Punch Man
Owarimonogatari
Jojo's Bizarre Adventure: Stardust Crusaders: Egypt Arc
Shriobako


Honestly, I spent much of the year watching poo poo I missed from previous years like Hunter x Hunter and Devil is a Part-Timer. (And I"m going to have even less time to catch up on poo poo starting next month. :smith: )

Edit: Honorable mention to part 3 of Code Geass: Akito the Exiled since more Lelouche is never a bad thing. Can't wait for part 4 to come out on BD.

Edit2: Oh snap! Didn't even realize they were going for 2 in one year.

lol, "the protagonist is a girl" isn't a genre

Nope. But moe-centric poo poo is...well, poo poo.

There, I said it. :colbert:

I probably wouldn't have given Madoka a second thought if episode 3 didn't end the way it did. And I probably wouldn't have gotten past the first episode of Shirobako if it was just K-On! with anime instead of music.

K-On! failed the 3 episode test for me.

You may now bask in your hatred of me. :unsmigghh:

Still, I'm very curious what else the show would have to say about the uglier sides of the industry... We've seen enough to know they are painfully aware of it, and once the protagonists move up in the hierarchy, we're bound to see more issues crop up. I hope more Shirobako happens, seems likely enough.

You kind of see that during the meeting where they're selecting the voice actors. Fourteen hours to choose VAs for 6 characters, and you have the secondary market reps basically acting like caricatures of single-minded hacks pushing their own brand/sector.

I should really check out the fafner sequels eventually, I didn't hate the 1st series.

Is that a sequel? Or a remake? Last thing I saw of it was the OVA that came out like 5-7 years ago or something like that. I didn't even know they had a Fafner anime out this year until I saw the countdown lists, and I'm in kind of the same boat as you.

Kill La Kill was an incredibly dumb show I enjoyed watching most of the time.
