The lack of early votes for Kemono Friends and the surprising lack of overlap with Land of the Lustrious votes has me thinking there is some recency bias, but I won't vote until I finish watching the latter.

70 voters so far, 1 show is the clear frontrunner, but all the rest of the rankings are still up for grabs. There are lots of invalid votes too. Please make a new post to make a correction if desired, as opposed to editing your original, tia.

Kytrarewn posted:Can you be more clear about this? Are you actively discarding any vote with an "edited" tag, or just not going back to recount votes if someone had edited his post (which would have been nigh impossible if you're just adding tickmarks to an excel sheet or something). I started checking votes on 12/29, and I'm not going back to check for edited posts. I will make a compilation post as voting closes indicating which individual votes were not counted. And as always I will post the entire spreadsheet so you can check your individual scores to make sure I interpreted your votes correctly. My raw data is somewhat timestamped, to make sure no one tries to cheat and add more votes, etc. Also all honorable mentions are being recorded just for curiosity, so they do affect the tally.

Also in general, if you used vote(s) on a movie feel free to add an "official" top 5 vote for something else instead if you want. None of the movies got enough votes to give it an exception, so they will be treated the same as unlisted/invalid series.

Ok, how about this: I will collect all the movies that got top5 votes along with their vote count just for reference, and if y'all think they got enough votes to matter I'll custom add them to the bottom of the valid shows list.

Like last time I've ranked all shows that I gave a 10/10 this year, with the top 5 being my votes: 1) March Comes In Like A Lion S1 - Bias is bias. The trials and tribulations of a semi-pro grinder and his interactions with his fellow competitors and the 1v1 game they all play strikes too close to home for me. Throw in some of the most heartfelt family relationships infused with brilliant character drama on top of a base not afraid to tackle the subjects of depression and self-esteem, all wrapped up in that value-added sleek Shaft style and we get the #1 show of 2017. 2) Kemono Friends - This is about to be a lot of words for the #2 show, but it truly deserves it. I had to contemplate this for a long time, but I finally figured out why Kemono Friends was so good, described by these 3 things that are core to anime:
This show made a real life actual penguin fall in love with an anime penguin waifu until the day it died. I still can't believe it when I think about it today, and the fact that it touched so many of our hearts that people still argue whether this waifu love was a good way for the old sick penguin to spend it's last days or whether the stress on being unable to woo her accelerated his death. Absolutely crazy. And it's not even done there! The controversy of creator vs producer was certainly something, with the unfortunate outcome of any season 2 on such a goldmine being tossed in the dumpster, a baffling conflict of pride and capitalism for the public to watch. Since we're pretty sure that what we got is probably all we're going to get, we can look back at the magic that took place all in 2017 that was Kemono Friends. Like if that all wasn't enough to be one of the best animes of the year for me then I don't know what the gently caress. 3) Girls' Last Tour - Once again, aesthetic is king, as the minimalist style mashes with the wideface blobs to create a brilliant juxtaposition in this neat chilling chillax thought experiment on human extinction. 4) Land of the Lustrous - "Yet another" post-apocalyptic introspection with "janky looking cgi", but this show delivers off the strength of its world-building, characters, and almost hilarious attention to mineralogy details. As someone who has attended multiple gem and mineral conventions, I'm surprised I didn't watch this show as it aired, but I guess the hype and marketing about it didn't catch for me. Additionally, the front-loaded exposition was as dry as an over-cooked turkey. But this show did some important science in the year 2017: we can talk all about characters and aesthetic and action scenes and such all we want, but ultimately the only thing that matters is anime hair. Because my God what a brilliant loving idea to leverage that jank 3D into absolutely stunning visual effects on each character's hair. I have a history with amethyst, having mined for them by hand at one point in my life, and the moment I saw Amethyst's hairstyle I knew I was ranking this show in my top 5, because seeing it for the first time immediately triggered complete thoughts and sensations of... well, amethyst. The hairstyle designs (in addition to all the character designs) are brilliant. And things just kept improving from there, as more animation (and plotlines) started becoming more fluid, to the point that I wondered if they created a customized physics engine just to produce this show. Package it together with top-class storyboarding, an incredibly effective blend of 2D and 3D, a well-deserved CGI grand prize, and a hilarious way to average 5.108 detached limbs per episode. Also it sucks that the genderless discussion and the pronoun discussion had to be constantly rehashed, it really saps the energy out of the series. Sometimes I just closed my eyes to the subtitles and listened to the Japanese words because holy poo poo @ everyone. Ironically, the above also made the show's exploration on what makes a human human even more interesting on yet another layer. 5) How to Raise a Boring Girlfriend .flat - Not trying to be a hipster for the sake of it, I swear! The ranking of this show surprised me too. This second installment builds off the first and delivers a fantastically juicy character drama with meta-comedy done the right way. The relationships were rich and complex, and the show never felt like it treated the viewer like they were an idiot, something that I value really highly. 6) Saga of Tanya the Evil - What an absolutely dumb premise, but wow was it executed almost flawlessly. Enough comedy when it needed to be funny (supplemented by the shorts after each episode), a pinch of philosophy edging the brink of edginess, mixed well with a good dose of batshit crazy military and magical antics to get the adrenaline rushing. 7) Kobayashi's Dragon Maid - Kyoto Animation does it again, taking above-average source material and turning it into gold. Obviously they had to compromise with the Lucoa stuff, but wow did they take care of business otherwise. Having both the OP and ED be so goddamn catchy was a sensory overload. Good gay dragon show. 8) Attack on Titan Season 2 - This followup season was very good, and I even liked it more than the first season (LOTS of the shounen bullshit and pacing were trimmed to much leaner levels). It's just too bad it came out like 2.5 years late after the hype died. 9) Sagrada Reset - Props to David Production for stepping out of their JoJo money-printing wheelhouse to try and produce this school mystery supernatural drama, and it worked. Using two inherently boring main characters without letting it be actually boring to watch was double the difficulty, make that quadruple with all the timeline/time travel antics. But SaeKano was just better imho. Honorable Mention: 12 series this year got a 9/10 from me; rather than point them out I'll give a mention to the only one that has not been mentioned so far: Cleanliness Boy! Aoyama-kun - A fun comedy about our soccer star who just wants things to be clean. It is baffling and amazing that they stretched this concept across 12 episodes and made it consistently funny throughout. Best movie: 1) Your Name - No explanation needed. Worth the theater ticket. 2) Kizumonogatari III - I'm no -monogatari fan, but this 3rd installment to this series was a brilliant spectacle. Everything good about the series is amped up to 11, and everything bad about the series is minimized or just not part of the movie. Good job Shaft, this was an incredible watch, with one of the most interesting and fun final battles I've ever seen. Remember this for this next year's vote: 1) March Comes in like a Lion S2 - obviously. But if they make Land of the Lustrous S2 or Made in Abyss S2 I will watch those shows weekly.

Josuke Higashikata posted:rules for an anime popularity contest that aren't actively being explained to the people voting and are only going to inform the people who have broken them long after they probably care to fix them with arbitrary disqualifications for movies or whatever actually I don't have to do poo poo, and I'm not informing anyone of anything new, I just happen to see which votes are invalid because I count them up, and am happy to do the extra work to give people a second chance to vote because it's always so close. Everyone is perfectly capable and allowed to vote for things that aren't on the list, it's just bad data, and I wouldn't be a statistician without knowing how to deal with it. And just to be clear, it wasn't arbitrary disqualifications, it was me asking all of you to reduce the amount of work I have to do, because now I have to validate every single one of your movie/ova votes (and figure out what you're even voting for in the first place since I don't know all the names and nicknames and japanese titles of all the movies) but now I'm doing that work anyways, so maybe just be happy about it or suggest some improvement.

I'm sure some of them would make it to my 'real' top 5 but these are my picks for shows I've finished. This has been mentioned a few times now, but it is totally ok and even desirable as it produces higher quality data without the baggage of anchoring effects.

Metadata: - 116 voters, 537 votes - 69 of the 205 different series got Top5 votes The Best Anime of 2017: 1. Land of the Lustrous - 42 Woooo yea ok we all saw that from a mile away, let's move on to the more interesting results: The Gauntlet: 2. KonoSuba 2 - 32 T-3. March Comes In Like A Lion S1 - 28 T-3. Little Witch Academia - 28 T-5. ACCA: 13 Territory Inspection Department - 27 T-5. Made in Abyss - 27 7. Girls' Last Tour - 26 What a bloodbath! But the KonoSuba faithful came through with a late push that cemented them in 2nd place. All of these places shifted through the last day of voting. The Special Mention: 8. Showa Genroku Rakugo Shinju: Sukeroku Futatabi-hen - 24 Just a little less voting oomph than the group above, but a solid showing for this second season. Just Made the Cut: 9. Recovery of an MMO Junkie - 22 10. My Hero Academia Season 2 - 21 The Snubs: 11. Kobayashi's Dragon Maid - 20 12. Princess Principal - 19 13. Kemono Friends - 18 This entire section of results also flip-flopped until the end, what a great year for anime. In other words: More Data: As always, spreadsheet is open to viewing: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Y8yxmgercB2wTKG09jE04-121Irs8ByuCgv8bMR3QQ0 - Full list of results are on the FinalScores sheet along with other metrics such as what the results would look like if we weighted votes. - Raw vote tallies are on the RawData sheet, i.e. how I interpreted all of your posts and words into numbers. - And the voting visualizations are again on in the AdvancedAnal sheet, for example: March Comes In Like A Lion S1 (Avg: 4.143) 11111111111111 2222222 3333 444 vs Land of the Lustrous (Avg: 3.860) 11111111111111111111 22222222 33333333 444 5555 vs Girls' Last Tour (Avg: 3.500) 11111 2222222222 3333333 4 555 vs KonoSuba 2 (Avg: 3.344) 1111111 22222222 33333333 4444444 55 etc.
