5. hugtto precure
a weak ending cant change how good a lot of the middle episodes were
4. case files of el melloi ii
had that horny eyepatch girl
3. bang dream season 2
cg was hit or miss and it had some random side content that wentn owhere because it had to get every character in but tae's arc was really well done
2. symphogear xv
had some writing issues but the animation quality on display and the energy of it made up for it
1. granbelm
the action wasnt great and referencing the tomino shows people don't like isnt as clever as it thinks it is but the dialogue and characters are fantastic

quote:
W'z
I don't think I've seen a GoHands thing from this particular era of their stylistic "evolution" but ofc I did see the HandShakers memes. W'z is often garish and weird, they could only license/compose one DJ song for their DJ protagonist to play all season, and while the story is thankfully standalone for non-HS watchers like me, it's not particularly great or full of good characters. But this show and its stupid 3d camera, color filters, and frequently out of place CG are just so, so endearing to me. Nobody else is making anything that looks like this! I just get so entranced by it and for every three things that don't work you get something that does and it just makes me wish for more weird style choices to propagate across all anime, though I won't wish a GoHands virus on the industry as a whole. And again, a show with an OP that slaps.
whew. in retrospect i guess i would still say it was kind of a weak/bad year for me, and not a lot of my shows feel necessarily "good" by a more ~objective~ standard. but i had a good time watching them, and i guess those are the parts of this whole thing i will continue to value, even if it's probably weird when i can like admit a positive experience with W'z or Boogiepop and not have a lot to back it up.

I'm just gonna float out here in my comfy shounen zone.
Also, 5ch had Hi Score Girl top 2? What?
edit: also iunno if hi score girl 2 covered the ending but i wanted to say that the ending of hi score girl is absolutely incredible
they do the 'the girl is getting onto the plane that takes her away and the guy is rushing to make it before she leaves because hes had a last minute burst of courage, but what happens is that the spirit of guile from street fighter flash kicks the plane to cause wing damage that forces it to land almost immediately after taking off which buys the protagonist time to make it before she leaves
