Not sure how Nisekoi is a flop.

Its very highly rated on MAL, has above average sales, and is generally seen as a huge improvement over the shitty manga.

I really hope we don't turn this thread into another of Nidhoggers expressions of his hipster lifestyle.

Didn't think Id see him go so hipster as to support madhouse based on shit from 10 years ago though.

The real crime here is that 50 votes in, Studio Deen still has more votes than Gainax and Ghibli.

I watch/read all of those. You are just a bit salty and use double standards. And while I like that SHAFT actually focusses on good franchises when they hit gold, their lack of ambitionous projects and new concepts is also a fault of the studio's management.
Not that Madhouse's management is any better by now...


Lmfao

Lack of Ambitious projects? Do you think you are writing an article for the New York Times here?

C'mon dude. Everyone here knows what we are. We are all weabs on a free website.

True.
However, stop using MAL ratings as a source of credibility to wank Nisekoi and then put down the entirety of ratings when it doesn't fit your standard and use ad hominem like me expressing my hipster lifestyle (with One Piece and Berserk in my faves lol). This is the double standard I mean. Anyway, we both know this argument will lead to nothing so why don't we just drop it here?

You realize the bolded section of your post is ad hominem based on shit from other threads right?

Right?

You call monogatari over rated because it's popular. That's what you do. Its your thing.

This poll is pretty dumb and unrealistically spread.

Madhouse is #1 because of NGNL and HxH.

UFOtable is #2 because people are convinced that an anime that hasnt even been made yet is going to be the best anime ever made based on a show that came out years ago with a different writer and director.

and then you have Kyo-Ani third, which I don't find surprising, given that they make pretty girls.

They are. But the source of the votes are the ridiculous popularity fate/stay night has on MAL right now.

I'm fairly certain it will be really good, but you just don't know until it airs.

Madhouse is #1 in this poll because of NGNL and Hunter x Hunter.

If this poll had been posted while the first SAO season was airing, A-1 would probably have 30 votes. Thats how hype works.

Best: UFOtable
-Kara no Kyoukai, their insanely talented animators, and their apparent hatred of censorship will keep it the best for a good while.

Favorite: BONES
-Soul Eater, FMA: Brotherhood, Chaika - The Coffin Princess, and Blast of Tempest; cmon, whats not to love?

Worst: A-1 Pictures
-Fairy Tail is literally a bloodless battle anime and Magi: The Labyrinth of Magic, was so altered, its damned ridiculous.
