Anime Relations: Ping Pong the Animation
2014 was not a impressed year for Anime. But i have put together a list of the few good bites of this year.

10. Nisekoi
I think people don't like this because they set their expectations too high. it will make you laugh but its not as good as Sayonara, Zetsubou-Sensei.

9. Daimidaler the Sound Robot
The anime is just awesome. There isn't really a lot to say the anime is just awesome.

8. Nanana's Buried Treasure
Without wanting to spoil too much about the anime, I will say that Nanana's Buried Treasure is a tense, interesting, suspenseful anime that tells an engaging and well executed story.

7. Chaika - The Coffin Princess
I found this anime as, if not, more exiting than the manga. There are a couple things Bones couldn't done to make the anime better, such as gone more into the story at the beginning.

6. Haikyū!!
Go and see it. It's one of the best comedies of the year and a lot funnier than it should be given the flimsy premise.

5. Terra Formars
Amazing anime filled with great atmosphere, most hard production, and also great soundtrack.

4. Mushi-Shi -Next Passage- and JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Stardust Crusaders
Yeah i are cheating here with putting two anime instead of one. But this is my list so i can do whatever i want with it. Also they a both two amazing sequel to two amazing anime series. How could i not put these two together? Mushi is a more relaxing and hypnotic anime when JoJo is just pure fucking fun.

3. The Tale of the Princess Kaguya
Ok this movie did come out in 2013 but it did not get released outside Japan before 2014. Also many movie critics do put this on their best of the year list so why can't i put it on best anime of the year list? Pretty much the most beautiful looking Ghibli movie i have ever seen.

2. Parasyte
This is by far the best horror or thriller anime I may have ever seen. It does not use fake jump scares, or loud noises to scare you.

1. Ping Pong the Animation
This was one of those anime that I really had to force myself to watch and ended up loving.It's a story more about the nature of friendship than the actual sport of ping pong. There are a few laugh out loud moments, although some of the humor requires a knowledge of Japan. While I should have found the ending schmaltzy, I actually found it quite touching. I have no hesitation in recommending this anime to anyone.

Lets hope that 2015 will be better so i can make a top 20 of the year.
