| the true answer is that there is no best decade it just comes down to your personal opinion unfortunately which is the 80's-90's there's no other answer |
mmm yummy visuakl kei munch crunch munch chomp   |
| Personally, I prefer 2000s to 2010s. Anime in 2008 are especially my favourite such as Aria 3rd season, Spice And Wolf, Clannad AS, Toradora and ef 2nd season! |

| Do you think the 2010s is the best decade for anime? Yes absolutely Or is the 2020s already better and will eventually surpass the 2010s? Only for 12 year olds who twerk for tanjiro and ship him with nezuko instead of doing homeworks |
 |
| At this point it probably is. 2020s could definitely surpass it but we're not even halfway through it so it's way too early to say. |
| Yeah 2010's was when Attack on Titan was born, so it's the best decade |
 |
| The 2010s definitely weren't the best decade and the 2020s have been far worse so far. |
| Yeah. Best Decade for Anime: 1) 2010s 2) 2020s (too early anyways) 3) 1980s 4) 2000s 5) 1990s/1970s 6) 1960s |

| My ranking so far is 2000s > 90s > 2010s > 70s > 2020s > 80s so no. I also don't think it'll surpass the 2010s at this rate. |

SAO: isekai. Re Zero/Konosuba/DanMachi: weak hero. Goblin Slayer/Shield Hero: revenge hero. Mirai Nikki: yandere. Madoka Magica: more dark mahou shoujo. 3) Compared to previous decades, the style is more consistent from the start to the end of the decade especially if we compared to 2000s Anime which styles in Early 00s and Late 00s are completely different. 4) Fixed several things I disliked sometimes from the 2000s era and previous decades like too many episodes barely advancing the plot (more than 2 cours) and better trends as I mentioned (some trends I like more or less from the 00s for example are harem/ecchi by Late 90s/Early 00s Anime and some absurd/horror trends from Early 00s Anime, the moe trend isn't really interesting without supernatural elements and I can't stand some 00s Anime romance). 5) I was born in 2000 so my last childhood years and all my teens years were in the 2010s, so I'm biased to that era, especially early 2010s. Stuff I watched when I was quite young in the 2000s don't count since I didn't know they were Anime. I don't know if you felt the same since you and me are almost the same age. |

| I think it's too early to say for sure, but at the same time, I'm heavily biased and would absolutely say that the 2020's are the best decade for anime because of Stone Ocean alone. That said though, the 2010's are when literally all of my favorites started, so 2020's aside (since, as I already said, it's too early to judge), I definitely would say that the 2010's was the best decade for anime so far. |
| Best decade for me is around 2006~2016. |
 |
| Madoka is included, so yes, 2010 is the best decade for anime |

| this decade is equally good i think. we are still getting banger animes. there was no "bad" or "good" decade. both good and bad animes will keep releasing. people just like to think 2010s were better because it gives them a nostalgic feeling as that's when most people got into anime. |

| I think the 2010s were the best yeah, they had most if not all my favorite anime. |
 |
| "Is the 2010s the best decade for anime?" Yep, quite easily in my opinion. |
 |
| As good 2010s were for the anime 2020s are much better. Since anime has only gotten better and better over time I expect this trend to continue well into the future. |
  ❤ Incessant Rain ❤ “Can you let me have some fun this time?”  |
| I've seen 2010s anime the most, yeah I guess |
| Yea 2010s are the best I also think 1990s could be a good contender |
 |
| If we abstract from subjectivity and pretend to be objective, then it depends on different issues. The main difference is that studios are now giving the green light to many at least potentially good shows, which is why today's viewers have a much wider choice and access to a wide variety of anime than before. But as we all know, quantity does not mean quality. |
 |
| I would agree that the 2010s was the best decade for anime. However, I may be biased, as I am nostalgic for it, having grown up and gotten into anime in the 2010s. The 2020s are off to a mediocre start, but does seem to be starting to get a little bit better as of late. |
| Period from 2006 to 2012 was the best. It was improving until 2012 but then... |

| Nope, Its the 90s. 1. Thats when the Anime Started to broke through into west and slowly but surely pushed the industry to became a global thing. 2.Majority of the anime that shaped the industry, nfluened and evoluitonzed it came like Cowboy Bebop, Ghost In the Shell, Neon Genesis Evangelion. Perfect Blue, Sailor Moon, Hunter X Hnter, Yu Yu Hakusou, Serial Experiments Lain, Trigun.. 3. It was the rising decade of Dragon Ball Z and Pokemon which will end up became some of the biggest franchise in the world. 4. It was the rising decade of the directors like Hayao Miyazaki, Shiniciro Watanabe, Mamrou Oishi and Satoshi Kon. end of the day, which is the best decade is subjective but 90s was the most important and the influential decade for animes. |

| I am not one of those ppl who think 80-90s or even before this is best also 2010s is far from being best decade and personally I love 2000s most. |
| 2020's will probably be the best decade for anime. I'm almost 100% sure of it. The ultimate reason is because anime itself is at it's most popular, at least worldwide. If you think of it from a business perspective, the more a medium can sell, the more they invest. That makes the production better overall, and it makes more talented individuals seeing the anime industry as one to work in. More stories using anime as their storytelling medium will get multiple seasons as a result, and it will look better as well. When you look at the best anime of certain years of the past, usually they're certain stories that were given amazing treatment. Now, there are average stories with amazing treatment, as well as amazing stories with amazing treatment. Stuff like Code Geass and Cowboy Bebop are absolutely fantastic anime, but they didn't have to compete with much in there time compared to the current generation of anime. That's not to say that those anime couldn't compete with todays anime, because they absolutely can. The bottom line is that since anime has gotten more popular, the quality has gone up, and the amount of talent has invested more into it. |
| No, if I had to pick any individual single decade, I'd pick the 2000s decade, considering the fact that: 1.) Four of my top five series of all time, the top four, are all from the 2000s (2000, 2004, 2002, and 2006) and 2.) 2006, again if forced to choose, is probably the individual year I'd single out as the best for anime It also helps that the late 90s and early 2000s are also just the most both authentically nostalgic and retroactively nostalgic for me compared to any other period. Sometimes when watching, I love to imagine what I was doing at any given point in time when a particular series aired within this era, long before I knew about the existence of either it or the entirety of anime as a whole in actual life. |

| May be 2012 was the golden year. Animation already was good and scriptwriting still was good. |

| It is for me, I embrace modernity. 2020s might be better, it's too early to tell. |
| I don’t have the most educated response to this question, but I have a preference for watching newer things in all respects including anime so by the end of the 2020s I assume I’ll think of it as the best decade for anime, but I would give it to the 2010s right now |
| Each person have their own favorite decade. Usually it's a decade in which certain person were young. Not necessarily because animes were better back then, but simply because of nostalgic warm feelings felt towards them. Some might choose a different road and, in example, choose their favorite decade by picking up the one with dominant art style they feel was the best one ever, or by using other factors. As for me, I think the best anime decades were 1990s and 2010s. |
