Quixotes_Solace said: Though whoever votes 2007 to be the worst year for anime the past 9 years needs to have their heads checked. (Unless of course they just watched the few bad anime that did air that year) I'll more surprised if it was 2006. Honey and Clover 2, Asatte no houkou, Black Lagoon, Ergo Proxy, Flag, Kanon, Nana, NHK, Paprika, Girl who leapt through time, Yomigaeru sora: rescue wings. Personal bias, but yeah, a lot of good shit in 2006 for me. |

| I think its more appropriate to ask 'the worst season'. I mean, every year good anime kinda balances out the bad anime and this year is no different. |
moonnya said: I want to know how people feel about anime after the art style change (2006-2007) I think this year is really bad, most of wellknown anime are sequels, and many anime have low budget. May be the aim of most anime this year is just for advertising the source (or idols) , not for money or viewers. Your thought ? Ping Pong automatically makes this the best year. |
| when was clannad as realeased? |
 |
| Probably 2011. |
 |
| MALgraph says it's 2014 for me, but FSN UBW came out of this year, so it actually the best by default. |
 |
| It's a tie, they all win. According to MALgraph its 2013 for me, shocking since I thought it'd be 2014 but I've haven't watched anything from the summer & fall that probably throws off the average. |
| According to MALGraph, 2012, with 2008 and 2009 not far behind According to my own excel, 2012, with 2013 and 2014 as runner ups, probably because i count all the shitty seasonals, but not the shitty music videos/shorts like MALGraph does That being said, i'd still put 2008 and 2009 as some of the worst (not the best as that poll implies), because of the relatively few well known anime from that year. |
 |
| We're going MALGraph According to it 2008 was the worse.........Considering Vampire CANCER and 00 Season 2 came out that year I ai'nt denying it |
 |
| Graph says 2014, but I haven't rated all the fall anime this year. The lowest after that is 2013 |
| I'm not a lolicon, you're just projecting your tendency to lewd 2D characters. If your favourite character is Tsutsukakushi Tsukiko, you are my soul mate. Been a long time since I've been here, I'll continue expressing myself freely and believe everyone should too. My MAL Interview |
| 2012. Because it was the birth of the most cancerous anti-fans there is. |
Aikareos said: None. I could care less about what year an anime was released. |
| 2012 and 2014 cant be it. Those are JoJo years. |
| 2006 and 2012 were two of the best years ever. Code Geass Death Note Higurashi Kanon Simoun Haruhi BRS Chuunibyou Fate/Zero Hyouka Kokoro Connect Wolf Children Psycho Pass Shinsekai Yori I'm saying 2010. The only excellent shows that year were Kuragehime and Ika, and neither of them is all that exceptional. Who cares what bad shows there are in a year? Just watch the good ones. |

| According to my MalGraph: 2009 |
 |
| 2005 according to my Malgraph apparently counting from 2006 onwards however as the poll does, then 2006 itself is by far my highest but everything since then is roughly the same |
  |
| 2012+ Anime is dying |
| -☾✩ |
| Dafuq is Malgraph? :( |
 |
| Seriously, who is voting for 2006 -2007? 2014 is pretty terrible with the high amounts of bad anime. |

LucasRTS said: Ping Pong The Animation, Mushishi Zoku Shou and F/SN UBW saved 2014 for me not enough too much shit in anime nowadays i swear only 2% of all anime are watchable now |
 |
| Wtf at people saying 2012 was a bad year. 2014 was indeed a bad one, not any memorable show so far. |
-Klad- said: Wtf at people saying 2012 was a bad year. 2014 was indeed a bad one, not any memorable show so far. ................. |
| I don't think I can pick one. My average rating according to MALGraph says it's 2013 but that average rating is just low for 2010+ years because I started watching seasonals at that point and have seen a much bigger % of shows from these years than from earlier years, so the average is bound to be lower. There's tons of great stuff from every year and picking random years to call them shitty is not gonna help anything or anyone. |
| I probably regret this post by now. |
| I can't think of any year I particularly disliked. |

-Klad- said: KokkoClaus said: Don't force people to like a year just because you like it................. The only anime from 2014 you've completed is Aldnoah Zero, so I don't think you're qualified to say that 2014 has been a bad year. |
| Malgraph said 2014 with an avg rating of 5.94 so Ill pick that. Its obviously because I have watched seasonals all year tough, I started in 2013 but there only in summer. |

| My Malgraph also says 2014's been the lowest but that might be because I'm watching majority of each season instead of just the ones I like. There's still a handful that are 8+ level. |
| Parasyte is pure gold so 2014 can't be the worst year by default. |
RinPriest said: Agafin said: Parasyte is pure gold so 2014 can't be the worst year by default. I was only going to check your anime list at first but than I saw this: Anime compatibility with Agafin is: Amazingly High 96.7 That's a first for me, complimentary "good taste bro" for you. for me too, amazingly high @_@ |

| According to MALgraph, 2014 by quite a bit. Almost all the other years have an average of 7+, but this year has an average of a mid 6. |
 |
| I dunno. |
 |
| From what I've seen: 2013. My top 3 anime were: Gin no Saji 1st season, Kill la Kill and SnK. Weak year! |
| lol Spring 2013 was also sad The highlights were: The most controversial anime of the year -> Aku no Hana lolmecha -> Valrape the Vibrator Valvrave the Liberator Hype x9000 -> Shingeki no Kyojin Incest -> OreImo 2 |
| 2010, extremely bland year. |
| According to MAL graph my worst year is 2012 (6.92). The only reason why it's so low I rated Shitcom a 1. Second is 2014 (6.94) - This was the first full year that I watched anime seasonally (I started seasonal watching somewhat in summer and fall in 2013) so I watched a lot shows, some not so great. I only watched a few shows from 2006-2009, so I can't say that those years were good or bad. |
PoeticJustice said: nigga i am black, do you think my ass would fit in? "Oh look it is negro kun." Hell no. |
| Looking at my stats, it seems that my lowest rated year in last 9 years is 2010 with average of 5.55 based on 179 completed anime. 2011 and 2012 are next with 5.63 and 5.67. Screen with stats on all years in spoiler tag |
