| We need generic ecchi harems to fund the masterpieces |
| I've seen many people label Shouwa Genroku Rakugo Shinjuu as a modern classic. Personally, I've only seen the first two episodes and they honestly bored me to tears but I'm willing to give the series another try, especially given the second season's even warmer reception (it's ranked #19 on the site overall which is especially impressive given the series' relative obscurity). |

| New episodes of Hunter x Hunter are surely going to be masterpieces. |
| When the new episodes of gintama come out. |
| Anime just went to a shitshow recently. 2017 is an awful year. I don't think anime is going back to it's golden age. |

That type of series is rare.Even the first half of Death Note isn't brilliant. It was pretending to explore morality when it was just an elaborate chess game. I had fun with it and it's told well, but nothing too special. I guess because I find it very common in Western media I only found it to be good in its style, but nothing too special. I do like the more supernatural spin and it's different enough than Western thrillers, but not special enough to make it great. |

Kuraokani said: YuiHirasawachan said: Considering school days was the best anime ever made.. We need generic ecchi harems to fund the masterpieces I couldn't stomach School Days. The dialogue was so direct and without nuance, it felt like dialogue I would have written in primary school. Add to that the incredibly drab colour scheme and generic character designs... |

| I personally think there will come a time when shows like this will fade from the spotlight, and there will be other "masterpieces" that replace them, and you'll find people asking the same question about those, "Will something better than this ever come along?" At the end of the day you have to remember, behind every anime is a person with an idea, and over time people with better skill sets and better ideas will come along. All we're waiting for now is the next great writer to be discovered with an idea for a manga/anime that will blow away its predecessors. Now it might take a good few years, or even a few centuries for said person to appear, but hey thats life, its always worked like this and it always will. At least until the machines take over and start pumping out masterpieces in mass amounts, and eventually replace us humans with themselves. |

| Haven't you watched Kemono Friends? That's a true Masterpiece, indeed. Whoever says otherwise is wrong. |

| I wasn't fond of FMAB tbh and I actually dropped Death Note pretty early on because I got massively spoiled on practically everything that happened. It didn't sound great so I just gave up. So, I wouldn't personally call either of those anime masterpieces. To me, a masterpiece would be something that challenges the way I view anime, despite watching it for so long, or a series that utilizes tropes or knowledge of its target audience so well that is transcends any other anime of the same genre. When I think of defining a "masterpiece" by those standards, I think of Hunter x Hunter (2011) and JoJo's Bizarre Adventure. So the answer to that question is when JoJo Part 5 airs, and when the Dark Continent arc gets animated in another 30 years. As for the rest, I think maybe My Hero Academia has the chance to be something really special. There's nothing out right now that I can compare it to, and it has that old school Shounen vibe but still manages to be fresh and interesting...this is in the early stages too. I'm interested to see what it could be like in a few more years- if the manga keeps going and we get more anime seasons. There's great potential there but whether that'll be fulfilled is another kettle of fish. Tbh though, I feel like really amazing anime seem to pop out of nowhere, or are actually the Dark horses for a while. Just look at Gintama- it nearly got axed god knows how many times and the budget was low af to begin with. JoJo got worse before it got good, and HxH started small and was crafted into something else entirely right under our noses! I guess what I'm saying is that the good stuff takes time, so aside from sequels god knows what's around the corner- these things tend to creep up on you! |

| We already got one, it's called Keijo!!!!!!!! |
| when they adapt the Silver Soul Arc in Gintama, it will beat 2015 so at least rank2 in the top 10. |
| I can list a few potential candidates: Jojo Part 7 OPM S2 Steins;Gate 0 Pluto Violet Evergarden Mob Psycho S2 FLCL and LoGH remakes, under the hands of competent produces, may have the potential to attain masterpiece status as well. Code Geass S3, but there's also the possibility of it being panned for being a cheap cash-in. HxH: Dark Continent, but we'll have to wait a millenium to get there |
