With October already here, the Summer 2014 anime season has now officially ended giving way to the new Autumn season. Japanese video streaming website Niconico Douga, which streamed some of the anime online, has ranked these Summer anime based on their viewer satisfaction ratings and have now released the final results. Here are the rankings: 37) Sengoku Basara Judge End 36) Glasslip 35) Dramatical Murder 34) Shounen Hollywood 33) M3 the Dark metal 32) Bakumatsu Rock 31) Tokyo ESP 30) Captain Earth 29) Rail Wars! 28) Argevollen 27) Blade Dance of Elementalers 26) Hamatora 25) Momo-kyun Sword 24) Persona 4 The Golden Animation 23) Ao Haru Ride 22) Free! 21) Black butler: Book of Circus 20) Terror in Resonance 19) Love Stage 18) Nobunaga Concerto 17) Space Dandy 16) Jinsei 15) Fate/ Kaleid Liner Prisma Illya 14) Majimoji Rurumo 13) Sword Art Online 12) Invaders of the Rokujyoma -!? 11) Psycho-pass 10) Hanayamata 9) Survival Game Club 8) The Irregular at Magic High School 7) Aldnoah.Zero 6) Tokyo Ghoul 5) Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure Stardust Crusaders 4) Locodol 3) Akame Ga Kill 2) Monthly Shoujo Nozaki-kun 1) Barakamon Based on viewer satisfaction, Barakamon becomes the Summer 2014 season’s most highly-rated anime as it gets an average 71.0% AA rating in Niconico’s viewer rating survey. The anime has been quite relaxing and refreshing to watch and is not your average slice of life show and that may be why it takes the top spot. The anime has beaten out several big names in the Niconico rankings including this season’s most highly-hyped anime, Sword Art Online II which only took 13th place and only had a 23.7% AA rating. I guess people are still divided on SAO. High School Comedy anime Monthly Shoujo Nozaki-kun meanwhile takes the unsurprising #2 spot as it continues to be one of the most highly-rated anime of Summer 2014 with a 60.6% AA rating, beating out fellow favorite Akame Ga Kill with its hilarious parody of shoujo anime characters. Akame Ga Kill meanwhile may not have received the high AA rating of the other two, however, it has made up for it with its great action sequences and interesting characters. Another surprising entrant is #4 ranked Locodol which takes on the world of local small town idols and their mascots. The anime is quite relaxing with a very laid back story just like Barakamon and proves that idol anime are now on the rise.

But it's important to remember that a movie review is subjective;it only gives you one person's opinion. http://www.classzone.com/books/lnetwork_gr08/page_build.cfm?content=analyz_media&ch=30 It doesn't matter if you like LoGH,Monster etc.If you are a jobless or college/school dropout living in your mom basement, you are still an unintelligent loser. Taste in anime does not make you a better person.If elitist don't exist, casual pleb and shit taste also don't exist. |
| Barakamon is the best anime this season, so it isn't a surprise. |
 |
| Nozaki #1 was way funnier than barakamon. |

| Akame ended up being better than Tokyo Ghoul and Terror in Resonance. |

| ^ Sabegebu's a comedy/parody that has shoujo in its genres but seems like more guys are into it lol Was Rokujouma actually good or was it just another generic harem? |

mayukachan said: It's aight, it looks like a generic harem comedy and it has its fair share of cliche's but it was still a fun watch. Yurika is the only character of note in the show, she's awesome enough to make my favorites.^ Sabegebu's a comedy/parody that has shoujo in its genres but seems like more guys are into it lol Was Rokujouma actually good or was it just another generic harem? |
| Glasslip is too high. It doesn't even deserve to be on this list. |
| MAL: A community that thinks every anime is bad, but rates everything a 7/10. |
nucleon said: Even Mahouka is comedy after a certain point as everyone began to act like the sister, praising the superman brother and watch him performing like an angel and strategic weapon. LOL! |

| 37) Sengoku Basara Judge End There goes any credibility. |
| I probably regret this post by now. |
skudoops said: Nozaki really should be number one, then akame and jojo. Barakamon was pretty inconsistent with the comedy if you ask me. people watch Barakamon not because of the comedy, they want to find the peaceful and relaxing and fresh air. Same with why people watch Gochuumon, without the moe part |
| I can't believe Akame ga Kill is this high. Japan always proving to have shit taste over and over again. |
| Is akame ga kill really that good? I find it to be okay. Haven't seen Barakamon but this is motivating me to watch it now. |
| This season sucked. I haven't watched Barakamon. Ao Haru Ride was like Kimi ni Todoke watered down, Sword Art Online II is just as terrible as the Light Novel was, and will continue to be more forgettable once we get back to and . Tokyo Ghoul had moments of clarity but mostly felt like a pathetic battle shounen with quasi-zombies trying to be edgy. Tokyo ESP is basically an X-Men rehash with the story written for pre-teens in Japan, with decent graphics but nothing particularly else standing out. Akame Ga Kill is basically a high school battle shounen, but replace high school with assassin's base and you've got the same picture, with slightly less regard for censorship than average. Aldonoah Zero was probably the best of the season, but with annoying amounts of deus-ex machina , with mostly characters who weren't believable and the battle scenes were very formulaic; though the effects were nice. I say it was the best of the season because they hit emotional tones slightly well, the backdrop was interesting and the animation was fairly good. Otherwise I wouldn't gush about the "princess of peace turned into a realist" or "drunk who seeks redemption" as particularly amazing sequences. |
| How do people get to 2000 hours when I'm already this bored? |
Ryugen said: Is akame ga kill really that good? I find it to be okay. Haven't seen Barakamon but this is motivating me to watch it now. Akame ga Kill is terrible. The directing for it / animation / action sequences are complete ass. And it's just the author trying to make the bad guys super reprehensible so there's a clear line of good vs evil but it's not written in a remotely fun, or even interesting way. "This person is BAAAAAAAAD s/he TORTURES people and KILLSSSSSSSSSSSSSS them for really stupid reasons & or for fun!!! Can't wait until s/he dies! jk <3 u esdeath even tho u buried alive 400,000 people". Barakamon had inconsistent comedy & some eps were flat out bad. Nozaki #1. It had flaws in comedy timing & forcing the characters into a role immediately, but it still maintained good quality was funny in each episode. In reality AkG is just a social experiment to see if being hot & having large tits will allow the male population to forgive a ruthless murderer who has caused insane amounts of suffering. |

| Zankyou is pretty low. I dont find Akame ga kill amazing, the first ep made my expectations very high, but it went downhill after that. Agree with dramatical murder, mahouka and rail wars. |
 |
| Well I definitely agree with number 1. 4 of the 7 shows I watched in Summer were in the Top 10 so I guess I chose good shows. :D |
| I agree with 1 & 2, those were the ones that I enjoyed the most this summer. Though I'm surprised with how well Tokyo Ghoul rated, since it was my biggest disappointment for the season. Not surprised about Glasslip . . . I watched the first episode and had to drop it, it was just really strange; in a bad way, there is good strange. |
 |
| > hanayamata and locodol that high > free! that low okay then |
 |
| Locodol #4 ? :o |
  |
| It's not surprising if Barakamon got the highest , but Locodol ? I also agreed about Sword Art Online II |

Aldnoah.Zero #7 . Fair enough. I guess even some of Japan knows what went down. |
| Lots of Akame Ga Kill hate in here, which is funny because its actually one of the more enjoyable shows to air this season. |
Feaor said: EXACTLY!!Lots of Akame Ga Kill hate in here, which is funny because its actually one of the more enjoyable shows to air this season. |
 |
| I wonder how many of those questioning Locodol actually watched it :p It's surprisingly good and relaxing you know, especially if you watch it after more action-oriented shows (marathon not recommended). I do think the rank's a bit too high though. Gekkan Shoujo Nozaki-kun at #2, I have it on #1 with Barakamon on #2. |
"May those who accept their fate be granted happiness." "May those who defy their fate be granted glory." |
| Japan has pleb taste putting Space Dandy so low, it deserves to be higher. |
skudoops said: Feaor said: Lots of Akame Ga Kill hate in here, which is funny because its actually one of the more enjoyable shows to air this season. People just hate it because it was hyped up. JoJo and Akame literally have the same things.. Both battle shounen Both having ridiculous villains Both having moments of comedy although JoJo > Akame by far in this department Both having large amounts of gore and fucked up scenes One gets hate and the other doesn't.. I wonder why. because jojo is manly and fabulous |
| Akame ga kill ahead of Jojo, Space dandy and Nobunaga Concerto? ughh |
