The US chose Re:Zero? Well, my country has never ceased to disappoint me in 2016.


It could have been worse though, altho I do like the series but it's nowhere my favorite of the entire year, maybe Top 10 or so but not #1.

Once again, Active Raid randomly pop-up in a list of animes in 2016, wtf ?


Isn't it just one country? Or I may be wrong a bit... still.
I guess S2 was much better imo but its still surprising that it got voted in there so.
Yeah, i know its just 1 country but i dont know how but every time we see stuff about top animes of the year, theres active raid randomly popping up somewhere in a good spot like being in the top 20 of the most interesting animes of the year from that Niconico survey or the Tokyo Anime Award beating stuff like Jojo's Bizarre adventure, Drifters, Hibike Euphonium S2 and etc.
Its just weird. Didnt know Japan liked it that much. xD

I didn't even actually knew about the NicoNico thing and the Tokyo Anime Award and such. Damn I might have missed much about it xD But it's weird but at the same time, interesting xP

So, ANN also released their poll results for most popular anime this year for those who are interested. Don't really have a good idea of what kind of demographic voted there. But the top seems reasonable.

It's better to not watch something if it doesn't grab you. The only one of the "Top" shows I can suggest is Re:Zero and maybe Yuri on Ice with fine print of(It's not a masterpiece and it's just decent/good).

Anyway...if I was really being honest there really is not top show of the year since while I found some shows great. This year was very mediocre.

Not one real season was good.
I haven't updated in years but now I have changed that. I'll be free soon.

I would agree that Rem wasn't a waifu bait if her characterization (an only interesting characterization of the how) was forgotten in the 3rd arc, you know... like her tragic past where she is supposed to have a bit of a inferiority complex and the fact that she was supposed to hate the scent of the witch and those that smelled of it but instead she became Subaru's sex slave.

Subaru is basically a god with his return by death.
LOL!!! Well he ain't winning any fights and needs people to fight for him.
> Unkillable
> Time travel
> Could say more but don't want to spoil after the anime
Still not a god.

I find kinda ironic when Re:Zero fans make fun of SAO. SAO's fault is that it ended so we have the whole picture to judge it while Re:Zero still has some of the potential that people hype in every new show.

Also yeah that is another weakness of the show. It isn't forgotten though because he knows it and he'll bring it up.
Maybe he will maybe he won't but for half of the first season the only interesting characterization of the whole show was forgotten. I even doubt it will come back later since the show seems done with it.

MasterHavik said:
the female characters aren't just waifubait that need to be save by the hero.
Really? From what I remember Emilia and Rem were almost always saved by him even though he didn't fight directly. In the last arc Rem was basically Subaru's dog.

I think him yelling at them and telling them to do this or that is not him saving him. The dude gets his ass kicked so much it's insane. I mean shit to clear out those demon dogs he needed help. Yeah he did get his win over that one guy but it was just a punch and after all the shit he has bene through. I think he deserves one win.

Yeah he did get his win over that one guy but it was just a punch and after all the shit he has bene through. I think he deserves one win.
Rem going after the demon dogs was pretty much mumei going after the zombies in the second train station, forced behaviour in order to make the mc shine.
It's like the author has this moments in mind but the anime doesn't really manage to pass the build up as genuine so they come out as forced.


For what I care he could have died even 1000000000 times but if it is not believable to me then I have no empathy for him. Steins;Gate did this better and I actually felt a bit sorry for him. A lot of fans say "imagine what's that like" to justify what seems as unreasonable behaviour but I don't agree. It's the show's job to find a way to convey those feelings, if I had to insert myself into all characters in order to understand them than there would be no distinction between good and bad character as in order to divide them that way you should use logic not emotion.

Also after all that screaming and detachment from reality derived from the amount of deaths, the last death destroyed the credibility of them, his death meant pretty much nothing.

Well if he keeps falling he is struck in an endless loop for the rest of his life. I wonder if that would be one of the series' end goals.

Also you can't compare to this Steins Gate. Better off comparing it to When They Cry my man. also you kind of just have to reset and understand how all the save point he reaches have 3 to 4 bad outcomes and one good outcome. You think this would get boring but they have him die in some many different way it's pretty insane. Granted this story structure isn't for everyone. It's really one that is very unique in its own right.

I'm sure the only reason Love Live didn't win was because Crunchyroll only showed it in Europe. Yep, that's it. That's definitely it.

Seriously though I'm pretty disappointed how boring Australia's taste is. Not that I didn't like Re:Zero but I was hoping we had more interesting taste than Trump country.

@kazuro Maybe Crunchy thinks India and Nepal have similar tastes and thus, offering the exact same anime for them (including the exclusion of Re:Zero from the lineup)

Even then it won't beat Relife in India, webtoon was known already and Re:zero is considered garbage.
