Errrm, yes it is. It's called "Most Popular". You can't "slam" dem 9 or 10 on being a member. Pfff
You know no one here gives a flying fuck about the most popular list right? We actually talk about the highest rated list on MAL. That's what this basically is in a sense, even if it can be skewed by popularity.

How stupid. What makes this list "official" in any way?

He can be butthurt all he wants about Japan's taste, they honestly could give less of a fuck.
He genuinely isn't. He was surprised by some of the entries (would you have expected Tiger and Bunny at the top?) and for interested to see what the rest of the world thinks are the best anime. It's being done by something/someone popular like the NHK is in Japan. What's stupid is your spite.

I would have expected T&B to be at/near the top because I know it's very popular over there.

I'm not spiteful lmao, I don't give a shit about TheAnimeMan. I find the poll to be dumb, that's all.

Then why make such accusations about him they are blatantly proven untrue by the video itself? I had no idea Tiger and Bunjybwas so oopukarnover there until the list, and even he had never really heard of it, and he lives here half the time.

Shuumatsu Nani Shitemasu ka? Isogashii Desu ka? Sukutte Moratte ii desu ka?

If I could but every times it tell me to retry later because there's too many peoples trying to edit the file.~


Also you can say whatever you want about TheAnimeMan but due to his position in japan, popularity, and the fact that he talks Japanese, he's able to bring in content than no other youtuber does, like Japanese authors interviews.
He interviewed Hasekura Isuna lately, and that author has been completely absent of any social network for years (following an internet scandal a few years ago that resulted among other things in having his twitter spammed by angry keyboard warriors) so seeing Spice & wolf's author interviewed like that is something special. I wish he asked questions about Magdala rather than ignoring it though.

This is a genuinely inventive idea, so I don't understand why people are hating on it. Not to bash MAL's rating system, but it isn't the most accurate either, I am not saying this will be particurlaly the most accurate, but at least this way we get more of a general consensus from the international community instead of a game where people either give a 1 or 10 to manipulate the top charts.

Just answer it genuinely guys, this may be his idea but he's doing it for the good of the anime community, not for any other reason. <- Whether or not you believe this statement or not, it stands that this is not about him, but the anime community, just suck it up and put your 5 favorite anime in and see the results. It could be the same thing we all thought, or it could reveal something new that not a lot of people considered before this.

If you didn't give a shit, you wouldn't be spiteful by saying he was butthurt. If you found the poll to be dumb, then there was no reason to comment on his intentions/ motives.

The popularity list of MAL counts the number of votes for each entry, which is quite substantially different from favorites. I expect a lot of popular stuff to be in the list, but I don't expect a poll like this to be driven by popularity as MAL understands the term. I certainly would not expect Another (#27 in popularity) to outrank Cowboy Bebop (#33) in this poll, for instance.

Popularity poll is about which anime has been seen the most, i.e. MAL's popularity list, and what he is doing is a favorites list, aka which anime has he most amount of people who consider it a favorite rather than something they just so happened to see.

I'm agreeing to disagree. I'm saying that the top 100 list that TheAnimeMan is trying to do is pointless because there are already so many official "Top Rated", "Most Popular", and other variations of the list.

Now if he wants to do this, it's okay. Just don't try and pass it off as anything official or more accurate than any of the other list. Also, stop sending your lapdogs to spam in other communities. He started this whole thing off on a really bad step.

Why didn't he mention MALs top 100s and compare them to his list?

Fair point and I agree, if I don't mind participating is because another one of these doesn't do any harm. Also, being a poll that is created from scratch instead of a historical archive of ratings does have advantages that can be considered.

Kuraokani said:

He is not, though. He simply wants to replicate the sort of list he reacted to, for an international audience. He is unrealistically ambitious and I doubt it gets the reception he intends to, mainly because it's still biased towards English-speaking viewers and among those the ones that interact regularly through the internet, and among those most likely the ones who already know who he is.

I didn't pay much attention to the video but I didn't hear any claim for officiality. That would be dumb, specially with a voting system that can be abused so easily.

Kuraokani said:

Eh, what? He is not responsible for people not respecting the rules of these other communities. He asked people to visibilize this through social networks and sites, and there are perfectly legal ways to do so. He did not specifically ask them to abuse the sites' rules so there's nothing to blame.

Kuraokani said:

He probably thinks that he can have a more diverse participation for this list since he's not only counting the ratings from one site but trying to encourage potentially anybody he finds across the internet.

On the other hand he is doing it as an answer to the top he recently reacted to. And as I suggested above, I would add that a poll is different from the ranking of a website like MAL because the latter is cumulative information that is collected over the years, while the poll will tell TheAnimeMan what is the best for the anime community right now.

I don't know what you mean about Bakemonogatari objectively not being the best. I have no complaints about any renditions of Monogatari making the list. IF anything I give the edge to the Second Season. Not sure if they're being counted together or seperately, but noone is going to bitch about Monogatari's (rightfully) high placement on the list.
