Not everything that is good has to be deep. OPM is rated highly because it's just purely great entertainment, and anyone going into it expecting to have deep plot and fleshed out characters is going to have a bad time.

Take it for what it is, and you'll see why it's so revered.

I agree about good shows not necessarily having to be deep and that you shouldn't judge shows for what they aren't, but I disagree about One Punch Man not having flashed out characters which is what your post seems to imply. Both myself and PantsOnHead have already spent time giving examples to this kind of thing in OPM and it's insulting when those posts are ignored and people continue to refer to the show as nothing more than simple entertainment. Two friends of mine who aren't even into action are having a great time with the manga just because of the characters.

I don't get your reasoning.
Because it's not popular - it's not good?
ERASED isn't really that good, it's just some random anime that happens to be "popular" - doesn't automatically mean it's better. Not too mention the select few thousand(s) that praise it to be the savior of all anime. Please, just stop.

Well, Erased was quite good for me but AOTY?? I don't think so (I've read the Manga by the way)

There is so many good anime release this year that I anticipate more & could be the "Real AOTY" : Jojo Part 4, Orange, Joker Game, Luger Code 1951, Tenkyou no Alderamin, Mob Psycho 100, Amanchu, Re:Zero, Sakamoto Desu ga?, Drifters, Mirai Arise, Nanbaka, Bungou Stray Dogs, Rewrite, D. Gray-man etc.

All anime I mentioned above have very good source materials (I've been read them all). This is Amazing Year for anime.

Also usually WINTER is the Weakest Season in the year.

No, it doesn't "happen" to be popular, it's not even "that" popular, sure it is, but not "that" popular and I can prove it, by looking at the ranking for the popularity, you can tell it's not even above #200 and it's rated this highly, overrated? sure, but doesn't mean it's worse than that elitist anime.
It's popular because of the suspense and cliffhanger thrown at episode 1, and now literally everyone and their mothers are telling people to watch this, the only reason it has the "popularity" that it has.

Wait for Rewrite.
Rewrite has wonderful story, but I don't know if 8bit don't screw it up.... (most likely unfortunately)

But anyway BokuMachi is ALREADY definetly one of the best, if not the best anime from past years. My top 5 is rock solid since Steins;Gate, but now I think, BokuMachi will change this fact.

Of course, most of super popular titles are a total trash, but not all, sometimes something popular is great. BokuMachi is one of those anime.
According to your toplist, you love battle shounen anime. It's really not strange that you consider BokuMachi as average title.
For example, I consider all titles in your top as average or just boring. I'm searching for something different, and you too.

Way too early to say this will be AOTY, given that we don't know for sure every show coming out this year. There are many shows that COULD compete with this that we already know about (Steins;Gate 0 for instance), and I'm sure a few other surprises will pop up throughout the year that we don't know about yet.

That being said, this could well do it if it continues to be as consistently excellent as it has been so far. Stranger things have happened, after all.

By MAL ratings?
Maybe. Doubtful since all the manga viewer say that it goes downhill from here on out.
It's just the initial hype. It's a great anime, but nothing worthy of AOTY. It'll be impressive if it's kicked out of the top 10 AOTY. It's a great year~

but if it's about rating....if Erased's rating will keep in #7 i don't think other anime that will air in 2016 can beat that.

Edit: I FORGET ABOUT S;G XD XD THAT ONE WILL WIN THE NUMBER 1 SPOT IN THIS YEAR.....PROBABLY...

Why does it matter, whether or not this show is AOTY?

(Which btw, it isn't, that title goes to Shōwa Genroku Rakugo Shinjū 10/10 AOTY 2016, I mean come on guys, you have to agree unless your on crack, in which case it's perfectly fine for you to have a differing opinion)

In what way does some prick on the internet calling a certain mediocre, obviously not AOTY, Anime of the Year, affect you guys personally to such a degree you need to bloat this shitty thread to over 200 posts?


Well, you are no different than op, since you're saying a series is AOTY without watching or knowing what is to come in the other seasons. If op had said erased is a candidate for AOTY then he wouldn't seem so foolish. BTW this is a discussion, so of course it will have a lot of post, plus looking at its rating I'm sure op isn't the only one that think it is AOTY already.

OT: Erased if done properly can be anime of the season at best. If it can beat Shouwa that is. Both are my favorites this season that's for sure.
Don't forget there will be lots of good contenders in the close next seasons (Orange, Sakamoto desu ga? Boku no Hero Academia and apparently the hyped Rewrite...)

True, since last year wasn't that great. OPM and and BokuDake fans would have went batshit crazy, arguing with each other what is AOTY.

It's got a score of 8.10, last time I checked that's a pretty high rating... And all I was saying was don't complain about a small few praising one show when another show gets even more undeserved praise. No hate, just love.

Who knows. It seems pretty good so far. I wouldn't agree with all these 10/10 reviews at all, it doesn't seem like a 10, but what's really funny is the 2/10 & 1/10 scores that people are giving because the anime's popular and hyped. I mean obviously it has flaws but it's far from one of the worst anime out there, and these reviews want so hard to be different.
Let's see... here's a quote from someone that sounds pretty accurate:
"...due to Erased's immense popularity people deliberately and desperately keep searching for something they can criticize, just to not share the general opinion and stand out".
Overall it should be good if the story doesn't go downhill from here.

But after watching Shouwa Genroku Rakugo Shinjuu first episode (and waiting impatiently for the next episode every week), i think that one is my aots.

I don't really have a favorite anime but this is definitely in the top 10 if it holds up.

Idk why people seem to like Shouwa but that is just personal tastes and that's all this ever is... so the fact of the matter is this could be best AOTY since it's personal taste and somebody can believe that... the majority might not but it will be AOTY for that person.

The year has just begun. Still haven't watched this anime yet, so I'm not gonna argue further.
Also, your average score's 8.04..... means every anime you find falls under the category of "Very Good" by MAL Scoring means.... soo yeah.

Im curious - can you list all of those? Will prob add to my PTW if theyre that good.

On topic, Id say its the best right now by a decent margin. Ive watched about 10 or so, and Erased is imo the best and most universal one out right now. For the whole year...hmm, I dont think therell be anything that can top its ranking, but personally, I will like some shows as much or more I suspect (big Danganronpa fan and I also enjoy Ace Attourney and Boku no Hero decently)

I guess theres some big shows like Rewrite and Berserk or Shingeki (not sure how many of these are 2016) but I dont expect these to get more than the top 50. Ive read the Shingeki manga and found its beginning hype carries it along better than the later parts. Berserk is a huge manga base but its first adaptation didnt fare as well as its manga so I dont think its second will do significantly better, esp since I heard its a continuation. And ReWrite. Eh, I doubt itll surpass After Story, and AS is already below Erased (which may drop a bit but still, very high bar to reach)

I said he should've said "most popular" because "best" is an objectified opinion, while "popular" is a fact.
That has nothing to do with whether someone agrees to me that my favorite show is the best.

It was more of a generalisation. Almost every anime is going to have some character or relationship development within it. It's more the people that going into it seem to expect slice-of-life levels of character depth from all of the many characters.

Saitama & Genos, being the only real main characters and the game lacking a proper main antagonist, get enough development to satisfy but two characters aren't enough for people watching one punch man and expecting Evangelion levels of character depth when in reality, Madhouse did a fine job.
