I think you guys got it all wrong. I think because it's only spring 2011 anime that's why you can't see Gintama up there,thus, Gintama will be a long running series again :D No need for a damn poll for Gintama as that title will exist next season or in the next next season XDD

gotta applaud the Japanese Otaku Community they know taste if they see one lol Hidan No Aria although i know is pretty much copy of Shana and JC's other works still cant wait for it gonna be huge in Japan

Gintama although i laugh my head off there most likely in my theory going to run out of ideas for episodes just me saying thats all Fillers galore but there going to be funny at least XD. and its Jump 'nuff sed!

Maria Holic 2 most wanted series to watch hahaha SHAFT you beauty mate ive been looking forward for this season since last year !!!

and the rest are equally 9/10 XD

I'm totally OK with this list.
I have yet to watch kaiji, but other than that, Good job japan. Although there're so many promising series (for me anyways, I give almost everything a chance) that it's really hard to chose.
Also, I'm really looking forward to Lotte, but on a totally different level than say, Denpa onna. It'd be imposible to pick one. (actually, I love shaft so it's not hard at all, but you get the point)

all I can say is Appleseed XIII... it never ENDS...! jeez... oh and closely following is Yu-Gi-Oh! Zexel... seriously. when will they learn IT'S NOT GONNA HAPPEN WITH THAT SERIES.
Though I'll definitely be keeping my eye on Deadman Wonderland! Spectacular! :D

Terrible taste as usual ｗｗｗｗ

Be ashamed, Japan.

I don't think alot of people even vote..

Seems they do have some decent tastes! But I'm surprised that Sket Dance, Deadman Wonderland, and Toriko aren't up there.

hidan no aira, i was exicted about it but didnt think it would be this popular, wonder how the anime will turn out.

Apr 2, 2011 3:42 PM by Leonard93

Quite a few of those on the list sound pretty interesting.

Sort of off topic but its surprising how visually appealing they all look. I guess anime is heading in that direction (with some exceptions of course)?

Apr 2, 2011 3:05 PM by Rezurrekt

Out of that entire top ten, the only one that I'm really planning to follow is Ao no Exorcist. I wish Sket Dance and Deadman Wonderland had made it onto the rankings as well, but oh well.

Apr 2, 2011 3:03 PM by Numi

wtf....I'm really surprised deadman wonderland isn't up there. O___O

Apr 2, 2011 2:49 PM by louixa

didnt know that aria would be so high ranked, hope it is a nice serie. still have to read the manga~~

Apr 2, 2011 1:37 PM by shuncchi

This list seems ridiculous on so many levels. Like many people here, I expected [C] and Ao no Exorcist to be ranked higher than that. I guess we'll just have to wait and see...
