YES!! Trigun Maximum deserves it! :D I saw one episode of Frontier, it was swell. Perhaps I'll watch it

Macross Frontier deserves it. It was head and tails different and unique from anything else produced in the Macross Franchise.

I think Macross Zero was better. I don't think it deserved the w/e award. And since when did The Two Towers become sci-fi?

Don't find Macross F as deserving as TokiKake and Dennou Coil, but eh.

A win for Macross F is a win for Ranka Lee.
Yay for Ranka Lee!

I suppose for the Scifi genres, Frontier was pretty good. Hm.
