2025 is here, and what better way to celebrate the new year than looking back on the old one?With a survey of 563 /a/nons it's time to announce /a/'s Official™ and Objective™ AOTY 2024.Categories include best anime, worst anime, most surprising anime, most disappointing anime, best OP, best ED, best OST, best scene, best girl, best boy, best seiyuu, shows watched, and shows dropped.The announcements will start below and the complete data sheet will be posted at the end so you can verify I'm not just making this shit up.And remember, none of this matters anyway because your taste is superior and you've always known /a/ had shit taste.
First, the seasonal awards, starting with Winter:AOTS:1 - Dungeon Meshi, with 84 votes2 - Mahou Shoujo ni Akogarete, with 50 votes3 - Yuuki Bakuhatsu Bang Bravern, with 21 votes
AOTS (Short) - Maomao no Hitorigoto, with 24 votesAOTS (Movie) - Oomuro-ke: dear sisters and dear friends, with 39 votesAOTS (OVA/Special) - GREAT PRETENDER: razbliuto, with 17 votesWAOTS - Ore dake Level Up na Ken, with 32 votesSOTS - Mahou Shoujo ni Akogarete, with 21 votesDOTS - Metallic Rouge, with 54 votesOPOTS - Yuuki Bakuhatsu Bang Bravern, with 32 voteshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Aw_k_3NkfXIEDOTS - Dungeon Meshi, with 42 voteshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jio_17jg980OSTOTS - Dungeon Meshi, with 41 votes eachhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QV8KtQ9MfEw&list=PLl-vhnGPY7courGxq8SGLiz8OE1QalA34Best Scene - Dungeon Meshi, with 28 votes eachFalin ResurrectionBest Girl - Donato Marcille from Dungeon Meshi, with 30 votesBest Boy - Lewis Smith from Yuuki Bakuhatsu Bang Bravern, with 31 votesBest Seiyuu - Izumi Fuuka (Hiiragi Utena, Bashame Meme, Rindou Rin), with 25 votesMost watched show - Mahou Shoujo ni Akogarete, with 143 viewers, constituting 68.75% of votersMost dropped show - Metallic Rouge, which lost 28 viewers, constituting 13.46% of votersHonorable Mentions:Pon no Michi - for saving fansubbingHikari no Ou - even messier, even poorer execution, but so much more ambitious. I still dream of a worldline where this could've been the next Shinsekai YoriIshura - Interesting world building, good characters, good fights and choreography,Metallic Rouge was overwhelmingly disappointing, but still couldn't reach the levels of shit Solo Leveling did.As surprising as it is to see a yuri that focuses on the good stuff, it's the gay men who are able to overcome the Dungeon with their manly spirits.
Rigged poll, OP is a faggot
Next, we move on to Spring:AOTS:1 - GIRLS BAND CRY, with 46 votes2 - Shuumatsu Train Doko e Iku?, with 29 votes3 - Mushoku Tensei II: Isekai Ittara Honki Dasu Part 2, with 28 votes
LETSGOO
AOTS (Short) - Wan Wan Train Doko e Iku?, with 20 votesAOTS (Movie) - Look Back, with 66 votesAOTS (OVA/Special) - Girls und Panzer: Taichou War!, with 41 votesWAOTS - Dekisokonai to Yobareta Moto Eiyuu wa, Jikka kara Tsuihou Sareta node Suki Katte ni Ikiru Koto ni Shita, with 14 votesSOTS - GIRLS BAND CRY, with 28 votesDOTS - Yoru no Kurage wa Oyogenai, with 33 votesOPOTS - GIRLS BAND CRY, with 43 voteshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YDLafQ-Rg-kEDOTS - Shuumatsu Train Doko e Iku?, with 28 voteshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CJcHQm-zA4QOSTOTS - GIRLS BAND CRY, with 47 voteshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-ep7yMWErbk&list=PLDfNwbqf7FLGfPbWU6FTJc0Hvx5i9wPEuBest Scene - GIRLS BAND CRY, with 11 votesNina finally reconciles with her dadBest Girl - Iseri Nina from GIRLS BAND CRY, with 16 votesBest Boy - Satou Kazuma from Kono Subarashii Sekai_ni Shukufuku wo! 3, with 21 votesBest Seiyuu - Rina (Iseri Nina), with 15 votesMost watched show - Kono Subarashii Sekai_ni Shukufuku wo! 3, with 129 viewers, constituting 62.62% of votersMost dropped show - Blue Archive The Animation, which lost 28 viewers, constituting 13.59% of votersHonorable Mentions:Hibike Euphonium - a fitting, if perhaps frustrating, conclusion to an emotional, decade long journeyHenjin na salad bowl - The best, funniest, wackiest reverse isekai in yearsSentai Daishikkaku - The premise of the bad guys being the "good guys" is refreshing to watch also it has an interesting world settingKaijuu 8-gou makes a run for worst anime, but doesn't have enough cliches to beat the LN title.Nothing comes even close to disappointing like Yoru.GBC tries to sweep music, but trains put up a fight and steal best ED.It still manages to take best scene over the season's other band anime by not having any big, complicated numbers for them to forget to type.Classic 2D favorites Kumiko and Holo can't stand up to the new hotness of 3D girls like Nina.
>>274888006>WAOTS - Ore dake Level Up na Ken, with 32 votesKEK
>>274887984>Dung meshit over MahoAkoHoly normalfag taste. The fuck happened to /a/.

AOTS (Short) - Katsute Mahou Shoujo to Aku wa Tekitai Shite Ita., with 38 votesAOTS (Movie) - Mononoke: Karakasa, with 13 votesAOTS (OVA/Special) - Yuru Camp△ SEASON 3 OVA, with 32 votesWAOTS - Rick and Morty: The Anime, with 19 votesSOTS - Make Heroine ga Oosugiru!, with 21 votesDOTS - Shikanoko Nokonoko Koshitantan, with 42 votesOPOTS - Shikanoko Nokonoko Koshitantan, with 34 voteshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pxEV1A5mTYMEDOTS - Nige Jouzu no Wakagimi, with 33 voteshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VNl4J9b_xhEOSTOTS - Monogatari Series: Off & Monster Season, with 15 voteshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kC_rKA7N5IE&list=PLH8Eb84daSe-Z0Wivp3tqjJcZMW6LX_ztBest Scene - Nige Jouzu no Wakagimi, with 14 votesTokiyuki vs ShokanBest Girl - Yanami Anna from Make Heroine ga Oosugiru!, with 24 votesBest Boy - Houjou Tokiyuki from Nige Jouzu no Wakagimi, with 32 votesBest Seiyuu - Hayami Saori (Ononoki Yotsugi, Nanakura Rin, Shiba Miyuki), with 13 votesMost watched show - Make Heroine ga Oosugiru!, with 112 viewers, constituting 56.28% of votersMost dropped show - Shikanoko Nokonoko Koshitantan, which lost 42 viewers, constituting 21.11% of votersHonorable Mentions:Shoushimin Series - A slow but very engaging slice of life "mystery" series with a surprising amount of character depth and writing.Gimai Seikatsu - Rarely see such melancholic anime. Props to the director.Dungeon no Naka no Hito - Both the comfiest and edgiest show this seasonA close race this season, with Oshi no Ko and Mayonaka Punch coming inches away from the top 3.Worst anime is similarly close, with Nanare Hananare and Shikanoko coming close to the bottom.Maybe hyping everyone up with a catchy OP when your show isn't actually funny is a bad idea. As is making three shows in one season.Anna >>> Lemon > Komari are the MakeIne rankings. Osanai-san is the only girl who can even come close to Anna. /a/ sure loves girls who can eat.
>>274888097/a/ is a Trigger board.
>>274888135I guess anons got lazier and lazier as the poll went on
Finally, we reach the end with Fall:AOTS:1 - Dandadan, with 53 votes2 - Puniru wa Kawaii Slime, with 33 votes3 - Chi.: Chikyuu no Undou ni Tsuite, with 22 votes

The story, characters, tropes and artstyle have that feelling of a 2015 animeMaou 2099 - I finally got my Shadowrun anime, even if the serials were filed offUzumaki managed to do in 4 episodes what others couldn't even come close to in 12, totally ruin all the goodwill /a/ had for it.It was a season of niche appeal, with only Dandadan getting more than 40% of /a/ to watch it.Bananya and the MyGO movies both came an inch from winning their respective ctegories.Acro Trip falls just short of SOTS, but still manages to nab Best Boy.
>>274888158>no HanMeg
>>274888158Pollanon, I respect you and everything...but putting Komari last? And claiming the sea otter as being vastly superior?
Bleachbros...
Fall truly is the worst season.
Now on to the yearly awards:SOTY - GIRLS BAND CRY, with 20 votesDOTY - Uzumaki, with 37 votesOPOTY - Dandadan, with 29 voteshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a4na2opArGYEDOTY - Puniru wa Kawaii Slime, with 29 voteshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pNBnUIbkbmAOSTOTY - GIRLS BAND CRY, with 34 voteshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-ep7yMWErbk&list=PLDfNwbqf7FLGfPbWU6FTJc0Hvx5i9wPEuBest Scene - Dungeon Meshi, with 9 votes and 28 seasonal Best Scene votesEnter the FaligonBest Seiyuu - Izumi Fuuka (Hiiragi Utena, Bashame Meme, Rindou Rin), with 18 votesHonorable Mentions:Acro Trip - finally mahou shoujo thats actually shoujo and not a seinen for denegenaratesOoi! Tonbo - Golf tutorial made on a shoestring budget had no right making me both smile and cry that muchSpice and Wolf - It's a second telling of the manga and pulls it off while adding a lot. Spice and Wolf in general is such a strong story. The romance is a slow blossom between two competent and strong-willed people against the backdrop of economics and an odyssey to bring Holo to a home that might not exist - poignant and well-written.The Fable - a fantastic crime thriller with a rare (for anime) sense of dark, deadpan humourKaii to Otome to Kamikakushi - Representing a grand tradition of urban fantasy, lewdness, and social criticism that is core to the otaku subculture; compare to other standouts like Monogatari and Dandadan. It might be said that this show is the Best Culture since the ideas and aesthetics surpass its implementation.Even Metallic Rouge and Shikanoko can't compete with Uzumaki's downward spiral from promising to complete shit, making this the first time an OVA has taken DOTY.The cute boy show tries for best ED, but can't compete with the cute slime.Euphofags and Mushokufags compete to see which fanbase is worse at being able to spell their show's title while Dungeon Meshi and GBC are in a dead heat to pick up the award they dropped.
The important announcements are about to start, but first let's put things in perspective by letting you know just what shows /a/ was watching.Most watched shows:1 - Mahou Shoujo ni Akogarete, with 143 viewers, constituting 68.75% of voters2 - Dungeon Meshi, with 137 viewers, constituting 65.87% of voters3 - Dandadan, with 126 viewers, constituting 64.29% of voters4 - Kono Subarashii Sekai_ni Shukufuku wo! 3, with 129 viewers, constituting 62.62% of voters5 - Make Heroine ga Oosugiru!, with 112 viewers, constituting 56.28% of voters6 - Shuumatsu Train Doko e Iku?, with 113 viewers, constituting 54.85% of voters7 - [Oshi no Ko] 2nd Season, with 102 viewers, constituting 51.26% of voters8 - GIRLS BAND CRY, with 105 viewers, constituting 50.97% of voters9 - Shikanoko Nokonoko Koshitantan, with 95 viewers, constituting 47.74% of voters10 - Mushoku Tensei II: Isekai Ittara Honki Dasu Part 2, with 97 viewers, constituting 47.09% of votersMost dropped shows:1 - Shikanoko Nokonoko Koshitantan, which lost 42 viewers, constituting 21.11% of voters2 - 2.5 Jigen no Ririsa, which lost 29 viewers, constituting 14.57% of voters3 - Kimi wa Meido-sama., which lost 27 viewers, constituting 13.78% of voters4 - Blue Archive The Animation, which lost 28 viewers, constituting 13.59% of voters5 - Metallic Rouge, which lost 28 viewers, constituting 13.46% of voters6 - Na-Nare Hana-Nare, which lost 25 viewers, constituting 12.56% of voters7 - Uzumaki, which lost 24 viewers, constituting 12.24% of voters8 - Hime-sama, "Goumon" no Jikan desu, which lost 25 viewers, constituting 12.02% of voters9 - VTuber nanda ga Haishin Kiri Wasuretara Densetsu ni Natteta, which lost 23 viewers, constituting 11.56% of voters10 - Sasaki to Pii-chan, which lost 24 viewers, constituting 11.54% of votersDeer show lost far more viewers than anyone else, but still managed to keep most.Despite being unable to speak its name, most of /a/ still found that isekai a better comedy.
>>274887969Oh boy just hit me with it
>>274888076If I had to choose I would rather give train op of the season so that gbc can have the ed, it's much more emotional and connected to the show than the op is, train op is definitely more cachy and memorable too.
Now for the most important part, finding out who the most beloved character of 2024 is:5 - Kurozane Chroma from Acro Trip, with 7 votes and 18 seasonal Best Boy votes4 - Greyrat Rudeus from Mushoku Tensei II: Isekai Ittara Honki Dasu Part 2, with 9 votes and 13 seasonal Best Boy votes3 - Touden Laios from Dungeon Meshi, with 9 votes and 26 seasonal Best Boy votes2 - Houjou Tokiyuki from Nige Jouzu no Wakagimi, with 19 votes

And the title of Best Boy 2024 belongs to:Lewis Smith from Yuuki Bakuhatsu Bang Bravern, with 20 votes
>>274888135I think that just means there was less competition in winter
>>274888358lol whatWell that was unexpected. I didn't think anyone gave a shit about that show.

Deer show was great and /a/ has shit taste

>>274888418>15 votesLIMITLESS
1st place:ONE PIECE FAN LETTER, with 28 votes
Even though last year my tastes were pretty much in line with the top scorers, this year I feel like my favorites were underappreciated.
>>274888441People actually watched the Rick and Morty anime?
And for the movies:3rd place:Oomuro-ke: dear sisters and dear friends, with 22 votes
>>274888568What were your favorites? Not trying to shit on you I'm just interested.

And the shorts:3rd place:Maomao no Hitorigoto, with 13 votes
>>274888588Shoushimin, Mayonaka Punch, Ishura, Shuumatsu Train, Spice and Wolf all could be higher I think. I couldn't care less about GBC, Nige Jouzu or Make Heroine which took their places.

>>274889079Last years poll felt weird. Wouldn't be surprised if it was botted or brigaded. This one doesn't look so wrong at least, so maybe a lower number is more natural.
>>2748890182025 aoty will be Panty Stocking.
>>274889079Good.
>Frieren and DM airing on the same yearWho would win the poll?

>>274889104You were saying that before the results were posted. What actually is our 30?
>>274889104>Hibikino that highJaps have immaculate taste.
>>274889197All anime is free so why not?
But before you start shitposting about the results, here are some alternative measures that address some of the more common complaints so that you can damage control even harder.>but what if a dedicated fanbase were the only people who liked a show, that's not representative of /a/This is why we did the top five with points values. This way shows that made it into a lot of people's top 5 will get recognized more than a show that only won 1st place votes.Seasonal:Winter:1 - Dungeon Meshi, with 323 points2 - Mahou Shoujo ni Akogarete, with 220 points3 - Yuuki Bakuhatsu Bang Bravern, with 120 pointsSpring:1 - GIRLS BAND CRY, with 195 points2 - Shuumatsu Train Doko e Iku?, with 138 points3 - Mushoku Tensei II: Isekai Ittara Honki Dasu Part 2, with 137 pointsSummer:1 - Make Heroine ga Oosugiru!, with 186 points2 - Monogatari Series: Off & Monster Season, with 135 points3 - Nige Jouzu no Wakagimi, with 126 pointsFall:1 - Dandadan, with 229 points2 - Puniru wa Kawaii Slime, with 138 points3 - Chi.: Chikyuu no Undou ni Tsuite, with 118 pointsOverall:1 - Dungeon Meshi, with 736 points2 - Mahou Shoujo ni Akogarete, with 501 points3 - Dandadan, with 442 points4 - GIRLS BAND CRY, with 430 points5 - Make Heroine ga Oosugiru!, with 338 pointsDandadan jumps ahead of GBC with its much broader appeal.MakeIne joins the top five, showing that everyone enjoys a good romcom.Monogatari moves ahead of Nige Jouzu in its season, but falls off the top 5 overall.
>>274889104>Tonbo that highBased
>>274888778Dandadan getting 5th is pretty embarrassing/a/>>274888917Hibike snub was pretty surprising. The season wasn't even bad.>>274888927Based. It was a shit year overall but DM deserved it over Mahou and GBC which were FOTMs at best
>>274889197I watched it half drunk on Toonami. I have a little respect for the creator attempting to tell a serious story instead of a comedy even if he failed at it. But yeah it was shit.
>>274889079No, not even close
>but popular shows will obviously get more votes than hidden gems, even if their quality isn't as goodThis is what the AOTY - Weighted field is for. It takes the total number of votes a show received (filtered to those who also filled out the Completed field) and divides it by the percentage of people who gave it a shot (completed + dropped). This equalizes the votes as if each show had the same viewership.That makes it a bit more fair, but it also introduces inaccuracies from the lower sample size (a lot of people didn't bother with the completed fields) and has a tendency to skew extremely low viewership shows to unrealistic numbers.Seasonal:Winter - Dungeon Meshi, with 84 votes and 73.08% viewership, totalling 103 weighted votesSpring - GIRLS BAND CRY, with 46 votes and 55.83% viewership, totalling 70 weighted votesSummer - Make Heroine ga Oosugiru!, with 37 votes and 60.80% viewership, totalling 56 weighted votesFall - Natsume Yuujinchou Shichi, with 7 votes and 9.18% viewership, totalling 76 weighted votesOverall:1 - Dungeon Meshi, with 73 votes and 73.08% viewership, totalling 34 weighted votes2 - GIRLS BAND CRY, with 47 votes and 55.83% viewership, totalling 34 weighted votes3 - Dungeon ni Deai wo Motomeru no wa Machigatteiru Darou ka V: Houjou no Megami-hen, with 5 votes and 16.84% viewership, totalling 24 weighted votes4 - Yuuki Bakuhatsu Bang Bravern, with 18 votes and 37.02% viewership, totalling 22 weighted votes5 - Dead Dead Demon's Dededededestruction, with 6 votes and 18.75% viewership, totalling 21 weighted votesGBC comes a centimeter from the top, but is still a fraction of a point behind Dungeon Meshi.The other Dungeon show and DDDDDDD skyrocket to the top.There are no really silly results here this year, with even Natsume Yuujinchou in Fall having a healthy viewership backing its inflated score.
>but the poll is overrun by casuals whose votes shouldn't be countedTo account for this, I made new fields to filter out votes from people who didn't complete a certain number of shows per season. This should give results from only the serious fans without including all of those filthy casuals who definitely don't comprise a large portion of our board.The main problem with this is sample size. Between the people who didn't fill out the completed field and those who didn't even watch more than 5 shows a season, we're down to 105 voters for the yearly ranking.>5 shows per seasonSeasonal:Winter - Dungeon Meshi, with 52 votesSpring - GIRLS BAND CRY, with 28 votesSummer - Make Heroine ga Oosugiru!, with 26 votesFall - Dandadan, with [25 votesOverall:1 - Dungeon Meshi, with 17 votes2 - GIRLS BAND CRY, with 12 votes3 - Puniru wa Kawaii Slime, Monogatari Series: Off & Monster Season and Chi.: Chikyuu no Undou ni Tsuite, with 5 votes each>10 shows per seasonSeasonal:Winter - Dungeon Meshi, with 34 votesSpring - Mushoku Tensei II: Isekai Ittara Honki Dasu Part 2, with 18 votesSummer - Make Heroine ga Oosugiru!, with 14 votesFall - Puniru wa Kawaii Slime, with 16 votesOverall:1 - Dungeon Meshi, with 10 votes2 - GIRLS BAND CRY, with 5 votes3 - Mahou Shoujo ni Akogarete, with 4 votes4 - 5 shows, with 3 votes eachThe top rankings stay pretty much the same, but MahoAko falls off while Puniru and Chi move up to the head of the trailing pack.Mushoku and Puniru also move to the top of their seasons.

>>274888076>Hibike Euphonium - a fitting, if perhaps frustrating, conclusion to an emotional, decade long journeyAgreed, and that's why it was my AOTY, but I guess most anons just weren't mature enough to appreciate a properly painful coming-of-age story.

>>274889453>>30 shows per seasonPunirubros!I should try Bravern, best boy was voted from that anime.
>>274888006>Most watched show - Mahou Shoujo ni AkogareteI watched this too but skipped over it on the list because my mind doesn't register the full nip name. It's now like one of the 3 shows I forgot to put on the poll.Other than that, basically all my votes went against the /a/ hivemind and I don't really feel represented. Only thing I agreed with was that Taichou War was the best OVA whichever season it aired. It is what it is.
Reminder that /a/ had Dunmeshi manga threads since fucking forever.
>>274889489I like how many people agreed on giving Solo Leveling WAOTY, the most troll/shilled anime on the board.
>>274889453I guess this is the only one that count this year, sad.
>>274888441>>274888473Damn, just one more vote and Solo Leveling could've won WAOTY. I wish that happened because it'd be funny even though Uzumaki is probably worse.
>>274889453>Bravern and Puniru that hang on to their 2 votes the longestBased
>>274889566Only the mentally unstable with social issues hate DDD.
>>274888076>Classic 2D favorites Kumiko and Holo can't stand up to the new hotness of 3D girls like Nina./a/ has no taste. What else is new? Kumiko, Momoka, Subaru, Reina and Akira were all better if you paid any attention (but you didn't). Nina was ok, but a few rounds of correction short of greatness.
>>274889690So it describes /a/ pretty damn well then, eh?
>>274889704Kumiko only needed 4 more votes to win
>>274889642Solo Leveling is a straight adaptation of a bad manhwa. Uzumaki is a bad adaptation of a good manga. It wouldn't be as funny because everyone acknowledges that Solo Leveling is garbage but Uzumaki had some promise and the fact that it was in production hel for years so seeing it fail is more sad than funny.
>>274888473>>274889528Uzumaki being announced and delayed so far back for it to turn out how it did post ep1, it absolutely deserves it 100%.

I knew Puniru couldn't win, but I had hopes it would've at least been in the top 5. I hope it is in the top 10.>>274889583Same, none my 5 favorites maneged to be at the top lol. Makeine was the closest one I suppose.

>>274889713Not really. Old /a/ was better and enjoyed anime, modern /a/ is becoming a discount /v/
>>274889836You should just start to ignore these things, Nina is by far the worst anime girl to ever exist, why would you give her a vote? Even the scene with the dad is Nina just getting away with her bullshit, she doesn't learn anything.
Konosuba fell off.
Even Ban Gunha, my hero, wasn't able to save S4. Owari da, puppetbros.
>>274888358I suppose you combined votes for Lewis with votes for Bravern, which is fair but also a spoiler but also fuck anyone who hasn't watch it yet.

And here's the image results for this year.But wait, there's more! To celebrate having done this shitty poll for ten (10) years, I've compiled all of the results from the last decade and normalized the values for comparison. By running the data through the patented /a/ Ranking System™ we can now determine with statistical accuracy the 10 top 10s of the '10s.But first, some tidbits about you guys and the anime you watch:In the last 10 years, an average of 381 anime have aired each year. In total, that's 3,808 anime. Of these, /a/ has seen 3,331 of them.On average, 70 shows get at least one AOTY vote, but only 26 acquire more than 1% of the tally vote, and only 1 gets more than 10%There have been 5,288 votes submitted over the years, but only 41.20% of you filled out the whole thing./a/ has watched about 39 shows a year, or 10 a season.The most voted for sub-category is OPOTY, with 43.69% of you filling it out, while the least popular is Honorable Mention, with only 10.71%.The most divisive sub-category is WAOTY, with an average of 78 shows getting at least one vote, while the least divisive is Best Scene, which only averages 26 contenders.

>>274890262Speaking personally, I didn't watch a single show that year. I got pretty burned out after 2018 plus it was my final year at college. Thank god the pandemic came in the following year and I could get back into anime.
>>274890436To be fair Bleachpajeets are too busy spamming imdb and MAL
>>274890317If you remove Dungeon M*shi and Dandadan is not such a bad list, but still pretty shit compared to the other years.

>>274890317>No Tonbo5ch has better taste
How could this happen to Bleach?
>>274889267>Hibike snub was pretty surprising. The season wasn't even bad.It was a very competitive season for girlband and girldrama fans. Hibike probably didn't make the top 3 because it's a sequel and only a small percentage of voters watched the previous seasons. For those who did, the payoff S3 offered was pretty amazing.

>>274890648Holy shit it wasn't even close.
>>274890643It was ok. I didn't really think much of it though.
>>274890648
>>274890693Worry not, most of the people that voted this year will leave after today, they don't usually browse /a/.
>>274890317>>274890563Disgusting. Someone replace that thing with Kumiko.
>>274890643Yes I greatly enjoyed it, also best if you go in with as little knowledge as possible
When does girls band cry get good?It feels like im watching holo no graffiti?
>>274890729Both shows are for animation lovers still
>>274890317So next year we'll have Y.Aoi as VA of the year again? Good.
>>274890648Keichiro Saito is some kinda anime Jesus having 2 shows in top 3 of the past 10 years.

>>274890648Thank you for all your hard work.
>>274890816Considering she'll, hopefully, already be back as Madoka and MaoMao, and also Tamaki from the Fire Force season she actually gets to be useful in. She no doubt has it.

>>274888441>>274888473>Rick and Morty: The Anime>UzumakiBoth made by Adult Swim.That proves that the USA should not be allowed to make anime.
>>274890886We were too busy fishing
>>274890886I did my part. Not enough people watched it
>>274890937It was the "Nadeko runs naked around town" season.
>>274888927Voted for GBC but this show also deserved it, congrats!
>>274890928After the last ep I want to take back my vote for Orb.
>>274889912TBF anons fucked up
>>274890970Above Dandadan? Lmaoooooo
>>274888573I garuntee 99% of the votes for Rick and morty only did it as a meme and didn't watch the full thingAn actual fun 2deep4u show, usually they're dry af and are much more serious
>>274890317this ss is not even from part 2
>>274890939Uzumaki is a Nip production they just scammed burgers and shat out a product appropriate to their level of tastes. Demarco just keeps getting scammed and this year it's Watanabe's turn
>>274890980You have my permission.
>>274889239
>>274890937Its style overall is still top tier
>>274890515>10 - Kamisama ni Natta Hi (2020), with -384 pointsThis was AOTY tier for 80% of its runtime

>>274890204>splash
>>274890262As someone who was there, 2019 was a shit year for anime. I still voted, but I don't blame the anons who didn't.
>>274890997Same as Solo Leveling, Ninja Kamui was a billion times worse and it seems nobody voted for it.
>>274890317Girls Band Cry joins Houseki no Kuni and Kemono Friends as the CG anime that made the ranking. Mushoku Tensei and Hibike Euphonium join Mob Psycho 100 as the shows that got a three-peat. I know people are talking about how Hibike Euphonium has lost a lot of attention, but it's super impressive that it was still able to make the list after 8 years.
>>274888418>Anna won a pollWow, that's kinda funny.
>>274888982The Unoffensive Award for the show with the most viewers to not lose a single one:Kamonohashi Ron no Kindan Suiri 2nd Season, with 21 viewers (10.71%) and 0 dropped.>>274888135The votes were just more concentrated on the top 3. Every season got about the same number of votes.>>274888242The results of the poll are not representative of my personal taste. I cannot stress this enough. Just because only 3 people put Komari as best girl doesn't mean I would put her below anyone.>>274889836The universe where a bunch of Hibikifags forget that there's a ! and a 3 in their show's title because they're too stupid to follow instructions. aka this universe.>>274889928Yeah. I tried to keep the spoilers out of the announcements, but I'm not going to change the votes for that. Getting spoiled through this is pretty /a/, anyway.>>274890316That was 2017. 2019 was just a shit year.>>274890563The poll is based on merit.>>274890893This assigns value to every field and combines them, so getting lots of votes in other stuff can make up for being a bit behind in straight AOTY votes.
>>274887969Based
>>274891052More like 70% but same
>>274888097As someone who enjoyed both, I'm fine with this result.
>>274888418Best girl with only 15 votes, out of a universe with more than 300 voters is too few.

The Controversial Award for love it or hate it:Shikanoko Nokonoko Koshitantan, with 6 AOTY and 17 WAOTY votes
>>274891485nta that voted for it, but it did get better in the 2nd cour
>>274890910I was going to vote for her regardless because of the meme, but this makes me feel confident it'll probably be deserved.
>>274891485Maybe he's manga fan.
>>274889912>>27489000117th is still higher than last season's 26th. I'm a little confused by how Thunderbolt Fantasy can't place well despite how much /a/ seems to love it.
>>274890886Our tastes were too obscure for the unwashed masses, along with Trainbros (who are 90% the same demographic, don't fucking lie).
>>274891561Surely we'll vote for the puppet movie.
>>274889104It's insane how good 5ch's list is compared to /a/
>>274888927The tumblrification of anime continues
>>274891561Thread activity doesn't translate to votes, spice and wolf didn't place at all and it was pretty consistently big threads too for the whole 2 cour
>>274891561The threads are pretty slow which means that only a smal but very cultured part of /a/ loves it.
>>274888097>adaptation of manga that was extremely popular on /a/ is popular on /a/What shocking development.
>>274891561Puppetfags are vocal, no one watches it because it is NOTANIME
>>274891344This one hurt when comparing it to the manga
>>274888927Deserved.
The Seasonal Waifu Award for most Girl of the Season votes to a girl with 0 Girl of the Year votes:Ogawa Sumireko from Kaii to Otome to Kamikakushi, with 7 Girl of the Season votes and 0 Girl of the Year votes>>274891018My bad, I thought I checked but I guess not. If you have a better image I can update the file with it.
>>274890937Monogatari got a lot of loyalty points plus the principles votes from Doll/Snake fans (whose arcs were amazing), but the second half sucked donkey balls, and it's all because of Nisio's vampire fetish and Shinbo's unwillingness to deprioritize it.
shout out to the 3 niggas who voted for Nadeko
>>274891485I would assume because is a great show? Taking in count 99.99% of the criticisms over it are "OMG THID DOESN'T MAKE SENSE" I would say it doesn't have any flaw, except it does but the writing and script are not, I bet if Science Saru made it everyone would have praised it.

>>274891344I remember reading this years ago. Didn't even know it got anime adaptation.

So the trend your seeing is voting becoming more consolidated in the top titles.
Sengoko Youko nowhere...

>>274891849Barely anyone watched it, and then most of those who watched it hated it for being not good enough adaptation of their beloved manga.I still loved it. If sequel seasons werent in the vote, I would vote it as AOTY.
>>274891838Bravern was so fucking good.
The I Survived Award for sticking with it to the end:Rick and Morty: The Anime, with 16 (8.04%) dropped and 9 (4.52%) completed>>274891883Wrong resolution.>>274891834Kinda dark, but I guess it works.
>>274890470Even though Kumiko isn't as popular as she once was, she's still the most loved anime girl from the past decade
>>274888097The Dungeon Meshi manga threads gained far more traction than Mahoako even years ago before the anime was even conceived. Get fucked.

>>274890515>4 - Wonder Egg Priority (2021), with -486 pointsI RESENT THAT. WHY WOULD YOU MAKE INNOCENT EGGS CRY? HASN'T THE INDUSTRY HURT THEM ENOUGH?WEP was ambitious and creative enough to deserve a second chance despite the fact that the script and production values fell apart in the second half. Shinji Nojima wasn't made for the anime industry, but he could create something magical under the yoke of a strict editor. Who will be that man?> 10 - Kamisama ni Natta Hi (2020), with -384 pointsThis deserves to be higher. And by higher, I mean less appreciated. Never let Jun Maeda write an anime original script again.
>>274890007>Basic bitch shonen has no fanservice, no budget, no nudity, to black humor.Is this actually your first shounenshit?
>>274890997As someone who enjoyed the previous R&M anime shorts and still watch the main TV series it was complete fucking garbage anon. There's a difference between depth and just being esoteric for the sake of it all to tell a boring uninteresting story.>>274891105Ninja Kamui was mediocre but competent brain dead action show that didn't stand out in anyway
>>274891181Nope. I would tell you to eat shit and die, but that would prevent you from learning from your mistakes.
>>274888652My theater experience was it was really good, and I like the director a lot after it.Feels good
>>274891660>>274891834>>274891883>>274891981You should use babu instead
>>274889104>Girls Band Cry, Hibike Euphonium, Ooi! Tonbo, and Orb higher>Dandadan lowerOkay, I'll admit it. This year 5ch has better taste. But at least we have Bravern in our top 10.
>>274890317/a/ 2nd place > 5ch >>>>> /a/ 1st place
>>274888202>DandadanFucking zoomers.
>>274891849Pretty deserved frankly. While the story was good, every other aspect of the adaptation was lackluster. Animation wasn't great because White Fox is a shell of a studio, soundtrack was an uncharacteristically poor showing from Evan Call, and none of its voice talent gave particularly memorable performances.I do think there's a universe where it's AOTY but it's a few dozen timelines over from this one.
>>274891713I'll watch more anime this year if there is more anime worth watching. 2024 was really week. It was the first time since 2016 I have only done the AOTY portion of the vite because I watched so few shows.
>>274888226>oczy not bestest boyFuck
>>274892113Kill yourself, Re:Zerotard.
>>274891275Accurate. I loved it, but the rest of the season was just too strong.
>>274892111yeah wtf I thought the nips loved Bravern
>>274890317you really should have used a Nadeko pic for gatari, naked snake is 75% of the reason to watch this season.
>>274890515Franxx didn't win worst show in 2018?!
>>274890648Bocchi the GOAT.
>>274890317>phos best boy and girlkek
>>274892188It did.
>>274892159Probably Cygames marketing tricks to make it seem bigger than it was.
Better than last year's list at least.
>>274892091Also it probably won’t happen with (hopefully this year) Madoka and the new Dragon Maid Kanna movie, but what…?

>>274892159They do. I think this was just 5ch being contrarian because the show exploded in popularity on the normie circuits
>>274890370I'm shocked Subaru didn't make the cut.
>>274891838>So the trend your seeing is voting becoming more consolidated in the top titles.That's subtly different from what I assumed, but isn't the end result still that the biggest casuals who watch whatever is trending end up dominating the results?

>>274888006>WAOTS - Ore dake Level Up na Ken, with 32 votesOh come on!I'm not even trying to defend it but this feels like pure "popular with normalfags, therefore bad" case when we had worse shows last year.
>>274892036Ahh interesting, I wonder how many of the worst anime votes are /co/ watchers then, I never watched the series and just watched the anime as a 2deep4u enjoyerEternalism is a complicated concept, I remember having to read several pages about it just to fully understand it, guess the hate makes sense
>>274891838Scientists agree: Literally no one hates yaoi mecha.
>>274890370Subaru is the most popular girl in /a/, but GBCfans wanted to win in every category possible and the easiest way to achieve it was collectively voting for the MC.
>>274892223>>274892159
>>274891561The threads are pretty slow which means it's not getting subbed fast enough.
>>274892246Are there more fujos on our site than 5ch, I imagine that's like half of braverns audience
>>274892279Chainsaw Man also won WAOTY for it's year. People treat it as a shitpost category.
>>274892260Damn the GBC gap is massive.
>>274892348That was 100% earned though
>>274888097>mad yurishitters lmao
>>274892355almost like its botted or something
>>274892279It's the most hated show category.
>>274892279I vote for it because of HIM. Unironically HIS fault.
>>274891684I didn't, but only because there was too much competition. Nadeko is love and I want to see her grow up happy.
>>274892280It's a very simple love story told in such a haphazard way with the end result being that it didn't actually matter. You can psychoanalyze it anyway you want but it's ultimately meaningless if the show isn't rewarding to justify it. The original RM shorts were good because it basically utilized the shows setting and world building minus the cynical humor the anime just didn't have that charm.
>>274888778Fucking zoomers and their recency bias>>274888813Deserved, kinda>>274888846I want to fuck Subaru so I accept it>>274888890Based>>274888927/a/ is a TRIGGER board.
I liked dungeon meshi until the secound cour when it lost the plotLiterallyThey lost falin, who is a plot device, immediately after rescuing her in order to necessitate further delving into the meshiSecond cour was shit and boring and gayThe stregnth of the first half was not enough to override how poop it became. Not even the cat could save it
>>274888076>Most dropped show - Blue Archive The Animation, which lost 28 viewers, constituting 13.59% of voterslol
>>274892365Chainsaw Man wasn't the worst show of the year and you know it. The problem is that the actual really shitty shows nobody even watches so they barely get any votes. The category isn't taken seriously.
>>274892339Given the lack of BL anime and the abundance of moeshit I'll say the former or /a/ is just incredibly gay now.
>>274892260>29 位 72 先輩はおとこのこCould have been worse, the thread was relatively slow on 5ch.
>>274891715If you use anything other than Serenae's fork of mpv-webm, you're overthinking it.
>>274888260>>274889802The Girls Band Cry OST knocked it out of the park. Oshinko is one of the best everyday/casual themes in a soundtrack if you get what I mean.
>>274892022Is it yours? That is the case for the endless pile of generic forgotten shonen forgotten through the decades like Toriko,
>>274888752Pretty obvious this was going to win but no mention of Egumi Legacy anywhere makes me sad. To be fair we didn't even have threads for it
>>274891750Glad I dropped that. Not only because I avoided boredom, but also because no one will ever call me a pleb ever again.
>>274889309I only put down MahoAko and Shuumatsu Train because those were the only two anime I watched and liked this year. There just wasn't a lot of appealing stuff this year compared to last. I do regret not voting for Izumi Fuuka for best seiyuu because I was scared seeing a nobody voice a lead for an adaptation I was looking forward to, but she nailed it and I'm now watching her career with great interest.
Where's Blue Lock?
>>274892279Solo Leveling is pure slop and deserves that award. It's like a Narou isekai slop but for gooks.>>274892392Duel had an eternal boner when he banned people for shitting on SL
>>274892488The best aspect of that series.
>>274892557Only fujos watch that.
>>274891918Pretty sure they meant Utena Tenjou of Revolutionary Girl Utena fame because they're slow like that but that's ok because they have good taste.
>>274892557Not anime because it doesn't have animation.
>>274892461>beloved manga ruined by retard directorThe hate is too strong because of wasted potential. But yeah it's not so bad.
>>274892102Seconding this
>>274891834>>274892102Alright, here you go. The baby one is kinda hard to make out his expression too and Rudy already got to show up so I'll go with this.>>274891849It got a few honorable mentions, but they were all like "pretty good underwatched show" and it's hard to give a spot to that when other people are explaining why their nominee is unique and worth watching.>>274891918The votes of cheeky retards are forfeit. Follow instructions next time.>>274892170Doll was at the center of two arcs, Snake was only in one. Accept that it was a Doll season.>>274892188It did and it was 14th lowest ranking in this. Only beaten by those, Solo Leveling, Hand Shakers, and Aldnoah.Zero 2.>>274892254They amplify those shows, but the alternate metrics every year show that those popular shows are still the most popular even among the less casual viewers.
>>274891988Objectively the best marriage candidate for anons (M/F) who actually watched her show.
>>274892279>popular with normalfags, therefore badI think Solo Leveling is actually bad despite being popular with normalfags
>>274892557There's no category for best powerpoint presentation, so it wasn't eligible.
>>274892488The OST had a total of seventy-three (73) tracks, and only a handful were unusedMy personal favorite is this onehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PW5lTZ8MN18Played when Nina decides to be a brat and threatens to leave the band
>>274892648>best marriage candidate for anons (M/F)Do you mean Kumiko is the ideal wife for males and females? Because if so, I agree.
>>274892557Too many sideshow memes before it got to the last ep and a general distaste for normalfag sports
I don't really have much time for anime anymore. Life really catches up to you. Probably the last year I will have participated. It was fun /a/.
>>274892632>and Rudy already got to show upThe baby isn't Rudy, it's his daughter
>>274892279There are plenty of shows that are popular with normalfags that don't get this much hate. In order to get a lot of votes in the WAOTY category, it needs to draw the ire of /a/ in some way, and Solo Leveling certainly did that. I would even say its popularity is overstated. A lot of it feels artificial.
>>274892632>Accept that it was a Doll season.As someone who hated the second half, I wish it was, so I applaud your decision to promote best girl to thumbnail status.
>>274889453>Dungeon Meshi still wins in the hardest categoryFUARK
>>274892480Then I guess I will continue to overthink it.
>>274892721it's over

>>274892632This is /a/ cheeky retards are more representative of nonvoters and should count more
>>274892632You managed to ruin a beautiful chart that was 9 years free of One Piss trash.
>>274892820No one will watch s2 at this rate.
>>274888503>>274888530>>274888557Sad that there's no mention of Kimi ni Todoke. It was genuinely the best romance of the year. /a/ doesn't appreciate the classic romcoms anymore.

>>274889309Mahoakotards just botted the aoty chart, what a surprise.
As expected, most of my votes didn’t matter at all.Hoping to watch more of both old and new shows this year, because it's weirdly kind of embarrassing how few shows I've watched the last few years.At least this contest helps me decide which shows from my backlog to watch first.
>Dragon Ball Daiper won nothingI knew nobody liked that shiteNot even DBSfags with their massive thread who could have overwhelm the poll.
>>274892739arr rook same
>>274892632The baby isn't Rudy, it's his newborn daughter. Roxy pic is noticeably too dark

>>274892870Netflix dump killed it.
>>274888325>>274888358I guess I was in a bubble of good taste...
>>274892897>As expected, most of my votes didn’t matter at all.Same here. Guess it's mostly because one doesn't taken into account popularity when voting.
>>274892964Sad but true
Astro Note bros...
>>274892964And the fact that it came out over 10 years later
>>274892964>auto skips OPs and EDs>all episodes released at onesN*tflix has been a net negative for anime, holy shit
>>274890317>Nige Jouzu not even in the top 10Disgusting.
Only surprises to me here are the lack of love for Salad Bowl and Fable. Very forgettable year on the whole though.
>>274893000>Anime so bad the director apologized for itThat's what happens when you pander to trannies
>>274893053Most of /a/ didn't bother to vote.
>>274892897>As expected, most of my votes didn’t matter at all.Same, 3 out of my favorite 5 weren't even in the top 20 (going by points).At least Puniru got a good place all thungs considered.
>>274892914Most shonenfags in general are off-site faggots from Discords and the like. They don't care about these polls, which is why shonen stuff almost never ranks highly.
>>274888778>>274888927Absolute normalnigger taste holy shit.>>274888846>>274888890But /a/ is not all bad I guess...
>>274893053>FableNobody watched that anon and Salad Bowl made the Favorable mentions
>>274890317>Puniru and Bravern made it to the top 10If I ignore DDD being that high, it's an acceptable top 10.
>>274893065Did they really? I missed that.
>>274891521>>274892310It's because of Subaru that Nina didn't win. Subaru got 6 votes, Momoka got 1, and the remaining Toges didn't get any. Girls Band Cry did get more collective votes for best girl than Makeine.
>>274892461WAOTY is dominated by shows that raised high expectations but didn't deliver. The actual worst shows of the year are usually worse, but that's not reflected in polls because no one watched them.It makes more sense to treat WAOTY as "worst show /a/nons actually watched and discussed", which is arguably worse than creating something no one thinks about at all.
>>274893109https://www.cbr.com/astro-note-spring-2024-anime-series-apology/>Astro Note chief director Shinji Takamatsu took to X (formerly Twitter) to thank everyone who watched the series finale. "I'm really grateful to everyone who stayed with me until the end to watch this niche work that pays homage to '80s TV anime," he wrote. The show gained a cult following with its quirky premise and vibrant characters, but it also had its share of critics who noted its knack for carpet-bombing humor. Before the series finale, the Astro Note team acknowledged the show's limited reach and credited this to a lack of promotion; staff apologized to fans in an X post, along with an appeal for groundswell support.
>>274893053At least Salad Bowl made it to 10th place in the 5ch list
Solo Leveling is gonna win it this year for sure
>>274893138benis houga bros...
>>274892688>Do you mean Kumiko is the ideal wife for males and females? Because if so, I agree.Yes. Anyone (M/F) with properly developed taste wants to marry Kumiko.
>>274892968/a/ is overrun by normalfags and yuritards, the worst combination you can think of.

>>274893167>they got japanese hans zimmer to make the soundtrack for this gookslop
>>274892968In my case, it's mostly that I've had issues with low motivation and concentration for a few years, and it's kind of unpredictable what kind of non-sequel shows break through that barrier.Adaptations of manga I've read are the ones I skip over the most. No matter how good they look.>>274893087>PuniruOne of the shows that got added to my list. I was already curious about it, but now it might get prioritized early.

Are you willing to start a worst OP of the year category because Shangri La just dropped the worst of them all easy.
>went from 20th last cour to 13th this yearThe Calamity be in at least the Top 5 in 2025/6.
>>274891033>34>34>35That's not how rankings work. When there are 35 things ahead of something, it's in 36th place. Even if 2 of the things ahead of it tied.

setting up the google doc/spreadsheet might be finicky but have you guys ever thought about doing a final round with the top 10 using a pairwise comparison system? (assuming the results would be more "objective")
>>274892632>resident yurischizo obvious botting>loses anyways to Dungeon MeshiLmao, serves you right retard.
>>274889104Dungeon Meshi is still too high.
>>274893585I would also be happy if I got away with whatever the fuck I want, but that's not how things are.
I rarely watch anime on its airing year these days (only watched GBC, plus anime from 2022-2023), so I'm getting a lot of good recommendations to watch for this yearMight check out Orb and Makeine next while waiting for Ave Mujica
>>274893647Get away with what? Nina is not the one who was in the wrong about the bullying incident and how the school handled it.
>>274893368Can't wait for Ichigo's real true Bankai to get off-screen'd
>>274893364I just checked it, but Jesus Christ. What the fuck is that shit
>>274893585It was a good scene, but nothing impressive. Nina talking with her sister in that very episode is way better, and I still think it's not amazing enough to win scene of the season.
