    Soooo where is eureka 7 ao where is chuunibyou demo , I like Btooom better than highschool DxD and Hyouka. What about [K] which is by far the most beautiful anime this year with zetsuen no tempest a close second. why is sankarea on here i mean the first few episode where good but it decided it wanted to become a loose harem later on. if sankarea can be here the Kore wa zombie? of the dead could be here to and that anime is better than sankarea. why is Inu x Bokku here i prefer sakurasou no pet kanojo and tonari no kaibutsu over this excuse for a comedy. chuu2 made me laugh more in the few episodes it had than the entire season of inu x boku. and oh yeah WHERE THE FUCK IS THE SECOND SEASON OF FATE ZERO GODDAMN DICK RIDING MOFOS SAO IS CLICHE AS FUCK BUT WHEN A GOOD ANIME LIKE FATE/ZZERO AND K AND BTOOOM ARE STARING YOU IN THE FACE YOU STILL CHOOSE THE OVERLLY CLISHE CRAP. that is all

    K (the most beautyiful anime i’ve ever seen animation wise just watch HOMRA VS SCEPTRE 4 *THE FIRST LINK ON YOUTUBE*)
    Btooom
    Zetsuen no Tempest
    Chuunibyou demo koi ga shitikai
    Sakurasou no pet na kanojo
    Tonari no Kaibutsu kun
    Daily Lives of highschool boys
    Kokoro connect

    yet you insist on putting sankarea, High school dxd and hyouka on this list -____- and seriously kuroko’s basketball is LESS ENTERTAINING THAN HYOUKA AND HIGH SCHOOL DxD

    people always complaining there is no good anime but you are the people that chooses what become popular and what will remain unknown.

      all the credit. And i’m not saniyg what we do is anything remotely compared to what the anime makers do. did i? what i’m saniyg is that we should at least get a tiny bit of credit for producing these animated music videos and gaming music videos that are even half decent. because we put a lot of hard work into it too.

      excuse me? Kuroko no Basuke is also entertaining. Heck I love it for the awesome skills they have and the characters. Because, the anime doesn’t just focus on one team for the whole freaking season. You’ve got Seirin, Kaijou, Shuutoku and later on there’s Touou and somehow you start getting attached to them all. The characters have real emotions in them (wow how many times do we see the characters cry, like these are real men because they cried) and heck, where do you find a main character of a basketball anime that’s completely useless at it except for passing the ball. That’s one unique main character in my opinion. You’ve got your teamwork, standing up for what you believe in no matter what, being more mature, growing up and wow so many things I love about this anime. I will stop now and just so you know, I still respect your opinion 🙂 And I hope you respect mine.

    Seriously guys!
    Read the TITLE!
    Read the TOPIC!
    And Analyze before you say anything! haha!

    I know you guys have your own top listings and sh*t.
    Just keep your top 10 to yourselves if you know
    that you are not on the same page as everyone.

    I honestly respect everyone’s opinion about their top 10 list but please do not say any stupid things which are outside the topic.

    Is it possible that you might be able to make anime lists of
    Top 10 Fantasy/ 1 all time 1 recent
    Top 10 Magic/ 1 all time 1 recent
    Top 10 supernatural/ 1 all time 1 recent
    That would be amazing. Thanks for your time.
