Atvrcr has invited me to participate in his list making fun for the end of the year. And since today's the 21st, that means it's time to post about my favorite anime of 2010! Now, there's some things you should note before I reveal what my favorite anime of the year is. First, remember that this is my opinion and that it does not reflect the combined views of the Atv-Oni-Ota team. And Second, this is MY opinion and I accept challenging comments, praising comments, and bashing comments all with a happy face. With that out of the way, let me reveal my favorite anime of the year!
You may be wondering what anime I've even watched over this year. So, I've compiled a list for you, the readers, so that you can see what I'm gauging by. Since, of course, I can only work with the shows I've actually watched. Here is that list:
Angel Beats!, Baka to Test to Shoukanju, Chu-Bra!!, Dance in the Vampire Bund, Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood, Hanamaru Youchien, K-On(Incomplete), Koihime Musou, Ladies versus Butlers!, MM!, Occult Academy, OreImo, Panty and Stocking with Garterbelt, Shinryaku! Ika Musume, Sora No Woto, Soredemo Machi wa Mawatteiru, Toaru Majutsu no Index, Tantei Opera Milky Holmes, Working!!, and The World only God Knows.
Now, on to the winner of Onion's Favorite Anime of the year!
LADIES VERSUS BUTLERS!
I know what you're thinking. "How could Onion let a fan service show win?" Am I right? That's because I'm psychic. It's also because that's what everyone says when I tell them how much I loved the show. However, I tell them, Ladies Versus Butlers is not a fanservice show in the original sense.
I watched every episode of this series, and every episode I was laughing to the extent of stomach pain. I remember one time My laptop almost fell to the ground. From the very first scene, which you remember is the scene with Selnia being thrown to the ground and groped, I knew that this show was going to be a winner. And it was.
None of the fan service ever seemed like it was forced to me. Make no mistake, it was there, but each episode had it's own plot that completely overshadowed the fan service which kept it from becoming the main focus.
All of the characters had puni puni faces and were loveable. It's just an all around great show, and that's why I've awarded it my Favorite Anime of the Year Award.
Runner Ups
Here's a list of the shows that I had lumped together with Ladies Versus Butlers when I was trying to decide on the definite winner. None of these shows should be passed up:
2. Panty and Stocking with Garterbelt
3. Working!!
4. Hanamaru Youchien
Leave some comments! If you think I'm crazy, let me have it! If you agree with me, let's be friends! Thanks for viewing everyone!
Worst Anime of 2010
(Remember, this is out of the shows I watched)
Dance in the Vampire Bund
I didn't particularly hate any of the shows I watched, but out of all of them, I liked Vampire Bund the least. It's sort of in part because of Shaft's crappy style, and the stupidity of the entire show's delivery. I was bored by the time I reached the end of the series, and I can't even remember the ending. I was probably half asleep. Also, the loli transforming into a woman didn't exactly help to get me focused. But the show did have a nice opening theme.
