| Super_Boom said: Gonna put together my yearly summary table...gonna feel more anti-climactic than my usual gif posts, but I don't want to do two in close succession. Here goes!
I'll do my final list for the year sometime in the next few days. Unless I'm busy. |
Alright! Finally finished my last few Fall anime, so I can make my year-end post in good conscience (despite me already posting my seasonal thoughts above...but whatever).
Final thoughts aren't much different from what I've been saying until now, which is obvious I guess. Imouto Sae ended in usual LN adaptation fashion, but was enjoyable overall. Blend-S was a cute show, a shallow one, but still a nice watch. I'd like both of these get second seasons...but we'll see. Also recommend that Net-juu OVA, for anyone that stopped watching at episode 10.
Kekkai Sensen was well animated, but overall...probably had the biggest shift from initial hype to only mild interest towards the end. The final arc was good, and it was overall well-animated, but with the standard tone being comedic or completely random, it was hard to really get invested in the conflict, or care about most of the characters. I guess you could compare this anime to a Marvel movie, for better or worse.
Anyways, here's my overall thoughts for the year. A LOT OF GIFS AND IMAGES INCOMING, BE WARNED.

Overall, really solid year. Lots of continuations that kept my interest, and new anime that either surprised or disappointed, but overall I enjoyed it. Let's hope 2018 can top it....seems like most of my top shows are getting continuations, so I'd be surprise if it's not at least on par with this year.
Finally...thanks to everyone who keeps posting here despite the constant change in management, radio silence, and relatively few people that post here in the first place. You all rock, and I hope you all stick around.
Except for Cloud. That guy sucks.
Edit: Updated my top 5
