I actually don't know many of those. Ichigo, Naruto, HXH, Beelzebub, The one your avatar is from whose name I can't place.

Actuallty that is about half. I didn't really care much for asssassin classroom. I couldn't see the plot. The story is a bunch of kids trying to kill an unkillable god like monster.

Toriko (dude above Naruto) ranked in the top 3 for a while, and Kochikame (unibrow dude) is basically like Jump's Homer Simpson. I don't know a few of them, but my point was more just how many series have been replaced in such a short timeframe.

Assassination Classroom is different, but it's pretty great overall, and it gets more and more interesting as the background gets fleshed out. I never read the manga, but the anime will likely be my AOTY this year. 

I read Assassination Classrom for quite some time before putting it down. Koro-sensei isn't just an unkillable monster, he's also absolutely perfect in anything he ever tries and the manga grinds your face in that fact again and again. At first, I put up with it because it created some interesting dissonance for the characters, could they still kill him after all he has done for them personally? Despite the threat that he poses to the entire world? But then it started to drag as we were constantly informed just how amazing Koro-sensei is as he pulls new abilities and powers out of his ass any time he needs them.

The final straw was when it's revealed that Koro-sensei is not a villain and the 'destroying the world' thing is not by choice. No, of course he can't be a villain he's too damn perfect.
