2017 looks better

Not according to this list though, the majority of shows here either fell flat or never really took off.

I think as of right now it's the worst, but once we get all the movies and shit I'll probably consider it a good year.
Basically no good TV but some very exciting movies.

2011 was a better year than 2013 or 2014. To be fair, I think we are blessed, there are so many good shows being made since 2010/2011, I really can't why so many people can complain so much.

It was a good year for shorts with Wonder and the Japan Animator Expo stuff, though the best of those aired in the next year. Besides that we had no new good shows besides Space Dandy, Ping Pong and Shirobako.
>>
>>150037498
The only one that will be talked about in 5 years is Anne Happy, because I will be talking about it, the rest it's just a hit of the moment kind of series, half of those are already forgotten by now.

Sure, if you exclude Kaguya-hime, Kyousougiga, Kill la Kill, Monogatari 2nd Season, the best Mirai shorts, Gatchaman Crowds, Shashinkan and Airy Me.

Yes, there it is, the "I like it because it's fun" rational. You're unable to articulate what makes these supposed "better" shows worthwhile in comparison to the likes of Rakugo.
>>
>>150038488
If it's good, people will watch. How it's getting a S2 I will never understand.
>>
>>150038533
What, Rakugo? It sold well.
>>
>>150038480
Not everything's an argument you weiner. I shared my opinion, you talked shit so I throw it right back. Fact of the matter is I've seen all the shit you enjoyed and didn't think it was all that great. Keep crying "shit taste" if it makes you feel better.

So fucking what? It objectively is great. You spewing your baseless opinion around doesn't change that.

That aside, why are you so upset? Are you that bothered that someone out there might ask for better?

No, it actually considers the fact that it is single cour, and crams as much of everything, character interaction, exposotion, foreshadowing, etc as it possibly can into each ep to make sure that it ends up feeling fulfilling by the end.Unlike all these 12 episode shows that keep being shat out which move at a snail's pace, are filled with filler that's completely irrelevant to the plot at hand, and end up not properly explaining anything and feeling utterly lackluster by the end.

>>150039648
ReLife was painfully mediocre. The drama sucked and was driven entirely by one dysfunctional side character and none of the romances were interesting.

It would have been decent if it had kept up the fun school times of the earlier episodes, but every attempt to escalate fell flat.

Best of the year is either Rakugo or Flip Flappers (depending on whether the latter fucks up its second half or not). Runner ups are Mob Psycho, New Game, and Flying Witch.

Mob - Good 7/10.

Kizu - Underwhelming as hell considering how long the wait was 6/10
Rakugo - Good 7/10.
Flip Flappers - Only the animation is good,everything else is terrible 4/10

Luluco - Terrible 3/10

Flip Flappers is really bad though. Its a Mayoiga flavored forced meme but less likely to suffer backlash
>>
>>150048210
It's a cute show with good drawings with deepshit assigned to it by some weird westerners that are projecting.
That's not comparable to Mayoiga at all, which was trying hard to be all subterfugey from day 0.

I really need to finish Tonkatsu that shit was pretty entertaining.

What surprised me most was Yuri on Ice, It's pretty gay but its interesting enough to overwrite it.


Rakugo AOTY.
Mob Psycho 2nd.


Amanchu definitely doesn't deserve to be on that list, Replace it with 91 days/Joker Game/Sansha Sanyou/Sakamoto.

Your definition of a "good" year is having a lot of mediocre TV anime?
>>
>>150053837
If you like those shorts there's no way you would think Mob or FlipFlapprs are mediocre.

Mob Psycho is ok. Flip Flappers is the epitome of TV anime mediocrity.

Pretty much this. There are some enjoyable and fun titles in the other seasons, but an awful lot of mediocrity. Fall has at least a couple of shows that are surprising and entertaining.

Though I haven't seen Rakugo an Mob Psycho, I recognize the acclaim both have received thus far. I'm okay with trusting a 'wisdom of crowds' if the crowd is sufficiently large and varied, which is true here.
>>
>>150053954
Katasumi ni is the best feature film this year, but I guess you just want to brag about having seen one of them.

How do you stay up to date with shorts? I follow Nishikata eia but so far she hasn't done anything on 2016 short features.

>>
>>150054085
I do have high hopes for it, but Koe no Katachi seems likely to be the better of the two.
>>
>>150054000
Rakugo is tough, it's probably the most serious show in a while and also has gay undertones so a lot of people just won't find it entertaining. The character writing is stellar though.

Mob Psycho is the polar opposite, it's sub-mediocre ONE "my body is made of fighting shounen" writing paired with an amazing webgen animation showreel.
>>
>>150054588
How was the character writing stellar? Felt like nearly everything in that show was built out of clichés.
>>
>>150054622
That's something you can say about any writing if you want to so it's not an argument. Execution matters.
>>
>>150054670
Not necessarily, but I didn't think that was anything special either, obviously

Rakugo is alright, but it's fairly dry and I think the weak character art and animation doesn't sell it as well as it could.
>>
>>150055596
Yeah it clearly needed exaggerated movements (aka "character "acting"") in every scene or pew pew action scenes like in my sakagu shows
>>
>>150055596
While you're not wrong, I thought the art and animation was for the most part perfectly serviceable. I'd sooner criticize other aspects.
>>
>>150055708
What is wrong with you?

>>150055791
The art/animation is what stuck in my mind most, especially compared to the manga which has much more appealing art. Serviceable, in my opinion, isn't good enough.

Might have to update this if I have enough time to watch some stuff I missed by the end of the year.
Haven't seen Satie yet but it seems like a safe pick considering the reception.

>>150058841
Wait until Geidai uploads their shit sometime next year.
>>
>>150059427
I have the DVD.
Just wish Tamabi and other universities and ICAF released some too.

Other than that, I think the only things from 2016 I want to see and can't now are Satie, Monstropedia and Jungle Taxi.
>>
>>150031441
Not for me at all, I want to kill myself but I am afraid if I do whatever happens in the afterlife will be worse then what is happening to me now. That is why I haven't killed myself yet. Even if what Atheists say is true and nothing happens when you die, that is still worse then the torture I face now. If Hell exists then I can't risk going to it by killing myself.

Glad I'm being honest with myself and you guys.

Who said it, mr. expert in retardness?

Summer 2016 for 91 Days, because unlike mob psycho which runs on Hype Train of One Punch success that was original work. Amaama to Inazuma definetly better than Mob Psycho and deserve honour mention.

Spring 2016 was probably best season of 2016: Joker Game, Sakamoto, Re: Zero, Kabaneri, Boku no Hero, Bungou Dogs.

Fall 2016 3-gatsu no Lion, Fune wo Amu, Drifters, Nanbaka, Hibike 2 and fuck me, but Yuri on Ice good enough.

First part of Winter 2016 is complete shit. Second part of Winter 2016 yet to come, but it seems that it's going to be horrible shit.

This.

Of the first 3 seasons only Concrete Revolutio S2 was genuinely good.
Then there was Ajin S1, which was controversial because of 3D but with a good story and great characters. Also Re:zero as an enjoyable guilty pleasure, but very forgettable and with annoying female characters "Take me as your waifu anon!".
I haven't watched Rakugo though.

Aside from that it was a lot of mediocre and average shows. Autumn has really saved 2016.

>>150061002
Try watching Concrete Revolutio. S2 is serious contender for AOTY, it's not a masterpiece but it's great.
>>
Season 4 of Highschool DxD? Also, hyped for trinity 7 movie if thats true.
>>
>>150061841
First part of Winter 2016: 1 January 2016 - February.

How familiar are you with 20th century history or japanese pop-culture?

If you're 30 or older, you'll probably understand almost everything and love it. If you're a tokufag or enjoy old japanese movies it'll feel like it was made for you. If you've read about structuralism in college then it'll feel like all of your useless theoretical bullshit actually has an application.

Otherwise it might take some additional reading to reorient yourself when you get lost. Fortunately the airing threads did a great job of compiling media and history references into images and pastebins. You can probably find them archived.
>>
>>150064458
The 3 or 4 first eps are a mess because they tried a silly non-chronological storytelling and fucked it up. Bones being Bones, they always have to fuck up something.
But after that it's okay, so yes.

It definitely would have been better with a chronological storytelling though (save for the MC past and a few other things that works well as a flashback).
>>
We saw our Lord Sakamoto in animated form. It also had cast of the year.
