I'm not offended by any of those, I'm just saying you probably don't watch a lot of anime if that is your map of what caused a strong impression in the past years. It's literally a guide to modern anime for western casuals. You only forgot Kill la Kill.

I would've said 2016 was isekai trash with a blue haired maid who wasn't actually all that great

I'm not OP, but I thought that was what he was purposefully going for.

Who the fuck was watching yaoi on ice? I watched the first five episodes and its so phenomenally boring that I had to drop it.
Plus, it hasn't affected the "culture" of /a/ at all, unlike everything else mentioned.

Correction:
>the biggest phenomenon of 2016 was some NEET fucker dying in another world

Yaoi on ice is just trending now because it just ended, and it didn't had to compete with any of the big ones from 2016.

I didn't knew Madoka had a microwave.

>>152155708
What is this? For western casuals?

Literally the biggest thing in 2016 was god damn Keit-Ai and sure let's give YoI the slightest bit of credit.
2011 is Madoka.
2012 was GuP.
2013 was probably Shingeki with Love Live as an afterthought.
2014 however was most definitely Love Live S2.
2015 was Osomatsu-san.

7/10 got me to post OP. Fucking cockmongler.

Actually, I'd argue 2012 was F/Z.

>>152155747
>yandere loli

>>152156920
The fanbase praises it like few others do, but it wasn't really that big.

>>152156983
The success of the recent GuP movie was still fresh in my head even if it was months ago so I tend to forget. Was F/Z bigger in 2012? When was Nise? Fucking whatever.

OP is a fag.

It's okay, anon, 2011 was a pretty good year.

By what kind of metric is this going by, because you certainly aren't gauging by sales numbers, most watched on popular western anime sites or even highest scored. You're just going by some weird, ass backwards nebulous metric of what you feel was the it thing based on whatever circles you're apart of, I guess.

>>152155778

I am not talking about the non-existing anime though, especially because if it existed, Hisui would have played a very minor role in it.

>>152156732
ReZero never reached out of "the anime "community'" like YoI did. This is a list of gateway anime. (Though Tokyo Ghoul shouldn't be on it)

Steins;gate was absolutely not as big as Madoka.

I don't even know what this is supposed to be, but it doesn't sound like Love Live.

>>152155708
2016 is probably konosuba. I don't see how YOI was any bigger than Free or that basketball show.

>>152161137
/a/ now has Trigger synonymous with Shitposting. It doesn't matter what show it is now. And since that's the case we need a KLK movie
