4chan’s anime and manga image board “/a/” has organized its top 10 anime of 2014 into a convenient list, with the top spot surprisingly being taken by one of the year’s less respected shows – and the list bearing some similarities with 2chan’s top picks.
4. Parasyte
5. Fate/stay night: Unlimited Blade Works
6. Barakamon
7. Gochuumon wa Usagi Desu ka?
8. Space☆Dandy

I don't know WHERE the hell you got this list but it's NOT 4chan's top 10 list. 4chan's official list (which was posted on the 10) goes like this:
1. Barakamon
2. Amagi Brilliant Park
3. JoJo
4. Fate Stay Night: Unlimited Blade Works
5. Gochuumon
6. Tokyo Ghoul
7. Parasyte
8. Chaika
9. Fate Illya Prisma 2
10. Hanayamata
Ping Pong was removed from the list becasue people were voting on it ironically. Gekkan Shoujo Nozaki-kun came in 12th overall. And people HATED Space Dandy on 4chan.
Yes,.. this list makes more sense. But it's still missing No Game No Life, Zankyou no Terror and Mushishi to be believable.
OP here, I didn't know you speak for all of /a/, neo /a/
P.S your a faget.
they just cant handle how fabulous dandy is
>/a/
>ever agreeing on something
Ya, this is actually quite correct.
Ping Pong the animation was always there at top whenever there was anything of a "Best of 2014" thread.
Just like Boku no Pico will always be recommended if someone looks for a good anime.
OP did not deliver
This list is beta as fuck
Shit list
When it was announced, I mistook Ping Pong The Animation for the old slapstick/wtf comedy anime Ping Pong Club and kept my distance. But it's a nice suprise that I missed something of notice last year then. Probably the first time a Sankaku list has ever been helpful to me lol.
Well, 4chan IS known for their trolling abilities, so that does explains few things on this list...
My reaction wenn I saw the first place https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=umDr0mPuyQc
4chan seems to be really stupid xD
Can't believe the 2ch list didn't include Parasyte. That was the only show that was considered a Masterpiece for me. Pin Pong was good, but the stakes weren't the same.
um i believe it number 4 on there list
This was the 4ch list (western), not the 2ch (japanese) list. The 2ch list left off parasyte entirely.
I like this list, Space Dandy,
Amaburi, Parasyte, Barakamon and Gochuumon wa Usagi Desu ka? are on it. I agree with most of this.
worst list ever
pussys
No "Pico no Boku?"
I haven't used 4chan in years, probably 4 years now. Mainly down to the fact there's too many people posting on shit. Its like you make the effort to respond to something and within 10 seconds said post is buried on the 3rd or 4th page because so many people are posting.
It seems to be a reasonable list. I'm a little impressed that Reconguista in G didn't find its way though.
Anyway, no complains from my part! :)
Reconguista in G sucks. Japan agrees as it sold like shit.
that was one of the dumbest gundumb, go watch 00 or something.
Hipster: o great ;D
Love that Ping Pong won by a landslide, and that the top 3 shows actually are the best of the year
Is ping pong the animation that good? might check it out
It is fantastic, but yes, it requires a more refined taste.
Probably my favourite this year.
refined
heh
hehe
lmao
You think you're wine tasting?
yes! definitely deserves its spot at number #1
It really isn't.
the show is obviously meant for more nurtured minds
because in order to understand the show
you have to have a liking for storytelling, character development, cinematic visuals.
people who obviously couldn't grasp the show will simply tell you:
"It really isn't."
It's really not.
No, just people who like to feel superior to others will fool themselves into thinking this was any good.
Storytelling, character development and cinematic visuals matter jackshit if the story is crap and the characters unlikeable. Espescially if the show already looks like complete shit.
It looked gorgeous, and especially the quality of animation was superb.
The problem is, that this show actually tries to be art instead of a mass product, and this is not for everyone.
No, it's just like it's look like: shit.
Sure if you expected moe/harem shit, then yeah this was shit.
It's by far the most creative Japanese animated work of 2014
I think you're confusing this for Nishi-Ogikubo-eki Toho 20-bu 2LDK Shikirei 2 Kagetsu Petto Fuka.
nothing better than slightly above average listed there imo
Barakamon slightly above average... *shakes head in disgust*
Yes. It's slightly above average as far as seinen stuff goes.
Generic Pillar Woman A really doesn't represent Jojo well in the slightest. Let alone Stardust Crusaders which have nothing to do with their race.
This list is... good! Damn you /a/, I have shit taste just like you!
4chan: Gathering of Anon LOSERS!! So frelling stupid.
As much as I despise /a/, this list is not awful.
is 4chan still relevant?
Wow 4chan has garbage tastes
Did the shorts from the animator expo somehow not qualify for any of these lists? Some of them are damn good.
Haven't checked the new releases since early December, but 1st installment Dragon Dentist is my fav of them all by far. Like a cross of Last Exile and Seirei no Moribito. It felt like it would make an amazing 52 episode series.
Carnage could have been a lot better had they proved some more background.
Hill Climb Girl was pretty fun, except for the shitty animation. Kinda makes me wish Yowamushi Pedal had a female protag.
Anyway, as 7min shorts they can hardly compete against a full series in terms of enjoyment value.
They do have a very high rewatch value, though. Also.. I enjoyed some of them more than most series I watched. (And I watched thousands.) Especially Yamadeloid. That one just rocks every time I watch it.
Sure, one of these shorts might outdo any single episode of any recent anime, but the episodes add up (if you're enjoying the series in the first place, that is)... it's not a fair competition IMO.
I now totally feel like checking the new additions though.

Hope you aren't talking about that awful music video
