A survey of Japanese women provides an interesting snapshot of what their favourite anime of 2010 spring were, and what they are looking forward to in the summer 2010 season. Some rather surprising choices make their way into the rankings…
The best of the spring 2010 season, based on a survey of 2,285 Japanese female anime fans:
1. Hakuouki
2. K-ON!!
3. Arakawa Under The Bridge
4. Ookiku Furikabutte
5. Hetalia Axis Powers
6. Kaichou wa Meido-sama!
7. Angel Beats!
8. Working!!
9. Uragiri wa Boku no Namae wo Shitte Iru
10. Keroro Gunsou (7th season)
The high placing of K-ON!! is perhaps something of a surprise – moeblobbery evidently knows no gender bounds.
The most awaited anime of summer 2010:
1. Nurarihyon no Mago
2. Kuroshituji II
3. Sengoku Basara 2
4. Shiki
5. Digimon Xros Wars
6. Ookami-san to Shichinin no Nakama-tachi
7. MonHun Nikki Poka Poka Airu Mura
8. Tono to Issho
9. Sekirei ~Pure Engagement~
10. Seitokai Yakuindomo
The presence of second tier oppai anime Sekirei on this list is something of a mystery…
A similar ranking supplied by Dengeki readers, presumably mostly male, may be interesting to compare against.

sengoku basara 2 is one of the most anticipated? holy shit someone has taste.
wow another Digimon series?? very unexpected, and must watch
Hetalia, fuck YEAH.
Women sure love Hetalia. So much implied gay sex with cute ethnic boys
where's drrr!?
yeah, can't understand this... I heard that some characters of Durarara are VERY popular among the girls... like Shizuo and Izaya...
it would've been in the season before since i think they only counted the anime that started airing in the last season
In regards to 'Sekirei~'.. it's all about the boob envy!
haha fujoshi also love k-on
Women watch K-On! and think:
"Aww, these little girls are adorable. I wish I had that good friends too, I felt so lonely in high school... ahh, now I can relive my days of youth with K-On! The musical themes are nice too, I once dreamed of starting a band myself."
Men watch K-On! and think:
"I wish to stick it to mai waifu's pooper Mio-chan kawaii desu ;__; I'll go buy a horridly expensive figurine so I can fap to it and live with my 2d woman for life! Azunyan the perfect loli would surely love a perverted, lonely neet such as myself!"
I'm a girl and I adore K-ON so much. It's my favorite anime and I have about 10 figures on my desk of them
i'm straight, but the moeblobbery is too much
I'm impressed , no HOTD ! BAD TOP !
i guess japanese women doesn´t like pantsu and zombies.....
HOTD sucks. There's no plot whatsoever.
The only good Hakuoki episode was the funsub of the first episode.
Too bad they took it off.
Tried watching the actual show but it made me sleepy.
Go to the toilet, sit on the throne and watch it again. Will not bore you:)
yay~! Hakuouki was number #1
Arakawa was a giver, but K-ON!! surprised me because I thought it's be all moe-moe for the guys
How in the (digi)world is that Digimon series name pronounced?
Hey, I personally know a few girls that were nuts over K-ON. One even drew tonnes of doujin fanart of the HTT girls.
The executive producer of K-ON, Yoshida Reiko, IS a woman after all, so I guess she should know what sort of moe pushes the buttons of both males and females.
Female here, and I have to say, I'm a tad disappointed with these lists.
Only things I can agreen on are K-ON!! and Sengoku Basara 2.
... I'm a guy and I'm more amazed at those people who are amazed at the list, and "WHY NOT !?" "women liek moeshit?"
As for me, as I look at the list... Oh, understandable. How perfectly understandable.
Well, I was waiting for Nurarihyon no Mago
Night Rikuo <3
some woman want bigger tits probably
some women want other women with bigger tits.
i knew hakuouki would be no.1
they love the story of tokugawa shogun period, more than the warring state period, like bassara.
it's the concept of the shinsengumi well that and even though I never saw Hakuouki probably a bunch yaoi pairs just waiting to be made.
well, it's more on otome than yaio.
females also makes a pair out of female protagonist and bunch of guy characters there
I'm surprised Durarara wasn't on there, considering it's full of men.
Durarara was a winter series
Ookiku Furikabutte scoring so well makes me inner fangirl pleased.
I thought it would score higher. Oofuri is really popular in Japan, even if it's unpopular in the western countries.
If it scored any higher, lord knows the other fanbases would be green with envy and rage.
I disagree, Hakuoki sucked big !
This season is pretty much boring anyway apart from a few exceptions.
What, they weren't expecting High School of the Dead?!
Surprising!
Another surprise: K-ON! on the list? If it wasn't for Mio, then K-ON! would have never been on the list.
Oh please. Everyone but Mio makes me go gay.
Really? The fact that its a funny show with girls doing girly stuff that probably relatable for a lot of them isn't enough reason for women to like K-On?
Exactly; I don't get why it should be so surprising that most female otaku love moe. Girls like cute things. Duh.
"A survey of Japanese women" - means a list of animes you should stay away from - besides "Angel Beats K-ON!!" :)
I can't disagree more alex. A ton of those shows are actually very fun to watch and Hakuoki is actually pretty well made and Ookiku Furikabutte is honestly one of the most accurate portrayals of the sport of baseball in a fiction I've ever seen.
Arakawa under the bridge was very funny. I look forward to a 2nd season...
You know, alex, the fact that you don't understand the meaning behind something doesn't make it stupid. Actually, it's the other way around.
Haters got to hate ?
Dora: Hater, no hating.
Hater the Disgruntled Man: Aww, drats.
Yeah, because it's a list of stuff that'll mostly exclude pointless moe crap.
Hetalia ended up spawning a legion of fangirls so why am I not surpised?
Same applies to Black Butler, though the fangirls aren't nearly as retarded.
Yeah this is checking out to be pretty boring.
I approve of Ookami-san
It looks like it has potential.
With Shizuka Itou, it's already approved. ^^
