Top 10 Summer 2010 Anime – Moe Domination

keionbu-by-h2so4.jpg

The “Minna de Kimeru” anime ranking for the best series to air during summer 2010 yields a list with a number of unexpected (some would say strange) entries, though of course there are no prizes for guessing which anime grabbed the top spot.

The ranking, with the average scores each received:

1. K-ON!! (4.44)

2. Giant Killing (4.35)

3. Heart Catch Precure (4.32)

4. Occult Gakuin (4.15)

5. Kaichou wa Meido-sama!

6. Strike Witches 2 (4.01)

7. Highschool of the Dead (3.98)

8. Mitsudo Moe (3.98)

9. Sekirei – Pure Engagement (3.97)

10. Amagami SS (3.93)

Anime fans will of course notice some notable omissions…

    Not how I expected it to look, but I can't complain... Other than Seitokai Yakuindomo isn't up there.

    Scoring or audience ratings are all pretty close. Mitsudomoe is one word and should be rated above HOTD - just because.

    Mitsudomoe was awesome. Short and cute and sickening levels of parody and misunderstandings. Came out of nowhere plus it was Bridge's first animation effort for a full series.

    "2. Giant Killing (4.35)"

    Holy crap. Is that GAR moe or something? lol

    And yeah, Precure this season was damn awesome. Quite possibly the best Precure season ever. Awesome animation and very charming characters and back to the old Dragonball style fights. Great stuff.

    Wonder how Giant Killing got 2nd place.
    The story is somewhat acceptable but their football is so lame that I dropped it in around the 13th episode.
    And K-ON? Pfffft.

    masturbate is a no-no word. Refined sankaku-patrons use another word to describe that particular occupation.

    I too am a little dissapointed that Seitokai yakuin wasn't up there..but HSotD and Occult Academy was..so I'm satisfied.

    Surprised HSotD is so high. QUALITY aside, something's wrong if you have to do a recap at episode 4. I think they were trying to do one chapter an episode, which is plain ridiculous. It would have been much better if they changed the pacing.

    He didn't say they didn't follow the manga, he said 1 chapter per episode was a stretch. Compare that with Bleach, which is strung out, yet fits more than 1 chapter/episode.

    Seitokai should replace Giant Killing. How can anyone prefer sweating football players over a horde of girls?

    Because just about every anime that's been coming out this last year are mindless fanservice shows about hordes of girls with storylines that make no fucking sense.

    Not really considering if you pull up the line up you'll find at least half of them aren't moe or fanservice centered.

    Haha, calm down 15:59 - you're speaking nonsense. What Actar said (or perhaps implied) is more along the line of 'Someone who has not watched an anime must not judge it'.

    Surprised to see Giant Killing in such a high position, but it deserved. This anime is awesome...

    But obviously this doesn't reflect the fushoji opinion, in the Newtype Romantica edition of October, they pick up K-ON!! at 1st (YES, K-ON!! it's success both with males and females), second by their bishounen loved animes like Kuroshitsuji II, Sengoku Basara Ni and Nurarihyon no Mago.

    As much as I like Yuri action, it's funny when people are serious when they say K-ON! has lesbians.

    Next up.. Kamina and Simon are OTP.

    now thats a lie Japanese otakus hate lesbians so much they have a need to include a penis in EVERYTHING for exsample even though k-on takes place in an ALL girls school and only 2 boys have ever been shown 90% of dojinshi of k-on have had gang rape or straight sex in it, same apply's to most 100% "we dont want guys in here" anime and manga series, Japanese otaku will find a way to get the penis in there

    ... so, where's the problem?

    Maybe you fail to understand that yuri sex simply isn't as appealing to the artists as straight sex, due to it's inherent emptiness only fillable by a penis... although I do see why you're getting butthurt about this.

    Then how does that explain the Japanese girls love community?
