Thats more a "YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" rather than a "Wooow".
these polls are getting worst.... they're just random anime titles now....
At least there's no K-On in this ranking... <_<
Exciting enough to make you scream in agony :3
Epic win.
Once you see it, you can never go out on the street again without screaming YOOOOO!!!! each time you notice an underage boy.
Or three.
YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Whut duh fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck!!!!??
Is one of your friend's names coco?
Sounds like what I was saying the other day when I was talking to my white friends.
This guy knows what he is talking about
nuuu nuuuuuu
How is Ano Hi Mita Hana exiting? It makes you cry, not go WOOOOW. It's like fans don't even read the name of the ranking, they just hype their favorite anime.
Hidan no Aria? You gotta be kidding me....
Shiki is much better than some in the list
thank goodness K-On!! wasn't here too.. >_>
Amen @ 03:42,
DIAF @ 04:00
K-ON should be there
k-on is a dead byproduct!!!! people will soon forget it!
nooooooooooooooo Death to K-on
I think we should do our own list on Sankaku Complex.
1. Code Geass
2. Death Note
3. Hellsing OVA
4. Clannad AS
5. Phantom 2
Yea, appearantly, people only remember 3 scenes from Madoka thus making it exciting.
I dunno FMP! or Clannad were 'exciting', but sure loved the story. Other than that, I can agree to some extent on the rest.
FMP was exciting I would think. At least that first episode was seriously action-packed, as well as hilarious. Clannad being 'exciting' I'm wondering if something is lost in translation. Like it should be 'engaging' instead of 'exciting.'
I just started High School of the Dead last night. And I am beyond surprised it's not here while something like Clannad is.
My thoughts exactly...
In fact, this list makes no sense at all.
I'm not saying this because my favourite anime isn't on the list but rather because comedy and drama animes ARE NOT EXCITING. I love them, I truly do. But Clannad doesn't have me sitting on the edge of my seat in anticipation as Higurashi or Madoka would.
For the first, and hopefully last time, I'll say this.
Fail list is epic fail.
Clannad did have me on edge a few times, but for different reasons. I personally don't see the problem with considering dramatic level tension and action level tension in the same vein, but that has to be clearly delineated to make sure the people recognize that for these lists. For example you mention Higurashi. Higurashi wasn't action, but suspense, which isn't necessarily 'exciting' by its definition.
So it's just such a vague list that it doesn't mean anything.
i am kind of pissed, excellent animes are ranked very low, and as always Madoka is on the first spots. really Madoka wasn't that good. it was interesting yes but it's nothing much than that, it was too short to be really
considered that big a deal.
Madoka does indeed deserve a high rank. Don't mistake the shortsightedness of these fools taking these polls with complete blindness. They recognize enjoyable shows as enjoyable shows, they just have the memory of fleas.
Madoka was an exceptional example of creativity mixing things up in a generally stagnant genre. The witch realms being metaphorical IDs of a sort was a wonderful artistic choice to me. If it gave your eyes cancer, then the problem is with your eyes.
The ending was not horrible because of what happened, but because it didn't really have any closure, which was the issue with most anime anyway. It's their annoying method of saying 'possible new season, but usually never.' Ascending to higher consciousness when you have enough energy is actually how reality works. In case you don't realize, that's how our bodies and minds function as well, just using different words to describe it.
The plot being average I will agree with. Ironically they took an excellent concept and didn't really expand on it enough. I'm hoping for more so they can do so.
But again, don't blame the animes themselves for the shortsightedness of the poll takers.
Second that.
I watched 12 episodes of Madoka in one go, and my thought, it's been unnaturally high ranked.
The OP and ED songs aren't good at all, I passed them every time.
The plot is average. (some wacko alien who's seeing human as mere livestock!)
The ending is horrible. (it would be much better for Madoka to has honorable death rather than turning into some unclear entity)
The battles are totally silly! The witches and their goons are just in the form of kid's scribble who have unclear shape, unclear ability, unclear attack pattern, and more.
The art gives me eyes cancer....
I hope they learn from Hoshizora e Kakaru Hashi (for the art)
25. Yosuga no Sora
"Woooow he's still thrusting!!"
"Wooow! How did those black fogs appear on my screen! And they cover the parts I want to see most too!"
Gintama Banzai!!!
*brofist
These polls are getting more and more ridiculous, Ano Hana 5th?? It doesn't even have action scenes.
1. Gurren Lagann.
no death note?
does my eyes starting to go bad,
or does tiger & bunny really got 1st place?
cause i found it unbelieveable. sorry and no offense to the fans.
Holy shit, a list that isn't 90+ percent jackoff fuel.
Is Tiger & Bunny really that good
I think we should do our own list on Sankaku Complex.
Why would they care for hairy barbarian opinions?
what the fuck is up with tiger and bunny ? thats one of the worst animes i have seen
Clannad is amazing.....but Thirlling? Exciting?! Not quite...
Tiger & Bunny beating out Code Geass LOL?
GTFO, it doesn't even come close.
WHAT~!!! NO DEATHNOTE~!!!??
Half these shows aren't even a YEAR OLD. As usual, the Japanese show the attention span and intelligence of a fruit fly in discussing anime.
This poll made me go "Wooow!!"
for how shitty it fucking is
hmm.. no ToraDora?
the list is all jumbled up :P
