Those wondering about the sudden (though perhaps not undeserved) surge in popularity of Kill Me Baby need look no further than the efforts of the Vippers in their “Let’s make Kill Me Baby Number 1!” thread – although that it managed to inspire such mischievous dedication is perhaps quite a recommendation in and of itself.
Meanwhile moeblob fanciers may just discount the top 3 as the result of vote-rigging otaku factions…

How about, Sankaku makes it's own chart? This will require some kind of voting system.
not by you Anonymous
Says the anon.
Why not? IP voting.
And that would be any less biased? I can already see it... #1 on every list possible would be cowboy bebop just cause.
Eh, I like COWBOY BEBOP but it'd be nowhere near my personal top 10, if that makes you feel better.
I mean, I post at SANKAKU COMPLEX, half my top 10 would be slice-of-life moeblobs.
What's the relation between sankom and moeblobs? Now, if you'd said loli related anime...
#1 Smile Precure
#2 Aikatsu!
#3 Death Note
#1 wold prolly be star trek: TNG
And you will be bitchin about it because K-ON is not #1
There will be bitching if K-ON isn't on the list.
They will bitch if K-ON is #1.
Yes, that would be definitely interesting.
Then compare the results with the AniDB and ANN scores!
IMO polls are the most missing feature here.
Joshiraku was best in 2012. There's no voting needed to figure that out.
What about Sankarea and Nazo no Kanojo X along with Dusk Maiden of Amnesia??
Shit
Shit
and more shit.
Try again.
I agree 110%! Sankaku needs to compile their own charts.
"SanCom's Top 50 Anime of 2012!"
Has a nice ring to it, doesn't it? :) It would be interesting to actually have charts to compare rankings like these.
well i stopped following the list a long time ago..
and yet u still come in and comment on it...
Sankaku sucks donkey balls
What's a wolf run ?
You suck Wolfrun's donkey balls!
this is a fuken troll list LOL
kill me baby~
Binbougami so low on the list, wtf?
And that shi-tastic pile of lame-osity 'Little Busters' is so high! This is no list, this is a mountain of crap.
Wait a second. Could it be? I bet this is a Chinese list, or maybe a list from those filthy Koreans.
where is TASOGARE OTOME AMNESIA? THE BEST OF 2012?!
I know, right?
I also enjoyed Sankarea and Nazo no Kanojo X.
Nazo no Kanojo X was the best I've seen in a LONG time. Fucking need more of it!
>Kill Me Baby
>best anything other than best boring letdown of the year
Worthless poll is worthless.
I loved Kill Me Baby. It's not in my top 5, but still I'm happy to see it at the top.
WTF? Have people seriously already forgotten everyone's favorite toothbrush incest anime, Nisemonogatari? Get it together, Japan!
So...I'm looking at this list and wondering...Where is Fate/Zero?
Accel World > Sword Art Online
That's all I have to say
That's like arguing which is better: shit or crap.
Accel World can die in fire.
this is actually true, although fanboys will disagree and trashtalk AW for the same and even more flaws SAO has.
If you say so. The whole Noumi arc in AW was incredibly painful to watch. AW was written later than SAO so it should have less technical problems. One of the main ones being that SAO was originally a short story resolved in the first book with a huge time skip. AW is linear and has time to properly build the narrative, characters, and their interaction.
at always that list make no sens.
is there a better site with interesting news from japan and insane stuff from china?
those endless stupid uninteresting posts of meaningless lists and cheap "xxx is playing with her pussy(cat)" is going on my nerves.
Yuru Yuri ♪♪
Binbougami-ga! and Sakura-sou no Pet na Kanojo ranking so low compared to some of the shit up there.
No Jormungand either!? As always polls are disappointing.
I agree no Jormungand!! List is almost Bullshit!!!
Jormungand is a cheap copy of Black Lagoon.
Jormungand > Black Lagoon
Because hardbody
4 panel manga as top of list.
all hope in humanity is lost since that retardenss is on top and jojos is so low
Jojo? Don't make me laugh! Bad anime adaptation.
Well, Azumanga was a 4 panel manga and was a great anime.
But, yeah. Kill Me Baby was crap.
man, i got a lot of anime to watch! stupid job, taking up so much time.
Oniai beat Acchi Kocchi? Faith in Japanese taste in anime: lost.
8. Sword Art Onlin (1131)
"Onlin"? xD
