How is that not an asshole

Best Animes for 2015
One Punch Man
Overlord
Asterisk
Souma

Best Thing that Nobody Watched of 2015
Not sure

Most Surprising of 2015
Overlord - Don't watch that much Anime, and I tend to like trash battle harems that are about determination and friendship, so the brutal/evil tone of Overlord was pretty refreshing.


Stockholm Syndrome Award for 2015
Danmachi was alright, had some good fights with a nice OST


Worst anime that I wasted time on of 2015
Sakurako though I dropped it Ep.9 or whatever
In hindsight also Rokka - a ok game of Mafia ruined by terrible girl Flemy

Best Anime Season of 2015
Whatever this one is

Best Female Characters of 2015
Alice - Souma
Stella - Cavalry
Claudia - Asterisk
Ohtori - 35th
Suginami - 35th

Julis from Asterisk gets an honourable mention


Best Male Characters of 2015
Saitama - OPM
Ainz - Overlord
Genos - OPM because he's such a jobber for comedic value

My own category (why isn't this a thing?)
Best OST of 2015

No idea, Gate? I think people watched that too.

Most Surprising of 2015

OPM, I thought an anime/manga about an overpowered protagonist would be hella boring, I was wrong on so many levels.

Stockholm Syndrome Award for 2015
Probably one of the million terrible battle harems that I watched.

Lol Toad, S2 has the girl that would probably appeal to you.

She's the only "normal" one in the cast.

To be fair, I was a bit exaggerating. The people in the show ARE either assholes or idiots but I was a defender of Tarou in Shirobako as well. As long as I don't get the idea that they're being assholes out of ill intentions, on purpose, I don't really mind it that much. It's just how they are, can't help it. So prepare yourself for it and be fine with it.

It's just that unlike Shirobako in this show it's literally every single one being that way that should probably drive MC-kun insane but he's an idiot as well so really can't complain. Even Souma who's probably the closest to a genuine Asshole out of them all... he's doing it to have some fun and so that Inami doesn't punch HIM I guess... and while that's certainly not a great attitude to have it's not really the 2nd comming of Hitler either. Also, there's always the Chef. What a bro he is.
Only mentioned this in irc but remember last episode? So they want to go on aforementioned date with him crossdressing and the 2 that drenched him + one + chef follow him and the two assholes/idiots basicly want to keep following MC, right? So Chef promises to buy them food so that the date at least happens without them interfering from that point. What a guy. Totally mancrush right there.

I am watching s2 nontheless because duh, Asumi Kana. Rated it at 5/10 I think?

Season 3 of working was imo much better than the previous two seasons.

So apparently Berserk gets a new adaption in 2016. As far as I'm aware the old adaption (series) adapted the "whole" manga and butchered the ending? I might wait for the new adaption then in hopes that it will be a proper one and watch instead of the old one.

Also, P.A. Works is apparently working on a mecha, lol. I'm actually interested to see how their mecha animation looks since their general animation standards are quite high.

The original adaption just adapted the first arc of the manga and kind of did the very ending a bit poorly. There's still a lot more manga left to adapt, even if the ending is far away.

Who knows if this new adaption will be good. I've heard nothing about it but that one thread with a picture saying 2016 adaption.

berserk is 10/10, very gritty, you should watch it

if you cbf then watch the OVA/movie 1 and 2 , they are fucking brilliant. (theyre just the series condensed into movies + better animation iirc) (the 3rd ova/movie wasn't that great so switch back the series at that point)

like just put on berserk movie/OVA 1 and it will carry you

An FYI for anyone wanting to watch Berserk, the Berserk movies are full CGI. At times they can look good, at times it can be really jarring. But at the end of the day its still CGI garbage and therefore should be despised for doing everything with CGI. The TV show on the other hand doesn't have all the CGI garbage, but instead makes heavy usage of still shots for scenes, rather than actual animation. So you'd just have to pick your poison. I liked the TV series, for what its worth.
