2007: TTGL, Baccano, Higurashi 2, Seirei no Moribito, Nodame Cantabile, Rucky Star, Mononoke, Claymore, Kaiji, Dennou Coil, Byousoku 5cm, ef, Clannad, Gundam 00, SZS, Moyashimon, Genius Party, KnK movies 1 & 2, Sword of the Stranger, and Geass and Death Note were ongoing...
Then a bunch of other watchable stuff like Darker Than Black, Bokurano, Seto no Hanayome, Minami-ke, Genshiken 2, Saiunkoku Monogatari, Lovely Complex, Macross Frontier...
It was like an endless torrent of animu manna from heaven. 2006 was a great year too (Gintama, Eureka 7, GitS SAC 2, Black Lagoon, Haruhi, Ouran, etc.).
Was any other year in the 2000s/2010s comparable? Why are we mostly swamped with shit now? Is it all Lucky Star's fault?
The 2000's was a great decade for anime
E7 aired in 2005 anon
2007 and 2008 were fantastic years. A lot of great shows continuing from before, as well as newer series airing.
>>144077542
Any of those 2007 series would instantly be AOTS if shown today.
>>144077542
>Claymore
I can see making arguments for most of the other stuff but werent people really down on the anime version of Claymore?
>>144077542
2011 was pretty great too, with Kaiji S2, F/Z, CP, Hyouge Mono, Steins Gate, Hanasaku Iroha, Nichijou, Yuru Yuri, Idolmaster, Ro-Kyu.Bu, HxH, and Horizon.
>>144078100 Claymore
A lot of people didn't like the Claymore ending, but the show was some addictive shit, I rushed home from classes to check if Eclipse had released the latest episode. It's still a good watch now.
>>144077936
Oops, thought it was 2006 because the subbers finally finished releasing it then.
>>144078173
>Kaiji S2, F/Z, CP, Hyouge Mono, Steins Gate, Hanasaku Iroha, Nichijou
Yeah, alright. Gotcha.
>Yuru Yuri, Idolmaster
NO. NO. NO. NO. NO.
>>144078100
It was okay, but the kid was annoying as fuck.
Typical anime pacifist bullshit.
>>144077542
2014 - Space Dandy, Ping Pong, Mushishi, Tamako Love Story, Giovanni's Island, Marnie, Shirobako, Crayon Shin-Chan movie 22, Animator Expos, Wonder, Harmonie
2010 - Tatami Galaxy, House of Five Leaves, K-On!!, Heartcatch Precure, Colorful, Katanagatari, You are Umasou, MIdori-ko, Gum Boy, Shoka, Arriety, Panty and Stocking, Hidamari, Disappearance of Haruhi, Soredemo, Kuragehime, Legend of Koizumi, Hoshi no Umi
What shows from the last few years would you consider as good as the shows listed already? What's going to be remembered?
>>144078253
>Eclipse
Christ almighty, it's been like half a decade since they quit. What a shame, they had nice subs.
>>144078254
>Yuru Yuri
>bad
C'mon son. Also, Idolmaster wasn't a masterpiece but it had a number of great episodes. Episode 15, for example.
>>144077542
Nope
>>144078254
What's wrong with YY? I can understand Idolmaster since everyone isn't into idolshit.
>>144078428
>Idolmaster
>Celebrating the cancer that is slowly killing anime
In a few years every single thing will be about idols
>>144078100
Hipsters will always complain when any manga gets anime adaption no matter good or bad. You'd get lucky to get adaption on par with Claymore nowadays
>>144078459
Not that guy. I watch Yuru Yuri and I enjoyed it but the fanbase, specifically people posting on /a/ are fucking cancerous.
>>144078520
Anon how many times, The fan base shouldn't impact your judgement on the show.
So for 2016, I've enjoyed Re:Zero and Kiznaiver, am I missing out on anything else worth watching that has aired or will be airing?
>>144078486
The Imas anime was hardly the catalyst for idolshit becoming so popular. Idol fans have always been extreme and anime was another outlet for them to express their love for it. Just hope we don't get another insanely popular series like Idolmaster or Love Live or even more spinoffs/sequels.
>>144078688
Nijiiro Days!
>>144078688
>Re:Zero and Kiznaiver
brooo
>>144078520
Dude what? I've always thought YY fans were mostly invisible in the bigger scheme of things.
It's been pretty quiet for a while.
>>144078254
>>144077542
So we're finally at the point where the "golden age" babbies are from the 00s instead of 90s.
>>144079251
>tfw you're a golden age baby
Nothing this season looks interesting. What gives?
>>144078428
> What shows from the last few years would you consider as good as the shows listed already? What's going to be remembered?
OP here. I haven't watched much anime in the last few years, but here are the ones that stick with me:
- The Devil is a Part-Timer
- Shirobako
- Daily Lives of High School Boys
- Yowamushi Pedal
- Bakuman
- Tiger & Bunny
- Parasyte
- OPM
- other watchables: Level E, No Game No Life, Attack on Titan
Why yes, I do like comedies.
>>144078403
Thanks for the recommendations, I'll check them out.
>>144079349
>I have shit taste. What gives?
Haruhi
Lucky Star
K-ON!
Some other shit nobody cares about
Love Live
>>144079349
Maybe this show is more your speed.
>Onara Gorou
>Onara Gorou follows the everyday life of Gorou, the "most admirable of farts," as he solves problems in ways that only a fart can.
>>144079364
Good taste. I wasn't a huge fan of Yowamushi Pedal but it certainly has a large number of fans. Bakuman too, I didn't care much for the anime despite liking what I had read of the manga at that point.
>>144079364
Did you skip Euphonium?
It's better than probably everything on your list.
>>144079251
I don't deny getting into anime in the early 00s, but I did watch some of the classics from the 90s (everyone of my gen saw Dragonball as a kid). The 80s and 90s had their own heights, including all the classic anime films.
I'm just wishing that we would get more of the action, sci-fi, adventure, and imaginative scenarios that we used to. I'm not one for slice of life, unless it's really well done like Kamichu. Give me more Last Exile, Black Lagoon, GitS SAC, Samurai Champloo, Eureka 7, FMA, Kino's Journey, Fist of the North Star, Mononoke, Eden of the East. (Yeah, I know it's not gonna happen.)
2011-2012 are the best years in anime
>>144078100
Claymore was pretty good except for the ending.
I wish they would retcon it and do a season 2.
>>144079693
Yeah I didn't watch Euphonium, kind of passed over it because slice of life. Maybe I'll give it a shot.
>>144079476
Thanks. Yowamushi was fun, Bakuman took some time to really warm up. If you have any recommendations I'm all ears.
>>144078688
Sakamoto Desu ga
That anime is pretty fucking comfy and funny anon
>>144079365

>>144079966
Put some effort into your bait.
>>144080040
>everything ids baid :---Dddd
>>144079920
>slice of life
It's more a sports drama than anything.
Definitely not a slice of life.
>>144078688
Macross delta if you're into that.
A lot of people have been put off by the idols though.
Even I was planning to skip it because of that,but it actually turned out to be pretty good.
>>144078403
I agree with this,2014 wasn't as good as 2006-2007 but it had some pretty decent shows that went unnoticed like M3,Argevollen,Ranpo kitan and hamatora
>>144080387
>it had some pretty decent shows that went unnoticed
>lists some of the worst shows of the year
I'm surprised you didn't mention Dai Shogun desu.
>>144077542
TTGL was fucking shit bar first 8 episodes
>>144078688
You are watching the absolute crap 2016 has produced so far
>>144080670
I'm guessing yours ranpo Kitan and hamatora since the other 2 were barely watched.
I didn't really get why people thought those 2 were bad though,did they expect something else going into them?
I don't really remember what /a/ thought of Hamatora and Kitan didn't really get threads.
>>144079957
Can confirm, Sakamoto Desu Ga is on my list. Would watch again. Need more of that stuff
>>144080247
Okay, if Euphonium is a sports drama, it's definitely a go.
So did we ever get more stuff like Black Lagoon, Samurai Champloo or Kino's Journey? Enlighten an oldfag
>>144080988
>So did we ever get more stuff like Black Lagoon, Samurai Champloo or Kino's Journey?
no and we never will.
This is such a retarded thread, you can literally take a snapshot of any year and find like 10+ good shows no matter what year, even 2015 which had like two garbage seasons still had Fafner Exodus, Rolling Girls, Ninja slayer, Pleiades, Rokka no yuusha, NNBR, Noragami Aragoto, Shirayukihime, One punch man, Lupin, Haikyuu, ConRevo, and the GuP movie and Yamato movie.
>>144082437
Not really, some guy did an analysis of ratings on MAL and ANN, and 2007 was the winner:
https://myswordisunbelievablydull.wordpress.com/2011/09/30/what-was-the-best-year-in-anime-history-tldr-2007/
"According to this chart, not only does 2007 have the highest number of [top-rated] shows, but still has the lowest percentage of sequels, so again it claims the prize as the best year."
It's true that you'll find 10+ good shows in any year, but the overall number has declined.
>>144082437
>Ninja Slayer
>Rokka no Yuusha
>Noragami Aragoto
>Shirayukihime
>Haikyuu
an attempt was made
>>144083343
Shirayukihime and Haikyuu were two of the top three shows of 2015 though. The only contestable one is Shirayukihime can possibly be replace with lupin, with exodus being the best show of 2015.
>>144083191
>MAL and ANN
wew
>>144083191
>some guy
It's blasphemous to be omit the name of the official e-celeb representative of /a/, digibro
>death note
>>144083733
Pardon an oldfag just nostalgically visiting /a/.
I've just started watching Mob Psycho 100 to see what all the kids are on about.
>>144082437
Eupho and Miss Hokusai are better than all of these.
2011
Penguindrum
Chihayafuru
Hyouge mono
All master pieces then there is
Yuru yuri
Nichijou
Kaiji s2
Tiger and bunny
USAGI drop
Which are all really good then
Hxh
Fate zero
Steins gate
Pmmm
Working s2
Ika musume 2
No 6
Idol master
Ano hana
Which I don't like but are really well regarded
>>144083733
>e-peen is still a thing even on 4chan
For some reason I thought we were above this.
>>144083191
>MAL and ANN
>thinking their opinions matter
>>144083733
Okay I watched digibro's video on the decline of anime: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cAxiCcMFTVY
Good watch, nice summary of the whole trend since the 90s
tl;dr the global economic collapse killed the anime boom in the West and we lost manglobe and long original shows
>>144085044
>the global economic collapse killed the anime boom in the West
it's coming back now, i feel
Mob psycho 100 saved 2016
>>144077542
Just posting to say you have great taste and are therefore mah nigga
>>144085211
I certainly hope anime comes back. Why can't we have a nice streaming platform to watch shows on and pay for them, damnit. I'll pay for more Welcome to the NHK or Samurai Champloo or whatever Bones decides to make.
>>144085432
Thanks. Which ones were your favorites from that era?
I got pretty deep into anime in '07, even translated and edited for sub groups. It was a fun and crazy time. I remember posting translator/novel notes for Spice and Wolf here on /a/, haha. Nowadays everyone can sit back and just watch Crunchyroll/Horriblesubs. Kind of glad those days are over, it was a lot of work.
>>144079364
wow, I didn't realize people could have such shit taste
>>144079364
Nice reddit/gaia-tier list

too many repeating digits
>>144078173
>F/Z, Hyouge Mono, Steins Gate, Yuru Yuri, Idolmaster, Ro-Kyu.Bu, HxH
What a truly terrible year for anime.
>>144090475
"moeshit" is such a retarded term
>>144078688
Rakugo, but if you're looking for something like those shows, you'll be disappointed.
>>144090000
>chobits isnt on that list

You have to go back.

it's all the same though.
