Japanator's Top 50 anime of the Decade.

[jesterscourt]

Death Note should be in top 3.

 

[Skid00dshi]

FMA, Bleach, Haruhi and the others are too overrated.

Gundam 00 and One Piece should be there. Somewhere in the top 5 or at least top 10.

I'm plesantly surprised to see Honey and Clover so high on the list. I haven't seen most of the stuff on this list so I can't tell if it deserves the position next to the rest or not, but that series was really moving. It was just so true, it had me in tears at various points

Poooooooooooooooooookemon!
Will HAVE to be there, i mean, come on!

I'm sorry, but Pokemon can hardly be taken as a serious anime. It's very driven to marketing in the west, which it did quite successfully (I even watched it when I was a kid). While I hate overly Japanese influence in things as much as the next stereotypical American, I have to say if it was marketed towards the west it would be worse a lot of the time. Japan anime marketed in Japan usually can be a little edgier and doesn't always have to be a kids thing.

Now I have to go watch Darker Than Black. I know it's not super popular but I'd like it on the list. It's a little corny at times but I do love the storyline and the Heroes-like attributes (such as superpowers in a normal world and stuff like that).

[Canonbeat234]

All right, someone point me to anime website that shows Tengen Toppa Gurren_Lagann and Honey and Clover. NAO!!!

Also I'm glad there's no Bleach in the ranks.

 

[Hatsu]

Bakemonogatari needs to be on the list. And Eden of the East needs to be higher as well.

 

[BoxShot]

Bakemonogatari is rank 39

 

[Shakraka]

[Hatsu]

Bakemonogatari is rank 39

Whoops. Needs to be higher then.

[Cermage]

Everything else, surprisingly, looks pretty reasonable. Except maybe Azumanga Daioh, but I've never seen it.

azudaioh is pretty much lucky star's predecessor, though by far no where near as much intended moe, otaku references and a larger focus on school life. its by the same mangaka who writes yotsuba?! very much worth a watch if you're into school life things.
