Though 2016 handed by within the blink of an eye fixed, I’ve obtained so many blessings, most likely greater than I deserved. I’m so grateful for that. All through my journey, anime has additionally helped me tremendously in relieving my stress, serving as my escape from the mundane. It was nice that 2016 was additionally a fantastic 12 months for anime. Each season we acquired to see some nice exhibits; lots of them shone brighter than the remaining.
So yeah, as we have fun the brand new 12 months, I might prefer to share my TOP 5 PICKS lists for this Anime Yr 2016. This may most likely be for a number of posts coming early this 12 months as a result of yeah, I’ve to share the shortage of posts from not too long ago.
I’ve decided the rankings based mostly on my fully biased opinion. If I loved it, they loved it. Time frame.
With out additional ado, right here they’re:
- FLYING WITCH
Really a therapeutic anime. All the present radiates peace and tranquility – good for complete rest. I can perceive why some individuals would discover this present boring, as a result of hey, now we have completely different tastes! Stunned, proper?
What I really like about this present is that every scene unfolds naturally. It completely combines the fantasy aspect with the on a regular basis. Are you able to imagine I actually loved a few episodes the place the characters go for just a few walks, decide wildflowers, and eat pancakes? The present meanders by way of some boring conditions, however the present invested in character interactions and their day by day lives. Add to that the candy and tremendous sympathetic characters (Chinatsu, anybody?) and the peaceable music. I am unable to ask for extra. Oh, most likely extra flies?
- BOKU DAKE GA INAI MACHI
Yoho! That is most likely essentially the most hyped anime in the course of the season it aired, if not all of 2016. I do not know, I used to be out of contact with the anime group besides on Twitter. However yeah, I purchased into the hype as a result of this present was actually good at making me really feel on the sting of my seat in each episode. I loved the thriller aspect and waited for the reveal on the finish of the episode.
The plot and time journey aspect had been stored easy to keep away from plot holes; the present invested extra within the emotional points. Who remembered the scene the place Satoru’s mom took care of Kayo? Man, the sensation. I may most likely put this larger on my listing, however the last episodes let me down by some means. They had been nonetheless good, however I simply anticipated extra, I assume?
- HAIKYUU!! S2
Finest season of Haikyuu for me. The revenge match in opposition to Seijo stored me wanting extra each week. Regardless that I already had an concept what the end result can be (typical sports activities anime system), I used to be nonetheless on the sting of my seat each match. Season 3 was additionally good as a result of it put Tsukishima within the highlight, however the rigidity between the Shiratorizawa and Karasuno does not evaluate to that of Seijo and Karasuno. Man, I need extra Oikawa. Oh yeah.
- RE:ZERO KARA HAJIMERU ISEKAI SEIKATSU
A complete shock for me. I don’t know in regards to the present after I picked it up; At first I used to be drawn to the character designs. Then that final scene of the primary episode occurred. Tree! It piqued my curiosity. And from then on, the present continued to offer me an adrenaline rush. I completely loved the entire experience. It is the one anime I watched throughout my evaluation. That claims lots.
I do love and hate the best way the present handled Subaru, however in direction of the tip I loved seeing the fruits of his struggling (though he’ll most likely endure extra based mostly on the spoilers I learn on-line). The setting was good for me and I want to know extra in regards to the world they’re in. I noticed myself desirous to know extra, in regards to the royal choice, the witches, the dragon – the whole lot about Lugnica. I want they might have the second season quickly. I cannot wait.
Oh, to keep away from battle, my ships contain Reinhardt and Subaru. The previous is the last word seme and the latter the last word uke. I will go away the mixtures as much as you all! (Trace: no Emilia and no Rem)
- NATSUME YUUJINCHOU GA
Do I nonetheless want to clarify why that is my TOP 1 decide? Do I actually have to do this? Rattling, I missed this present. I’ve misplaced depend of what number of occasions I’ve rewatched all the franchise within the time it has been gone.
Because it’s already in its fifth season, Natsume was already a developed character and I am already invested in his character. It is undoubtedly value seeing how he grows each season. I particularly like how this season centered extra on some characters like Natori and Matoba. We dig just a little deeper into the world of exorcists that Natsume was dragged into. And the penultimate episode about Touko and Shigeru – PERFECT. I cried, actually. It tied up some issues that had been let go in the course of the earlier seasons.
There are MORE avenues through which Natsume Yuujinchou may discover. We nonetheless do not know a lot and we should always anticipate extra. Happily, the sixth season had already been introduced. Thanks, anime gods!
Particular Mentions: Osomatsu-san, Hibike Euphonium S2, Bungou Stray Canine S2, Hai to Gensou no Grimgar
So there you’ve gotten it. We had been blessed with anime 12 months final 2016. I actually hope that 2017 can be even higher.
