Not every season needs to be a winner haha. Gives me time to catch up on my plan-to-watch list. I'm watching azumanga daioh right now. And I just finished watching all of the monogatari series for the first time.
Azumanga Daioh is fantastic and I loved it. I have recommended it to a couple people recently and been told that it is too slow. However, I am convinced it is the kids that are wrong.
For people who grew up with recent anime I can see that being the case. Compare this with any modern comedy, like shikanoko, and it's night and day. (not that I agree, but I do understand why they are wrong lmao)
My favorite comedy anime is Gintama, which I think is even slower than this a lot of the time.
But I'm loving it so far. Lots of subtle laughs in there.
Also, another show I have enjoyed this season is Love is Indivisible by Twins down at #30. Some shows seem to be really flying under the radar of the AC audience.
Thank you for pointing out the full results; I'm a goof and I missed that.
I really think Dededede is suffering from mediocre translations. It feels like there's a ton of subtext that isn't making its way into the subtitles. Hopefully it'll find its way towards a fansub community to help fill in the gaps and context clues.
Oshi no Ko tops the chart for the first time this season with an excellent episode this past week. There were also two big movers in the top 10 in MHA and Last Crusade. I don't watch either show, so I am guessing they had some big climaxes this past week.
