VN of the Month April 2023
I bet remaining companies coordinate release windows to issue exactly one conventional visual novel each month without any competition
Anime of the Year 2006-III Summer - NHK ni Youkoso!
NHK ni Youkoso! is a genius title. Koukaku Kidoutai: Stand Alone Complex - Solid State Society is still nice.
Anime of the Year 2006-II Spring - Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuuutsu
Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuuutsu is revolutionary anime in several ways, so for me it has the upper hand over Black Lagoon which is also a great masterpiece, but in more mundane , complex and adult way. Lots of titles in Spring season, but I can't vouch for the rest.
Anime of the Year 2006-I Winter - Ergo Proxy
Ergo Proxy is my favorite anime of the past which is still a full head ahead of most anime, though I see its imperfection nowadays. I also see Fate/stay night and Hellsing Ultimate as minor masterpieces deserving a mention.
Anime of the Year 2005-III Summer - Koukaku Kidoutai: Stand Alone Complex - The Laughing Man
Koukaku Kidoutai: Stand Alone Complex - The Laughing Man is inevitably the winner, but for a change there two more small masterpieces - Ichigo Mashimaro and Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children
Anime of the Year 2005-II Spring - Hachimitsu to Clover
Lots of decent works, none is good enough for me. If I really needed to choose, I'd probably go for Hachimitsu to Clover as with all its flaws it can still be nice at times.
Anime of the Year 2004-III Summer - Gantz 2nd Stage
Turns out I criticized everything too much this season, and Gantz 2nd Stage comes out as the only candidate
Anime of the Year 2004-II Spring - Gantz
Gantz is the anime I truly love with all its weak sides. Samurai Champloo and Appleseed (Movie) should be noticed as well.
Anime of the Year 2004-I Winter - Interlude
Among three titles with score of 9 only Interlude is a new title, so it takes the upper hand over sequels Koukaku Kidoutai: Stand Alone Complex 2nd GIG and Innocence , plus there's this great little series Mousou Dairinin that deserves a mention.
Anime of the Year 2003-IV Fall - Sakigake!! Cromartie Koukou
Lots of titles, lots of masterpieces. Gunslinger Girl , Gungrave and Jungle wa Itsumo Hare nochi Guu Final deserve a honorary mention as minor masterpieces, but my heart is with Sakigake!! Cromartie Koukou
Anime of the Year 2003-III Summer - Full Metal Panic? Fumoffu
Can't call anything masterpiece again. Let's point out Full Metal Panic? Fumoffu , maybe.
Anime of the Year 2003-II Spring - Texhnolyze
Many titles, but still no masterpieces. Texhnolyze is the closest one, as for me
VN of the Month January 2023
With already few titles released it might be the swan song for Giga and MAGES
Anime of the Year 2003-I Winter - .hack//Tasogare no Udewa Densetsu
My personal preference goes to .hack//Tasogare no Udewa Densetsu in the absence of masterpieces
Anime of the Year 2002-IV Fall - Koukaku Kidoutai: Stand Alone Complex
Koukaku Kidoutai: Stand Alone Complex is a genius masterpiece.
Anime of the Year 2002-III Summer - Jungle wa Itsumo Hare nochi Guu Deluxe
Did not want to give Jungle wa Itsumo Hare nochi Guu Deluxe a masterpiece to give some other decent anime a highlight, but 'tis a barren wasteland this season.
Anime of the Year 2002-II Spring - Abenobashi Mahou☆Shoutengai
Abenobashi Mahou☆Shoutengai is the only work I can call a masterpiece this season
Anime of the Year 2002-I Winter - Palme no Ki
No masterpieces as usual, personally enjoyed Palme no Ki more than others.
Anime of the Year 2001-III Summer - Cowboy Bebop: Tengoku no Tobira
Ended up choosing no masterpieces, but Cowboy Bebop: Tengoku no Tobira is my personal preference.
Anime of the Year 2001-II Spring - Jungle wa Itsumo Hare nochi Guu
Jungle wa Itsumo Hare nochi Guu is unrivalled champion in Spring 2001.
Anime of the Year 2001-I Winter - Animation Seisaku Shinkou Kuromi-chan
Calm before the storm of titles in spring. No masterpieces again, my favor goes to Animation Seisaku Shinkou Kuromi-chan
Anime of the Year 2000-IV Fall - Hajime no Ippo
Can't call anything masterpiece , but Hajime no Ippo is the closest to it.
Anime of the Year 2000-III Summer - Strange Dawn
Strange Dawn made my day. Vampire Hunter D (2000) also deserves a mention.
