Anime of the Year 2009-II Spring - Souten Kouro
Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuuutsu (2009) and Souten Kouro are my favorites in Spring 2009. K-On! and Shangri-La are following slightly behind.
Anime of the Year 2009-I Winter - Druaga no Tou: The Sword of Uruk
Sequel Druaga no Tou: The Sword of Uruk is the only contestant this small season.
Anime of the Year 2008-IV Fall - Toradora!
Toradora! is the queeen of tsundere and a great anime, but Tentai Senshi Sunred is one of the best parody comedies out there despite seemingly low popularity.
Anime of the Year 2008-III Summer - Detroit Metal City
I enjoyed both Detroit Metal City and Lucky☆Star: Original na Visual to Animation this season, but original work wins, as usual .
VN of the Month May 2023
Had serious doubts about including Vtuber games, but let's do it for volume. It's hard to call any visual novel a normal one this month.
Anime of the Year 2008-II Spring - Druaga no Tou: The Aegis of Uruk
Druaga no Tou: The Aegis of Uruk is a great inspiring fantasy . Also found Kure-nai enjoyable.
Anime of the Year 2008-I Winter - Ookami to Koushinryou
Ookami to Koushinryou is the only bright spot in this short season.
Anime of the Year 2007-IV Fall - Minami-ke
Gyakkyou Burai Kaiji: Ultimate Survivor , Minami-ke and Genshiken 2 are all considered minor masterpieces by me, but two of them had some representation earlier, so only Minami-ke is fresh new.
Anime of the Year 2007-III Summer - Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei
Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei , Stranger: Mukou Hadan and Piano no Mori all got minor masterpiece scores from me. Don't want to choose, so series wins over movies.
Anime of the Year 2007-II Spring - Lucky☆Star
I was going to never rate comedies highly, but Lucky☆Star is more than a comedy, it's a meta-comedy and is enjoyable on many layers. Claymore is only slightly behind. Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann and Bokura no definitely deserve a mention, but these are more flawed works.
Anime of the Year 2007-I Winter - Nodame Cantabile
Nodame Cantabile is the only masterpiece in this short season
Anime of the Year 2006-IV Fall - Death Note
Death Note as new title takes the upper hand over sequel Black Lagoon: The Second Barrage . But I can also name a number of minor masterpieces - Hataraki Man , Genshiken OVA , Paprika
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
