Reader’s Choice - Favorite Anime 2006 December 17
The end of the year is always a good time to reflect on what we’ve seen these past four or so seasons. I’m still in the process of writing up my opinions on the Best of Anime 2006, but I was wondering what everyone else thought. And so, listed below are 99 series that aired in the year 2006 (plus “Other” at the very bottom to make an even 100). I have my suspicions on how people will vote, but I’m very curious to see how this really turns out. Choose your favorite and the winner will get included in next week’s post!
Disclaimer - The methodology that I chose was to include series that:
Even with these requirements, there were still a few minor/kiddie/unpopular shows that I didn’t include. If for some reason you felt that Sasami Mahou Shoujo Club was the best series this year, then you can always vote under “Other.”
Note: This poll will close Wednesday, December 20th, 2006 at 11:59 PM.
The poll is now closed. Official tallies will be announced soon.

Suzumiya Haruhi FTW! xD

What can I say? Haruhi’s already influencing the poll results.

This is a tough one, since i’ve watched more than half on the list, picking just one would be an injustice.

Here’s my “A list” for 2006, according to your ground rules:
Nerima Daikon Brothers
Sugar Sugar Rune
Black Cat
Noein
REC
xxxHolic TV
Zegapain
Kamisama Kazoku
Welcome to the NHK
Kemonozume
I voted for Zegapain on your list, but Kemonozume is a close second for me.
I don’t know if the following series should be on the list, because I don’t know how long they are running, but they are also on my “A list” :
Ghost Hunt
Yamato Nadeshiko Shichi Henge
Bakumatsu
Dave B

Tough choice…
Haruhi vs. Ouran
Ouran made me laugh more, Haruhi was cuter though…
I can’t make up my mind!!!
Shinova at 12:36 am on December 18th, 2006
Suzumiya Haruhi. VERY closely followed by Shana and Utawarerumono, for me.
Waaaaa at 12:37 am on December 18th, 2006
Haruhi vs. Ouran vs. Zegapain for me… I think I’ll just roll a dice or something
Julius Firefocht at 12:38 am on December 18th, 2006
For Suzumiya Haruhi!
suckoja at 12:38 am on December 18th, 2006
Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuutsu is the one an only choice!!
urmom at 12:41 am on December 18th, 2006
like everybody says, cannot decide between Ouran and Suzumiya Haruhi…
but I chose Haruhi anyway.
T3h pwn3r3r at 12:48 am on December 18th, 2006
O__o wow almost impossible to choose for me
black cat vs, Air Gear vs, Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuuutsu vs, ouran high school host club, vs school rumble -_-’

Are polls even allowed to have 100 choices? If I had started mass downloading at the beginning of the year or end of last year, then this would be incredibly hard. However, I only started downloading anime during the summer, so there are only few shows that I’ve actually watched. So the choices are limited for me, but still difficult. Suzumiya Haruhi? Mai-Otome? Zero no Tsukaima? Utawarerumono? Fate/Stay Night? Canvas2?
But I’ll pick Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuu’utsu on this one because of the awesomeness of episode 12

It was a little hard to actually choose between Suzumiya, REC, Hatakari Man, and Bartender.
BOZZ at 12:58 am on December 18th, 2006
The runaway favourite is probably The Melancholy of Suzumiya Haruhi despite there being other gems, like Noein.
