Reader’s Choice - Favorite Anime 2007 Poll December 20
It’s time for the Second Annual Reader’s Choice Poll! There are a lot of good choices this year, and I’m still in the process of choosing my own favorites (having a hard time deciding between GEASS and Gurren Lagann, among others), but below, you can vote for your Favorite Anime of 2007 from a list of every single series that’s ended this past year.
If you voted in the first annual poll last year, you might remember that I had a somewhat complex set of criteria for shows that were included on the list. This year, I’ve decided to simply include every anime series (no OVAs or movies) that ended in 2007, with the only exceptions being the handful that ended last January. The general idea is that you can’t judge a series properly until it’s completely over. That means fans of Clannad or any of the other currently airing shows that are two seasons long will have to wait until next year’s poll (and that’s also why Kanon is on the list).
All together, there are 135 choices, plus “Other” in case there’s a relatively obscure anime series you really enjoyed that’s not on the list (or even something that I just neglected to add). Choose your favorite and the winner will get included in next week’s post!
This poll will close Wednesday, December 26th, 2007 at 11:59 PM.

Tengen Toppa, FTW. I love Gainax’s brilliance when it comes to parodies so well done that they don’t seem like parodies at all.

Spiral Energy FTW!
Naakay at 1:10 am on December 20th, 2007
It was between Gurren-Lagann, Kanon, Dennou Coil, and Code Geass for me. In the end however, Code Geass isn’t actually finished yet and the ending was a rather huge cliff hanger so while it was a good show that ‘ended’, I was still left unsatisfied. If it wasn’t for that though, I probably would have chosen Geass over Kanon.
