YCM Anime Awards

Recommended Posts

My goal is to find out what people think is the best anime. This will function similar to the YCM Grand Tournement, except with anime only. Its going to be similar to a movie awards. some catigores are, best horror anime, best action anime, best harem anime, best anime from 8+ years ago, best new anime, best mecha anime, best anime female, best anime male, and so on. simply name the anime you want and the catigory it falls under. For example Gurren Laggan in action, Rosario Vampire in harem, and so on. Each person can only nominate up to five different anime.

The first round will consist of anime of the same genre pitted against one-another. The top seven from each genre will move to the next round. The second round will consist of primarly the same thing as the first round. The third round will be the same as the first two. That will continue until there are two different anime left in a catigory. The fourth round will consist will decide the winner of each category.

NOTE- anime that are same serries, but have a season with a differnt name/remake ( exalmpe, FMA Brotherhood or Rozen Maiden Traumend ) count as the same anime, not two seperate anime. If someone wants to add a category, just say it and I will most likely put it in.

NOTE- You CAN NOT nominate a hentai anime.

matches will be decided via http://www.random.org/lists/

I second the thought of Manga awards.

Quick question about this rule. I was going to mention a series that had a second anime with only about 5% of the story matching at all, and both versions fall into different categories of anime. Would this mean that said series would be unable to enter both installments into the individual categories they qualify for simply because they have the same characters?

Negima! Magister Negi Magi [Supernatural/Harem] (the Japanese version is called "Mahō Sensei Negima!", use whichever name you want)
Negima!? Magister Negi Magi [Supernatural/Comedy] (the Japanese version is simply called "Negima!?", use whichever name you want)*

Both of these are also arguably action series, but that section is overcrowded and the fighting really doesn't take center stage in the anime adaptations, so yeah.

As nobody's done it yet, *insert mandatory One Piece, Naruto and Digimon entries here*. I don't really think I need to explain which falls under what.

[size="1"]*In this particular case, the dub is miles better than the original at being funny and in general. Just thought I'd point that out.[/size]

In that case, expand Mahou Sensei Negima into Ecchi. Many seem to get that interpretation of it anyways.
