@@Felix-rc8kf Oresuki was fine, Cautious Hero was good but not great. Oresuki started well but drifted to being the exact same as every other harem romcom quite fast. Cautious Hero did some things different, its comedy was good, it looked fine and the characters were fine too. The story was good, giving a 'full' story of defeating the demon king in the isekai world when normally the demon king never even appears. The cautiousness was interesting too, especially when you see why he is that way and why he does certain things, such as blowing up bodies. But can you shut the fuck up about 'smelling mediocrity'. Unfortunately, we are not privileged enough to get hundreds of hours of pure gold every week. Unless you are new to anime, you can't just watch amazing 10/10 shows every day. Nor would I want to. Watching mediocre, bordering good shows is fine, in fact I recommend it. It helps you appreciate the better stuff, it can be watched in a more relaxed fashion and it is good for watching weekly. I wouldn't want to watch a 10/10 show in between study for example, just watching the weekly stuff however is perfect. If I was ever so much of a stuck up, spoiled fan to say such utter shit, I think I'd rather never watch anime again. There is nothing wrong with mediocrity as long as it isn't praised as gold. If you are going to review shows for a 'best of' list however, you should at least watch the mediocrity so you can give it a fair chance.

@@oxikons__sinsxo1330 No. Rating an anime based on a fantastic season is very illogical. This is essentially rating a story around it's rising action and climax. It's a completely wrong method of judging a series. You can't just completely disregard the flaws it had before season 3 and just boosts it's rating simply because it had a fantastic season. It's like saying I would rate Full metal Alchemist Brotherhood a 9/10 around the plot where Edward fought with the Father. It doesn't work like that. I'd rate the series 7.7/10, because the way it's narrative portrays it's characters (Historia, Ymir, Erwin) is astounding. But there are parts that fell flat. Mikasa's characterization is deliberately ignored by WIT studio, certain dialogues had flawed reasoning (Basement?) and a little rickety in minor parts of the show. I expected it to reach a 8.5/10 at the least when season 4 hit. But rating an entire series based off one season is equally flawed as those claims you lashed. The top 5 of MAL are fully completed shows and are not "split into different seasons" to be judged. FMAB, steinsgate, HxH, LOTGH, excluding Gintama. Lol.

Beastars was a huge surprise with it's grounded and interesting characters that have great writing. This anime has stellar worldbuilding as well. It feels super unique with 3D animation and animal characters. Amongst all these other shows that look similar to each other and play it safe, Beastars truly shines as something of it's own.

As someone who had never watched or read Fruits Basket before, I absolutely loved the 2019 remake. It was that emotional ride that I loved anime like Toradora for, it had something about it that many newer anime lack that I can't quite put my finger on. Also, having watched it dubbed, it was so nice to hear Laura Bailey in an anime again after so long

I got mad respect for Arkada calling Fruits Basket the best anime of the year. It's insanely heartwarming with a truly wonderful cast of characters. It was also compelling and mysterious enough to keep you coming back for more each week, but not cliff-hanger stressful like a lot of shows are. It's a rare balance I truly appreciate because hey, sometimes I don't want to feel stressed at the end of an episode. And Fruits Basket hard core scratches that itch. Excited for Season 2! :D

I liked this format. Super chill. :)

Alright, let me rack my brain: 3 favorites of the year (not in a particular order, just the 3 favorites). I am happy all 3 of these are getting continuations, and they were all so good that I went from watching the show to reading the manga volumes as they're released: - Dr. Stone - Science is fun! The show makes science fun! - Demon Slayer - Is it perfect? No. It has issues. But it does action very, very, well. And I enjoy it greatly. - The Promised Neverland - Such well done, psychological and horror stuff. Other things I watched: Kemono Michi - Watched the first episode because the premise sounded silly. Didn't follow up though. Fire Force - Stopped following it weekly, but it got a second season so maybe I'll give it a binge-watch catch-up later. My Hero Academia S4 - Few eps behind but enjoying it still. Ascendence of a Bookworm (this is because of you Tristan) - watched the first four episodes. It's a very sloooww show. One Punch-Man S2 - Just casually watching on Toonami. It's okay. Not super-engaging, but okay. Sarazanmai - watched the first ep because of a "We'll give you an anime to watch" quiz. It was not my kind of weird. Kaguya-Sama - I've watched the first 4 episodes. It's funny. I've already read through the first 9 books of it.

I'm gonna say Fire Force surprised me. Went in expecting to not like it (For similar reason as Arkada) came out wanting to read the manga sooo I'd give it a good binge. C:

Bookworm was my anime of the year. Even beating Promised Neverland for me. My goodness that story. I was crying along with the characters in some scenes.

Great video and you should do a tier list every year.

This was a journey lmao. Can't say I'm too surprised on a few of these. Nice to see Chihaya getting recognition :) if you like the game or "get it" then its truly one of the best "sports" animes. (I've ever watched

Fruits Basket and Promised Neverland were my two favourites of 2019! So glad to see this on the Frosty tier.✨💛 Can't wait for 2020 for their sequels!

Kono Oto Tomare is my Best of Year. Hell it even made my Top Favorites list which I'm really really picky of.

I really enjoy hearing a video with you speaking more candidly, compared to the much more scripted and acted review videos. Both are great, but I enjoy this as something fresh! Also, as someone who doesn't watch a ton of anime, end of year videos are always my favorite to see what I need to catch up on. Having the titles in text form would've been super useful for someone like me who doesn't know how to spell pretty much any title (even having the list in the description would've been useful). Edit: Halfway through the video and I now see that the text is definitely at the top! Didn't catch that for the first 20 minutes. So disregard my above complaint!

Attack on Titan Season 3 Part 2 and Mob Psycho II are my favorites this year.

Vinland Saga is hands down my favorite this year .

+Glass Reflection; I have to admit, while I didn't particularly like the format that you went with for the video itself this year, (I prefer the script and structure of your past Best-of-Year videos) the fact that you singled out Fruits Basket as your favorite anime of the year made up for quite a bit. It's definitely my favorite of the year as well and a great contender for the "Anime to Watch When Life Has Got You Down" list that you made a while back. (Plus, like you, I am super-mega happy that the majority of the original dub cast returned!) If you could write up a full review of at least the first season that goes into greater detail as to what makes Fruits Basket 2019 work as well as it does and why it spoke to you enough that you awarded it Best-of-Year... well, let me tell ya, as a fellow long-time Fruba fan, that would be amazing to see a ways down the road! 😊 Oh! And I know I'm late, but Merry Christmas! 🎅 🥳 🤗

I totally agree with the choice of anime of the year. No other anime this year made me cry as much.

Great as usual! Maybe it has been mentioned alredy, but you mistook the icos of Tsurune for the Kono oto Wo tomete (excuse me if I misspelled) one. Thanks for your fantastic work and charm

Kemono Friends didnt just lose its heart, it got its heart stolen, set on fire and replaced by some form of bio hazard, that is what I feel about S2

Mine was a threeway between Kaguya-sama, Bookworm, and Takagi-san, welp, mostly coz I haven't had time to catch up with the whole bunch of shōnen stuff that came this year. But dang, that's a lot of shows

Are you planning on watching Kemurikusa someday? What with you enjoying Kemono Friends Season 1 and all, I thought you would be interested in seeing Tatsuki and Studio Yaoyorozu's follow up show.

ok but what is YOUR favourite show not what you could recommend best or does it not change at all

I hope he got that the 2nd of B is Kono Oto Tomare! after he edited this :P

Wow, wasn't expecting Fruits Basket, I caught a solid 50% of the As and Frosties you listed, but never thought to even give Fruits Basket a chance.

I'd agree that Fruits Basket is my best of the year it was such a pleasant surprise for me and the story grabs you in a way that you won't ever expect and it's a rare feat lately

Promised neverland and dr. stone were the only anime yet that had me switch to the manga because I didnt want to wait any more

Hey arkada. i just watched the vid dont blame you for miss seeing the picture. but at 12:30 thats Kono Oto Tomare! Sounds of Life or Stop this sound! that being said. i only watched it because i was on a site, and saw that image. like. i remembered it from your video, (this video) so thats neat. that being said. its probably a B anyways. since its good. i enjoy it. but its themes are pretty heavy handed. im not even really good at finding themes, i usually just watch a show, and enjoy. but the power of friendship and music is hitting me in the head. but its touching. the soundtrack is solid enough, and i enjoyed the animation style overall, pretty easy to watch. i guess we will do a quick synopsis of the show here, i did thouroughly enjoy it. basically. the show follows the happenings of a Koto club, the club was mostly made of third years, and only one first year. the year passes, the third years leave... since its the end of their high school life. however that leaves a single second year in the club. and as the saying goes, one person does not a club make.(i think thats correct.) so he tries finding some people. practically the only person who joins, is a delinquint. a dude who constantly gets into fights. but they figure out that both people actually really want the club to continue. a female prodigy also joins the girl gets a few more people to join, however they are slackers. well until they find out that the koto is super fun.
