MOST ORIGINAL POLL (MOP) (Patreon)

I've really been struggling to decide on a show for fridays. There are a bunch of big things currently airing, somewhat lined up to replace current slots, but friday feels wide open, like a blank page, and I've had a real block to start filling it in.

Looking over some of the suggested shows from the discord, I realized something - we haven't watched an anime original for a while. I believe Edgerunners was the last original we watched, and even that is tied to an existing property. It's been adaptation after adaptation, and while many of them have been spectacular, I can't help but feel like something fundamentally anime is missing from my anime channel. Well, that's a problem that can be solved. Let's watch an anime original.

I've gathered a selection of completely original shows (Sorry Heike) that I've missed since 2020. I want to see some creativity unbound by adaptation. I want to see what the artists are doing with their own blank pages. Hopefully you'll join me and help steer our course by voting for the show(s) you'd most like to see on this poll. And no, we're not doing the dumb number voting, that experiment failed, the good ole "hell yeah" is back.
