The results from the Long Anime Poll are in and they’re actually quite interesting! We’ve got a mix of current shows that are ending soon, others that will wrap up within the next 4 to 10 years, recently finished series, and a surprising number of older shows that ended over 13 years ago, many of them from 1990–2012. https://imgur.com/a/NadaW9q To make it easier to share the results (and to save myself the trouble of reposting a long wall of text), I’ve put everything into an Imgur link. Inside, you’ll find: 1. The full results with the Strawpoll link. 2. A short, spoiler-free description for each show in the top 33, mostly covering genre and how close each one is to its finale, last episode, or last season. That should cover everything for the next poll. If you spot any errors or think some adjustments are needed, please let me know! I haven’t even seen a quarter of the shows on this list myself, so much of it comes from quick research.

Mr Krabs

did you end up listening to any of the song recommendations in the comments from last week? curious what you thought

Kaycee

I want them to watch spyxfamily so bad 😭 it literally has everything in it that they want from wholesome shows. I mean hello the found family and cute child!! It was robbed by cyberpunk edgerunners last time 😭

Alex

Similarly still chasing summer, or at least trying to enjoy the more colourful aspects of autumn so "Sense" by Last Dinosaurs (along with a lot of their popular stuff honestly) has been getting a lot of play for me lately 👍

Robert Dirk H.

Telenovelas have always been pretty popular in Germany. A bunch of them were even adapted by the German TV industry, so there are tons of similar shows around. Personally, I have never watched a single one. I couldn’t even name any. It always seemed more like something the girls in my class were into. So yeah, I’m probably not the right person to ask about that 😅 But I can tell you what the best map in COD MW2 (2009) was though! 😎

If JJK is in the poll, it's because they've decided it's really time to watch it, because I don't see it losing to any of the other possible options. Maybe Apothecary is the opponent that can come closest to competing because of its current hype. But if Jujutsu is present, it's a sure win but my choice would be Fruits Basket.

Unholy

Relaxing Bocchi day!

James Long

I really hope Apothecary Diaries is next after Monster. I think it is the perfect choice.

Robert Dirk H.

Blue Box was literally added just three days ago, after 560 votes were already in. The Season 2 announcement came way earlier than I expected, so I moved it from the Short Anime list to the Long Anime list. Honestly, if it had been there from the start, it probably would have made it into the Top 20.

Mr Krabs

nvm lol i didnt listen to the end discussion yet

Iwa

Didn't know kaguya sama was this much liked by their community, I hope it wins next poll... It's also sad to see that animes like to your eternity that they would adore are so low and that they will probably never watch it but who knows maybe in 20 years 😭 At least the list is full of bangers, it's not like there is solo leveling or blue lock

MJ

Just a bit of information here. Seika Ijichi ( The older sister ) is 29 years old, she just looks younger because of the shows art style, also the word tsundere is a word used to describe a character who looks cold on The outside but is warm on the inside. It was a word used by Nijika the younger sister this episode when talking about her older sister. Tsundere is a word used in many anime’s to describe certain characters.

Robert Dirk H.

I think that Dororo is so much better than To Your Eternity using the same premise. So I can understand why it's that low.

Burn7G

Can't wait for the next one! This time, I recommend 'Beef' by Nas.

bondbond53

Lmfao yes nobody ever chose Lupita. It was always Roberta and Mia. Roberta and Diego were the best couple in my opinion

Iwa

I don't think you really understood what I wanted to say with to your eternity, it's just that it's sad to see a lot of really good show are this far behind and that we may never have a reaction to it. I'm not saying that to your eternity is better than the shows its behind (also i do not see dororo in the list, I am blind ?)

Robert Dirk H.

I find it funny how people in other countries talk about their first experience with alcohol. I drank for the first time when I was 14, and from 16 to 19 I went through a wild party phase. In Germany, you can buy beer when you're 16. Since I turned 21, I haven't touched alcohol. At some point, I realised that I drink so little alcohol that I might as well just stop :D

Robert Dirk H.

Dororo is a Short anime with 25 episodes, not in that poll. And yeah, sry, I misunderstood you :D

Iwa

Last time I recommended a french song, this time it's "Koi wa Explosion" by Masayishi Oishi, so a japanese song by a musician I just discovered recently

Tsunemori Kiriko

The more I watch your Bocchi reaction, the more "girls band" animes I want you to watch (I don't want to be an annoying person here but once again I really hope you can watch MyGO in the future, which is a masterpiece of this genre. God knows how many people I need to watch MyGO and vote for it with me... The themes the show tries to convey, how complex and satisfying all the characters' developments are...I promise you will have so much to discuss about!). Back to Bocchi, your reaction has again made me appreciate slice-of-life shows so much more. I just really enjoy how you pick up every little detail the author uses to depict the characters' personalities, and how much you can relate to Bocchi (as an asian I always thought very few white people have social anxiety issues, especially you girls who seem so positive and lively most of the time, so now I guess that's very "racist" of me). By the way, I don't know if anyone has mentioned this, but Bocchi the Rock and Frieren have the same director (Keiichiro Saito), who I think deserves the most credit for the rich visual expressiveness of both shows. If you read the original manga of Bocchi the Rock, you will find out that it's a four-panel manga, which is a style that uses four panels arranged vertically (you have seen it in Look Back. It's the kind of manga that Fujino draws for her school newspaper). Each strip typically follows a simple structure: setup, development, twist, and punchline, making it especially popular for comedy and slice-of-life stories. So you can imagine how much efforts the director put into it to make Bocchi the Rock feel so lively and smooth in this 24-min-episode format.

reos

I love song of the week, it's the best dynamic ever. So I will recommend Tú Sí Sabes Quererme by Natalia Lafourcade, man I love Mexican music :)

Jason Parker

Wish Fruits Basket was higher. Their reactions would be legendary. I love Kaguya, Apotherary Diaries and Steins;gate but I think Fruits basket would be most enjoyable. I'm going to be super bummed when they watch Jujutsu Kaisen next lol

HenryM

If you're in the mood for more spanish, here's one from a very famous band in my country ;) Soda Stereo - De Musica Ligera

Benjamin Harris

I’d recommend Rifle by The Last Dinner Party. If you like Wolf Alice you’ll love them

Tsunemori Kiriko

Almost forgot this week's song recommendation: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uoox9fpmDP0&list=RDUoox9fpmDP0&start_radio=1 “Duvet” is a 1998 song by the British-Japanese alternative rock band Bôa, sung by lead vocalist Jasmine Rodgers. It gained international recognition as the opening theme for the cult anime Serial Experiments Lain (which is also worthy of being added into your watchlist) where its introspective tone perfectly complemented the show’s themes of identity, technology, and isolation. I watched Lain 6 years ago, yet the melody of “Duvet” still lingers in my mind from time to time, and when it does, a strange sense of sadness always washes over me.

Aleister Crowley

Crazy how far some shows make it. As a mexican guy i was never into Rebelde when I was young but I did have a crush on Dulce Maria

Scott

Looking at the poll, this seems like a situation where ranked-choice voting is the best way to stop JJK. There's probably a much stronger overlap in appeal between Steins;Gate, Apothecary Diaries, Kaguya, and Spy x Family than there is with JJK.

Robert Dirk H.

I just hope they wait with JJK. It's too early, because there are still ~48 episodes coming.

Lau

Bernardo you have great taste. FRUITS BASKET FOR THE WIN

Yoshi444

Kaguya-sama in second place 🥳

Scott

@Robert, I don't think it being too early is the problem with JJK winning. It's a show that sacrifices character writing at the altar of endless fights. Alot of the stuff that anime/shonen fans found "boring" about season 1 of Chainsaw Man is what LM loved the most.

Clawn

Every 3 episodes there is a new ending, sung by a different character in the show. See if you can identify which character sings which ending! When you're finished with the show I recommend checking out Kessoku Band's album with all the songs from the show. My recommendation for this week comes from the manga artist's favorite band: Asian Kung Fu Generation - After Dark. Also, the band's four members are who Bocchi and the other members of Kessoku Band are named after. Very excited for next week!

My Toasty Toast

The short answer is no, it’s not legal for 15 year olds to serve alcohol. Seika, Nijika’s sister, is 30 (25), and she owns the venue

LM Reactions

i love the last dinner party so you’re right

Robert Dirk H.

I have a feeling we can’t stop them from watching Jujutsu Kaisen forever. Season 1 would still be enjoyable for them, but the endless fights afterward will bore them to death and leave them disappointed, because they’ll definitely expect some actual character development, not just characters dying for the sake of it. But if they do start watching JJK, it should at least be at a good time, like between Season 3 Part 3 and Season 3 Part 4 (or whatever MAPPA ends up calling that batch of 24 episodes).

MJ

i know a certain character dying in season 2 is going to piss them off and they will drop the show after that. complete waste of character all for the sake of shock value, and honestly thats only if they even get attached enough to care given 90% of the show are fight scenes, and dont even get me started with that one scene with mei and her little brother. Imagine picking a show like that over fruits basket or apothecary diaries.

Karabo

I'm a lady is a cute little bop. My song recommendation as the self declared Hip- Hop guy is Leslie by Santan Dave

nellie

What I'm listening to today is I Want You by Savage Garden!
