Yes, it’s time for the Twelve Days of Anime Christmas again. This’ll be the fourth year I’m taking part and as it is the last month of the last year of the twentytens, why not be boring and do a year by year anime review? Maybe see what’s the best series of each year, of the decade, the best movies perhaps, all ranked among genres? That sort of thing? Though of course best idol of the decade has already been decided on.
All of this will at least be interesting for me, as I’ve only regularly started watching anime again in 2013/14 and only started watching seasonal anime in Fall 2015. Almost half the decade of anime I’ve only known as backlog, therefore having little to no knowledge of the fan discourse about the shows that aired through it. Looking at my library, there are more than 1500 titles that aired that I found interesting enough to list on MAL. Of those 1500, I watched slightly more than 1000. That’s a lot of anime to go through and it doesn’t even mention movies.
So tomorrow let’s start by looking at those far flung days of 2010. If you want to look at what other people are doing, take a look at the announcement post for this year. If you want to sign up yourself, here’s the Google docs spreadsheet.
