Noitamina shows. I think that's all I have to say about that. |

... what? Yeah, they had a real plot in the last 2-3 episodes. Plot which was unnecessary because they were doing perfectly fine just with a little action and mostly harem.
Dunno about that. That new one (Ano hi something) has the potential to be more heart wrecking than Madoka. At least for me it's guaranteed, but I'll wait and watch before judging it on raw quality grounds. |

No, that's not what I meant. Quality has nothing to do with it. Noitamina shows usually get really low ratings, popularity wise, right now. |

I wouldn't say that it's flavored with loli. Oniichan has some moe elements in it but that's it. I would say the list is reliable to me. I was going to finish Oniichan, but I am just going to wait for the BD rips to come out. The extreme censorship makes it hard for me to watch that show. |

well, like most tiny, voluntary, single-vote polls, I wouldn't pay it much mind. Yeah only for the very top it seem indicative of big sellers with Madoka, IS, and Index II.. but for the rest, the votes don't correlate with sales at all so far:

The thing is that with anime because of the nature of the business where seeing massive sales on certain anime while the rest try to survive on the slim pickings that remain.

pretty much so, this is how license companies work as well, they see what sells and what doesn't and pick up what does, not that it's a bad thing per say but it's kinda outdated. |

I look forward to the day I can hear Kyubey in English. His voice will make or break the future dub. You need that perfect combination of "I'm cute and innocent" and "I'm a freakin' psychopath" that results in that serene malevolence. |

Seems poorly worded and not a conspiracy - perhaps it was the viewers ranked the shows they liked without any defined list to pick from?
Either way for me that list is a bit meh. Rainbow Gate being anything but dead last is telling.

there wasn't enough to exploit in the shows, hardcore otaku don't like a serious tone with their lolis or traps and they blew it off. I loved wandering son for what it did but because there wasn't enough cheap exploits or other things the crowd that buys it isn't going to give it a second glance, they would want something like in baka to test or bridget from guilty gear. Not saying baka to test is a bad anime that's what most of the fans over there want. |

You don't really need to rationalize with sales in Japan. If there are cute girls (preferably very young) with a decent story and good writing or just enough fanservice by a popular otaku studio, it's pretty much guaranteed sales. Otherwise how would you apply that theory to Madoka Magica? |

hmm cute girls is enough, if you take away the horror aspect or killing then all you get is hidimari sketch with magical girls, "that's my opinion though" Look at shows like kurernia or dennou coil, they are both good on their own merits but well some of the hard core fans want something more.. if you catch my drift. I am not a 100% on this though and hell i know this is a rumour but there is talk of doing a spin off to magical madako with no killing or horror since a lot fans complained about it, but that's all it is though a rumor. I personally love magical madokoa and wish it got a streaming licensing here i was going in for cute girls and got...wait no no NO WTF....!! I love the fact some had the balls to turn the genre upside down and beat the living hell out of it, all that aside that's all I can really think of to be honest with you. |

Pretty sure director Akiyuki Shinbo said that he would like to do that, mostly for his own pleasure (he's a well known lolicon after all). The fans in Japan, particularly on 2ch are absolutely loving PMMM. There's no question that it will be the highest selling series of the winter season, and it could even knock Bakemonogatari off its perch in terms of highest selling TV anime on BluRay. |
