It does beg the question as to whether this is fair; some of these are continuations of series, which may or may not have been of exceptional quality. So, an unfair anticipation bias may occur, and shows which deserve greater or lower interest levels could have been placed higher or lower on the list.


I'm anxiously awaiting Fate/Zero, by the way Laughing

Some of them have the source material that's popular. It's like saying there's an unfair anticipation bias towards adaptations compared to original works no one knows about.

I really looking forward to watching Hyouka now...I want to see more of Eru animated.

Yes, but we are talking about anime; not manga and graphic novels, but actual moving images, in color, with sound. That's why I didn't factor in "source material".

I swear I saw an article similar to this before. Anyways, interesting poll although I don't agree with the rank #1.

Glad Accel World and Medaka Box are in the top 10 though, deserves it.

And, I mentioned source material because it's half and half. There will be those fans who are highly interested in the sequel to see certain events adapted or hopefully the 2nd season is a better adaptation of events compared to the first, for example.

Yes, but then that still does not consider the unfair disadvantage given to the many titles that don't have literary source material -- like many on this very list -- (i.e. Ginga e Kickoff!!, AKB0048, Hiiro no Kakera, tsuritama, etc) vs something like the Fate/Zero series and Eureka. So, it isn't 50-50.

Hence, the unfair anticipation bias.

I can accept people being a bit more excited for other series. It's natural. But I don't agree that their parti pris interest is particularly merited. That's all.

Nature of the beast, can't anticipate something we don't know much about. Although I'd kind of like to see how the ranking would look if people were allowed to vote for more than 1 show.

Anyway my top choices would be Fate/Zero and Hyouka.
