is it silly to hope things like oyasumi punpun have any hopes for events like this. It seems like it's just a trendy poll for modern favs than *anything*

I've just finished revisiting Berserk. I watched the 1997 anime then the 2016/2017 series and finally the Golden Age movie trilogy which was my first time watching. Then I spent the next couple of weeks re-reading the manga which hadn't progressed much since the last time I read it close to 10 years ago.

It was the 97 anime that got me into Berserk a bit over 10 years ago and after having seen the Golden Age movie trilogy I honestly think it's still the best animated adaptation the manga has had so far. In spite of some of the flaws that I picked up on during my second viewing.

If I could have my preference I would like to see the Black Swordsman and Lost Children arcs adapted. For that matter animated in a similar style to the 97 anime. Bring back the original team and give them some more money to work with than they had the first time around.

Maybe that recently released KnM sequel manga, maybe?

Or any manga involving large muscular women and being 98 percent part of the cast?

Is it limited to manga that haven't received an anime adaptation in the past so that I can't just vote for a new season of Minami-ke or Gabriel DropOut (preferably with Masahiko Ohta as director for both shows)?

If I feel like attempting to piece together a coherent message in Japanese (which involves a lot of checking grammar books and then copying and pasting because I don't have the ability to write a straight message in Japanese on this PC but I also don't trust Google Translate not to mess up the meaning of what I intend to write), I'd probably vote for Wakame Konbu's Jahy-sama Won't Be Discouraged but I don't know if "because I like comedies with devil girls who are ultimately good people" is a sufficient reason since I think the bottom panel requires that you justify your vote.

As far as I know it's only for manga released in 2020. Sad

...But screw it, I'm putting in Trimax anyway

If it's limited to manga released in 2020, I guess I'd pick a different manga by Wakame Konbu, My Recently-Hired Maid is Suspicious, but, unlike Jahy-sama, I don't think there's quite enough source material for a full 12-episode "cour" yet.

It is limited to manga that don't have any sort of adaption (including OVAs like Boukyaku Battery), however only the title and author's name fields are required (I just filled it for 命がけでもたりないのさ filling in in only the first 2 fields and the application went through).

Man, I have been hoping for a TV anime version of the romcom manga "Pastel" for year (at least 6 years).

I'd pick Sousou no Frieren (Frieren at the Funeral). No contest.

Just voted for 10 Dance by Inoue Satoh, because everything Welcome To the Ballroom tried to do, it does better, and also with BL

Strategic voting: putting down something that will likely win.

The Apothecary Diaries. Passed 11 million in total sales this month, anime adaptation is definitely on the way, but no public announcement yet. So voting for this one.

Honkai Impact 3rd needs an anime sooooo much.

Yes, I know the mangas are basically just advertisements for the mobile gacha game. But the game has incredible extended cut scenes and soundtracks that are better than 98% of typical shounen animes out there, and with miHoYo paying top-tier YouTube anime reviewers like Gigguk and Misty Chronexia to shill it you gotta wonder why miHoYo hasn't commissioned an adaptation yet.

The CG work that Wonderium is doing has a fluidity of motion and an emotional depth that is amazing, with extended cut scenes like Reburn, Will of the Herrscher and Final Lession (with an incredible ending soundtrack) that could be strung together as-is with only some intermediate scenes that would kick most shounen fight animes to the curb.

The main risk in an adaptation is over-packing too much material in 13 episodes (see Rewrite). They need to get rid of 90% of the corpus and dump all the side plots and the cross-arcs and just focus on Kiana and her relationship with Mei.

I’d love to see an anime adaptation of Komi Can’t Communicate. I believe that it’s been brought up that this is fairly wanted by fans.
