Touring After the Apocalypse
Its comparatively low ratings on both CR and MAL don't reflect all of the quality detail work which goes into this series or the expansive mystery it spins. |

Ginga Tokkyuu Milky☆Subway - Milky☆Subway, The Galactic Railroad
Shorts series tend to get looked over by awards, but damn if this wasn't one of the best of the year. Last edited by DoodlestheGreat on Fri Nov 21, 2025 2:33 am; edited 1 time in total |

My first pick would be
Lord of Mysteries The animation, english voice acting, world building, are all great. People seem to get overwhelmed by the first few episodes but like Baccano, following the plot is worth the effort. Was hoping it would get more waves globally like To be Hero X did. If it is not eligible for some weird reason then I'd nominate the following. I Want to Escape from Princess Lessons Last edited by <('_')^ on Fri Nov 21, 2025 9:33 am; edited 2 times in total |

One of the most unique takes on the Hero's Journey, unexpectedly complex characters and their unusual treatment in the narrative kept me entertained and engaged to the end and pining for S2. Last edited by Hiroki not Takuya on Fri Nov 21, 2025 11:34 am; edited 1 time in total |
