Aw, Rebecca didn't get Flip Flappers. I felt her first episode review was the most interesting one. Also Aw, Jacob didn't get Izetta. I was hoping for more trashing the Guilty Crown dude.

Everything I'm watching got in, that makes me happy. Only ones I follow that I was concerned for were Nanbaka, Classicaloid and All Out, so I'm happy to see those get in. Especially looking forward to Gabriella's The Great Passage and Yuri on Ice reviews, as well as Nick's March Comes in Like a Lion reviews, those shows are a great fit for those two, and I always look forward to their writing. Although, I do have to feel sorry for Gabriella, getting Occultic;Nine, I'm sure that will be very er, interesting to watch. Also surprised to see Jake covering Flip Flappers, I expected that to be more Nick's style, but I'm eager to see his coverage of it.

Same! I always love reading her reviews whenever literature is involved and fairy tale analysis. But looking forward to read her BSD 2 reviews!

Glad Great Passage will be covered since it hasn't premiered yet. Yay, Nick has March Comes like a Lion, Theron's covering Keijo, Lauren has my beloved Natsume, and Gabriella will tell how gay Yuri on Ice will be!!

I'm quite pleased with the result, almost every show i voted for made it, including The Great Passage.

Maybe i'm a bit sad that Bloodivores wasn't picked because it seems to have true trainwreck potential and it's always nice to have someone to share the pain...on that note, definitely gonna read Gabriella reviews for Occultic;Nine, even though i'm not planning to actually watch the show (yet).

Aw, the Ping Pong Girls didn't make it, after such a nice second episode even! But I can't complain, everything else I voted for managed to get in. Even Nanbaka rose slightly in my view with its second episode.

I'm glad The Great Passage got picked up but I'm scared that Amazon won't simulcast it. They haven't announced anything about it as far as I can see and it starts airing tomorrow.

Maybe they'll license it to Crunchyroll? That's the only way I could see it not being announced yet since CR tends to announce simulcasts the day before or day-of.

Glad to see Rose got ClassicaLoid as well as Theron reviewing Brave Witches and Keijo!!!!!!!! As well seriously surprised Occultic;Nine got picked up I voted for it but man that first episode was rough. While Paul getting Magical Girl Raising Project should be interesting and James covering Drifters should be worth a read as well.

All the important shows are being covered. Fall 2016 is shaping up nicely for me. And there are finally two candidates (in Yuri!!! on Ice and March Comes in Like a Lion) that can battle Showa Genroku Rakugo Shinju for best anime series of the year.

I see Theon drew the shows you watch on your own card.

Most everything I voted for is here. Kinda surprised to see WIXOSS, Trickster, and Brave Witches here. I mean I'm watching them but I didn't know there were enough people that wanted coverage of them. Slightly disappointed that BBK and Magic of Stella aren't here but it is what it is. Slightly less shows than last season (28 vs 30 last season). James finally wasn't stuck with the Chaos Dragon like the last two seasons. Speaking of, any bets on Chaos Dragon? Going by the first episode ratings, Occultic;Nine seems to be the lead contender, though a few are not too far above. Though the more interesting thing is probably AOTS, as there are plenty of contenders for that here.

Nah, this is par for the course with Amazon at this point. For whatever reason they've elected to just never bother marketing their simulcasts - Battery didn't even have a show page until the first episode started streaming.

Ah, good to know. It's a shame they make an exclusive deal like that without any intention to promote it but at least it's reassuring to know this is standard procedure.

Yeah, I'm bummed on that too... But I'm pleased that Nick got Euph, which was probably a given since he covered the first series.

Of those, Trickster is the only one that surprises me. I would have been shocked if BW didn't get voted in, as the series it spins off from has always been popular and fairly well-regarded around here, and Lostorage had a 3.5 viewer rating, which is usually high enough to assure that the series will get enough votes to make the cut.

Among other titles which made it, the big surprise for me is ClassicaLoid; would have bet money against that one. Among titles which didn't make it, the mild surprise (and disappointment) was Matoi the Sacred Slayer.

As for Bloodivores, that one has the lowest reader rating that I can ever remember seeing in a Preview Guide (1.9 as I write this), so it's no surprise it didn't make the cut.
