Board 8 > ~^~ Board 8's 2017 Anime Awards ~^~ The Results

(+) Yeah! (+)

This topic's only been up for three days.

And? I'm talking about all the times you've said "I can't believe nobody watched or talked about blank" when I'd watched or talked a out said show on several occasions.
---

I'll take a long hard look at what to do next year.

But not too long.

Gotta also consider Anime of the Decade.

AOTY is p much a spinoff of when I was way more into anime and did a yearly personal top 10.
---

Whenever I say "nobody" I'm generally exaggerating at least a little bit. Or ribbing at you a bit.

Anime of the decade wouldn't be for a couple years...
---

We could always do one forlast decade!
---

My thing right now is that more people are interested in removing Disappointing than are wanting it kept in. And I'd say it's safe to assume that most people don't really care. If a category has more negative attention than positive, why would you keep it in? If your excuse is that this is a "year in review", then, well, why not have a worst anime category? Why not have other negative categories as well? At that point, though, I'd probably be out, since that's not my definition of fun.
---

People usually don't finish stuff they truly think is bad, so worst anime is a bad idea. Also leads to people wanting to vote for things they didn't actually watch.
---

My point is that it's obviously not a "year in review" then
---

Give me this thing and I'll show you some fuckin' categories next year.

All aboard Best Dressed Character.
---

I will just continue to not vote in Disappointing for the same reason as tazzy stated. There's just no fun in being negative for me personally
---
