Difference between revisions of "Top 10 Anime by Year"

Revision as of 08:50, 5 June 2012

Overview

Each year since 2006, ADTRW posters pick their top five anime that finished airing in that year. These results are then compiled into a list, showing how many people listed each show in their top five. Listed on this page are the top ten from each year's list, along with the number of votes each show received.

Note: This is a collective opinion of those ADTRW posters who elected to post in the thread. You may not like some of these shows, or may find other shows from the year that you do like!
