Not a fan of any of these, so I shall vote for whatever is in last by the end of the poll.

All wack

TheHumourTumour

For the love of god not SG0, its really not worth watching

TheHumourTumour

Ping Pong would be very interesting to watch, heard lots of good stuff about it

SAL

we need some rakuGOAT

Sen Ogino

Ping Pong, everyone! Its time has come! (Or Rakugo, but it's always last for some reason :( )

Mitja Strajnar

Where are Grand blue and hinamatsuri? Next time maybe :D

Lazy_Scorpio

Gonna continue to vote for Rakugo.

zeid c

how about: 3rd slot hxh/ 2nd slot jojo/ 2nd slot monster / or even 2nd slot GTO into a poll instead of this poll lol

Anonymous

Ping pong is incredible in how much depth is packed in it and how it fleshes out so many characters in only 11 episodes. Now that haikyuu is nearing its end I think ping pong would be a great replacement for the sports genre.

Araragi Senpai

Rakugo, by far it's not even a contest.

JayKay

Waiting for the day when "The world is still beautiful" is on the list...

Ghoul

STEINS GATE 0. VOTE FOR IT

Spikà

Anohana, c'mon. It's the obvious choice here.

Stew1337

Great, land of the lustrous is incredible and has deep character depth and is considered the best looking cgi anime to date, and some of the animes would be nice if they won (like for the people waiting for steins gate), and then once again people are voting for ping pong, just wow. Almost kind of want ping pong to win just so its out of the way. But anyone reading this, please look into land of the lustrous and consider voting for it, its visually astonishing and has quite the unique story premise that I've never seen before anywhere else.

Kuromizu

Where are my fellow Land of Lustrous fans at?

AardBard

Never got around to actually watching any of these, but based on what I've heard about the shows, I'll give Ping Pong and Rakugo a vote.

Dave Lorenz

Guys give them Steins:Gate 0 already i can only imagine how badly Caleb wants to watch it :D

Anonymous

I wanna see their discussion of Rakugo sooo bad. It's perfect for their of discussion/analysis...

Yuko

Please ping pong the animation

Anonymous

Go go, Ping Pong!

DrWomanRespecter

This is the most difficult decision of my life

Craig Starbird

Personally I’d love land of the lustrous to win but any of them are fine really. I’m not a fan of half blind reactions so despite Anohana being one of my favorite anime of all time I hope it doesn’t win. The discussions just aren’t as good in half blind series like berserk or your lie in April

Craig Starbird

It’s better for them not to double or triple up on show slots. More variety means a higher chance of new or varied viewers. Plus the people who are only here for one show in particular are less likely to stick around if they blitz through a series in a week rather than taking 3 months to get through

Corsynth

Land of the Lustrous is such a gorgeous show, and is full of potential for discussion. It probably won't win this time, but it still has my vote easily

Anonymous

aka "c'mon it's the only show I watched out of all of these, pick it"

Land of the lustrous please T^T

I can keep hoping for Rakugo

Steins:Gate 0 been meaning to watch/play that forever, this will finally give me an excuse to finally do it.

jordan hold

one day hajime will be in a poll, one day

cinna

Go! Go! Let's Go! Let's go, Rakugo!

Anonymous

i cant wait for the day you start reacting to 'Gintama' i mean its worth every second of my life ^0^

Lord Snail the Slimy

I have almost accepted fate. I have almost came to terms with the fact that they will never watch Rakugo. Almost.

Quinn Kaplan

please steins;gate 0

Extrieve

It's saddening that Rakugo will probably lose this pole *again*

Damiester

Guys Ping Pong only has 11 episodes. Can't Steins Gate 0 wait?

Damiester

Considering how Ping Pong is the shortest, I don't see why not?

Damiester

Grand Blue's rather recent and Hinamatsuri showed up once already before with decent amount of fans.

Anonymous

Rakugo pls i cant go through this again ;n;

RedBoi

R-rakugo will win eventually..... right? :/

Ace of Blades

Steins;Gate 0 please. It’s been on so many polls and deserves it.

Damiester

23 episodes + OVA man... that's double the amount of most of the other shows. Not to mention, all of the listed shows are veterans.

fatiqsue

Oh man, SG0 and Land of the Lustrous in 1 poll. I really want both but Lustrous will probably lose, rip.

JJ

what happened to Overlord?

Shumma12

Vote for ping pong!!! Also its only 11 episodes!

No0neAtAll

it is time for Steins:Gate 0

_kags

One of the best sports shows out there, short and sweet! Vote for ping pong! Can you imagine how amazing the discussion portion of the ep is gonna be

_kags

Ping pong’s only 11 eps! Can’t SG-0 wait? It’s one of those shows they’re definitely gonna watch eventually because of recency and hype but there’s no telling how much longer an older lesser well-known show like PP’s gonna be on these

Anonymous

I dont plan to watch any of these but i voted ping pong just for u :)

Anonymous

I really hope Ping Pong is gonna win this one. Very underated series that deserves more attention.

yukiyaya

I guess Rakugo will never win *sigh*

DrWomanRespecter

I think I can win the lottery twice before Rakugo wins a poll ;-;

Xeltos

Anohana never gonna make it ;-;

Kyle Green

I still wish Oregairu would show up on a poll XD

Alekaid

I know, right!? I love S;G but I want Rakugo to get some love too.

Anonymous

Ping Pong would be such a good move! I love these other shows, but if you look around at other reactions, practically nobody has done ping pong. It’s character driven, which they love, and short, and it would be one of their first real departures from an anime with traditional animation. It’s got so many positives!

Anonymous

Land of the Lustrous was the most underrated anime of 2017. It has to be that or steins;gate

Connor Brown

Pulling for ping pong! Yuasa Masaaki has made so many incredible shows and movies, but I think Ping pong is his best work. There is so much to talk about in this show!

Ezutess

Anything but the disappointment that was steins gate 0

bennydelon

wait a minute, I thought "Ken no mas" meant "just Ken" but I just noticed it could also mean "Ken no more" which is it? lol

RandomThorn

I was worried that Overlord wouldn't get on this poll since it was on the last one, sad to see that's true. I don't mind watching these shows, just really hope Overlord get's a fair shot

Anonymous

Ping Pong is a masterpiece, it goes beyond being a "sports anime". Fingers crossed it wins this poll

Cade Hartman

Let's go Ping Pong!

J-Black

They do it by genre I believe, so Overlord wouldn't fit in with this poll.(*coughthankgodcough*) I imagine it'll be on the poll for the Kill la Kill replacement show when they finish that though.

Av

Every time a new poll is posted I cross my fingers that OreGairu will show up..

J-Black

I have never seen any of these and had only heard of one. Picked what I thought looked most entertaining and least cutesy (Ping Pong) and am glad I actually agree with the majority this time ha. Unless things change in 4 days, but we shall see.

Emmanuel

P I N G P O N G

Yuion

Can anyone give a brief explaination why ping pong is worth it? Im more on the Steins;Gate side but ping pong seems to be very popular

Minashiro Soushi

Comparing to something like Rakugo, it isn’t, really. It’s just one of those artsy shows, that gain traction due to going “against mainstream” in some fashion (animation and art style, in this case). Personally, I can’t stomach it, as it intentionally makes character designs look disgusting for “shock value” and I don’t find that appealing.

Moritz Weissenberger

Again... poor Steins;Gate can't catch a break :/ Caleb might have to wait another 11 weeks before he is allowed to watch it :( Come on guys! The sad scientist is waiting!

Kopplex

Ffs no SG, give a chance to other shows! I think Anohana is the best replacement for Your Lie In April, they play on the same emotional level.

DrWomanRespecter

I mean it's been denied three times, so if anything you should give S;G a chance. However, I wouldn't mind a Rakugo/Ping Pong reaction either

Lord Snail the Slimy

*sigh* Well, seeing how behind everything Rakugo already is, I'm going to vote for Ping Pong and Land of the Lustrous. v-v)=3

EvAnn

Yup, that's just sad. Especially when you know how much sos bros would come to appreciate a show like that. Or at least I feel like they would. I hope someday they decide to pick a show that came last.

Moi

Ugh I really want them to watch Land of the Lustrous...

Lazy_Scorpio

It is indeed. There is a lot for them to discuss here, but it keeps losing...

Generation Wumbo

I legitimately can't believe Ping Pong is doing so well. The show is fucking fantastic but pretty under watched. Rakugo will hopefully get its day in the sun someday.

Ghoul

steins gate 0 needs to happen at all costs.

SmilePlease

Only so few Rakugo fans. :(

R_K41

Need Rakugo to win this, it's unfair how underrated it is

Vern

I haven't seen any of these. But I've seen the Ping Pong guys suffer each vote. So they get mine trying something new.

Mokyaffe

Anohana pls

Quinn Kaplan

As some one who just binge watched through steins;gate 0 i must say that there are currently no good reactions for it so i am hoping for steins;gate 0

Sourisforme

Let's go Ping Pong!

Ping Pong finally getting some love

Damiester

Half-blind tho.

JelloJelly

After finishing S;G0 how can you not vote for it

Anonymous

So much people dismiss Ping Pong because of the art and it irks me to no end. Just because the characters don’t look like perfect pretty boys or kpop stars doesn’t mean its a bad looking show. The visual presentation and directing in Ping Pong is phenomenal, and is probably one of the most consistently well animated shows I have ever seen. The show presents its characters in a very real and visceral way, and the way they are drawn reflects that. It kind of reminds me of Mob Psycho when people kept saying the show looked ugly, but when they actually watched it realized how visually impressive it was.

Anonymous

tbh Ping Pong is a wonderful show

Anonymous

I really hope S;G:0 wins this. Although it did have its occasional flaws, it was a fantastic conclusion to the series nonetheless; with probably the most satisfying protagonist arc/development in any series I've watched.

Anonymous

Steins;Gate is longer and just finished. Many of us have been fiending for Ping Pong the Animation for ages. Please support it, as Steins;Gate will surely win one of the next 2 polls coming up shortly.

DrWomanRespecter

There is a Blu-ray coming out in a few months, Whitefox is improving the animation quality and a few mistakes, that would be a good time to watch it

Anonymous

Anohana please, let me see the tears

Lord Snail the Slimy

Hey... We can't lose hope just yet... Some time ago I didn't think a show like Monster could ever win a poll, but look where we are. Rakugo most likely has less fans (or just less people have actually watched it), but after seeing Monster win, I can't help but think that some day there could be a chance for Rakugo as well. That being said, Rakugo is currently last, and even Anohana has more votes... *sob*

Anonymous

Land of the Lustrous were second place in a previous poll and keeps getting votes but it feels like they'll never pick it ):

Andy L

Ping Pong the Animation!!!! Best 11 episode Anime you're ever going to see.

Coen

Steins;Gate 0, we can do this!

_kags

11 eps of character-driven brilliance! (And You KNOW the Bros love character-focused shows!) Every main character is so fleshed out and given the room to develop realistically; you’ll probably end up liking and rooting for almost all the characters

Quinn Kaplan

Come on Steins;Gate

_kags

Come on Ping-Pong!!! Please give it a shot, guys who haven’t voted yet, it’s 11 episodes long and bloody amazing, you won’t regret choosing it (and on the 0.01% chance that you do, it’ll be out of your skin faster than any other show out there). As for the art, because there’s a guy here who genuinely hates it (and you’ve doubtless heard from others too), do you think I and the 20 other people cheering for it in the comments would even be here doing this if the art’s actually such a dealbreaker?? It's weird and misshapen and ugly, yes, but 1. I think you’ll get used to it pretty quickly and 2. it’s refreshingly unique and suits the show brilliantly, giving it a style that’s completely its own. Ping Pong isn’t so much a sports anime as it is a story about growing up, and all the pain and joy and frustration that comes with it. I laughed and cheered and cried watching this, and binging it left me happily drained afterwards. Awesome show.

Shumma12

11 episodes of this beautiful emotional roller coaster, im praying it wins!

KasaiKouhai

come on steins gate

_kags

Pls ping pong, finish strong

Akiyo

Wow, Anohana used to be so popular back in the day. I can't believe it's losing so badly :(

Lord Snail the Slimy

Hey there, congratulations to Ping Pong fans! You have suffered long enough :')

Jaguar Man

OOOOH yes Ping Pong the animation! Whoooooo

vHakii

IM SO FUCKING GLAD THIS IS HAPPENING
