We're coming up on the end of ZOM 100, so it's time for another poll!  As such we'll be getting this poll done in advance, so we all know what's coming next.

Vote for ANY AND ALL shows that you would like to see us react to! We always take note of which shows get plenty of votes, but don't win. Whichever gets the most votes we will release early access reactions on the Sunday when the final ZOM 100 reaction goes public.

NOTE: Jacob has seen Samurai Champloo and the first two seasons of Chihayafuru!

Thank you all so much for your continued generous support!

K-on for the win!!!!!

Morringhan

Bakuman is so precious!

simplegunner

i want them to ejoy K-on, maybe then ill remember to finish it

Arasi

Skip-beat is great

MechaNeko

How could anyone not pick Ghost in the Shell? The analysis ammunition the series provides is insane!

DBR

Tempted to vote K-on! but I just know they'd love Bakuman.

Francesca White

Chihayafuru is so goooood also I love skip beat but I doubt it'll ever win 😭😭

Fumi フミ

while Samurai champloo is amazing, a half reaction is kind of a bummer next to the other amazing things on the list that both of them havent seen. My vote is for Bakuman on this one, created by the same people behind death note

Alba Zawa

Skip beat and Chihayafuru :Prayge:

WuYixiang

I can only vote for one on this poll. :/ How is GitS ranking so low!?

XWF Outlaw

Bakuman: 75 Episodes Chihayafuru: 72 Episodes (+OVA) Ghost in the Shell: S.A.C.: 52 Episodes (+Movie) K-On: 39 Episodes (+Movie) Samurai Champloo: 26 Episodes Skip-Beat: 25 Episodes

Taekom

@XWF Outlaw - Oh so we're in for some time... Thanks for the info !

Blue lock

Nuwagoo

I need a K-On! Sweep

zezibesh

Stand Alone Complex bros... not again...

Oh my god, Chihayafuru is finally on a poll after all these years. I'm sure it won't win, but this still feels like one step closer to it actually being watched here. Maybe one day..

Yuion

They have not seen K-On yet? Damn, that has to be fixed asap

KEN K

I hope they watch PLUTO someday.

Shadowcam

Ghost in the Shell would easily get the best discussions of any show on this list. It's still THE Cyberpunk anime 20 years later.

Lukas

bakuman won't win but it would be worth watching simply because it teaches so much about Manga and how it's made.

jonluke santillana

I would love an excuse to watch Ghost in the Shell again oh well maybe next time

Balurion

Would love mawaru penguindrum to show up on a poll sometime. By the same creator as Utena (which they loved)

Anonymous

God, I haven't thought about Skip Beat! in years. Hope you guys get around to it eventually

Lady HowD

Holy shit, never thought I’d see Skip Beat on a poll…

Anonymous

damn! alot of good ones in here, but imma vote chihayafuru THE GOAT!!

Anonymous

skip beat..... my beloved........

camel.d

I hope you watch frieren from this season, it's great.

Skip Beat needs more love T-T

Charlie baker

Damnit ghost is that shit but im glad other stuff is beating it simce they wouldnt watch the dub of it unfortunately lol

Ruben Lopez

FOR THE LOVE OF GOD PLEASE CHOOSE CHAMPLOO! *sees GITS* Well...that wouldn't hurt...

Christopher Ross

K-on hype but I'm also fine with Champloo. It's nice to finally get a poll where the lead runners are shows I actually watched lol

Francesca White

I read Bakuman a few years ago and it is somehow one of the most misogynistic manga I've ever read 😭😭

Payam Sharifi

It was on the previous poll and won, so we should see it in a couple days as the Summertime Rendering replacement

Ica

The Japanese VAs are very good though.

Nora Murren

here to root for K-On!

Anonymous

I want Blue Lock in a poll again 🙏

Isaku Saito

Samurai Champloo! It's a classic people. Please. I beg you. And you.

Imani Brooks

If you do Samurai Champloo, please do the dub! It's a masterpiece!

Anonymous

It’s so funny that they don’t even realize Zom100 is nowhere close to being over.

Anonymous

Champloo isn't a bad choice, but I would love Chihayafuru so, so much

Alix

chihayafuru is SOOOOOO good oh my god i need them to watch it so badly, absolutely one of my all-time faves. also, k-on is TOP TOP TOP tier, i almost can't believe they haven't already seen it.

RandomThorn

obligatory post to remind people that, as it states in the poll, Jacob has seen Samurai Champaloo and the first two seasons of Chihayafuru. Now I normally never vote for re-watches but Chihayafuru holds a special place in my heart that I am willing to make what would likely be the ONLY time I will make such an exception

Aye Jaye

Damn, GITS SAC in 5th place. I'm happy I see it on a poll, but I'm guessing I won't be seeing the bros react to it any time soon. Stoked about Samurai Champloo though.

Gordon Lou

noooo, rip bakuman

Edrei Z.

Bakuman will probably never win a poll, but it's a really must watch because it's a romanticised look into how the manga industry works in Japan, right down to how cut-throat it is or how it gets adapted to anime.

RoboArmadillo13

Was really hoping for GitS SAC but it looks like that won't be the case.

Morkt

Except it is. After episode 9 it is on indefinite hiatus.

Ahjenta

This is why I didn’t want them to react to Zoom 100 so soon. Now we get a fragment of a season and that’s it.

L.C.

You couldn't have added some better options for the poll huh.... -_- Great...

Anonymous

Damn, was really hoping for Blue Lock to be on the poll, oh well.

Ethan Durant

Bakuman the best show on the list but it’s never gonna win just take it off of polls at this point

Anonymous

My eyes damn near popped out of their sockets when I saw Samurai Champloo on the list. I hope it wins!

お願いします。。けいおん!を見てください。。

けいおん!は日本でヲタクを増やしたアニメです🙇

Ryuuji Gremory

Just reading the first half I was about to say it's not "that" romanticised but yeah with that second half I can wholeheartedly agree with everything you said.

Francesca White

Maybe you should reread it cuz one of the main characters literally says women can never understand the dreams of men and that women are better off becoming wives and that women who try hard to be really smart are unattractive. This is all treated as true by the story

Ryuuji Gremory

Except that that main character at that point is a stupid middle school kid, that never had an actual relationship, acting like a know it all. You are also twisting his words a bit, as he is actually complimenting a girl for being really smart but not putting on airs, not being so fixated on appearing intelligent that she becomes inapproachable or condescending because of it (an opinion that is based on an actual character that he knows), not only having smarts but also the emotional intelligence to cleverly move in social groups. Furthermore there is the whole topic of pursuing your dreams and making them come true through hard work, literally putting your carrier before romance, spanning the entire series. (the very opposite of "women are better of just becoming wives") You are also ignoring the entire rest of the manga that criticises the hang ups and problems the Japanese entertainment industry has with certain stereotypes for women. And even if it was exactly as you say and that was the entire message of the series, and not just a stupid thing a character said in chapter 2 of 176, I am pretty sure I could find a bunch of manga that are way worse.

Francesca White

I think you need a reread. There's literally a scene where the mc's mom is against him becoming a mangaka but she's convinced by the father who says "women can never understand the dreams of men". This makes her let him become a mangaka. You are blinded by your affection for this series.

nerolisk

Bakuman is too good to not be winning these polls

Ryuuji Gremory

So your argument basically shrunk down to "a guy said "this is a man thing that women wouldn't understand"" and that makes it the most misogynistic manga you read. It's a just a stupid saying on the level of boys will be boys. Actually it's very accurately to compare it to that as it's a stupid and reckless thing done despite knowing the risks and reason. Also you ignore the mother refuting the father and understanding what he just claimed women wouldn't understand. I can only see this as not me being blinded by my affection but you being blinded by your need to have it be some vile misogynistic shit. I can only reiterate, if that's your bar on the most misogynistic manga you haven't read many manga.

Please react to pluto as soon as possible

Hibiki

I pray for K-ON! to win!

Wendy

you have NO idea how excited I was to see Skip Beat on this poll!!!! Bakuman is also good but goddamn having a possible Skip Beat reaction series is some miracle level event

Yaana

Hoping for Skip Beat! in the future seeing how you guys really enjoyed Ouran High School Host Club. :)

Alex Perez

One day Bakuman will win… it was the first ever manga series I read beginning to end

Payam Sharifi

I just wanna say, to the Skip and Loafer fans, that I've finally started watching and love it and pledge to vote for it next time it comes up on a poll. In the meantime I'm incredibly excited for Frieren and Champloo.

Poppylocks

No, my skip beat!! It's a good show too... Though I didn't even know it was in the running.

TheFihr

Still no K-on reaction.. so close yet so far.. one day... the wait will be over.

Jerkwater

Pluto...

LetMeLemur

Damn I can't catch any W's on the latest polls.
