- Goku Sayonara Zetsubō Sensei

- Natsume Yūjin-Chō
- Soul Eater
- Zoku Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei
Storyboard provides the essence of the sequence, but cutting and linking animation pieces together determines the final product. This is an example of rhythmic montage from Goku Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei.
I like how you made different categories that cover a wide range of things and from what I’ve seen this year and your choices, I’d have to agree with most :) Happy New Year!
I am glad you liked it :)
Happy New Year, Lostty! :)

Very well done! Many of the verdicts I agree with. Some of the rest I can’t assent to – not because I disagree with you but mainly because I was unable to follow a lot of the series profiled here. orz
Happy new year!
Good to hear that you liked the presentation :)
Happy New Year, Diego! :)
Ugh, tried to finish reading the post but the combination of separate page formatting and losing consciousness due to illness forces me to give up prematurely.
Good analysis but only one gripe. Needs more ef :)
:O Please go away from the computer now and get some rest!
Yes, I am aware that Ef is quite good, but I’ll have to see it first :)
Yegads where do you find the time to watch it all!
Keep in mind that this is a post for the entire year. I mention only about a dozen titles and watch about three shows per season. This is a relatively moderate consumption compared to the number of shows some people devour :P
When you put it like that, its not so bad :)
Yup, but it took me a long time to put this post together :P
Very good list. I agree with most of your picks or at least see the logic.
I’d forgotten about the musical from episode 6 of Kure-nai; definitely one of the funniest episodes of the year.
Thank you :)
Yes, that Kure-nai episode was very fun :)

So many pages! I didn’t have time to finish reading all of them, but I agree with at least 90% of your reviews. Good stuff.
Thank you :)
