Okay. It’s time again for a contest that I hold every year before the start of the Autumn Season: you all nominate one series, and I’m going to force myself to weekly blog that series no matter what. This is your chance to make sure that I blog a certain series, orforce me to cover a series that I normally wouldn’t even think about. It’s all up to you!
Last year I used a survey for it, but in the end that was a bit too much of a hassle to keep up with, so I’m going back to the method I used before, using comments. I’m not going to use a poll, because I want this contest to be amongst my readers. Not random people who just click every poll they happen to stumble upon. Here are the concrete rules:
– To make a valid vote, drop a comment leaving your selection. You can select up to two series from the upcoming Autumn season.
– The anime with the most amount of votes in the end will be blogged for at least 12 or 13 episodes.
– Here is a list of all of the series that are applicable for this contest.
– The poll will end at September 30, 23:59 GMT. All votes that arrive after that will be ignored.
Results will be posted on this topic, though don’t expect me to be as up to date as I used to be during previous years.
Here are the results so far:
Persona 4 – 52
Kimi to Boku – 46
Guilty Crown – 45
Mirai Nikki – 37
Chihayafuru – 28
Shakugan no Shana 3 – 24
Last Exile – Ginkyou no Fam – 25
Fate/Zero – 27
Bakuman 2 – 19
Hunter X Hunter – 22
Un-Go – 27
Tamayura Hitotose – 11
C3 – 13
Boku wa Tomodachi ga Sukinai – 10
Lupin III – 9
Working’!! – 5
Phi Brain – 16
Kyoukai Senjou no Horizon – 4
Ika Musume 2 – 3
Cross Fight Bedaman – 2
Gundam AGE – 5
Shumanchu MiRiKa – 1
Mashiro-Iro Symphony – 2
Ben-To – 4
Maji de Watashi ni Koishinasai – 1
(You’re just a busy body today, aren’t ya? ^w^)
My votes go to Un-Go and Persona 4 The Animation.
Shana 3. Your suffering shall bring me much glorious catharsis.
Besides, you’re going to do the good ones anyway…
But just in case: Last Exile.
UN-GO
Bakuman (would be shame if you didn’t continue)
– Boku wa Tomodachi ga Sukinai
– Tamayura Hitotose
Hey, someone has to blog them, right?
Oh yeah !I hope that you will blog :
Last Exile – Ginkyou no Fam
Guilty Crown
I saw that you have already a good expectations about them ^o^
Ika Musume Season 2 and Persona. (=
Kyoukai Senjou no Horizon
and
C3
Tamayura -Hitotose-
Kimi to Boku
Mirai Nikki
Last Exile – Ginkyou no Fam
Guilty Crown
Chihayafuru
Working’!! .. because you dised it so much and the first series was so awesomely funny
Boku wa Tomodachi ga Sukinai
Persona 4
Kimi to Boku
Chihayafuru
Yes, I’m a slice-of-life fan ^^
in reference to Working’!! .. all the trailers for the new series have no hints of fan service so even with the supposed ‘worst’ director it may still turn out good
Persona 4
Guilty Crown
I vote for Bakuman and Ika-Musume. =D
Hmm, I vote Mirai Nikki and Chihayafuru since I’m on the fence about trying these two and I’d love to see what you have to say about them.
My votes are for Guilty Crown and Tamayura -Hitotose-.
UN-GO and Last Exile.
Chihayafuru
Phi Brain
Mirai Nikki and Hunter x Hunter :3
It’d be great if you can blog a series like Mirai Nikki and Boku wa Tomodachi ga Sukunai. The premise for Tomodachi may seem silly, but the comedy is real and literally made me laugh when I read the manga and I’d love it if you could give it a chance!
Kimi to Boku
Un-Go
Shana III
Last Exile
Shana 3
Bakuman
1. Fate/Zero — B/C I want to see Kiritsugu kick some serious @$$.
2. Guilty Crown — If the main girl makes this a tsundere show, like Shana-ish… Then this series should be avoided.
1. Guilty Crown – sorry, psgels, but this is my revenge for going out of your way to hate on Code Geass when there are far, far worse series out there.
2. Persona 4 – so I can decide whether to play the game before watching it.
Persona 4 and Mirai Nikki.
I liked the Persona 4 game so I hope they don’t wreck it.
1. Bakuman
2. Fate/Zero
Chihayafuru
Phi Brain
There are other interesting shows, but these are the two that I would really like to see you comment on.
My votes:
1. Un-Go
2. Guilty Crown
1. Chihayafuru
2. Phi Brain
Both of these seem like the type of anime that will be ignored by other blogs.
Kimi to Boku
Un-Go
1.Persona 4
2.Kimi no Boku
Un-go
and
CHIHAYAFURU
Ok: Chihayafuru and Last Exile!
(Oh god, I hope Shana 3 will not end up being the winner, there are so many series better than htat :S)
Guilty Crown and C3
Bakuman
Hunter x Hunter
Last Exile
(or if its delayed yet again Gundam Age or Lupin III, though im not expecting much continuity worth blogging)
As a side, though its not anime unlike the Original series I reccomend checking out the new Thundercats, its EPIC and just keeps getting better!!!
1. C3
2. Persona 4
Hunter x Hunter
Chihayafuru
Here’s hoping you blog either Hunter x Hunter or Kimi to Boku.
1. Kimi to Boku
2. Tamayura Hitotose
Mirai Nikki
Bakuman
Kimi to Boku
Chihayafuru
Bakuman
Fate/zero
Hunter x Hunter
Shimanchu MiRiKa and Kimi to Boku~!
Shana III: If you thought Shana 1 and 2 were horrible, try Shana 3, which is could turned out to be surprisingly dark and bleak. If J.S. Staff doesn’t screw up, Shana 3 and the finale will be like the very first story arc of Shana S1, but even darker. A good portion of the main cast will die… and vanish into oblivion. Again, this is assuming J.C. Staff doesn’t screw up. They have waited so many years, the chances that they will screw up is actually pretty low due to the mere pressure from the dedicated fans of the original novels.
I’m pretty sure you won’t blog it, but at least try to watch it. You can skip Season 2 since it was quite a butchered adaptation that left the fans raging hard.
Bleh so many good looking ones to choose from.
My choices
1. Persona 4 The Animation: The game was interesting and the story should hold up well in the hands of the Director of Angel Beats.
2. Mirai Nikki: I like the story and concept behind this one and it will make for an interesting Anime series.
1-Mirai Nikki
2-Chihayafuru
Hope you will pick either one ^^’ Well, I’ll probably watch them anyway.
1- C3 – I liked what I could find of the light novel
2- Mirai Nikki – I would’ve said fate/zero, except I expect it to be strong enough to be blogged anyway.
Mirai Nikki
Cross Fight Bedaman. You shall suffer.
1. Chihayafuru
2. Phi Brain
Please 🙂
seriously guys,don’t vote for series that he will obviously blog (un-go)
-_-
Kyoukai Senjou no Horizon
Tamayura Hitotose
last exile
fate/zero
1st – Shana III – Because I would love to see you blogging a series you hate – I know its not good, but I watched the first 2 seasons, I can’t drop it now, so let’s share the pain -.
2nd – Kimi to Boku
Well I think those two series are the only ones I will watch and you will not blog, that’s why I follow your blog I normally watch the same series you blog/like.

Chihayafuru and Fate/Zero.
Have you ever liked any we’ve chosen for you psgels? I hope for your sake that this year will be different. 🙂
Well since we’re voting to torment psgels I’ll have to pick Shana and Mashiro-iro Symphony. メロンパン メロンパン メロンパン メロンパン メロンパン
Kimi to Boku
Tamayura Hitotose
1. Persona 4
2. Guilty Crown
Shakugan no Shana III
because i like to be controversial ;p
A vote for:
Shana 3
Kimi to Boku
Kyoukai Senjou no Horizon
Boku wa Tomodachi ga Sukunai
It’s funny how a lot of the comments are just choosing shows you were probably going to end up blogging anyway like Fate/zero and Persona 4. You guys should be using your votes to force psgels to blog something he wouldn’t normally give more than a 3 episode chance.
Pretty obvious that psgels is going to blog the shows with the first-glance potential grade of 90%-75%
So:
Kyoukai Senjou no Horizon- those who read the light novels said that this is more than just moe fanservice. It deals with negotiations, battles and debates.
Hunter X Hunter remake- come on, you blog FMA: Brotherhood.
1) Cross Fight Bedaman
2_ Shakugan no Shana III
Wow, you may have to end up blogging Shana III… I’d kill myself if it wins
– Persona 4
– Kimi to Boku
I wanna suggest Bakuman as well but I do agree that there’s not a lot to say about the episodes individually…
These are the anime I will be confirmed on my watchlist but I’m looking forward to you blogging other shows cos you’ll probably make me interested in shows I probably wouldn’t notice. 😛
Chihayafuru
My votes are for
1)Tamayura Hitotose :I really loved Tamayura OVA.I’d definitely watch the anime series (and would like to hear your thought)
The second choice is a tough one.There are a lot of shows which I am planning to see this Fall like HxH,Guilty Crown,Fate Zero,Bakuman….anyways my 2nd choice would be
2)Bakuman :I was one of the regular readers of
your Bakuman posts…so yeah,I’d like to continue 🙂
1.Bakuman
2.hunterxhunter
Last Exile and Lupin III please!
Shana and working please. looks like it’s between Shana and persona right now.
Hunter x Hunter & Persona 4
Come on guys, it’ll be almost 100% sure that psgels will blog the noitamina series and series that he rated the highest in the preview. So I’ll be voting for series that I’m interested in but were kinda in the middle.
1. Mirai Nikki
2. Hunter X Hunter
dont vote for shows he’ll obviously blog. the poll will become useless.
Shana III and Working!!
1. Persona 4
2. Working!!!??@?@
You’d probably watch and enjoy if not blog persona 4 without my vote, but just to push it up. As for Working!! Just because the first one wasn’t really all *that* awful once it got going. I’ve seen worse. and I’ll probably watch an episode or two of the sequel to see if it got any better.
last exile
Kimi to Boku – slice of life w/ all boy cast is very interesting.
Guilty Crown – people above have summed up why i like this show.
Kimi to Boku and Guilty Crown get my vote! 😀
Persona 4
Kimi to Boku ♥
Boku wa Tomodachi ga Sukinai and Shakugan no Shana
trollface.jpg
Aww, I really want you to blog Working’!!, but it seems to not stand a chance right now. But whatever. My votes:
– Working’!!
– Kimi to Boku
Guys, remember to vote for shows with LOW chance of psgels blogging it, aka the shows at the top of the autumn preview post!
For me it is :

– Guilty Crown
– Mirai Nikki
Mirai Nikki
Fate/Zero
-Fate/Zero
-Un-Go
Looking forward to it… And you should add Zero no Tsukaima S4 in the list ? 😮

– Mirai Nikki
Um, C3 and Guilty Crown
Bakuman 2
Fate/Zero
Bakuman 2
Fate/Zero

I’d like to see Kimi to Boku and C³!

Un-Go and Persona 4, plz. I know you would probably blog them anyhoo, but I’m not interested in anything else.
Mirai nikki
Chihayafuru
Persona 4
Guilty Crown
Last Exile – Ginkyou no Fam
Lupin III, the specials have been consistently awesome, so should the series.
I will vote for just one show: Mirai Nikki.
The impact of the manga is undeniable (I find Yuno to be among the most iconic characters of the noughties), and there is a high probability that psgels would drop the show otherwise since the story at the beginning… well let’s just say it’s not one of the strong points of the manga.
My votes are for Persona 4 beacuse its seems a much better adaptation than the previous one, and Fate Zero, beacause Fate in thats costume´s looks awesome XD.
Chihayafuru
Mirai Nikki
and I’m hoping that you will cover the Noitamina shows definitely!
-Chihayafuru
-Guilty Crown
– Guilty Crown
– Mirai Nikki
Bakuman (because the first series was awesome)
and
Lupin III (because i haven’t seen any Lupin series before and I want your opinion)
Persona 4 and Lupin III
Persona 4
Fate/Zero
Persona 4
(the best game among persona series videogames and the character are likeable especially Kuma)
Mirai Nikki
(the twist in its manga storyplot really make it enjoyable and kind of hard to predict the ending)
persona 4
Boku wa tomodachi
Kimi to Boku
and
Chihayafuru
Guilty Crown
Fate/Zero
Hunter X Hunter
Persona 4
Bakuman 2
Guilty Crown
Mirai Nikki
Tamayura Hitotose
Chihayafuru
Last Exile – Ginkyou no Fam
Other than the Persona 4 adaptation(which I have a feeling will already be a top contender without my help) I’m really curious about Phi-Brain. This season seems a lot less exciting than the past two unfortunately…
Un-Go & Tamayura Hitotose
Guilty Crown
Last Exile – Ginkyou no Fam
Unofficial 3rd choice – Persona 4
As much as I’m gonna enjoy comedy series like Working!! etc, the top 2 look by far the most interesting shows.
1. Lupin III
2. Hunter x Hunter
The other ones I’m interested in, I’m sure you’ll be blogging anyway 🙂
Last Exile
Bakuman
Persona 4
Mirai Nikki
Fate/Zero
Last Exile – Ginkyou no Fam and Shakugan no shana
woo! Here’s my vote.
– Kimi to Boku
– Ika Musume 2
Don’t vote for the shows that he’ll most likely blog. Vote for the ones you want blogged that psgels is not interested in blogging.
1. Shana III
2. Tamayura Hitotose
Persona 4 and Bakuman 2, please.
Kimi to Boku
-Persona 4 The Animation
-Guilty Crown
Un-Go and Last Exile. 🙂
Kimi to Boku
Guilty Crown
Shana III
Maji de Watashi ni Koishinasai
Mirai Nikki
Fate/Zero
Hunter X Hunter
Chihayafuru
Last Exile
Well, yeah, we could vote for crap anime like Battle Spirits Heroes and Maken-Ki or whatever, simply to be douchebags to psgels. Or, we could vote for good shows, the ones we want to see blogged.
Persona 4 and Chiyafuru, please!
I Don’t Have Too Many Friends
Bakuman II
Kimi to Boku
Shakugan no Shana III :3
Persona 4
Kimi to Boku
Persona 4 and Guilty Crown please 🙂
Persona 4 please!
Ben-To is going to be a show to look out for based off of one of the few creative light novels i’ve read in such a stale market i think it deserves as much attention as possible
Guilty Crown
Tamayura Hitotose
Un-go
Last Exile
Pleeease! 🙂
Hunter X Hunter
Phi Brain
PLEASE!!
Persona 4
lol at shakugan no shana 2 that would be hilarious if psgels were forced to blog it lol
Mirai Nikki
Kimi to Boku!!
Mirai Nikki!!
8D
-Kimi to Boku
-Bakuman
-KIMI TO BOKU
-Gundam AGE
I’m quite surprised to see kimi to boku have such a high votes, but it does actually make sense. Other animes I want you to blog (P4, Un-Go, and Guilty Crown) have higher chance to be blogged by you without this voting event than Kimi to Boku.
And I vote Gundam AGE because it needs more love.
…Phi Brain and Ben-To
Phi Brain
1. Persona 4!~
2. Kimi to Boku

Can I vote negative to Shakugan no Shana?
Persona 4 and Guilty Crown please ~ C:
-Kimi to Boku
-Phi Brain
Guilty Crown
(psgels has it lower than I thought he would,also this season shows NoitaminA shows won’t always be blogged)
Mirai Nikki
Yes according to the preview the odds are that he’ll blog it but as a manga reader I absolutely want to be sure he’ll blog it.
Remember folks,Usagi drop was rated a “90%” in the preview and ended up not being blogged
Un-Go
Last Exile
HunterXHunter
Kimi to Boku
Last Exile
Fate/Zero
@totoum, there were only a few slots for the summer season; maybe that’s the reason why Usagi ended up in the Kaleidoscope. This fall season, however, I think we’ll have ten+ (?) open slots. I voted for Mirai Nikki because I wanna make sure he blogs it – but he’ll most likely will do it anyway.
Also we’re seeing almost 200 votes. This might be a first.
Chihayafuru !!! Please please please! Looks so fun. Ps love your blog, keep up the good work!

Guilty crown, Persona
C3, Boku wa Tomodachi ga Sukinai

My 2 votes are for Guilty Crown and Gundam AGE

Mirai Nikki
(even though the manga was a bit boooring -_-)
Hunter X Hunter
Guilty Crown
my vote is for Persona 4 and Gundam Age actually. Persona 4 cause I;m such a big fan of the games and I think it’s worth checking out while Gundam AGE cause I really wanna read your thoughts on this one 😛
Guilty Crown and Mirai Nikki

1. Kimi to Boku
2. Un-Go
3. Persona 4
Thank you!
Only Guilty Crown sounds like a worthy series to blog on.
I prefer ambitious epics, but I do enjoy those slice of life shows like Usagi Drop as a break from the Steins;Gate types.
Kimi to Boku
Guilty Crown
I’m sure you’ll blog Persona 4 anyways, given its popularity, so I’m going to say:
1. Kimi to Boku
2. Bakuman II
Guilty Crown
My nominations are: Hunter X Hunter & Guilty Crown
Mirai Nikki and Last Exile!!!
Fate/Zero. Would love to read your take on that.

Last Exile and Mirai Nikki 🙂
Un-Go
Chihayafuru & Guilty Crown … And I huge NO to Kimi to Boku. It’s so boring I quit half way thru ep. 2, not that I’ve been impressed with Persona 4 either. It seems most of the anime people like this season annoy the &*$% out of me for one reason or another e_e
