Frieren somehow got even better. I honestly didn't think Season 2 could live up to the first one.
One Piece is reminding everyone why it's still the king after all these years.
JJK S3 has been absolutely insane. MAPPA really cooked.
Witch Hat Atelier deserves WAY more attention. The art style alone is beautiful.
Elbaph has been worth the wait.
Frieren wins for storytelling.
JJK wins for animation.
One Piece wins for hype.
Hell's Paradise is so underrated.
Witch Hat Atelier surprised me the most this year.
My vote went to Frieren but honestly 2026 has been stacked.
Can we appreciate how healthy anime has been this year? Almost every season has had something worth watching.
Elbaph is making every Sunday feel like an event.
JJK's fights have been unreal.
Story + animation. That's why Frieren gets my vote.
People sleeping on Hell's Paradise again...
This is honestly one of the hardest Anime of the Year polls I've seen.
Mine is Daemons of the Shadow Realm. It's been fantastic.
The production quality across the board has been ridiculous.
Every year I say anime peaked... then the next year proves me wrong.
Witch Hat Atelier has the prettiest backgrounds I've seen in years.
I don't even care who wins. We're getting spoiled as fans.
Frieren has that rare "I don't want the episode to end" feeling.
This poll would've looked completely different five years ago.
I came for the poll... left with new anime recommendations.
One Piece fans eating good this year 😂
Can we all agree we're the real winners with this lineup?
My answer changes every month 😂
