of all writers voting
Aidan: A lot of things can happen in a decade, though two of those things appear not to be flying cars and self-tying shoes. Ten years is a long time and a lot of anime has been made. Just going by an average of 30 shows a season, in ten years that would mean 1200 anime series made. 360,000 minutes of entertainment, though don’t check my math on that. To consider the amount of work that has gone into the creation of so many shows is truly mind boggling and is worth my utmost respect. So late as we are to the party, we decided to make a list of the top fifty shows of the decade. Take note that this list was the product of all writers voting, so any complaints about what should be here or why something isn’t higher on the list can be reserved for the democratic process. This is mainly just a list for fun and maybe a resource for anyone to take a peek at a show or movie they might have missed. So to cap off this decade of shounen brawls, otherworldly reincarnation, animated waifus and all of the emotions, let us reel off some of our personal favorites. And may there be many decades of anime to come to show the world just what animation is capable of.
