What does your top 5 anime say about you?
As I was listing down my 5 favourite anime in an anime forum (trying to farm for posts to sell my figures you see), I was surprised how much one could infer from your top 5. In that thread, there were through and through Gundam fans, Typemoon fans, shoujo fans, very new anime fans (where all 5 ...

Top 5
chizumatic.mee.nu — Top 5 Stripey asks , "What does your top 5 anime say about you?" An interesting question. It's been a long time since I've even thought about a top 5 list, so I had to stop for a moment. But here it is: Dragon Ball Z Mahou Shoujo Lyrical Nanoha A's Banner of the Stars Divergence Eve: Misaki Chronicles Shingu: Secret of the Stellar Wars So what does that say? I like engaging characters engaged in desperate struggle for the highest possible stakes. Posted by: ...

To marathon or not to marathon? A little fun with numbers.
Rabbit Poets: Blogging about Anime — ... It started with Stripey’s post about what your top 5 says about you. And in my comment, I realized that of my 5 favorites, 4 came from 2007 (Code Geass, Gurren Lagann, Seto no Hanayome, Higurashi Kai), and the other candidates aired in 2006 (Haruhi season 1, Higurashi season 1). And then I realized all of those were shows that I had marathoned. So it got me thinking. Is there something about watching a show weekly that takes away from my enjoyment of it? Alternately, was I subconsciously boosting the scores and memories of shows I did marathon? I hypothesized ...

Stripey’s Top 5
アニ・ノート — In regards to Stripey’s Top5 meme , I documented changes to the composition of titans before, but to summarize for the meme: 1. Azumanga Daioh 2. Haibane Renmei 3. Gakuen Utopia Manabi Straight 4. Tengen Toppa Gurren-Lagann 5. Nodame Cantabile (original) Shingu , not unexpectedly present on SDB’s Top5 , is pushing from below and is on half-titan mark together with Nodame . So, I had to make hard choices. This entry was posted on Tuesday, October 27th, 2009 at 7:26 pm and is filed under anime , meta .

N-list Self-Diagonistics
Omonomono — Mentioned here via Ani-note–basically, your favorite anime say something about you. No brainer. But it’s fun. And I’m in the mood to write some no-brainers. As corollary, any kind of list which exercises the arbitrary selection process (eligible for copyright?) is probably saying more about the entity that makes the list than the list itself. Which is to say most top-n-entity survey lists are pretty dumb because it’s put together by a mob of people. Or it’s probably worth pointing out that your #2-5s say more about ...

What My Top 5 Anime Says
HappySoda — ... Everyone has a top 5 list, but Stripey tacks a question on it and it’s an easy post, so I bit; what does your top 5 anime list say about you? I’ve not thought about what my favorites are for a while. Thinking about it for a few, today my top 5 are: ...

Cut Out A Slice and Put A Spin On It
Drastic My Anime Blog — ... By TheBigN So, following Stripey’s lead, I’ll list my top 5 favorite anime at this moment: Gakuen Utopia Manabi Straight Haibane Renmei Kino’s Journey Aria The Origination Hidamari Sketch I find it’s more fun to find out what others think compared to my own opinion  in cases like these (un”my”ased opinion and all that), so if you care, what do you think this list says about me? What do you think this list doesn’t say about me that would ...

Two Top 5 Anime Lists
Continuing World — ... that get me through the day and keep me from turning into a misanthropic shithead just by thinking about them. I know it’s a weird criteria, but this list is the main driver for me to watch more anime. My MAL favorites would be a hybrid of these two lists, based on raw liking alone (#1 is #1 purely because I like it more than #2, and so on). What do you think? Related reading: Stripey starts the ball rolling [->] Author pimps and puts out his own [->] omo has ...

The reveal
Anime² — ... My anime list, no matter on MAL or Melative, has finally reached the 50 completed entries mark. Whereas Melative generally clumps seasons together to just one entry, the number there is one less than needed. But hey. With exceptions of Miyazaki’s works I watched all these anime from Fall 2008 to now, Fall 2009. I am now just one more time the same away from the noobness level of your average aniblogger. And so, why not catch the flame of Hontou ni and list my Top 5? Considering that today the first, again surprisengly tiring week of school after the holidays ...

Top 5 Worst Shows
Eye Sedso — ... What’s the deal here? All of a sudden there seems to be some obsession with people’s top 5 shows. Suddenly top ten isn’t good enough? Now we need to narrow it down to top 5? Why don’t we skip the progression and just state our number one? Or go in the other direction and state our top 200 (I can’t do that, because I don’t have enough). People are talking about how their top 5 and how it reflects them, but just to be different, and go against the grain ...

Remembering Love On Halloween: Daa! Daa! Daa! and Aka-chan to Boku
The Scrumptious Anime Blog — ... I was just an apathetic viewer and didn’t love animes until recently. Oh so wrong. I contemplated on including Daa! Daa! Daa! and Aka-chan to Boku in my Top5 animes when I first joined MAL, then changed my mind when I realized how juvenile it was. I wasn’t able to think this through, I thought to myself; That having this on my list shows my poor taste, especially when matters of image and what my list says about me is involved. Perhaps I felt guilty, that I was including an ...

Playing Favorites: Categorizing Anime
GAR GAR Stegosaurus - the champagne was Canadian... — ... (and more!) on the subject of ranking one’s “favorite” shows or what one consider to be “good” (or the best!) shows out there. What constitutes a “good” show? Is designating something a “guilty pleasure” legit? Can we make lists for our “all-time” favorites and also have one for “current” favorites? The mind boggles! ...

At this point, knowing what my top 5 should say about me is a massive no-brainer
