2010 will be over in a few days, so it’s time for that year-end exercise: the year-end rankings of the shows that I watched. I’m quite early from my usual schedule. Whew! Now what else to do on New Year’s Eve? 😀

Take Twos: An Anime Progress Report on Previously Ignored Shows
Sometimes, being too selective has its disadvantages. For somebody like me who likes my shows a bit serious, without moe or harems or ecchi etc if possible, the tipping point was the weight of real-life worries. Not only did I not like to watch sad shows that would make my mood even sink further, I wanted to seek out lighter shows from my usual fare.

The only faint hope is Nodame Cantabile Finale, and I don’t have high expectations even for this one. The next thing that captures a faint interest is Katanagatari, as the pic doesn’t look too fanservicey. An automatic entry is Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn because it’s mecha.
The other series I will take a look at for the possible lulz (along the lines of Miracle Train), are Dance in the Vampire Bund for the lolis and Sex Pistols out of curiousity. 😛
