Because there were lots of good suggestions! :evil:

But you're right-there are more choices than guild members at the moment. So what I'll do:

Everyone has 24 hours to vote.
Tomorrow at 9pm EST, I will narrow the choices down to the three most popular choices. If there's a 1-all tie like there is now, I will eliminate the one I voted for to keep things fair.
24 hours after that, the most popular wins, and we can all start watching that one. Of course, if we hate it, feel free to rant about it-ranting about bad anime is fun too. :cool:

Alright, the poll has been edited-we now have four options, and we can each vote twice. This should help us narrow it down! :hooray:


Also, to start a bit of discussion, what are people's thoughts on old vs new anime? Which do you prefer?

I'm on the fence. I like both. I prefer the more modern animation style but the storys of older anime tend to be better.
...All would love to be clicked...

I'm also on the fence. I don't think that older anime generally has better stories (then again, I haven't really watched many oldies), but even though I like eyecandy anime, good graphics with a lame story won't move me.

I watched 12 episodes (half of the whole show) of Kanon yesterday and finished it. Since I had already seen other Key Animation series, it was pretty much what I expected - emotional ride with a bit of mysticism. In any case, I should be available for watching one of the choice series, if it wins, because I've had it sitting on my laptop for months now.
If not, then I won't join this time, because I'm challenging myself to watch everything I already have on my lappy before downloading anything new. O.o

Ack, sounds unenjoyable. :sweat: /offers cookies
Just wondering what timeframe do we have to watch the series. I should manage a couple episodes per day/watch the series within a week even with lab work and lectures.
