They nailed the best mascots with Tippy and Timothy, the best female category is plagued with bad choices though. Gundam and Macross getting best mecha is good especially Gundam, I like the IBO mecha despite there are no beam weapons in the entire installment, it really upped the creative design.

I can't believe trash like Koutetsujou won so many awards, looks like we'll be seeing a second season for sure.
Best Female Character
Rem (Re:Zero kara Hajimeru Isekai Seikatsu)
At least they didn't make the same mistake on the female characters.

Overall very happy with the results. In the series and movies department, the Monogatari Series ( Koyomimonogatari + Kizumonogatari) and JoJo ranked, Shinobu and Araragi are present in the best male (who also had Allen Walker, who made it better) and female characters section, the seiyuus choice were very good in general (especially Matsuoka's presence, since he honestly deserved it after his role in Re: Zero), and Shaft and David Production being picked as best studios makes it even better.

My only complaints are two:

1) Takahiro Sakurai should have been picked as one of the Best Male Seiyuus. The guy has been very active this year and has delibered great roles like Rohan Kishibe or Reigen Arataka. I personally think he deserved that position way more than Tasuku Hatanaka (who I guess has been picked due his role as Ikoma, who personally, was pretty meh).

2) I don't think the OST of D. Gray Man Hallow was that great to be ranked, I think it was very unmemorable overall (problem that the previous anime also had). Oh, well, at least that means people still care about D. Gray Man despite the hiatus.

People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime.

Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait.

When were the X-designs and best mascott questions introduced in Newtype's survey?

And compared to the late 80s/90s, how relevant did this big poll stay? (was there a big loss of readers for the magazine? etc)

This result sheet teached me at least something ! Mikimoto isn't considered the chara-designer of Kabaneri.

Anyway if this helps make a second season for Kabaneri I'd be glad. I'm very fond of this show even though I'd say it's half-decent at best.

They're nothing but popularity contest.

High School Fleet, Jojo, and Durarara are acceptable on that list.
I'm disappointed that Rakugo and Mob Psycho 100 is not on the list.

It's amazing how consistently & hilariously bad newtype awards are.

Stay garbage as always.

Also people, don't take these awards seriously at all & join me in laughing at the Japanese otakus & aniplex, kadokawa & friends.

If people want to check anime awards with actual credibility, look at animation Kobe, manichi awards, Japan academy awards & TAFF.

Would those series be ones that are popular among Newtype readers? I wouldn't have thought they would be, and these results seem to bear that out.

I guess there's really a lot of KugiRie fans among Newtype readers, since she managed to rank 3d in a year, where she had only one more or less prominent role (Beatrice in Fate/Kaleid Liner).

Gintama as well - which you can see is popular with these readers from the other results (and the character in question even made top 5 female chars).

@YK97 - that just means your interests no longer align as much with those of the voters for these awards. Nothing more, nothing less. An award like this doesn't really say much more than that, although I would agree with @Hoppy that the mascot list is pretty much perfect.

It's harmless zombie action series that is pretty fun to watch but there is some vocal, hyperbolic hate towards the villain. That's what it all comes down to.

I don't think that makes the second half awful though. Just not what some people wanted to watch, so they get incredibly mad in a childish manner.

The series does have some similarities to Attack on Titan, but in a few ways the end result is closer to Resident Evil meets a samurai/ninja movie.

So glad to see Gintama doing well. The main character, main heroine and director were in the top 5 for their respective categories.

Also happy to see the Free! movie doing well despite it not being as good as S2. I hope Free's new anime project will be a third season..
