One of the Top 5 Joys of Fandom is making lists.

So, here’s a list of the Top 5 Anime We’ve Experienced Over Our Years of Podcasting.

This list is an analysis of our annual year-end episodes where we each list our Top 5 Anime of the year. Based on where an anime fits onto our Top 5 lists, points are ascribed. The top score possible is 15, when all three of us agreed this was the #1 anime of the year. The lowest score possible is 1, when one of us put an anime as our #5 anime of the year, and it didn’t rank for the other two.

With that system in mind, here are the anime that all three of us agreed on, giving a quick sampling to the taste of our podcast and what we’ve been paying attention to while podcasting.
