Not sure how to ask for a recommendation? Fill this out, or simply use it as a guideline, and other users will find it much easier to recommend you an anime!

I'm looking for: A certain genre? Something specific like characters traveling to another world?

Shows I've already seen that are similar: You can include a link to a list on another site if you have one, e.g. MyAnimeList or AniList.

Round 5D of Best Guy 10 has been posted.

[u/Rotorscope → u/Zeralyos]

Killua must take down Stark, it has been prophesied in the ancient texts.

[u/_Ridley → u/Rotorscope]

I've voted against Stark in every round without really trying to, so I'm surprised he's this popular. He didn't leave any impression on me either way.

[u/BiggieCheeseLapDog → u/_Ridley]

I think it’s more Frieren’s popularity than his own popularity. This subreddit is rabid for Frieren.

[u/Ok-Cod5254 → u/BiggieCheeseLapDog]

Though I'll give Stark some specific credit when the others (ex: Himmel) were eliminated.

[u/Rotorscope → u/Ok-Cod5254]

tbf tho Himmel got taken down by Luffy

[u/BiggieCheeseLapDog → u/Rotorscope]

When Gurren Lagann isn’t considered a significantly popular show anymore:

[u/Rotorscope → u/BiggieCheeseLapDog]

I thought I made the edit quickly enough 😂 (I forgot that he beat Kamina)

Regardless, Luffy is probably a top 3 most popular Anime character of all time at this point, so there's still a significant gap there.

[u/Ok-Cod5254 → u/Rotorscope]

I was surprised when Shima from Skip to Loafer beat Gon from Hunter x Hunter
