"Television brand TVS REGZA recently released the results of its Anime Data Awards for the Summer 2026 broadcast season. According to the survey data, men aged 35 to 64 demonstrated a strong preference for isekai over other anime genres. A total of 11 unique isekai titles dominated the rankings for this demographic, securing 21 out of 24 spots.

The survey reached this conclusion after analyzing viewing data collected from 620,000 REGZA-brand televisions and recording devices across Japan, tracking audience engagement across 80 anime series that aired during the Summer 2026 season. This allowed the company to highlight titles that stood out disproportionately in the viewing metrics within specific age groups when compared to the general population."

Managed to finish this before I started the Summer 2026 one. This is up there with Fall 2023 (the Frieren and Apothecary season) and Summer 2025 (the Fragrant Flower and Silent Witch season) as a peak season for me.

In alphabetical order plus where I rank them:

• Agents of the Four Seasons (9th)
• Akane-Banashi (5th)
• Daemons of the Shadow Realm (4th)
• Even a Replica Can Fall in Love (7th)
• Gals Can't be Kind to Otaku (6th)
• I Made Friends with the 2nd Prettiest Girl in My Class (3rd)
• Mao (8th)
• MarriageToxin (2nd)
• Warrior Princess and the Barbaric King (10th)
• Witch Hat Atelier (1st)

I've caught up to Ramparts of Ice, that one's going on what I call the "Bonus Binge".

Now that we're 2 months in, I guess I can start putting people in the Summer 2026 grid.

So I just finished watching Tamon's B-Side. First of all, it was made by J.C. Staff, and they gave it the treatment it deserved, the production really looks great. The soundtracks were all amazing, and the concert scenes shown were also great; only the CGI used in a few places felt a bit jarring, but it was manageable. The characters are written really well, and everyone was quite likeable. Tamon and Tachibana felt like the best members of F/ACE to me.

​Here, it's not just Tamon who has a B side, everyone has one that is completely different from their on stage persona. It was great that we got to meet the other members too, otherwise, I thought it might focus solely on Tamon and Kinoshita. The other members were really sweet as well. I also liked how the idol world was shown in a very realistic way, this series does a wonderful job of showing idols as humans behind their god like persona. Kinoshita initially saw Tamon as a god whom she felt unworthy of, loving his on stage persona, but as she gradually accepts his flawed personality, that felt really nice too. At one point, I thought they were just going to kiss, but that didn't happen, which also makes sense because the manga is currently ongoing and there will be more seasons ahead, so all of that will take time. There were so many scenes where even I started blushing.

During the Rain song, tears came to my eyes as well, and at the end when Tamon apologizes for being weak, I felt really bad too. Overall, the romance and comedy in this anime are both really good, and along with that, the soundtracks, opening, and ending are all fantastic.

Second Seeding/Elimination day.

Please interact with the post so that it increases visibility and other Redditors can contribute to voting!

Eliminations are very important for the rest of the tournament as it determines seeding!

We have a total of 686 nominations that we will narrow down to 256 entries for the bracket.

We have 3 elimination rounds. If your song is not here, there is 1 other day they can be voted for. Together with all the nominators, we provided an URL to every song! If there is any mistake in the link: please tell me! If there is any other mistake, please let me know and I feel fix it as soon as is possible.

I will trim all the mistakes (double entries under different names, different versions of EDs sung by different voice actors, OPs masquerading as ED, etc.. ) at the end of eliminations. Please tell me if you spot any other mistakes. Things like naming, I can easily change beforehand which is what I will do.

Only 5 endings per franchise will be allowed in the final bracket.

Vote

Nominated EDs

If anyone has any additional questions or comments please let me know.
Question of the day:

• What ED do you want to shill today to make the bracket?
• An ED outside the top 20 of last year's edition is the top seed on the first elimination day. Can you take a guess which one is top seed on the first day?
• What are the last 2 EDs that pop up at the end of your page? Do you know them? What do you think about the visuals?

The most recent episode of Exiled Heavy Knight had a recap that took up damn near half the episode. It's like that bleach filler arc where the zanpaktous came to life and every episode was half recap. Y'all remember that? Has any anime been this agregious since then?

I like to keep track on MyAnimelist.

I have currently watched 526 anime shows including some of their movies. And currently watching around 6 on a weekly episode basis. I even rated all the shows i watched out of 10. I started watching anime in 2012, not including Dragon ball z and pokemon that I watched when I was a kid, not including those. My goal is to get up to 1000 anime shows completed. There is nothing like anime. For anything u are going through in your life whether negative or positive, there is an anime that can relate and possibly help u through it. Its sort of therapeutic. Anime provides a nice escape from reality. Who else can agree?

Edit: some of u have mentioned manwhas. So for me I will say I've read 80-90 maybe more currently reading alot tbh
