The results are in, and my #2 series was your top pick. My winner (Jibaku Shounen Hanako-kun) was all the way down in a tie for 7th). Only Kowloon Generic Romance placed the same on your list and mine, and of your top ten didn’t crack mine (and vice-versa, obviously). That’s more than usual but again, it really was a “spread the wealth” year in anime – reflecting the trend of more good series and fewer great ones. If I’d point to one surprise in the results, it’s probably that I expected Takopii no Genzai to poll much higher than it did.
