Results are IN. Time to reveal the winners of the Fan-favourite Awards for 2010, Metanorn Readers style~
Last day of the year, woo~ I’m going overboard here to finish all I want to finish and in record time too; I gotta go out and have some fun. Our polls were quite successful this year but a prominent few emerge with few surprises. Though, hold your horses, it’s not over yet! XD
1. Anime OP of the Year
“My Soul, Your Beats!” by Lia (57% Votes)
Angel Beats! has always been amazing in the music department and somehow this win is not a big upset. Jun Maeda, you rock! Can you imagine Uragiri no Yuuyake got beaten with only one percent of vote though?! Yeah, popular voting is dangerous and sorry self and fans, who went aww seeing it not win. If only I could combine that with Complication but that would be cheating and I’m so not doing it! xD
“Uragiri no Yuuyake” by Theatre Brook (56%, 275 Votes)
“Complication” by ROOKiEZ is PUNK’D (48%, 236 Votes)
“God only knows Daisanmaku” by Oratorio The World God Only Knows (34%, 168 Votes)
“HIGHSCHOOL OF THE DEAD” by Kishida Kyoudan & The Akeboshi Rockets (33%, 165 Votes)
“Venus to Jesus” by Etsuko Yakushimaru (29%, 141 Votes)
“Kuchizuke” by Buck-Tick (29%, 141 Votes)
“Koko Dake no Hanashi” by Chatmonchy (27%, 132 Votes)
“Key” by Jangled Cat (Ono Daisuke) (22%, 110 Votes)
“COSMOS vs ALIEN ” by Etsuko Yakushimaru (20%, 98 Votes)
“Flying Humanoid” by Shouko Nakagawa (20%, 100 Votes)
“DOWN TOWN” by Maaya Sakamoto (19%, 93 Votes)
“Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt” by Hoshina Anniversary (17%, 83 Votes)
“Katana to Saya” by ALI PROJECT (12%, 59 Votes)
“Nante Jibun de Kangaenasaina” by Miyuki Sawashiro (12%, 57 Votes)
“Maigoinu to Ame no Beat” by Asian Kung-Fu Generation (10%, 49 Votes)
2. Anime ED of the Year
“Trust Me” by Yuya Matsushita (66% Votes)
Sure shot winner from the get go. The beat is amazing and you can’t help but replay it on your playlist. Yuya sure came up with something different than his usual style; Trust me! The second and third place are not a surprise as well, NO, Thank You was not Don’t Say Lazy but still great, same for Brave Song.
“Kimi no Kirei ni Kizuite Okure” by Sambomaster (26%, 112 Votes)
“Sakasama Bridge” by Suneohair (24%, 103 Votes)
“Maids Sanjou!” by Maids (20%, 84 Votes)
“Gekka Reijin” by Buck-Tick (19%, 82 Votes)
“Akai Coat” by Suneohair (17%, 72 Votes)
“Kimi ga Iru Basho” by Ayahi Takagaki (17%, 72 Votes)
“Kami-sama no Iu Toori” by Etsuko Yakushimaru (17%, 71 Votes)
“Missing You” by Lisa Komine (13%, 56 Votes)
“Koi wa Mizu-iro” by Yukana (13%, 53 Votes)
“Pinky Jones” by Momoiro Clover (9%, 37 Votes)
“All I need…” by Rake (6%, 27 Votes)
3. Male Seiyuu of the Year
Ono Daisuke (77% Votes)
The majority has spoken and I can’t disagree. He is amazing and definitely one of the most successful seiyuu of current times. I’m also happy that my other favourites are pretty much in the top five. Amazing talent, hell yeah!
Again, without a doubt she deserves to win. I mean look at the amount of roles she has done in 2010! Does she even sleep?! Same for my other favourites in top three; I’m content.
Durarara!! has had the most fiercest following this year and you can see from the votes that it’s not going to diminish. Shinra has been a lovable character from the beginning and there was a time when I went WTF of what he’s been doing and stuff he hid from Celty but as they say, all is fair in love and war.
You see what I was saying, right? Not to mention, Celty is an awesome Headless Rider and one of the most human, supernatural being in animu world. You just can’t help but love her. Also, supporting characters made for each other. xD
*FANGIRL SQUEEE* Ahem. I love this character to pieces and seeing him win is a double woo for me. Fortissimo of Ikebukuro indeed! I was not expecting this because this specific list was SO HARD to decide on!!! You can see from the top five how Durarara!! has three main protagonists one after the other.
Wow, another close call and this time around between Angel Beats!, Durarara!! and K-On!! (just look at those exclamation marks pile up 0.0). Anri and K-On!! girls got beaten by Kanade by one mere percent. Though interestingly, Anri and Kanade both are voiced by Kana Hanazawa. Anyway, Tenshi wins!
Chotto matte~ out of the 10 categories, Durarara!! won in six categories?! That is what you call a fan favourite and the majority has spoken! ‘nuff said.
Thank you for participating in our polls and making this an awesome year for METANORN. Though, it’s not over yet and look out for a very special edition soon~

Yeahh, go Durarara go~
It’s my favorite, so it’s great to see it winning <3 Btw, cause Ono is Shizuo, and Hanazawa is Anri, Durarara sort of won in 8 categories 8D
YAY DRRR! FTW 8D
It’s honestly been the best anime this year with it’s awesome original unique characters and not to mention lots of bishies.
Deserving first place ^^ (wow 6 categories)
Omo! I still can’t believe that FMA isn’t even on this list, AT ALL. It just seems somewhat forgotten on Metanorn.
Other than that, though, I’m pretty happy with the results. Sugita’s on the list! -points- I’m putting it hands down that Shizuo beat Izaya, though. He’s the best Male character, Izaya’s just an annoying character :> Durarara is so overliked xD People, Ikebukuro does NOT have gangs, honest. There’s nice street scenery, though.
Looking at the animes of the year, though, I realize that my top 10 is completely different from that. Nobody seems to like Nodame much xD
How can I forget about FMA: Brotherhood when I blogged it so lovingly? =P As I said earlier, I only included the titles that started airing in 2010, so FMA is already out as it started airing in 2009.
Drrr! is awesome and Shizuo’s my waifu~ Also, I love Nodame Cantabile, it will be on my list, no worries! ^^
..I guess it won’t hurt that it’s on my list.
/shot
Oh god. I counted it because it ended in 2010 so..so.. *slaps self*
Heehee, you can have Shizuo. I was so obsessed with him at one point in time, lol. Nodame!♥
My top 10 will be different as well hehe. Also, I <3 Nodame. One of those animes that I can rewatch various times (which I have a couple) and the dorama is just as great.. still waiting for the last few movies for it to be subbed though.
wow O_O out of 10 categories, Durarara won in 6. Well…. it should have been expected))) Also, the favorite main male character of the year being Shizuo ^__^
Looking forward to the special edition!!!! >3<
LOL it would be funny to make a "Most annoying character of the year" or the most WTF moment of the year poll XD
NO WHY ONO DAISUKE XDD ?!
Kamiya was so close D: <3
YEAH IZAYAAAAA<3
I have to agree Durarara was the best with Arakawa, Angel beats etc :3 !!! GREAT <3
*facepalm* I can’t believe it’s THIS popular. Seriously? It looks like all we watch here are Angel Beats! and DRRR!!. XD Oh well, they’re some of my top shows so I can’t complain. =w=
And Durarararararara!! PWNS! CAN WE HAVE OUR SECOND SEASON NOW?!?! >83
All the results were the ones I expected except Shinra. I think he owes it to the anime he’s in. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have gotten that many votes. Just my opinion, though.
I didn’t expect much less from Durarara!! I love it, and I’m so f’in happy that it won 6 out of 10, not to mention that both Seiyus worked on Durarara!!
And Angel Beats! OP is awesome, but… I wanted Maigoinu to Ame no Beat deserves more votes!
I would have to agree with you, I mean I have seen some better anime then Durarara this year and *sigh* I think that if Durarara was aired earlier in the year no one would be talking about it this much.

Hahah DRRR totally deserved all its wins, however I felt that Angel Beats might have been able to pull off what DRRR has if it were a longer anime.
And a Happy New Year to all (Hong Kong Time) >__<
