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~

Without a doubt, this voting system has been taken over dramatically by Angel Beats AND Durarara, I mean… was it even a fair vote? These two anime’s were so good they got HEAPS of votes, undisputed leaders in each of there polls! xD But it’s because they are so good that they deserve to win!
am satisfied with the winners. we fans have good taste. HEHE
i still don’t really get how kida is in the second place. probably i don’t really like him. he’s too hyperactive for me. and annoying. can’t stand his jokes *run away from kida’s fans*
Woooohoooo..
I’m satisfied with almost all categories except Anime OP (Complication, why you’re on the third place??), Male Seiyuu (I’m more into Kamiyan, but I guess he wasn’t the star for 2010) & Male Character (Nuoooo~ Kida on second place? *sob sob sob*)
Nice to see Durarara!! win in sooooo many categories 😀
Durarara owned this year. It’s one of those anime that would be only “very good” and not “great” if you hadn’t have over 9000 friends that watched it too and it’s mosly main topic of discussion (Snow:Oi, you! Izaya or Shizuo? Random-girl-on-convenion: Shizaya! *______* Snow: *makes her anti-fujiyoshi face*). And besides, Drrr is very addictive :D.
[…] Oh boy, haven’t I already done enough listing for 2010… From 10 categories to fan favourites and my personal version. Still, I wanted to get a varied opinion on that and what could be a better […]

So much DRRR…
POWUH: iLurker with 3 comments
This poll was too biased with stupid DRRR fans. Sure its great, BUT THERE WERE OTHER GREAT SHOWS!!!! It shouldn’t have won as much as it did.
POWUH: iLurker with 3 comments
Other great shows of 2010 that deserves recognition:
Angel Beats, Katanagatari, Break Blade, Full Metal Alchemist Brotherhood!!!!, Shiki, and House of the Five Leaves.
