At long last, the hot take of the year that you all have been waiting for: AniTAY’s top anime of 2019! In this episode of the AniTAY Podcast, we go through the official AniTAY list as shown in our three part article series. Author TGRIP collected the top 10 anime from each AniTAY author, assigned points based on rank (i.e. #1 receives 10 points, #2 receives 9, etc), tallied the total score for each show, and created our official top anime list from the results. Since this episode was recorded before the final list was released, you can listen along to our genuine first impressions as we discuss the top 10.

P.S. We have a new official theme song for the AniTAY podcast that premiered this episode (for the full version, check out the end of the episode). Give it a listen and let us know what you think!

The AniTAY Podcast rings in the new year with a preview for the winter 2020 anime season. Listen in as AniTAY authors gasp in horror at the terrors that await them in the new year. Will Raitzeno assume incorrectly that the next anime hit will actually be terrible (Konosuba)? Or will he be right on the money (most other times)?

As you can see from the naming scheme for the title, the new decade brings with it a new season of the AniTAY podcast. Look forward to future developments for the podcast as the year progresses!

The AniTAY podcast has returned for one final episode before the new year. It’s been a year of fantastic AniTAY highs and horrifying AniTAY lows on the podcast, but we aren’t done just yet! Today’s episode is chock full of terrible takes on the best looking anime people this year. We also talk some more about fall 2019 anime and kinksy is (regrettably) given time to share his least favorite anime of 2019.
