This ties KLK as best show of the season for me, and definitely one of the best of the year. Quick question: I didn't really follow what was going on with the discussion between Lady Koto and Inari at the beginning of the episode. Anyone care to spell it out for me? Perhaps some Fangz would help?

Inari does not wish to destroy everything, only so that one way or another, his children will inherit his power and so he would die. Lady Koto says, that you know, if you are so depressed you could just *talk* to people and try to work it out somehow. At least your children deserve to hear what the hell is going on. Inari plays the big baby and says none of them would understand. Lady Koto tries to talk him out of it, saying that dude, they are your kids. Lady Koto adds that trusting the kids to figure everything out themselves is kinda too big a thing to risk the multiverse on. Inari assures her at worst, only he will be destroyed, and he isn't going to risk millions of years of jerkassitude now. He does his last words. Then Koto beats Inari the gently caress up. (Personally I don't get what the flower symbolises, though. The illusionary place that is the moon starting to break down?)

This show had its problems in the back half, but in the end I'm willing to forgive them because they stuck the landing. Probably AOTY for me. Doesn't hurt that the OST is utterly perfect and above reproach, either.

I can't remember the last time I enjoyed a show so much throughout every episode. What a delight this was. Probably AOTY for me too, edging out Shin Sekai Yori.

By far the best show of the year, 10/10, you have no flaws Kyousagiga. It also wins the award for the most  main character. Koto's the coolest!

I got suckered in to watching this when someone described it as like FLCL in the AOTY thread. It wasn't really like FLCL outside the first episode but man this show loving owned, glad I watched it

It wasn't really like FLCL outside the first episode but man this show loving owned, glad I watched it It's a gonzo, breakneck stylized magical realism show about growing up and family. It's close enough to FLCL. v  vThe last episode made me tear up, it was so sweet. The best kinds of magical realism stories are the ones that use the magic to get across the wonder of mundane living and this show does it in spades. It's also got an exciting world that I'd love to see more of. Koto is the best daughter a suicidal, avoidant dad can have.

Jezus. Anime of the year for me. Came out of nowhere. The history of an impossibly selfish man and his impossibly selfish (and ambitious) plan turned out to be a real winner. Cried my way through the last episode and was totally satisfied. I wish other anime could offer so much in just 10 eps. Extra points for a total lack of fanservice and moe (kyoukai no kanata almost ruined anime for me this year)

I wasn't going to pay any attention to this show, mostly because of assumptions based on seeing the title of this thread and thinking "Ahhh, I'm really tired of alice-themed stuff." But a friend got to watch through it recently, and... I ended up really quite liking it. Wasn't what I was expecting at all, and was instead pretty great.

I watched this yesterday and it's definitely the best show I've seen in a long time.

Finally finished watching it. A few observations: Yakushimaru emerging from the cave is so incredibly Christian, as are generations of family inheriting divinity. They also crib the gently caress out of Sandman, except it's much more optimistic. Edit: vvv Pfft haha you're completely right, I'm dumb as gently caress.

Great art style, stellar character development, and characters I got really invested in. I loved how it had zero female fanservice really and was just a wholesome, beautiful, captivating tale. Sans Evangelion, no other anime has really touched me like Kyousougiga.
