Has it just been like a super long time, or were the best of threads always this tedious with voting? Maybe there were just too many good anime for 2012? I'm still waiting for the time you require everyone to give reasons for their votes, though~

Sorry for the double post! I must have clicked something else when trying to edit the above post. Anyway, I'm quite surprised that there are still a few titles that I have watched even though I began watching anime only about a year ago.
