oh its the cockroach game(this is a joke based on how it somehow never EOS'd despite low sales)

[@markstewart4282]

Fuck no best girl, not even close. That show is just wanna be comedy hentai. And not even that funny either. The best girl is Maomao and it’s not even even close. There are amazing ones but it’s not what he recommended. 3 girls from Frieren are better than echidnut picks. Frieren, fern & ubel. His honorable mention was better then his pick

Getting removed out of all categories in an Echidnut anime awards video is lowkey the biggest achievement any anime could ever get.

A tie with Gigguk for me

[@BaciBaciOfficial]

Utena being everywhere makes this video so perfect

[@Arnoldgila]

W for all ecchi kind

[@Dueiso]

Utena made me laugh more than it was suppose to.

[@GunBunnyUTX]

Her VA absolutely COOKED.

[@Ihatefoodbuffs]

The Ecchi I can tolerate, plus no romance so its gooooooood

[@alecathon7898]

EZ DUBS

[@16.phanvinhhoang68]

The Apothecary Diaries deserve MUCH more attention dude, its literally has arguably the best female protagonist.

[@AnujaBedare1234]

exactly :(

[@raec5426]

Well it's up again for 2025 at least

[@extremelynoobgaming4742]

​@@raec5426 frieren is coming too

[@felixlara2945]

Mao Mao is the best shonen protagonist male or female

[@Adamassmilk]

@@felixlara2945that would be true. But apothecary diaries isn’t a shounen.

[@brohimself7017]

Frieren clears all and I will not elaborate.

[@mehran7173]

THE BEST anime of all time frieren. I agrer with u.😊

[@you_know_who4577]

yeah even the opening 1 was so good

[@TheGodAbhi07]

Please Elaborate

[@IisAmStupid]

I agree

[@lekhanh20100]

@@you_know_who4577 both was crazy good, i thought op 2 was better actually (huge yoasobi fan)

[@shirotheshiro1098]

unfortunately, there was an editing mistake because it said that maomao didn't win best girl but a great video nonetheless.

[@pougetguillaume4632]

Ikr imagine if he actually never even mentioned maomao's name in this entire video, it would have been the worst list ever, total scam!

[@baranjan6969]

Cat Maomao too op.

[@deco1747]

Mushoku tensei girls also got edited out......How could they forget Nor-

[@mihilize]

Like how most of "Best episode" candidates are Gushing over Magical Girls

[@Arnoldgila]

I mean.... you seen them too... wouldn't you have put them there😂

[@eduardpeeterlemming]

Cant wait for that 2nd season

[@slashine1071]

@eduardpeeterlemming season 2 will be GOD tier, not even joking. Holy crap I want to see the later arcs animated and people having a meltdown over how good they are.

[@joepiazza3756]

He also hinted that is anime of the year would be Gushing Over Magical Girls because he snuck Utena in there.

Putting Utena in Frieren's 'anime of the year' graphic made me laugh. Imagine her meeting Frieren. God.

[@Arnoldgila]

🙌 🙌 🙌 Does frieren count as a magical girl if yes more content (and Fern Joins goku in the quest to exterminate all por-) If no, then she will just run around until she gets back to torment azur magenta and sulfur and newly impotatio... fc i can't remember how to spell... And thats about it!

[@modguy871]

Always a blessing when these drop

[@mdraj5655]

This is the real anime awards and I freaking agree with you bro! Frieren deserves to be anime of the year. Absolute peak

[@Ez.bake_evan]

Orb needs more recognition. It’s taking more risks than anything else this year, and there’s nothing else quite like it

[@spoiled_Milk36]

Fr its so unique its shame there it’s not popular

[@AjrinTasnim]

ITS SOO GREAT IT HURTS TO WAIT 1 WEEK FOR EACH PEAK EP

[@christianflora2316]

Oshi no Ko really earned that "best anime that had a horrible manga ending" award

[@Egavans]

Just imagine being the people at Doga Kobo whose job is to get people hyped for S3 watching that slow-motion train wreck unfold.

[@balloon2885]

Fr it felt so rushed and empty, I have no idea how aka managed to fumble the ending so hard

[@ch40ssswastaken]

the ending was okay imo. definitely not what we wanted though

[@balloon2885]

@@ch40ssswastaken ngl I feel like the ending definitely needed at least 10 - 20 more chapters, there were so many loose ends left untied

[@pielopelotta]

Glad to see the Oshi no Ko ed get some love. Criminally underrated. I even like it way more than the first Oshi no Ko ed (edit said op by accident).

[@hokieham]

They’re a great band.

[@reliqua]

nah im sad they changed the opening, YAOSOBI really made a banger on s1

[@pielopelotta]

@@reliqua I'm an idiot, meant to say I liked ED2 more than ED1, not OP1. Yeah idol was great.

[@Zeppe2]

NO WAY out of all the endings in 2024, we had the exact same favourite!

[@DomTouretteso]

It was easily the best ending, probably my favourite ending song of all time

[@menoXD]

YOU ARE SO REAL FOR CHOOSING UTENA HIIRAGI AS BEST GIRL😂

[@RM-56]

Monogatari winning a category is all I could ever ask for. Still one of the most 4 dimensional styles of storytelling i've ever seen

[@maxfaberg128]

the visuals were so peak again

[@eduardpeeterlemming]

The most visually appealing series ever made

[@Otaku03494]

I literally haven’t seen anything that’s like Monogatari in terms of it’s storytelling and atmosphere, it’s just that good.

[@AjrinTasnim]

Watched it 4 years ago and no anime has come close to it till now. Ab@olute peak

[@bobjankins5456]

The dangers in my heart couple definitely shoulda won best couple they're so perfect together

[@pops0413]

real, best couple without a doubt

[@Mario-fg6ns]

Biggest robbery I have ever seen

[@raec5426]

I can be fine with the option of Okarun and Momo for best couple, but it should have at least won best romance, especially over Losing Heroines which is more suited for comedy than romance.

[@AriLasso-m9m]

​@@raec5426nope best couple and best romance is undisputedly for dangers, anyone pick otherwise is just biased

[@raec5426]

@AriLasso-m9m I'm saying that out of the 2 categories, the best romance would've been the best one they should have gotten something in, if anything

[@o-taco4010]

I didn't know Utena was in Frieren 😮 15:34

Mogus?

[@finiavanamandresy5460]

Finally Train to the End of the World is getting some recognition. That anime was just randomly beautiful for absolutely no reason.

[@LiveType]

Gushing over Magical Girls mentioned. Lets go! Also train to the end of the world? What timeline is this? Was a banger.

[@Arnoldgila]

She is so good she made it to best anime of the year! Truely what a timeline

[@lazarussevy2777]

Train to the end of the world was PEAK! It was so peak in fact, that I haven't watched the last episode after all this time because I'd be sad that it was over :,(

i love how you compare animes by every single detail and when i'm looking for one i always come to your channel.Keep up the good work!

[@PratkYT]

No way I was rewatching your old videos because I couldn't get enough of your humor thank you for posting 😭 best anime youtuber fr

echidnut I have been watching for a long time and found your channel like 3 years ago. Bro, your hilarious 😂 and my favorite anime KZbinr Ive been telling all my friends that burning from Oshinoko S2 is the best outro of the year!! You always got the best takes. That guitar riff to start out the track hits every time lol.

I think Kazuma should have won the Best Boy award. He carried the whole season.

[@casidelbowen2675]

2024 was The Year of The Elf, and nobody's convincing me otherwise.

[@easyplayer7453]

Great to see you had 'Villainess Level 99' nominated a couple of times

[@raec5426]

The general lists he used is from Anime Trending polls. So they had it on there.

[@collecter343]

Thank you for affirming my taste in anime. Also pray you and your loved ones made it out relatively ok from the flames.

I love it when Utena propagating the Yuri gospel to everyone in Frieren

[@Echidnut]

That was my favorite episode

[@marcusossowicki2729]

The comedy and editing on these are great. I like the video 5 mins in and then by the end I realize there is no second like button to press. KZbin really gotta get on that.

Man everytime I watch ur vids and you play the made in abyss sound track it always brings back memories like no other soundtrack or anything song for that matter

[@paocut9018]

4:11 you liked that speach?! I absolutely hated it... I thought it was cringe, and uninspiring. I tried to imagine myself as one of the civilians listening to it and my only reaction was "this is the guy who's supposed to save us?! We're so f*cked..."

[@legallyblind619]

I loved that you used the First Layer ost from made in abyss before the soundtrack section, that ost is a relic.

[@Unkown-z6d]

This is low-key nah u know what HIGH-key better than the other anime awards😂😮😂

[@uzumakishrek]

2 VIDS IN ONE WEEK!!! THIS MIGHT BE PEAK

[@Regret_xx-Clyde_xx]

Bleach Thousand-Year Blood War cour 3 deserves the anime of the year! The stunning animation, jaw-dropping fight sequences, and the emotional depth of the story make it a masterpiece. Every character's growth, the intense stakes, the faithful adaptation of the manga and the ost's by the GOAT himself SHIRO SAGISU are amazing. Bleach has the best ost's, no one comes close to it. The visuals, the opening, the ending were just peak

[@Nigros7]

peak was my dick when i heard BANKAI every fucking time

[@houmran2878]

At least give it a shoutout It was spectacular seasson!!!

[@FREE-u8q]

It looks like he isn't that much of a bleach fan... Atleast talk about a little since Cour 3 is best cour so far and surpasses many animes!..

[@Regret_xx-Clyde_xx]

@@FREE-u8q Exactly

[@Regret_xx-Clyde_xx]

@houmran2878 he and all of thr big creators like giguk the anime man and mothers basement all of em literally hate bleach for no reason and the same goes with other creators hating bleach for no reason

[@YonaSoundcloud]

Dungeon Meshi's composer is actually the same guy who wrote the soundtrack for the video game chrono trigger in 1995, arguably the best jrpg ever made. Insanely good pick, and if you haven't heard it give Schala's theme a listen and admire that dungeon meshi's composer wrote that song 29 years earlier for SNES hardware

[@juanjosefarina]

You just convinced me to give dungeon meshi a try

[@Tttpttt09]

Yeah it's fire

[@theweakbeast7833]

[@raec5426]

If you think of opening, you think of music and visuals. So Dandadan had the best combo for both.

[@lazarussevy2777]

@@raec5426 Gonna have to disagree with you on that one. Did you see those snakey things on Kaiju no 8? It looks totally awesome!

[@Y_KM]

Absolutely based takes when comparing frieren to an anime like dandadan or any of the other competitors frieren knocks them all out in almost every category

[@Funay31]

Omg ty for not putting Oshi No Ko ed 2 on the bench, that's the only ending in my life that I never skipped! The first time I watched it I almost dropped tears, this ending is the best of 2024 but could also be the best of all time, in my opinion 🙃

The Dandadan's opening is so fire that it started a a wild one💀. Yeah, jus kill me already
