So I was bored and decided to get around to making my anime 3x3. What's an anime 3x3, you ask? Well, it's basically just a creative way to show off your 9 favorite anime in a mosaic style. Just take your 9 favorites, find a nice image of them and shop them together into a neat little mosaic. They don't have to be in any particular order, just has to be a 3x3 setup.

I'll start with mine.

For added discussion value, it's usually encouraged to rate other people's 3x3s out of 9. So if you know and agree with 6 of my choices, you give it a 6/9 if you choose to. You don't have to rate when you post yours, but it will encourage others to do the same for you which is always fun! Pick a few mosaics from above you when you post and rate them together so the thread doesn't get spammed too much. If you don't know what an anime is and it looks interesting, feel free to ask the poster!

Since a couple of people are already telling me they don't know most of my choices, here's the list from top left to bottom right:

Spice and Wolf, Mouretsu Uchuu Kaizoku (AKA Bodacious Space Pirates), Accel World
Fate/Zero, The World God Only Knows, Isekai no Seishiki Monogatari (AKA Tenchi Muyo! War on Gemini)
Seitokai Yakuindomo, Aria the Animation, Sword Art Online

Kill la Kill, Neon Genesis Evangelion, Puella Magi Madoka Magica
Anohana: The Flower We Saw That Day, Durarara!, Mirai Nikki (Future Diary)
Shin Sekai Yori (From the New World), Sword Art Online, Death Note

I like this, a bit of creativity.

You can probably tell I am a fan of SAO since I included it in my own, but I don't recognise any of your other series sadly. Clearly I can't measure up to your anime standards Senpai :(

Okay, done ... done.
I'm doing this before I hop to sleep. Sure my photo editing skills suck with this program, but I tried my best.
Before I reveal my own "3X3" I shall rate yours.

I don't need no drum roll!
3/9!
Well, this was mostly because I did not know many/did not watch, so I couldn't really rate them anything.
Although one, I did not like.

EDIT:

3/9 ... AGAIN!
I only don't know one this time, some I haven't seen, one I don't like.
I like three though.

Here is mine!

[http://s1058.photobucket.com/user/StormShaun/media/Untitled_zpsb0bbe5e0.png.html]

Considering this was done in a rush, so it may not look that great, but I find all the choices there in my top [Insert number]. Now ... now I go to bed.

For your viewing pleasure, I shall tell you which ones are here in my choices. Left to right.
* = Best anime I know.

Top Three - Clannad* (Romance, drama), Clannad After Story* (Romance, drama, and a punch to "the feels"), Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood (Adventure, science fantasy).
Middle Three - JoJo's Bizarre Adventure 2012 (Supernatural, action, fabulous), Spice and Wolf (Fantasy, Romance, intelligence, and needs another season), Nagi no Asukara (Drama, romance, and fantasy).
Bottom Three - GetBackers (Action-Adventure, Comedy-drama, and bro-time with superpowers!), Lovely Complex (Romantic comedy, slice of life story, and wish it was on DVD), Eden of the East (Psychological, Romance, and Mystery. Note: It has movie sequels!).

You can tell I like my romance.

Haha! My ninja skills are unmatched!

As for yours... Well I've only seen two so 2/9. There are some there I would like to watch sometime however.

You included JoJo's though which I cannot stand, so you lose a point for that :p

Many people in the Escapist are going to hunt you for that. ^_^ [sub][sub][sub]Partly me for Anohana being there, instead of the rightful King.[/sub][/sub][/sub]
As Lord Dio says ...


But I did give you a negative one for Sword Art Online, so that is only fair. :p
I'm ... I'm going to sleep now. I need rest to prepare my Supanova costume.

I went ahead and put a list of the names of my choices in the OP post. I highly recommend all of them so if you're looking for stuff to watch you should check them out.

I give you 5/9. Because I still think Kill la Kill is overrated. Your other choices are mostly good, though I found Durararararararra to be rather boring. Also, did you steal my SAO image? Thief, I say! Call the guards!

Snip.
I'll also give you a 5/9, because usually multiple seasons of a show are considered together. Otherwise people that really like Bleach might fill up their mosaic with 9 Bleach images. I see Spice and Wolf is on your list, great choice.

Oh I'm well aware I could be lynched for saying that, but I stand by it. The first episode made me feel ill, that's how much I hated Dio. Have fun at Supernova! I considered going to that but never looked into it... I think my sister is going though.

I'll bookmark this thread I think, I'll have a number of series to check out over my holidays now. And it was a good image for SAO so yes I did! :p

Van, you like Seitokai Yakuindomo and never told me? The hell, man!

Alright, chaps. I have no skill in photo-editing, so mine sucks big time.


In order,

The Pet Girl of Sakurasou, Baka and Test, Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood, Golden Time, Highschool DxD, My Little Sister Can't be this cute, Sword Art Online, Date A Live, Haganai.

Van, you get a 4 out of 9

Drum, you get a 5 out of 9

Shaun, you get a... 1 out of 9. I've never watched Clannad so don't get on me, bro!

StormShaun said:
3/9! I've only seen the top row and I don't care for the new jojo adaptation, so yeah...

Drummodino said:
4/9! Cuz Madoka, evangelion, anohana and the combined score of stuff I'm on the fence about.

VanQ said:
0/9! I've never seen any of it, although my friends just got SYD and are trying to get me to watch it. Also, Fate divided by Zero is on my list because Gen Urobutchi.

Man... I really havn't watched that many anime series, I read a lot of manga and watch a lot of cartoons but i'm out of touch with most of the current anime scene. I watched Kill la Kill but I havn't watched anything else since Attack on Titan.

3/9! Golden Time and FMA almost made my list but got squeezed out. Again I haven't watched a lot of those, the only other is Highschool DxD.

4/9! I like all of those that I've seen, Black Lagoon has one of the best dubs I've ever heard.

@sextus: You get a 3/9. I enjoyed Madoka Magica and Fullmetal Alchemist. The last is for The Melachonly of... whatever her name is. I haven't watched it, but I've only heard good things about it. I plan to watch it eventually.

@Drum: I would really suggest the Pet Girl one then. Very similar to Golden Time, mature romance and all that.

Drummodino said:
6/9, I've still yet to watch Eva and Anohana, is Anohana any good?

StormShaun said:
2/9, I love JoJo and that's another anime I need to watch Clannad, would you recommend it?

Elfgore said:
2/9, I need to watch Oreimo, despite knowing how it ends and Date a Live, mostly because of Kurumi, I love yanderes

@Elfgore: Well shit, we were so close to the first 9/9 for the thread but I won't dignify Highscool DxD with a point even if I watched and enjoyed it as a guilty pleasure. Baka Test and Sakurasou both nearly made it into my 3x3 but just didn't quite make the cut. It's hard to narrow your favourites down to just 9.
And yes, as you can tell from it being in my 3x3, I'm a big fan of SYD. It's highly enjoyable to see the results of a female mangaka given a comedy serialization and told to write whatever she wants.

8/9 for you. Here's a Suzu.

@sextus the crazy: 6/9 for you. A fairly solid list of shows you have there. I wasn't a big fan of Gunslinger Girl, though I do admit I didn't give it much of a chance.

@Kitsune Hunter: 6/9 for you too. I really loved Shiki, it was such an interesting take on Vampire Horror and the art was fantastic. I've actually been wanting to finish it but I can't find it anywhere these days. Mind if I ask where you found it?

I'd recommend reading the manga over the anime, as the anime only covers a little bit of the manga, while the manga is finished. It's more of political thriller/character relation show, rather than an action oriented one. It's not terribly "anime" as far as genre conventions go, so keep that in mind.

Recommends for both AnoHana and Clannad. Clannad is a very competent highschool rom-com VN adaptation and its sequel after story is pretty excellent for most of it. AnoHana is also very good.

5/9 love the monster manga.

@Vannyboy: But Highschool DxD has Rias, Akeno, and Xenovia. And let's not forget nipple lazers of deth, cloth destroying power attacks, and power breast beams. But most importantly, the show has Rias.

Any show that has her, deserves a point. I mean look at her.

I actually stand by my point that Highschool DxD has an amazing story that just gets drowned out by the boobs, the massive, jiggly boobs that I wanna... whoa almost lost myself there. I'll take that Suza as well, she's kawaii as fuck.

Thank to this thread, I actually made one! (Normally I would be too lazy to do it since I haven't got photoshop).


Top row- Burn up Excess, One Piece and Tenchi Muyo
Middle row- Ghost in the Shell: SAC, Gurren Lagann and Shirokuma Cafe
Bottom row- Persona 4: The animation, Cowboy Bebop and Fooly Cooly

Wasn't easy to picked (each of them has a reason behind on why I picked it) althought I feel like I should consider the recent animes into the list aswell like Kill La Kill or Jojo's Bizzare Adventure.

EDIT- Crap I competely forgot Tiger and Bunny! I can't be bother to reedit that image so imagine Tiger and Bunny instead of Persona 4: The animation!
