Already some fairly interesting shows are appearing. I never really rated Outlaw star, but seems like it's a fairly popular series that may be warrents a re-watch on my part, also, the fan girls speak with the Ouran High School Host Club making number 11! Finally, Fruits Basket at number two is a surprise in that it's never really discussed or lamented to the same extent as say, Naruto or Bebop, yet it seems like such a favorite!

Miyazaki is notable on his absence, too.
 
EVA fanboys: NO EVA AT NUMBER ONE!? >_>

I'm glad Claymore got the cut, it deserves it, however, there also seems to be a lack of Gurren Lagann. =/

Yes quite surprising but it's also notable that all twenty are 'series'. I can't really explain why but I always see movies as a different catergory to series.

Also I don't know about anyone else but I reckon that if I had created my list the previous or next day (or even hour!) that it would probably have been in a different order and have had two or three different entries.

One other thing, it doesn't look like a huge number have filled in their profiles yet. Any idea how many have done Paul?

Outlaw Star got on there. Shame I can't remember if I voted for it or not. Great series.
It would seem you didn't as your profile appears empty.
 
I'm very surprised to see Evangelion ranked so low, and Fruits Basket so high. I enjoyed Fruits Basket immensely, but I didn't think it was that popular.
 
Okay... a couple of my favourites were on there, not my absolute favourite, but i guess DC has a small crowd. But seriousley, Furuba was okay... but it's messed up that it's so high ranking. HOW is it better than Ouran High? I'm even surprised that Naruto didn't do better and i don't even like Naruto.
 
The top ten there is perfection, Even If I haven't seen the odd one or two. From 11 onwards it goes downhill, Exceptions for a few of course. XD

Maybe more people have seen Fruits Basket, as it's been more easily available for longer?

Ah, just realised that nothing on my top 10 is on the list... oh well, business as usual then ^^;

Um, what? The worse shows are at the top mayn.
 
In a way Bebop i expected to be rated highly, but One Piece didn't get as high as i had hoped. Full Metal Panic is there so i'm not to bothered. I would have liked to have seen Maybe Gurren Lagann in there or maybe Berserk rated a little higher. Not to bothered about much else though.
