Top 10 Anime of Fall 2014



TOP 10 ANIME FALL 2014




This fall there are raining anime. Be it magic or harem, slice of life or action this season got it all.
So we are putting up a list of top 10 Anime of fall 2014 as of now.


      10.)  FATE/STAY NIGHT/ULTIMATE BLADE WORKS

Though it is, infact, the spin-off version of original Fate/Stay Night series from Tohsaka's perspective, it still, much to my amusement, manages to grip the viewers. The animation being good and all but sometimes puts me off here and there. It gives a nice rendezvous with all the F/s characters once again,(now who wouldn't want that ;)).

Genre - Action, Fantasy, Shounen, Supernatural
Recommended to all Fate franchise fans.
Rating - 7.5/10

9.)  TRINITY SEVEN
One of the better magic comedy this year.It has everything-great animation, good plot, better light-hearted moments and even better dark moment and the main character looks promising for all the weird reasons :/

Synopsis:
Everyday is a normal day in the small town where Kasuga Arata lives; however, everything changed on the day of the Black Sun, and following it, a magician appears before him. The Black Sun caused the Breakdown Phenomenon which destroyed the town where he lives. Because of this, his normal life was artificially reconstructed by a Grimoire that his childhood friend had left. Just what is the purpose of the magician coming to the town? What will he do with the Grimoire's keepsake?

Genre - Magic, Comedy, Romance
Highly recommended to fans of the genre magic comedy

8.)   PSYCHO PASS 2

Yeah! Now this is something we all have been literally doing the COUNTDOWN for! and its finally here. Sequel to the widely appreciated Psycho Pass which aired a couple years ago. Psycho Pass is my personal favourite in the genre Action,Sci-Fi,Police so I have high expectations from this season too. Though kougami has not yet appeared :( , but still Tsunemori has done justice to the show so far so, finger's crossed :x.

Genre - Action, Sci-Fi, Police, Psychological
Recommended to all psycho pass fans as well as those looking for better stories with great animation (It would be wise to see the first season before this)
Rating - 8.2/10

7.)   THE SEVEN DEADLY SINS

I was rather conflicted as to where to put it in the list. The fact that it scored above psycho pass gives it due accolade. I love the manga, so yes maybe I am a little biased (just a teeny-tiny though), but given the genre, it is undoubtedly I would say 'Enjoyable' and that's the only reason why it is on the list.The characters are lovable,story is good,animation pleasing and, well, that's it!

Synopsis:
The "Seven Deadly Sins," a group of evil knights who conspired to overthrow the kingdom of Britannia, were said to have been eradicated by the Holy Knights, although some claim that they still live. Ten years later, the Holy Knights have staged a Coup d'état and assassinated the king, becoming the new, tyrannical rulers of the kingdom. Elizabeth, the king's only daughter, sets out on a journey to find the "Seven Deadly Sins," and to enlist their help in taking back the kingdom.

Genre - Action, Adventure, Fantasy, Shounen, Supernatural
Recommended to the fans of 'Fairy Tail' and 'Akame ga kill'
Rating - 7.4/10

6.)  YOWAMUSHI PEDAL - GRANDE ROAD



At one point or another, one faces a metaphorical wall, and no matter how much effort one puts into breaking it , it is futile. what does one do, they give up? have will power to try again and again?
This , essentially, is what yowamushi pedal is all about

In the previous season as the growing rivalry of hakone, sohoku and kyoto fushimi is heating up and at the end of first day of tournament somehow there is a tie between all the three top cycling school.
In this season we will see the battle between these schools and the obstacles sohoku has to face.

Synopsis:

Genre - Comedy, Slice of Life, Tournament

5.) LOG HORIZON (2nd SEASON)

Hmmmm...Now what to say about this :/ Log Horizon is like big daddy of all anime based on VRMMO and whatnot. The first season itself is a big run as well as a big hit  so there is not much for me to say but yes! its definitely worth watching. It makes you feel like part of the journey. Yeah that pretty much sums it. So back to the 2nd instalment of the series, it pretty much gives the same vibe, and the journey continues, you understand what i mean, ryt?

Genre - Game, Fantasy, Action
Recommended to the fans of 'Sword Art Online' and 'Dungeon Masters'.

4.) SHIGATSU WA KIMI NO USO

I just loved this anime from the first episode. Piano , Violin and Romance! I mean Woww..With great animation, better voice acting and awesome characters, I love it all :D. It's not like 'Nana' or 'Nodame Cantabille' yet it took me by surprise. Don't think twice, Go and watch it!!!!

Synopsis:
Piano prodigy Arima Kosei dominated the competition and all child musicians knew his name. But after his mother, who was also his instructor, passed away, he had a mental breakdown while performing at a recital that resulted in him no longer being able to hear the sound of his piano even though his hearing was perfectly fine. Even two years later, Kosei hasn't touched the piano and views the world in monotone, and without any flair or color. He was content at living out his life with his good friends Tsubaki and Watari until, one day, a girl changed everything. Miyazono Kaori is a pretty, free spirited violinist whose playing style reflects her personality. Kaori helps Kosei return to the music world and show that it should be free and mold breaking unlike the structured and rigid style Kosei was used to.

Genre - Drama, Music, Romance, School, Shounen
Recommended to fans of music and slice of life genre. Also fans of Nodame cantabille

3.) TERRA FORMERS

CREEPY yet AWESOME! this is what terraformars is. If you despise insects and bugs, steer clear of this badass piece of creep (:D). But if you have nothing special against them then try this out, it will blow you away in more than one way. Awesome graphics, badass characters, blood and gore at its best! 

Synopsis:
With the space program attempting to travel to Mars, 21st century scientists were tasked with warming up the planet so that humans could survive on its surface. They came up with an efficient and cost-effective plan of sending cockroaches and mold to the surface so that the mold would absorb the sunlight and the insect corpses would serve as a food source for the mold.
It is now the year 2577 and the first manned ship to Mars has landed on the planet and the six crew members are ready for their mission. But what they find are giant mutated humanoid cockroaches with incredible physical strength. The crew members are easily wiped out, but not before sending a transmission back to Earth. Now, humanity will send elite warriors to exterminate the mutated bugs and claim back Mars.

1.)  PARASITE-THE MAXIM

whatever else one might say about this series, that's one hell of a series to watch
It is the series you should watch rather then reading my post.
This is one of the creepiest and freakiest anime series to come along in awhile. It has awesome graphics, cool character, blood, gore, transformation and everything you want in a series.It was created so differently that it look like something which comes once in a year type. Parasyte the maxim is something worth to look forward too.

Synopsis:
The 17-year-old Izumi Shinichi lives with his mother and father in a quiet neighborhood in Tokyo. One night, worm-like aliens called Parasytes invade Earth, taking over the brains of human hosts by entering through their ears or noses. One Parasyte attempts to crawl into Shinichi's ear while he sleeps, but fails since he is wearing headphones, and enters his body by burrowing into his arm instead, taking over his right hand and is named Migi.

Because Shinichi was able to prevent Migi from traveling further up into his brain, both beings retain their separate intellect and personality. As the duo encounter other Parasytes, they capitalize on their strange situation and gradually form a strong bond, working together to survive. This gives them an edge in battling other Parasytes, who frequently attack the pair upon realization that Shinichi's human brain is still intact. Shinichi feels compelled to fight other Parasytes, who devour humans as food, while enlisting Migi's help.
