Hi everyone! We are already halfway through Anime Month if you can believe that. Hell, I can’t even believe it myself, and I’m the one who’s running the show, so there is that! Either way, so far I’ve really been enjoying myself with it, having seen two really great movies and shows. Not only that I’ve also finally been able to make a small dent in my anime to watch list, so I’m pretty happy with that too! Don’t despair though, it’s not over yet, there are still a few things coming up before December, where I’m going to be taking on a different theme month. But that’s in the future. As you might recall, at the start of Anime month I held a little poll where you, the readers, could help decide the final anime that I would be watching. Well, the results are in, and since it’s the halfway point now, I thought it would be nice to share those results with you. Twenty people in total have voted, which is a little bit less then I expected, but eh I’ll take it. In the end it was a close fight between Lost Village, One Punch Man and Kino’s Journey: The Beautiful World. You can see from the picture below which anime has won the battle.

So Kino’s Journey-The Beautiful World it is! I’ve just started watching the series yesterday, and my first impressions for it so far are pretty good. I’m not going to talk too much about it yet, as of course I will leave that for the review that should be up by the end of this month. As for the shows that didn’t win, that doesn’t mean they might not end up with a post at a later time next year. Anyways, I hope you have so far been enjoying the posts that I have been sharing with you. My Neighbor Totoro is up for review next, a classic film from the master himself: Hayao Miyazaki. The post for that one will be released on Wednesday. Well, that’s it for this one. I’m off, to of course watch a few more episodes of Kino’s Journey (that and a gazillion other things). Thanks to everyone who has voted, and all of you that left likes, comments or simply checked out all of the recent anime posts! It’s always appreciated! Have a great week you all, and stay safe.

Can’t believe we’re already halfway through November! A little sad the anime I voted lost out, but I am sure you’ll enjoy Kino’s Journey 😛

Oh no I missed the vote.. but in the end that is a good thing or else you would have had a tie for the number one spot ! xD

Haha😊 Not to worry: in December there will be a new vote, this one for sci-fi month, so maybe you will be able to join in for that one😀
I honestly don’t even know how I would have resolved a tie really🤔🤔 Maybe I would have flipped a coin or something!😂😂
Thanks, it will be the last one for anime month, so that means it should be out next weekend! 😊

I know! It was very close though as you can see😊 No worries though, as mentioned probably some of the other animes that haven’t won will eventually get a review at some point in the future😊
And…in December there will be a new poll, this one for Sci-Fi month! 😀

Yeah, tough to believe that November is halfway done already. I don’t even remember it really starting! Aye yi yi….
Anyway, glad to see that the best anime won 😉
I don’t know how many polls you’ve done, but I’d say that getting 20 participants is a pretty good job. If the same number of people who commented also vote in a poll, I consider it a completely smashing success.

I recall watching an older Kino’s Journey series and enjoying it. I’ve no clue how it relates to this one, whether this is a sequel, reimagining, etc. But I’m hoping it’s just as good if not better.

I did know there was an earlier series, but other than that, I don’t know much about this one either (if it’s a remake or sequel) I’ll try to do some research before I’m writing the post after I’ve finished the series😊 So I hope I will be able to let you know😀

Well….honestly? I had already started with that one before I went on my long hiatus and my health was really bad, so I kind of know what it is…and surprisingly? I quite liked it😊 I have never finished it though, so maybe I will go back to that one at some point😊
Your decription for Kino is right: decent. I’ve seen 10 episodes now, and I like it, but it doesn’t have a “wow” factor for me. Unlike the show I will be reviewing on saturday😊

Somehow I managed to miss the poll… Which isn’t a bad thing I guess, as none of the shows are really something I’d have voted for. Would have ended up with “One Punch” kinda by default.
