After 2 or 3 episodes, the new season of Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei seems to lead the pack, with true tears, Yattaman, and Shigofumi next, but far behind.Spice & Wolf, Persona, and Rosario to Vampire come next, with others strung out behind. It's hard to gauge how popular Minami-ke O-kawari is, since it is simply continuing the original series' threads (and is on its 96th).Here is a rough list showing which thread each show is currently on. Each completed thread represents about 1000 posts.Zoku Zetsubou Sensei 67 True Tears 17 Yattaman 13Shigofumi 11 Spice & Wolf 9 Persona 8 Rosario to Vampire 8 Hakaba Kitarou 7 KimiAru 7 ARIA the Origination 6 H2O 6 Hakuten Yuugi 3Major 4 3 Ayakashi 2Moegaku 5 1 true tears is getting the attention I think it deserves. Yattaman's popularity shows the effect of its long history. With all its faults, I enjoy Ayakashi more than 2channel does. Major and Hakuten Yuugi's low popularity are a further demonstration of 2channel's allergy to any anime that can be classed as shoujo.Moegaku 5 is more an educational variety show than an anime show, even though it has an anime element.A show or two may be missing since I included only the top 100 most recently posted-to threads.
