HOLY CRAP! WHAT A CLOSE POLL!!
Added 2019-12-10 22:06:21 +0000 UTCAs you guys can see, Bleach and AOT both finished at 24% in our poll! I had to download the spreadsheet to get the raw numbers. In doing that, I discovered that the final tally was AOT-165... BLEACH-161.
The narrowest of victories for the AOT fans! However, Bleach crew, do not despair!
I had something in mind from when this contest first started, but I didn't want to let on to what I was thinking prior to this because I didn't want to sway voting. I had decided that, if a shorter series won (something that we'd finish in 3 months or less) I was going to take every show that was able to garner double digit support in the poll and pit them against one another to be the next series at this level.
The logic was, if the series that won was short (AOT is only about 60 episodes, so will be done well under 3 months) then we will largely have the same basic crew here at that time, meaning that another series you guys would like would be fair.
I know that some will say that it was so close that Bleach should just be next. That's not true, though, as we have no idea how all the AOT voters would have gone if that wasn't an option. With having a huge field of 12, I think any series that could pull in double digits deserves a shot at the next spot.
Now, when this poll becomes final, I will be on vacation, but I'll be checking in and you guys can watch the poll and know what's next.
Without further ado, please vote for the series that will follow AOT from these 3 shows that got good support in the original poll... :-)

No point in even bringing up the filler since he’ll be skipping it...
GoldArthur
2019-12-16 22:09:36 +0000 UTCThere's still the $1 tier, a lot of series from last poll will probably show up there
Chrome
2019-12-14 19:51:47 +0000 UTCAlthough it is disheartening since it means that my favourite, which wasn't one of the top 4 on the last poll, won't even get a chance to be seen for two series.

2019-12-14 17:26:31 +0000 UTCCalled it, 5 votes in it!
Yunru
2019-12-14 17:04:24 +0000 UTCMy biggest problem would be the fact that we have two extremely long series running at the same time each that are known to be full of filler. That's almost a year of both slots being filled by the same type of show. With long drawn out sections rather than the streamlined focus of new shows.
Jake Young
2019-12-14 13:27:57 +0000 UTCWell shit, GGs
Dandy
2019-12-14 06:13:18 +0000 UTCProbably because a lot of people that voted on the last one just don't care. If they didn't want any of these three, why would they vote now?
Yunru
2019-12-13 12:38:32 +0000 UTCHarry Potter is also a highly rated series and it is an absolute train wreck you're not proving much. Also of course its still has fans kids grew up watching and reading it. Its part of life another thing is when you grow up you realized a lot of what you liked wasn't very good. Bleach really did have the potential to be something but like most things that came before and after it, it didn't make the cut. The only difference is it had an anime during the time when anime finally started catching on in places other than south america. Most of the things around its quality level could never dream of having a big anime or movies to support their series. Money and connections can move mountains and bleach is proof of it.
2019-12-13 08:03:42 +0000 UTCAll this hate on Bleach is laughable. Its one of the top 100 franchises of ANYTHING of all time. (number 65 to be exact) The 11th most successful Manga Franchise of all time. And still has content with fans globally wanting more. Its still TV Tokyos top 5 earning series yearly. But i guess to all the salty fans it "died" years ago.
PKKite
2019-12-13 07:32:10 +0000 UTCNo that would be garbage at that point. Bleach had proven majority twice so far.
PKKite
2019-12-13 07:23:49 +0000 UTCit has 240/241 canon episodes. The second to last filler arc has been confirmed cannon by the material later.
PKKite
2019-12-13 07:20:02 +0000 UTCI’m fine with Bleach as long as he skips the filler. Not only is the majority awful, but it cuts the show size of 366 episodes down to 146.
Thomastheterminator
2019-12-13 05:36:38 +0000 UTCReally hoping he will watch code geass
2019-12-13 01:01:01 +0000 UTCLooks like it might be the same again, needing another vote to decide which way Hajime voters would go.
Yunru
2019-12-12 19:34:33 +0000 UTCExactly the same here. Ippo ftw. However, I believe he will enjoy geass a lot more than bleach tbh.
Ploppy Wasabi
2019-12-12 19:09:32 +0000 UTCI voted for Hajime but seeing it doesnt stand chance in this pool, I changed to CG , Bleach would be better after OP.
Krzysztof Gaweł-Kucab
2019-12-12 18:06:59 +0000 UTCCG fans, don't give up. Literally EVERY vote counts.
M9M5
2019-12-12 12:53:22 +0000 UTCI know it's not too big a deal, but I'm somewhat salty that the long show is the one that's winning. Not that I don't love bleach, but CG is literally my number 2 show that i want our old bald guy to watch, beating out Ghost Stories and RWBY and losing only to Fate/Zero. Well, soon enough...
Harold Haddick
2019-12-12 09:55:34 +0000 UTCDamn, it’s such a shame. I’d put it in the top 10 best series of all time personally, but more people need to see it.
MrPapes
2019-12-12 07:04:55 +0000 UTCI feel like it's more likely to show up on the $1 tier at this point, it reaches the poll but I feel like not enough have watched it to actually push the series enough in the poll
Chrome
2019-12-12 07:03:24 +0000 UTCLol no worries. Personally I was polling for Hajime no Ippo this time, but I’m sure we’ll get to it soon since it keeps popping up.
MrPapes
2019-12-12 06:58:41 +0000 UTCcause it's a classic? everyone has different tastes and there's nothing wrong with a series with fun sword fights and characers
Chrome
2019-12-12 06:29:07 +0000 UTCFor everyone voting for bleach, I’d just like to know why
MrPapes
2019-12-12 06:00:17 +0000 UTCDawg you really spamming every comment on this poll riding bleach. Like settle down dude we understand you have very very shit taste but you don’t have to project it on everyone else. Bleach is a battle shonen... grow the fuck up
Colin
2019-12-12 02:30:55 +0000 UTCI like how the only two notable arcs have the same plot save the damsel.
2019-12-12 01:01:45 +0000 UTCI'd love it if more people voted period. I'd like the entirety of the Goosh to have the chance to voice their personal opinion and choose what they wanna see. Turnout #s aren't nearly as impressive as the last poll. If there's something you wanna see or something you dont wanna see MAKE YOUR VOTE COUNT
Dandy
2019-12-12 00:12:23 +0000 UTCoh ffs Bleach can wait.. Code Geass is only a few seasons 🤦🏻♂️ Bleach is 300 episodes of mediocre only notable arcs are soul society and arrancar
Exus
2019-12-12 00:08:46 +0000 UTCI really hope Bleach wins.
Moe
2019-12-12 00:00:58 +0000 UTCHajime no ippo for the win
2019-12-11 23:08:51 +0000 UTCi'm just glad AOT won ^^
hardcore4belgium
2019-12-11 21:04:09 +0000 UTCI really want code geass to win but if it doesnt at least we can get bleach over with and the bleach fans can be happy
WeebsRSuperior
2019-12-11 19:35:20 +0000 UTCCome on guys Code Geass PLEASE. We can do Bleach after. Dont make me wait another 300+ days...
Irimu
2019-12-11 18:33:49 +0000 UTCNot really saying much when his other work is a couple of one shots and a manga that got canceled at volume 4.
2019-12-11 18:16:55 +0000 UTCBleach: Tite Kubo's finest work!
Vortex
2019-12-11 18:13:04 +0000 UTCDo you think putting 2 fanbases against 1 is a fair poll? How would you feel if all Ippo fans voted for Bleach? And then in the next poll all Bleach fans voted for Ippo?
2019-12-11 16:53:23 +0000 UTCLet's watch all big 3 Go Bleach
2019-12-11 16:47:37 +0000 UTCHonestly all 3 of these are shows I love. I'm happy no matter what wins.
CrossZ
2019-12-11 16:26:46 +0000 UTCYo! For the sake of both Code Geass and Hajime no Ippo, all Ippo fans please switch to Geass, and in the next pole, all of those of who voted for CG will vote for Hajime. I solemnly swear to go through with it, and all Code Geass fans, even if you like Bleach more than Hajime, please compromise and join me. Nothing against Bleach, but I like Geass better and I'm not a big fan of having two long-running series up at the same time.
M9M5
2019-12-11 16:24:32 +0000 UTCThough the mecha perform an important practical role, their thematic role is non-existent and narrative role is minimal. That's why I personally don't think it a primarily mecha anime, but more a political war thriller.
M9M5
2019-12-11 16:04:30 +0000 UTCCODE GEASS LET'S DO THIS! Perhaps the greatest mecha show in anime with easily a top five ending.
Tyler
2019-12-11 15:16:57 +0000 UTCI get how you feel but it probably wont happen. I am personally on the code geass wagon as i think we have enough battle shounen going atm and i would prefer more variety and on that front, code geass is the one least like the other shows we are getting.
Miklar Sihn
2019-12-11 14:43:37 +0000 UTCI would personally prefer finishing it off after one piece, which i know is a bit of a way off. But we are just in danger of having the channel continually dominated by battle shounen. And while i like battle shounen, it is worth getting some other stuff too to spice things up.
Miklar Sihn
2019-12-11 14:40:52 +0000 UTCThanks, My Friend... I honestly put a lot of effort in trying to be fair. :-)
Spaz Boys Comedy
2019-12-11 13:42:28 +0000 UTCjust wanted to show some appreciation, curtis. you are very considerate of the goosh!
astherphoenixxx96
2019-12-11 13:29:49 +0000 UTCAgreed! Bleach is one of the few that's better dubbed. Not to mention Steve Staley, playing Neji... I mean Hitsugaya :P
GoldArthur
2019-12-11 10:09:02 +0000 UTCthere should be at least one Gintama reaction up I think, as long as it wasn't lost during the purge
Chrome
2019-12-11 07:31:20 +0000 UTCI like Code Geass and especially Ippo a lot more than I like Bleach. But I voted Bleach cause it must be done to finish the legendary big three :)
Michaël Wille
2019-12-11 06:57:35 +0000 UTCIf we do Bleach I suggest the dub Johnny Yong Bosch is a great VA who has a ton of great roles including the main character of Bleach (Ichigo). His first anime role in fact is Vash from Trigun another good 90s dub. Funny thing he even voices Lelouch the Main character from Code Geass.
PKKite
2019-12-11 06:55:49 +0000 UTCI'm extremely excited for Code Geass as well, it's my all-time favorite anime and I know we'll get around to it even if it doesn't win this one (as much as I'd love it to).
Mikestrike
2019-12-11 05:23:31 +0000 UTCHonestly I’m fine with any of these series (assuming all the filler is ignored in Bleach). I still want him to watch Gintama though. Maybe I’ll do a few Goosh100s with my Christmas money
Thomastheterminator
2019-12-11 04:23:57 +0000 UTCNot sure if you will see this, but can you please consider making one slot exclusive for much longer anime like Bleach Naruto and One Piece.
2019-12-11 04:18:59 +0000 UTCprobably the most mature comment I've seen in this situation
Chrome
2019-12-11 04:12:44 +0000 UTCIt looks like bleach is going to win. I really don't like bleach but I guess i'm happy for the Bleach fans. Just because I don't like it doesn't mean other people shouldn't be able to enjoy it.
Fritz
2019-12-11 04:05:44 +0000 UTCGo Bleach
2019-12-11 03:27:22 +0000 UTCI want it so bad lol, though it’s great to see that it scores consistently in the polls. I know we’ll get to it soon, hopefully after whatever gets picked here.
MrPapes
2019-12-11 03:21:44 +0000 UTCAny Ippo fans interested in switching to Code Geass? I'll vote Ippo next time since its actually good unlike Bleach.
2019-12-11 03:18:48 +0000 UTC1 vote for Code Geass Sub, Jun Fukuyama is amazing as Lelouch.
2019-12-11 03:04:07 +0000 UTCYES! In my opinion, Code Geass has the best overall dub of all anime, even Cowboy Bebop.
M9M5
2019-12-11 02:37:21 +0000 UTCIf you want an amazing story with amazing voice acting in not only the sub but the dub as well then vote Code Geass
Ranger
2019-12-11 02:18:31 +0000 UTCC'mon, you guys! Code Geass! It's only 50 episodes. That's a month and a half, and it being such an excellent show, it'll go by in a jiffy.
M9M5
2019-12-11 01:37:34 +0000 UTCSounds very childish tbf
2019-12-11 00:53:51 +0000 UTCY I K E S. Bleach is literally the punchline to a joke for me and my friends. Even now we regularly rip on it and how it was barely deserving to be considered part of the “big 3”.
Jake Young
2019-12-11 00:49:24 +0000 UTCI don't know how long you've been at The Goosh. But we never skip canon episodes.
2019-12-11 00:13:44 +0000 UTCIf we do bleach can we skip the shitty cannon stuff as well as the filler? I mean the bount arc and the reigai arc have litterally like 15 minutes of watchable content between them. That said, please vote for hajime no ippo instead its so much better.
vassardog
2019-12-11 00:04:57 +0000 UTCCan't wait for Code Geass. I know we'll get around to it eventually so I'm not worried. Bleach and AOT are pretty good too.
Jesse Gallimore
2019-12-10 23:56:31 +0000 UTCI don't put any specific series into the polls, you guys do. :-)
Spaz Boys Comedy
2019-12-10 23:45:02 +0000 UTCHurts to see Hajime no Ippo a little lower, such a good series and perfect for Curtis with the comedy, characters, fights etc.

2019-12-10 23:42:31 +0000 UTCBruh yall really want that trash known as Bleach to win
Eric Ballard
2019-12-10 23:35:12 +0000 UTCDo hajime ippo!!! you will love it
Martin Sung
2019-12-10 23:27:50 +0000 UTCI'm not opposed to that idea
2019-12-10 23:20:52 +0000 UTCWhen we started one piece there was talk about splitting the series to have some smaller shows and if bleach wins I'm going to try and round up support for that so I'm voting for bleach
Tony Gilbert King
2019-12-10 23:19:38 +0000 UTC227-265 was made canon after the novels. Zanpaktou Rebellion Arc. Other than that probably mostly right. Overall, originally there was 163 filler episodes in Bleach now there's 125.
2019-12-10 23:05:25 +0000 UTCplease do ...
Danny Larocque
2019-12-10 23:02:47 +0000 UTCif bleach are we skipping filler like with the other big3? bleach has a fair amount of filler bloat. : 33, 50, 64-109, 128-137, 147-149, 168-189, 204-205, 213-214, 227-266, 287, 298-299, 303-305, 311-342, 355 are the mostly pure filler ones I think
Sean Nelson
2019-12-10 23:01:58 +0000 UTCFor the love of god vote for ippo
WHOLESOME DEUS
2019-12-10 22:43:39 +0000 UTCHey Curtis have u decided on Sub or Dub for AOT? Personally if theres a vote I'm for the dub but I know others will want the sub.

2019-12-10 22:25:06 +0000 UTCWhile I'm fine with Bleach in general, I'm voting Code Geass because personally I don't like the idea of having two long running series at the same time.
Zach
2019-12-10 22:24:40 +0000 UTCDag. Looks like bleach will win. That means 2 slots will be taken up for a while now with Bleach and One Piece.
2019-12-10 22:23:46 +0000 UTCCOME ON IPPO!!! IT NEEDS TO HAPPEN NOW! CURTIS WILL LOVE HAJIME NO IPPO
Brother E
2019-12-10 22:23:38 +0000 UTCIf bleach wins then the big man will be on the path, to have watched the original big 3 anime most of us grew up watching.
2019-12-10 22:19:04 +0000 UTCOnce again, putting my hat in for Code Geass. It's the shortest to watch on the list, we'd be done with it in about 2 months and should also line up around the same time as Trigun, so I think those two plus probably (let's be honest, we know it's staying) One Piece will be a pretty sweet 3 reactions a day, 6 days a week block for a good while.
Dandy
2019-12-10 22:18:36 +0000 UTCHaven’t decided that yet... Gotta look into some things.

2019-12-10 22:16:53 +0000 UTC@Curtis just a heads up, Attack on Titan is not finished yet, what I believe is the final season has still yet to come out, and I don't think it's happening until Fall 2020, so if you start it now, you're going to have to wait a bit before you can finish it, just so you know, might be good to put it off till the final season starts airing so that you can watch the whole thing through at once. But it's definitely a must see anime.

2019-12-10 22:13:41 +0000 UTCHey Curtis, is bleach going to be in sub or dub if it wins?
Wishmaker007
2019-12-10 22:12:51 +0000 UTCGeass is by far the shortest of the three at 50 episodes.
Blake Lesch
2019-12-10 22:12:21 +0000 UTCAnd also, something to consider for those who are fans of the series that don't win this: At least take heart in that - just making it this far - means it probably won't be long until that series wins a poll. :-)
