How does that saying go? "Always the Bridesmaid, never the Bride?" Well, no more!
We are sadly ending No. 6 in a few weeks, so I want to poll its replacement -- and the choices are shows that have taken 2nd place in the polls so far!
This should be fun! Vote for ANY and ALL show...

The final episodes of the Slam Dunk anime! I do really like seeing the "lead up to nationals" finally animated -- and while it's not the amazing National matches, it was cool to see this "all star" team up of characters face one another in a final match!
However, how does the ending h...

I have a secret about baseball to share with you all, but also, this series is pretty crazy right off the bat (pun intended)! From our wild boy Sawamura to our troll Kazuya, to one instantly badass coach -- this series should be a fun romp in the sports anime world!
This episode has a lot going for it: Sousuke moving forward, Natsuya getting the tea from Nao (and giving Nao the tea, literally), Hiyori and Ikuya angst, and Haru has a surprise for us ALL at this tournament!
Oh my, y'all, there's SO MUCH to talk about this episode!
Nezumi's past is FINALLY revealed, but now there's more questions, concerning Nezumi and Safu's connection, Safu's role in all of this, and what Shion is going to do with the new information given to him!
We're building towards the climax of the series, and I have no clue how it's going to ...
