Brandon Bryant

Haikyuu would also be awesome

Brady

Steins Gate > Code Geass > Frieren (haven't seen) > Parasyte (saw a couple eps, didn't love). Code Geass would probably be a better reaction series than Steins Gate though

Chrees

These really were the only viable options to begin with. Great list!

Jack mayfield

frieren is only 26 episodes right now and a nice story would be an easy watch 🙏🏻

olivia

Harvir

Looks like we’re getting code geass 💪

Sterling

Just like Steins;Gate. I'm just happy to be here

Kid Trunks

So sad Jojo didnt make it..

cade-carter

Parasyte is easily the best show here. But frieren has recently bias and code geass is just so main stream

Edgy Flame

Watch PEAK ZERO best anime ever

Nonos

I want steins gate but I’m down for code geaas to win this one since it’s peak aswell. But after that it would be nice to do steins gate, cuz I know some of them like time travel elements lol

Starkfern

Code geass is a love it or hate it show I think. It's my tied fav show. But I've shown it to friends and half love it and the other half couldn't even finish it. I hope you'll like it

Sami Casingal

What genre is Code Geass? Never seen it and wasn’t planning to

Philbo

im honestly fine with anything on this list and just out of curiosity, have any of you Geks seen any of these anime on this list???

yio

I'm so down to see Lelouch and CC again 🩵

Mikey N

Watch all 4 at some point. Think you guys should do 2 and 2 at a time <3. Also Haikyuu is a banger too

Val

Why is code geASS winning 😭

Mohammad Zaidi

I want parasyte just because it’s unique and I think you’d like the tone, but code geass is one of the best and will be a good journey

Elain

Shoulda psycho pass : (

JoLen

Hey guys I think you forgot to put JoJos on the poll again! Just a friendly reminder!

Oromis

For the love of god anything but code Geass, but it looks doomed already

Jarvis

Parasyte for sure

GB3

Both hands up giving my energy to Frieren right now

༒ dianna ༒

Where the Frieren stands at? Make it happen

kiiturii

yoo steins;gate made it to finals lol, it's gonna lose but it's still progress

Philbo

i would agree with this but i would like them to finish the other shows they havent finished yet (Invincible and 86)

brog.

hear me now studio gek im staking my reputation on the line. when you think of me from now to the end of time either think brog your takes are irrelevant code geass is mid OR brog you have immaculate taste lelouch is my glorious king. good luck.

Mohammad Zaidi

Code geass would be a good show to experience with the crew for the first time since it’s a casual watch but has a lot of good twists and complex plot. the others i may recommend watching yourself

Matthew Hunt Davies

Damn Geass is winning. Personally got to ep 10 and dropped it but oh well atleast I still get to watch GOT and OPM

Erik

Even if you don’t get to Parasyte right now you should definitely watch it, I think you guys would love it

Didus

Hoped for Jojo over Steins Gate, not that it would have won anyways i guess

Michael H

Unfortunately, I don’t see Steins Gate winning for a long while yet. It’ll get my vote, though!

G

they'll probably watch all of these eventually

DovaBro

When GOT?

treehunned

Code geass gang gang

Michael H

Code Geass has an amazing ending and some banger episodes, but man, I have trouble rewatching it all the way through. It’s definitely a necessary watch, though.

JulioLG

I have the feeling the "haters" (Cannon and Carter) won't like Code Geass. I think it falls in the realms of what they thought it was 'anime' and the reason they didn't like it. I hope I'm wrong though, I reasonabily enjoyed Code Geass, but I think they had enjoyed Berseak better ,and also Steins;Gate.

Toidleboy

Heavy hitters

Cookie

CODE GEASS LETS GO

Sora

Lelouch commands you to vote: code geass

brog.

If you say code geass is shit your skull is made of mud and your brain is made of poop. If you don’t like it that’s fine I can respect it but to say it’s bad is just utter tomfoolery. Shenanigans even.

LordFifth

I like code geass but the other shows are better

Emil Bengtsson

Steins Gate or Parasyte will have the best reactions by far...

kai

this hate im seeing for code geass? oh hell no i’ll fight all yall mfs fr

chloe

no hope that steins gate will win but it'll get my vote

Gilster

Code gyatt is crazy

Pang Rawman

I really hoped they would watch Monster but i guess that is not really realistic

Is friren exciting though? Isn't a chill anime. I think they'd want thriller

Booger

Can yall do two I need frieren 😭🙏

Bryce

Parasyte would be crazy 👀

brog.

this is my super bowl Diana I thought these guys werent gonna watch peak until 2026 after how fried it got in the last poll now there is a glimmer of hope

N P

Frieren is good and all, but it's only getting votes from recency bias

Ant just watching

Think about it they going full time they’ll eventually watch most shows

Jed

Code Geass is not it. I mean its right there in the name.

Nicholas

It is bad. It has a cool mc and that is it. Everything else is a giant mess.

yio

has exciting moments but pretty chill throughout

Nonos

Cuz it’s peak bro bro, with one of the best endings oat

Nanashi

Won't vote for it cause it won't win but Parasyte should be the one

1999

Damn Stein’s Gate got cooked 🪦

brog.

sticks and mud and poop and rocks. inside your brain.

Nazerke K

Code Geass and Parasyte let’s goooo

Nicholas

Frieren is better quality than every show on this list. It might not be more action packed but it's certainly better and not just recency bias.

BigManSirob

Steins;Gate fans I think it might be too late for you guys, so please put your votes into Frieren and I promise you we'll vote Steins;Gate next time 😤

Mitch

Congrats to code Geass with a clean sweep, I for one WILL be watching those reactions. It’s a goated anime.

CallMePew

Damn jojo’s really got beat by these

Oromis

Lots of high school drama and a protagonist that they try to present as an L level super genius. Personally I did not like it at all when I first watched it. Granted this was long ago and it was one of the first anime I watched and similar to the gek guys I also started off with a lot preconceptions about anime and I definitely wasn't that open minded to it. Maybe I'll like it now that I have watched a ton of anime, cuz I definitely remember some redeeming qualities to it, and there have been plenty of anime I hated on first watch that became my favorites on later watches(fate Zero for example).

Goldy

God I don't want code geas or friren to win

Poragami

God ffs please not code geass

Toidleboy

rough time for steins;gate lmao. while i agree frieren as a whole is better than code geass, CG at this point in time with what the boys have watched so far would make for much more engaging, entertaining reactions regarding what they will see in the plot and theory crafting along the way comparatively. theyd enjoy all 4 of these at the end of the day

Jigga Man

Aww yes Code Geass!!

Sanji

I think Carter and cannon would both love it seeing how they enjoyed Death Note and AoT.

Sanji

Think of death note and s1 Vinland saga askellad levels of war and manipulation

kivu_king

how can you rank shows that you havent seen? this is so dumb lol

Sanji

CODE GEASS!!!!!!

Hero3life

Code Geass has the best story hands down. Sure it's older and Freiren has much better animation and looks, but loses out on how much of a slow burn it is. Plus, it's not even completed yet. I vote code geass here.

Hector

All I have to say, frieren 4.9 rating across every platform and 130k+ reviews on Crunchyroll, should be a clear choice here

bondbond53

Are you shitting me and we're not getting Haikyuu???

Mitch

Bruh it’s a non shonen poll 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

Brady

Less of a ranking and more of a 'which ones I want to win the poll'. I've heard a lot of good things about Frieren and have been meaning to watch it

Tony

FRIEREN RAHHHHHHH 🗣️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️🦅💯💯💯

kivu_king

code geass = fanservice and a bit overrated its whatever steins gate = solid overall but its kind of a slow burner and hard to get into, also a bit overrated freiren = didnt watch so i will not comment parasyte = best choice imo, action packed but not brainless and shallow, i think they would enjoy it alot

Sanji

Frieren is goated but anime ratings are hella skewed. For example, I really don’t think Frieren or Gintama should be rated higher than AoT. I also don’t think Monogatari (lewd harem anime) should be rated higher than Vinland Saga and Spirited Away 💀💀 Just my opinion tho 🤷 I still love Frieren ❤️

Nemelios

CODE GEASS ALL HAIL LELOUCH

ssj4rit

All are good so we win either way

Sanji

Lelouch and GoT might just be TOO PEAK.

Ale

Any of these is a big win. People hating on CG just because it's funny tho 😂

Jesse Gutierrez

Am I the only one who thinks Code Geass is overrated? Before I watched it, I heard so much good stuff about it and how AoT copied Code Geass, so I was expecting something amazing, but it was just so average to me and I had to force myself to watch all 50 episodes to see if the hype I heard about it was legit, and I didn't feel like it was. Maybe I set way too high expectations of it due to the stuff I heard people say about it.

Hero3life

True, why not watch them all in order of votes? Code geass, frieren, parasite, then steins gate. I wouldn't mind that

Sanji

Did you like AoT? That’s interesting usually people enjoy it or at least find why it’s hyped. Ig it just wasn’t your cup of tea

Chris Alterio

Lelouch is top tier MC

Jesse Gutierrez

Yes, AoT is peak. And I heard how AoT copied things about it, so I was expecting a lot more than I probably should have. I think the big issue I have with it is when Lelouch was explaining his power to the princess, it seemed so forced just to move the plot along. Like, how are you going to tell the princess to do what he told her to do, you're supposed to be this smart ass dude and you blunder that hard? I'm trying to be vague to not spoil, but I assume you know what I'm talking about.

Rodrigo Figueroa

I have watched only 4 episodes of Frieren so idk but seems very slow paced for a reaction imo

wilma

Code Geass is so bad it drags on and on and half the plot twists are so forced plssss dont waste your time on it

Kyle

frieren will take the lead 🙏🙏🙏

Dale Cooper

CG might be one of the most overrated anime in lists like this, but not a big deal if it wins.

Jyle

who else is excited for demon slayer this sunday?!

James

Not my first choice, but I think you will like Code Gease.

Jed

Parasyte and Steins Gate fans join together and vote Frieren please. I would love to watch any of these for the reaction but I do not wanna sit through Code Geass and I'm sure you wont either.

Josh

Sipping on tears from the geass haters 🥤🙂

James

Hopefully we won't have to wait years in this channel for Steins;Gate to win a poll; it's been in the polls for The React Pack channel for three years.

corLeonis

Hoping for a time that Inuyashiki will be up in the future polls 😅 All titles in the polls are great that's why I had a hard time deciding which one 🥲 and ultimately decide for Frieren. Take note tho, it's a chill anime haha (patreon people, please tell me if what im about to say after this is a spoiler that needs to be edited out 🤣) From the title itself, you kinda have an idea for what it is. You are playing RPG games right? It's like New Game + vibes. What happens after you defeat the final boss?

Sanji

I agree that was a massive BS part to move along the story.

Londra H

aw voted for parasyte! I have not watched code geass is a FAT minute, actually wouldn’t mind watching it with yall again

Pulse rifles suck in pve

I liked code geass but the crazy cg people are lost in the sauce. Half the episodes are just copy paste with a few tweaks and some mixed in hype episodes. People are also blinded by the ending

Sanji

It gets faster paced after but that is pretty much the vibe the whole show

James Moss

Code Geass is the best choice here. Tons of reaction worthy moments and a wild plot, great characters, underrated soundtrack, etc... Frieren is great but I just don't think it's as interesting of a show to watch someone react to.

Karma

I feel like we've been getting f'ed over on haikyuu for months to the point where I don't even care anymore

Sanji

I’m sure steins gate, parasyte, and code geass would be as good if not better than Frieren if it was made in 2024. Quite literally recency bias. These anime were made in 2008-2014. Im sure in ten years, you will not be singing the same tune about Frieren. Frieren is a goat but let’s not get rash bro

Mia Malvik

Monster would genuinely be so perfect for Carter he should just watch it by himself

bondbond53

@Karma it's fine as long as we get LM reactions after they finish HxH!

James Moss

Personally it's my favorite anime. Love Frieren too but Code Geass is just such a wild ride and always sticks the landing in the biggest moments.

Johnny

Regardless of whether or not it's overrated, it has enough hype moments to warrant some fire reactions

Dean Cyphers

I know I’m judging a book my it’s cover with Frieren, Elvish themes usually don’t do it for me but what’s a good sell for the series?

Coen

Im in the same boat but then for CG, I just can't stand the Mecha genre. But if it gets picked ill probably try and finish it

Lixien

Thank you. Good show ≠ Good show for a reaction. I'm saying this as someone who likes Frieren more than CG. (Not saying that Frieren is bad for a reaction by any means but yeah)

Enma

Code Geass is entertaining and an absolute classic, but the bar is being set waaay too high. It'll be a fun reaction seeing them get whiplash from the pacing and the plot lol

Sanji

Yeah it’s def being overhyped rn but it’s fun to glaze HAHAHA

Enma

Yeah, I can't fault you for glazing. If One Piece was on here I would've done the same tbh

Thomas

WHERE ON EARTH IS PRISON SCHOOL???!!?!!!? 🤡🤡😈🤯😈🤯

Mysterious Figure

Code Geass has its place in anime history, but the amount of praise ppl are showering it with is a bit over the top. It will show how it aged badly when the boys end up seeing it for themselves, and not because of the animation quality. It's plot and themes aren't gonna feel as impactful as they did back then. It's just had it's time. And especially, for the boys, it will not hit as hard when they have seen AOT that hit harder and on so many more levels. This show will just be a watered down bad version of something similar they have seen, but with more cringe anime moments they can roll their eyes at. Code Geass is a show you should watch when you are a teenage boy really. When you get somewhat more mature it tends to seem a bit boring. All the other entries on this list will stand the test of time much better than Code Geass sadly.

Daniel

I don't really want to sit through filler the anime either though

Thomas

Also I have a crush on Kana in Parasyte so vote that one the others are dumpster fire 🔥🔥😈🤯🤯🤯🔥😈😈🤯🤡👍

spoons

one piece

Goat

code geass who? frieren who?? i only know PARASYTEEE

James Moss

Frieren has amazing characters, unique commentary on the passage of time, an incredible OST, animation that can go insanely hard, emotional moments, etc… basically it has something to love for everyone and is as high quality as you can get. I highly recommend it I just like Code Geass more haha.

beansprouts

All good anime, Funny reading the war in the comments though.

~Mercedeez Lee~

I’m voting for either Code Geass, Parasyte & Steins Gate this time around. They’ve all been on a few polls now while Frieren ain’t even an option for me since it is only on its first time round. It can just wait in my opinion, it’s finally time for one of these three to be reacted to but which one should I vote for ? Leaning more towards either Parasyte or Steins Gate since these are shorter anime, although I do like all three of them on the same level ?

Cyonated

best show losing is crazy

Thomas

Lets all remember that they are a REACTION channel. What anime gives the best reactions? PRISON SCHOOL 🔥🔥🔥

Thomas

Instead of voting for your favorite anime, vote for what would give the most hilarious and entertaining reactions, both for them and for the audience.

Thomas

Not to mention that Prison School’s emotional depth, thematic variety, and ties to philosophical functionalism are on a level incomparable to any form of media that has ever been produced by human hand.

BubblePriest

If Frieren doesn't win, anyone interested in checking it out should definitely watch it, it's a gold medal anime for sure.

Faris Alamin

I'm never not gonna vote for Steins;Gate, it no-diffs everything. Code Geass would still be a goated reaction though and Parasyte would be decent too. Just please not Frieren (good show, but didn't live up to the hype for me and not a great reaction show imo, at least up to where I stopped ~ep17). I watched Code Geass and Parasyte both for the third time in the last few years and neither hit as hard as the first two times. Steins;Gate has never not hit in the 4 times I've seen it. I know I'm gonna be hella depressed when they watch in sub though. Can't imagine Lelouch being voiced by anyone other than Jonny Yong Bosch, that shit is iconic. Best voice in all of anime imo. The final moments of S1 is one of my favourite moments and it just doesn't hit as hard in sub for me. Also, J. Micheal Tatum's portrayal of Okabe is like 25% of the reason I love Steins;Gate.

Darren Pangan

I really like Frieren too but I still voted Code Geass because 1. It's a classic 2. It's already completed 3. I think it make for better reactions because it has more hype and wtf moments.

CHIEF

Don't really care about any of these shows, just voting Freiren bc of reviews and the CG commenters are celebrating too early for my taste

Darren Pangan

That's the worst part of the show but overall I think it's still great. You just gave away a spoiler BTW.

G

Code geass dub needed ‼️

Michael Corleone

What is this fanbase bro... how is Steins;Gate not winning? It's by far the best reaction show (and arguably the best show on here). The only show I think they'd potentially consider a favorite on here too. (Also, Dub or Sub is GOAT'd.)

~Mercedeez Lee~

I’ve been waiting for quite a few anime ( that have been on many polls now ) to get a chance but always seem to miss out. The ones I really want are both Haikyuu and Mob but these aren’t on this poll since they aren’t Seinen. So I’m giving my vote to another anime that’s been on just as many polls and one that I would actually watch reactions to. Why would I vote for a newer anime that doesn’t interest me when they already did one ( solo leveling ), I wanna be able to watch their reactions to anime I have interest in. At the moment, since now that Vinland, JJK, FMAB & HXH are done, all I’m watching are their Naruto reactions now. I don’t care for the other series they’re reacting to at the moment & if they pick up another one that I don’t particularly care for then that’s gonna suck big time. So the logical conclusion is to vote for a series in which I enjoy too

Faris Alamin

I agree, it's definitely somewhat overrated. I fucking loved it when I was young and I still love it just from attachment to the characters and it's one I have great memories of being super into it with mates and stuff. Watched it in the last few years as an adult and it just didn't hit the same. Things felt forced and the writing was kind of shoddy tbh. A lot of flair with not too much depth. That said, I don't think it's even close to bad, just overrated. It's still fun to watch if you can turn your brain off a little and not think too hard.

Faris Alamin

As a Steins;Gate stan, I would rather almost every single anime in the original poll before Frieren. I really don't get the hype. It's good, not great imo.

Smokey

code geass is so good im hype. also they have a new code geass show coming out on the 10th. if yall breeze thru this show u can watch the new sequel as it releases

Sanji

HAHAHA I saw Carter say “one piece 12 hour marathon” and my hope shot up so high. I don’t think they are touching OP until Naruto shippudin is over

Christophe Monnier

Code Geass all the way ! I am absolutly sure that you will love it guys. AOT kind of peaks ngl

AlucardIV

Ok, I can accept a Code Geass win. But if they start complaining about things like the chase of unfortunately-accessorized furries, which happens very early on mind you, you’re on your own. I’ll be in my corner waiting for Table-kun’s debut. Ok, watch this turn out to be more fun for people who don’t think that highly of CG.

Mitch

Best reaction show? The first 10 episodes ie half the show is a literal snoozefest…

Hector

I see what you are saying, but Frieren it's a gold medal anime with 0 mistakes and the best put together of all the animes you mentioned (love Vinland and AOT btw)

AlucardIV

Yes, Steins;Gate is the only anime that made me contemplate watching the dub and I never watch the dub. And this was Miyano Mamoru voicing the MC we’re talking about here. That’s how brilliant J. Michael Tatum’s performance and script were.

Hector

Frieren has none of this bad things you mentioned about the others

Osvaldo

Better than every other show on original poll except maybe Monster.

Osvaldo

I liked Freiren but man that is an awful reaction anime.

vojeeisgaming

You know you guys dont always have to go for a poll, nx time u guys can just watch an anime u guys think will enjoy. Just my opinion. Some really good once out rn too like Kaiju 8, wind breaker. Your channel might go up for ongoing animes rn. Anyways i vote frieren.

hazard

do you guys have a set posting schedule?

James Moss

The dub isn't honestly that great, in my personal opinion. Lelouche's voice is perfect in the dub, but everyone's else's voices are significantly worse dubbed imo, to the point where it makes some of the best scenes noticeably not as good.

Daisy

Voted for Parasyte even though it won't win because it was my first anime. lol But good news!! I follow Togashi (the creator of Hunter x Hunter) on Twitter and he's back to writing! He's written like 20 pages in the past week which is fast for him.

Extrasauce

guys please they NEED to watch parasyte 😭

G

I’m calling it now , 4 am release

Fina Cassie

I hope you'll try steins gate tho 🥺🥺. Watching code geass after/during 86 is too much (I think)

Heather

Voted Code Geass just because I’ve seen it before and know it’s good but I plan on watching Frieren sometime soon and then I’ll probably want yall to watch that😅

andrés

Dope, code geass it is then. Thanks for the tip, i'll peep the others solo first then

Joie Dianzon 🇵🇭

Voted for PARASYTE because the concept is different from the rest. I was actually surprised that it made the final poll.

Mattchu

YES! Code geass ftw

Max Grodman

Thank god CG is fairly short hopefully frieren will win the next one

kai

imo aside from dragonball code geass has the best dub

Josh

Pain, all I know is pain

Michaela Igl

You guys will LOVE Code Geass. It’s sooooo good

Sanji

If code geass wins I hope that you guys start with dub 🙏 . The male mcs DUB VA actors put on some “Erwin death charge” levels of insanity.

James Moss

Oh man I hope not. The dub is really bad (at least compared to the sub). Lelouches voice is cool, but all the voices lack emotion and every character other than Lelouch and Suzaku honestly ruin a lot of scenes. I was comparing the two a few months ago switching back and forth and even with Lelouches voice, the Japanese VA has so much more depth and emotion.

James Moss

I'd definitely disagree with that. As someone who watched the sub first and then watched some dub to compare, the dub is really bad, and I'm not even a sub snob. (I like AOT and FMAB dubbed) People say the dub is good because Lelouch has a cool voice, but the dub completely strips all the emotion and natural flow out of the show. The female characters like Nunnally and Kallen sound awful and a lot of their scenes are borderline ruined haha.

Kyosuke Kagami

DAH-DAH-DAH-DAH-DAH BA-DAH-DAH DAH-DAH-DAH-DAH-DAH BA-DAH-DAH DAH-DAH-DAH-DAH-DAH BA-DAH-DAH BAH-DA-DA-DAAAH JIBUUUUUUUUUUUUUUN WOOOOOOOOOO

Kyosuke Kagami

I really liked Psycho Pass but I'd never want to rewatch it again. More talking than Gundam. Endless yap fest. Akane is 10/10 legendary waifu though.

Kyosuke Kagami

IN JESUS MIGHTY NAME I REBUKE ONE PIECE FOREVER. This patreon is for anime, not Nick Jr cartoons. Look I used to love Gullah Gullah Island as a baby, I get it. But we're trying to watch anime here.

Ly

I’ve been waiting for them to watch Code Geass from the very start, as soon as they finished AOT. Can’t believe my patience is finally rewarded! Please watch it in SUB! Dub is good only for the mc, the rest characters sound flat and boring in English.

Kyosuke Kagami

Norio Wakamoto says no bro. Charles ain't Charles without that RUUUUURURUSHUUUUU.

Ayaulym🇰🇿

I am so excited for Code Geass but then I remember some moments with CC… well, at least we will all cringe together

Kyosuke Kagami

Gonna be 100% honest here. Frieren is boring. I don't even think that's a hot take. Have the Geks ever dropped a series part way? I think they would drop Frieren tbh.

James Moss

Yup. Lelouch is great in the Dub, but he's just as good in sub (and IMO better) and the rest of the characters have so much more emotion and just sound natural. The dub sounds like they are reading off of lines and the voice acting for characters like Nunnally are terrible.

alex!

parasyte my poor baby doesn't stand a chance ); hopefully it can make another poll

James Moss

I voted for Code Geass but Frieren is amazing. There's a reason it's rated so highly. Almost everyone likes it.

Matis

Wich show will the anime from this poll be replacing?

Kyosuke Kagami

Frieren is definitely not a series suited for a reaction channel. It's a slow burn to get to an even slower burn. Five bros on a couch watching the sleepiest medieval adventure series ever just doesn't seem like a winning formula.

Ali

Steins gate has a lot of heart, and mind lol. A true masterpiece and so different from what you guys think of anime so far. Hope you guys get to experience it soon.

Nemelios

I love frieren and i don't think the show is necessarily boring but it's not really a show for their kind of reaction

SomeoneElse

I'd vote for Steins Gate but there's no way it'll win so I'll vote Code GAS

Ayaulym🇰🇿

I meant there are some fan service moments with her and some other female characters which will be cringy. Thankfully not a lot of them

Poragami

God, you are so cringe typing that without feeling dumb. Everyone has their own taste and IMO, Code Geass did not age well lol

Max Demian

Steins Gate beats Frieren 7:1. Frieren is not bad but its also not great for reaction channel of 5 guys

AA

STEINS GATEEEEE AND PARASYTE 😭

G

I think it’s clear already who won 😭

Fatipapi

Unpopular opinion: steins gate is very overrated

Jake

code geass gonna be a snooze fest it was great for its time but mecha animes are just so boring

Markus

code geass is great but there is alot of fan service in it, which ruins certain moments, but overall very excited for you guys to react to it

Talia

I see quite a few people comparing CG with AoT and I find it so odd. The only things in common they have are scale and an overall theme, but they explore and show it very differently. I would never be like "Oh, you liked AoT, then watch CG they are so alike". It's completely different show, so please don't expect anything like AoT. It's still a golden anime but in a very different way. If anything I could compare CG with Death Note, just in bigger scale.

Have any of them watched code geass?

or...hear me out...just more game of thrones lol

Day 523 of suggesting Code Geass!

BigManSirob

Okay I have some thoughts about this poll and about what some people have been saying in regards to some of the shows. First of all, congrats to Code Geass for winning. Personally, I was hoping that Frieren would win since I've never seen Code Geass. However, instead of some immature people in the comments who want to put down the shows that they haven't voted for because they're mad or whatever, I'll say this. I remember wanting FMAB to win the poll back in September and I was not happy when HxH won it instead, but then I watched HxH and now I would say that's it's in my top 5. I would still say FMAB is better but now I'm glad that HxH won that poll otherwise I might have never given it a chance, so since Code Geass has won this poll when I have the time I'll watch it and I hope that after I finish I can look back at this poll and be glad it won, regardless of if I think Frieren is still better or not. Plus Frieren is probably going to win the next poll anyway. Secondly, as I said I'm not disappointed that Code Geass won, but I am unhappy with some of the comments that people have been putting. My main concern, I guess, would be with the people that have been saying that Frieren is "extremely slow/boring" or "a horrible show for reactions". Isn't this whole poll so that they can watch different kinds of shows?? Isn't the reason that they didn't put some of the usual options on this poll so that they could watch something different/something aimed at a different audience?? It's super backwards to say "I'm not voting for this show because it's not the type of thing they usually watch so I don't think they'll like it". Well then, LET'S SEE IF THEY LIKE IT OR NOT, THAT'S THE WHOLE POINT! I think it's pretty boring when they just watch the same kinds of mindless action shows again and again. Sure, it is a "fun watch", but the discussions basically boil down to "wow, that fight scene was really cool" "yep, it sure was" "and I like this character" "yeah, I like him too". That's not a fault of the boys there just really isn't that much to say about those kinds of anime. That's why shows like AoT, Vinland Saga, Death Note, and FMAB are so much more entertaining to watch a reaction for and that's also why I believe shows like Steins;Gate and Frieren would be a good watch, especially considering we haven't really seen reactions to animes like that on this channel. There's also the fact that all of that discourse is around Frieren of all things which is a show I would definitely NOT consider to have no hype action moments. Some of the best animated sequences of at least the past year have been from Frieren. It has been at minimum on the level of Solo Levelling if not Jujutsu Kaisen. It IS tecnically still a shounen at heart. Not to mention they've already seen less-shouneny shows than Frieren before (Vinland Saga and Death Note). Honestly, it just doesn't make me look forward to when anime's that are ACTUALLY slow and have no action (like Steins;Gate) get into the top 2 of a poll. Looking back at what I've typed I MIGHT have yapped a bit too much, but everything said is true and I hope others agree 🙃 (looking forward to watching Code Geass)

James Moss

I think some people were just smearing Frieren because they wanted other shows to win lol. Frieren is amazing. But Code Geass is a top tier anime (especially for reactions) and will provide a lot more discussion compared to Frieren because it has a complex plot and characters with tons of depth. Code Geass is not primarily an "action" anime and is in the same range as AOT and 86 in terms of genre imo. That being said, I do think it would be interesting to see them watch Frieren at some point since it is much different than anything they've watched so far.

Andy Larkin

We not reading all that lil bro. Why would you want to watch a reaction of a show you've seen.. Wouldn't it be much more enjoyable to watch a reaction and experience a new show?

Sami Casingal

For me, I love when people react to shows I’ve seen and fell in love with (while ofc also welcoming some new shows) just because I know how I reacted to it when I first saw it so I want to see how others react to it. And if it’s an anime I thought was really cool, I want to see other people end up falling in love with it too. It’s the same for kpop and Asian dramas for me as well. I believe that if we like something, we have this urge and tendency to want to show it off to others and see how they think of it (or at least a lot of people might feel this way like I do)

James Moss

It's because we love the show/song/movie etc... so we vicariously live through others experiencing it for the first time to get that experience again. And yeah it's also just really fun to share an experience with other people and reaction channels provide an outlet for that, especially if you don't have friends who are interested in anime/shows/movies or whatever.

Sanji

Around 8 months ago , I remember both Carter and McKay being really hyped about watching CG bc it’s Moistcritikals favorite anime.

Sanji

I think people compare the two bc of some certain events that are similar between both animes. But yeah you right the vibe ain’t the same at all tbh.

Sanji

IK they are gonna be in shambles when they see the desk reaction

Zess

This was my top anime for like a decade lol I'm so excited for yall to watch it! Also again, every show on this poll is so fucking good. Literally not a single disappointing show to watch here.

Zess

I can agree that the sub is better overall with more characters voices, but dont discredit JYB there. Hes a goat of english voice acting, and his lelouch performance is actually one of the best examples out there for english voice acting. He performed lelouch just as well in my opinion, if not even better. @James Theres only 1 other english voice acting performance Id say is better, and thats Spike.

Zess

You say that like there arent reactors actively reacting to freiren right now, and doing well with it lol its a good show, so it will be a good watch. Slower pace doesnt equal bad for reactions, especially when the writing is good and has you engaged. The fact you think itd be so bad for them, makes it seem like you think theyre children only looking for action lol Vinland Saga S2 should have already nipped this sentiment in the bud.

Zess

Someday soonish I bet. It got more votes than I expected, so sooner than I originally would have thought!

Zess

The sequel has a HIGH chance of actually being bad lol we'll see if they can make the magic again. The story did end perfectly anyway.

Zess

Honestly all those scenes that most fans majority hate, I think will be fun for reactions lol even if theyre shitting on it.

Zess

Then why is it still in peoples top rated shows almost 20 years later? Thats the definition of standing the test of time lol

Zess

Kyosuke with his classic bad anime takes lol the only ones who think that of one piece are only people who havent actually watched it.

alex!

very true i was shocked to see it as an option ! i will wait for the day to come </3

Nemelios

so excited for full time and code geass !!

Nathan

Personally I don't understand the hype around Frieren, I watched 7 episodes and just got bored of it. No I'm not just an action anime guy. I watch sports, Romance, comedies all the same. Maybe I'm missing out, but I know code geass is a banger.

AA

Nothing time travel related is ever overrated or boring

Kyosuke Kagami

Imagine still thinking "everyone has their own opinion" is a worthwhile rebuttal. I don't understand how this is still many peoples' go-to defensive response. Unreal.

Kyosuke Kagami

Literally everyone who replied either said "yeah well..." or "ur wrong" with no follow up rebuttal. So basically everyone agrees Frieren is boring even when defending it.

Fatipapi

I had to force myself to finish it cuz a friend told me it was amazing. So that combined with the high rating on imdb gave me high hopes and expectations. I was very disappointed 😂

Bingsu

Hoping for Parasyte to win but no chance at all. Maybe not now, but soon. Leggo Code Geass.

Zess

Thats one way to interpret what I said I guess lol I think youre just telling on yourself that you need fast paced constant action or its buns to you. Gilster got it right with the tik tok brain.

Zess

People go back and it still holds up. There also has to be a distinction, otherwise you could say that about literally everything lol

sil

this is a good list of 4 anime to watch one after another i don’t knowwwww 👀👀🙌🏻✨✨✨🙂‍↕️🙂‍↕️🙂‍↕️🙂‍↕️ like yeah code geass first then maybe the second most voted next and so on?

ash

code geass was my #1 anime for 8 years before AOT came along so les goooooo (warning: you’ll have to ignore a few ass & titties shots but the show is sooo worth it)

ash

i think they will LOVE it tbh. they’ll probs just be like ugh at the fan service lol

ash

the ppl so mad over geass got me cracking up like damn.. it’s just anime. i’m sooo hype though phew

Ernesto Blanco

First time Code Geass! Let's see what all the hype is about :)

Julio cruz

So excited for Code Geass!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

neko

are we getting code geass this week?

James

In Frieren, there's themes involving the importance of friendship, dealing with grief, and leaving a legacy; there are universal lessons that can be learn from the story in Frieren which applies to almost everyone regardless of age, ethnicity, nationality, etc. The part in the story which shows how vulnerable humans are, and for which Frieren herself knows is a weakness of humans, was well written.

Sanji

I think they might go 👀💀😨😱🤯😳 at a certain scene with a desk

Kyosuke Kagami

I wake up. I refresh. I see no Code Geass. It is an endless cycle.

Ly

I really hope they choose SUB, otherwise I’ll be disappointed in this life

Albin Limani

They will probably choose sub, but the dub for Code Geass is one of the best out there.

ash

any chance y’all will switch things up and watch the dub please??🥺 it would be easier to watch too..

ash

not sure but they typically watch subs which is why i’m begging for this ahead of time😁

Sanji

I think they’ll definitely give both a shot like they did with FMAB and see which one they like better 🙏

G

Maybe they’ll do a poll again hope so

bondbond53

Brace yourselves for another sub and dub discourse...

James Moss

Sub is a lot better than dub on this one. People gonna push for dub because they like Lelouche's dub voice (although the Japanese VA literally won awards for voice acting Lelouch and is still better overall), but the side character's dubs are awful and ruin (or at least dampen the impact) of the best scenes in the show. I would have a tough time watching through the dub knowing y'all would be missing out on the better version of the show.

kai

i hope yall do dub for cg

James Moss

It's totally fine if you like the dub, I'm just saying that (imo obviously) the dub has not aged well at all so I don't think it's a good experience for people watching the show for the first time nowadays.

idcjayyy

At this point they need to just watch Monster on their own time because I guarantee it will go into their top 3. One of the best plots in anime of all time

Just Anime

MONSTER > ALL OF THIS ANIME

Emil Bengtsson

honestly hope they choose the Dub as well for code Geass

Puthea Kan

Love all of these, but respectfully, Steins Gate will blow your minds

y are you mad

steins gate is kinda weird some times but the plot is amazing. i voted for code tho but i have to say the same thing about it xD sometimes very weird but the plot is dope

y are you mad

jojos must be somewhere on the watchlist too btw ;)

Robin Kay

I know that it was not even part of the poll but you guys should consider the first season of Rising of the Shield Hero! 😁

Pats

I only watch sub but just looked at the dub cast for code geass and it’s amazing, would be keen to see the boys watch an episode of both. Boys it has greed, lust and mustang from FMAB, all the best 👌🏼

Matthias Kufner

Code Geass was the first anime I saw, to this day has the best ending. One of the greats imho

G

Please dub

Ari_iya_kia

Code Geass is one of the few anime's with excellent dub, so dub pleaseee

Brian Estepa

Code Geass for sure but you guys NEED to do parasyte after. I promise you will not regret it.

Iris

Not gonna lie, looking for the next Studio Ghibli post! Need a poll for that too!!!!
