Choose your top three in ANN's poll!

Anime fans around the world are getting to warm up with a new season of anime in January. The season is offering a lot of sequels to earlier favorites, teenage landlords and the return of Kyoto Animation . One particular sequel topped the list of Charapedia's poll.

The second season of Assassination Classroom was crowned #1 with 419 voting points but was strongly favored by female voters over male voters. It only ranked #10 among men, who instead are anticipating the second season of the fantasy-military series GATE . Durarara!!×2 Ketsu came in third overall, which is surprising when each of the previous seasons took the top spot in their respective seasons.
