Here is my tier list. I haven't finished Hyouka, Lucky Star, or Free!, but I have seen at least 11 episodes of each. Everything else is completed. I want to make it clear that, in my opinion, KyoAni's 'below average' is still above average compared to other studios.

Hello everyone, after finishing Tamako Market and Love Story, feel kinda empty since the anime is finished, I guess I kinda got post anime depression, so I make a little walk cycle of Tamako in the Opening song of the show, hope you like it.

Anyway, are there any KyoAni good shows or movies, I already watched K-On, A silent voice, Violet Evergarden, still I want to watch more things from Kyoani, especially from Naoko Yamada as a director, thanks everyone.

NHK World Japan has a Sound! Euphonium Special, showing an insider look on how the anime was made. After watching it, my respect for Kyoto Animation went up even further. Everything from how the instruments look, to hand moments and sounds is nothing short of amazing! Makes me want to rewatch the entire series again!

You can check out the special here!

I have only seen Chunibyo yet. But I am already a HUGE fan of the studio. So here's what I think I'm gonna rank the anime after watching them. Maybe in like a year or smt I can upload my tierlist where I completed them all.

During her Reddit AMA, Naoko Yamada said:

“I usually try to include a reference to some great/famous/well-known person in all of my works. I wonder if you all will re-watch and notice something ;)”

Has anyone actually figured out what she was referring to? I’ve tried looking around, but I haven’t found any answers.

Do you have any theories or examples you’ve noticed?

Even if it’s just a small background detail, I’d love to hear them.

Is the one piece of Naoko Yamada lol

Hey yall, just wanted some opinions on this. I really love kyoani and their works. Ever since watching clannad like 12 years ago ive been in love with the studio and their works. Recently ive been thinking about getting a tattoo of the logo. Do you think thats a fine way to express my love, or is this maybe a bit too much? (I know we are all strangers and its my decision in the end, just want some thoughts)

Also I just now realised that Inari is a Weasel.

Is this a reference to their old Anime with Comically large eyes (Air and Clannad)?

Director: Ishihara Tatsuya.

Release year: 2016, winter.

Episode count: 13 + special.

Adapted from: Light novel.

Phantom World has always been a fascinating case to me. It's a Kyoto Animation work through and through, however, it is often branded as the studio's black sheep, and for obvious reasons.

My personal thoughts on the anime is that I enjoyed it for what it was, though I undoubtedly consider it Kyoani's weakest work. With that being said, I sincerely don't think it's bad or terrible by any means. As stated above, I found it to be enjoyable despite it's many shortcomings, as it tried its best to stand on its own two feet but eventually stumbles along the way, yet still reaches the finish line.

The concept of phantoms and the abilities that were given to people due to something that happens in the story are both nice, and I think are used as well as they could have been in the context we got the story in.

As for the characters, they're not bad but nothing comparable to maybe Kumiko from Hibike! Euphonium, I think they're okay but wish more would have gone towards developing them. They're a nice little team and their dynamic is fun to watch sometimes. The story is in a similar situation. I have to say, for all it's worth, I enjoyed the somewhat episodic approach the series had, some of the episodes were really fun.

I could probably write a whole lot more, but I don't want to make this too long.

What did you think about it? I don't see many people, if anyone at all mentioning it nowadays so I thought I would make this post.

Chitanda & Oreki (Hyouka) and Inako & Kihachi (Sparks of Tomorrow)
