CATDOLL: Japanese animation popularity ranking "Re:Zero -Starting Life in Another World" surpasses "Your Name." and causes heated discussion

Recently, the most popular Japanese animations are the TV animation "Re:Zero -Starting Life in Another World" and the animated film "Your Name." These are two completely different types of works, and anime fans would not compare them together. However, the latest issue of the animation magazine "NEW TYPE" has to compare the popularity of these two works, which has also caused many anime fans to complain.

The latest issue of "NEW TYPE" announced the popularity rankings such as the top 10 popular animations, the top 10 popular female characters, and the top 10 popular male characters. Among them, "Re:Zero -Starting Life in Another World" won the first place in popular animation, Rem topped the first place in popular female characters, and Makoto Shinkai's animated film "Your Name." won the second place in popular animation. From the ranking, it seems that "Re:Zero -Starting Life" is more popular than "Your Name.", but it still feels a bit wrong to compare the popularity of theatrical animation and TV animation.

Regarding the ranking of "NEW TYPE", Japanese netizens also expressed their disagreement: "Animation broadcast on TV like "Re:Zero" is not at the same level as the movie released in theaters by Makoto Shinkai.", "I think the plot of "Re:Zero" is better than "Your Name."", "I hope you will stop comparing "Your Name.", an animation that has made history with a box office of 10 billion, with late-night animation like "Re:Zero." It seems that everyone thinks that such a comparison is meaningless. So what do you think about the popularity ranking of this animation? Let's talk about it together.
