Round one continues with four match-ups today, one from each our “regions.”
You can vote on the match-ups below, but we also encourage you to subscribe to our Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram accounts. The fun there is in participating in the communal aspect of the games, as our subscribers cheer for their favorites and express disdain for others. The social media aspect has also been a way that we can provide voting throughout the week, though we’re going to take that option to the blog as well. Voting on the blog closes at 9:00 a.m. ET tomorrow.

Shounen / Popular Region
2020 Anime Region
