2014 was a year full of decent, entertaining shows, but once I started compiling this list, I found that not a whole lot of shows particularly stood out. It was easy to find ten anime that I wouldn’t hesitate to put on this list, but if I removed any of them, I found it difficult to find a replacement. I’ve never been the type to try out every single show that airs in a season, so maybe it’s just a matter of having a low sample size. In any case, 2014 may not be a year of great anime, but it was definitely a year of fun anime.
(Note: this list includes anime that ended in 2014, and movies whose home releases were released in 2014)
