Anime Guild Award 2016 Winners.

~BEST MALE MAIN CHARACTER~
From having great comedic deliveries to believable and relatable drama, it's a main character's job to help the viewers become engrossed in the story an anime sets up. And while not every main character is created equal, it's always good to take a moment and appreciate the ones that really stand out.

~BEST FEMALE MAIN CHARACTER~
Whether they touch our hearts emotionally or simply kick ass, a main female's role is just as important as a main male's. A solid lead cast is often what helps drive an anime forward and keep things alive and fresh, so let's make sure to share some love for the strong female ones as well.

~BEST SUPPORTING CHARACTER~
Overlooked by some, the supporting cast can often be what sets apart a good overall cast from a great one. Well written and enjoyable supporting characters highlight elements of the main cast and story that those main characters simply can't do on their own. And that's where these lovely candidates shined the brightest!

~BEST ANIMATION~
We all know those shows that try to make use of crappy CGI, have boring backrounds or have low detailed backround characters. The shows where an epic fight scene is adapted as a stickfigure fight. The follwing shows did not do any of that. Instead they have the best animations in 2016.
1. Mob Psycho 100 (84 Points)
2. Flip Flappers (56 Points)

~BEST STUDIO~
If we're here to celebrate the best of the best in anime in 2016, it would be a shame for us to ignore the studios which brought us all these anime we came to love. Or maybe not love in some cases... but either way, without the efforts of the people working at these studios and producing the anime, we would not all be together here today.
1. Bones (99 Points)
2. Studio Deen (75 Points)
3. Trigger (39 Points)

~BEST SEQUEL~
When one season is not enough to cover all the storylines, build a world or let all the characters develope, we hope and pray to the Anime Gods that the studios are gracious enough to give us watchers a continuation. Sometimes our prayers are unheard, sometimes new seasons don't turn out the way we want them to, but in some cases those 2nd seasons are everything we wanted them to be. Here are the 5 shows of 2016 that turned out to be that.
1. Assassination Classroom Second Season (73 Points)
2. Haikyuu!! 3rd Season(70 Points)
3. Shokugeki no Soma: The Second Plate(44 Points)
Honorable Mentions
4th Place: Bungou Stray Dogs S2(28 Points)

~BEST WORLD BUILDING~
Every show needs a setting, a world where the story plays out. In this category we look at those different worlds, that we encountered in 2016. Be it a mafia world in a prohibition era, a dark fantasy world with despair creeping around every corner or a colorful dreamland
where every episodes leads us into a different kind of world. We saw all those worlds in 2016 and decided that those are the most creative or interesting worlds we have seen.

~SO BAD IT'S GOOD~
There are two different types of bad when it comes to anime. On one side there are the shows that are bad, because they are boring and then on the otherside there are the shows that are so hilariously bad, that you can't do anything than laugh at them and have a good time. For this category we look at the second kind the shows that are so bad that they are good.
