Guidelines for adding to our anime ranking list.

Add your own favorite anime for others to vote on! We use manual approval, so your recommendations may take some time to appear. All submissions of any genre (including yuri and yaoi) are welcome, so make sure none of the great shows you have seen are missing from our list of anime series! Just don't add any hentai, because it will be deleted. Please search (CTRL+F) for the title before adding so we don't get duplicates.

You do not have to add multiple seasons and sequels of the same show to the list. For example, all OVAs of Hunter x Hunter would fall under the same "H x H" category; same case with Naruto and Naruto Shippuuden episodes. However, such animes like Hellsing and Hellsing Ultimate or the different Gundam series can be added separately.

Please note that the rankings above are for the best anime series. If you wish to submit your favorite movie, or find good ones to watch use our list of best anime movies instead.
