Anime UK DVD: Best Series of 2006

I voted for Elfen Lied to be one of the finalists, but unfortunatly not enough people agreed with me.

Elfen Lied missed out on being a finalist by just one vote, so if you wanted Elfen Lied to be there, but didn't vote, then there is only yourself to blame. (I'm not saying that you didn't vote, btw, just stating a point)

Overall, I'm happy with the way the voting turned out, and while there are some series I thought should be in the final sixteen, I was not the only person voting and my opinion is only one of many. If folks want to have an impact, there is still a chance.

I though elfien lied was great havent seen the last vol yet but still. If I did vote it would have to go with neon though since it is my fav series of all and the platinum edition was great. But loads of sereies there I love, I have seen some of samurai 7 up to vol 4 and dont think anywhere near as good as samurai champloo. But its still good
 
resurecting this old news post about the awards, instead of being annoying and posting another one... I'll be announcing the awards live on Sunday, between 5pm & 6pm in the IRC channel: irc://irc.dejatoons.net/auk be sure to join me!
