As far as the rankings go, My Hero Academia season 6 has taken the second position, followed by Cyberpunk: Edgerunners at third.

Fans thrilled as Attack on Titan: Final Season part 2 secures the first position
After a long wait following the release of part 1, Attack on Titan: The Final Season part 2 was released to the sheer delight of many. While the first half of season 4 ended right before the big battle, part 2 opened with Marley's forces heading to Paradis, highlighting the Eldians' suffering.
Eren and Reiner, meanwhile, were able to face off again. The Titans defeating the Global Alliance, and Eren announcing his desire to destroy the world marked the end of the extremely engaging season that was packed with action, politics, and philosophy.
The cliffhanger finale of part 2 spawned numerous fan speculations about Eren's true nature, increasing the series' popularity even further. As a result, it is easy to see why Filmarks, Japan's foremost entertainment review website, has ranked it first. Here is the complete list of rankings:
- 1) Attack on Titan: The Final Season part 2
- 2) My Hero Academia season 6
- 3) Cyberpunk: Edgerunners
- 4) Made in Abyss season 2
- 5) JoJo Bizarre Adventure Stone Ocean part 2
- 6) Kaguya-Sama season 3
- 7) JoJo Bizarre Adventure Stone Ocean part 1
- 8) Kingdom season 4
- 9) The Heike Story
- 10) Spy × Family
How have the fans reacted to this news?
Attack on Titan: Final Season part 2, based on the original manga by Hajime Isayama, has received unanimous support from fans as deserving of the title. When it first came out, the hype was exceptional.
However, the animanga community has not agreed upon the rest of the rankings. Some of the outcomes are fairly surprising, if not downright disappointing.
Some fans, for example, have questioned My Hero Academia's high ranking, while others have been frustrated that one of the most anticipated anime right now, Chainsaw Man, is missing from the list.
Fans can watch part 2 of Attack on Titan’s final season on Crunchyroll’s streaming service, as well as on Funimation and Hulu.
