Re:Zero finally takes over the Newtype Rankings for October 2016 edition

Re:Zero may be the hottest anime today, but it hasn’t really been as dominant as one might expect in Newtype Magazine’s Newtype Rankings. With its popularity, the series could take the #1 spots in the rankings easily, however, other series like Macross Delta, Kabaneri of the Iron Fortress, and Bungou Stray Dogs faring a lot better so far. That changes with the October 2016 rankings however, as the anime finally takes a couple of first place finishes.

Male Rankings:

1. Koyomi Araragi (Monogatari series)


2. Kirito (Sword Art Online)


3. Taki Tachibana (your name.)


4. Hayate Immelman (Macross Delta)


5. Ikoma (Kabaneri of the Iron Fortress)


6. Guts (Berserk)


7. Subaru Natsuki (Re:Zero)


8. Archer (Fate series)


9. Char Aznable (Gundam)


10. Atsushi Nakajima (Bungou Stray Dogs)

Female Rankings:

While Re:Zero has gained a stronger footing, Newtype Rankings stalwarts like the Fate Series, Sword Art Online, and the Monogatari series have all remained strong, while Makoto Shinkai’s critically acclaimed anime movie, your name., has blazed through to do very well.

…and here we are just wondering why Kira Yamato is still out. But don’t worry though, we know he’ll be back.
