Aoki and Hiroe are writing it together it seems. A true collaboration.
The art design/direction team are a mix of Tokyo Majin's art director and art setting designer, Bubuka Bebeki's art guys, and an Aldnoah dude. Should look garish as hell.

OK cool. hopefully this turns out better than Aldnoah did. I'm just gonna go to bed before I fail at reading comprehension some more.
I expect this show to have everything bad about GaRei 0, Fate/Zero, and Aldnoah Zero rolled into one. I'm just shocked it isn't called Re:Creators Zero.

Why is the art direction so bad? What's with the lighting? The photography? The composition? The colour design? The character design?
The Beyond eh?

The Beyond is an odd subtitle to use, but I'm pretty happy about this.
March Comes In Like a Lion: 8
Ugh, the most obnoxious aspects of the show came back in full force for the first half of the episode. There are all these annoying people who just wants to violate personal spaces.
As for the second half, it's okay. Mainly it is the viewer's first introduction to Kyoko, who is a creepy person. Her character sort of jumps between being cheesily over the top, and genuinely creepy and manipulative, so I don't think she is a good character so far. That said, I did find the last moment where she verbally twists a knife on Rei's feelings to be effective.

Just going off the image, looks like
Soushi 2.0 with the ghost of old Soushi
Looks fun.
You could definitely say that about a lot of things from this show, not only the action.

Damn, I knew there was a show that was erased from my memories, but I couldn't quite put my finger on it until now.

Oh well. I'm sure a lot of people forgot about it since it aired in the winter season; Still one of the best shows of the year.

absolutely loved that scene. Felt real and heartfelt..
Looking through the shows I watched throughout the years, here's what I'd consider putting on my AOTY list.
Winter
Konosuba
Haikyuu
Spring
JoJo
Kiznaiver
Kuromukuro
Re:Zero
Space Patrol Luluco
Summer
Mob Psycho
Thunderbolt Fantasy
Fall
Haikyuu (though I'll only vote for it once)
To Be Hero
maybe Girlish Number after I finish it
Rakugo will be in there if I'll finish it before the voting ends.

Honobono Log ep.1-5
I have to say that often the most simplistic things can be really well done. These 2 min shorts are simple, yet are able to convey they message they set out to. Each one is completely separate, but they are very cute. Like animated Hallmark cards really...

Ei Aoki must be hard up for money or really cynical at this point.

The good series.
Flip Flappers 13
I didn't care about any of that. Maybe if all of the story nonsense over the last few episodes wasn't so bad, I could have appreciated this episode for the animation but I was actively mad for most of the episode. I'd like to see what the original writer had planned for the show because it sure as hell would have been better than this garbage, I have to assume the third child did something of importance in the original draft, because here she only existed as a cutaway from the events that were meant to be important just like the rest of Salt's team. Congratulations on crashing and burning more than any other show this year, Flip Flappers.

I see that we have different tastes. Don't worry about it!

Hey, someone else watched this! It is pretty good, who knew a short romance anime could work so well.

Give My Hero Academia a try it's fantastic
and the best anime of the year!
Also worth checking out
Haikyu
Tales of Zestiria the X
Occultic Nine
Poco's Udon World
Mob
Don't give too much attention to people hating things you like here or you won't come out alive.

If you think Erased and Flip Flappers are the 2 stand out shows of 2016, you have distinctly different tastes than most of AnimeGAF, as most of the people in this community turned on both shows midway through their airing.
Most people consider those 2 shows a disappointment, they started good , but went bad in the later parts.
As for your previous question, here are some shows i think have stood out this year :
Winter
Konosuba
Haikyuu
Rakugo
Grimgar of Fantasy and Ash
Spring
JoJo
Kiznaiver
Kuromukuro
Re:Zero
My Hero Academia
Flying Witch
Summer
Mob Psycho
Thunderbolt Fantasy
Alderamin
I consider everything in my list a few posts up worth checking out, here's some more info to them:
Mob Psycho 100: might have the best animation out of any TV anime this year and has good action, comedy, lots of character development and a satisfying conclusion (though there is an obvious season 2 hook at the end)
JoJo's Bizarre Adventure - Diamond is Unbreakable (you'd need to watch the 2012 anime and Stardust Crusaders before.
Haikyuu S2 and S3 - really good volleyball anime that never steps into unrealistic/fantasy ability territory, with great characters + development and a kick-ass soundtrack.
Thunderbolt Fantasy: wuxia puppets are awesome
Kiznaiver: character drama with supernatural elements.
Kuromukuro: one of the best recent mecha shows.
Most people here, you mean - don't confuse opinion on 'gaf for opinion writ-large. There's probably not a ton of argument about the back-half of Erased, but Flip Flappers has been incredibly divisive - outside of here, I probably know more people who are overwhelming positive about it than negative. Who is right and wrong about it is entirely up to debate, but what you get out of that show seems to be entirely down to what you expected to get out of it.

I dont think someone would be at a soushi bday fafner event without having seen exodus.
Thanks! Some of those seem a bit too shounen for me, but Poco's Udon World and Occultic Nine look interesting and I hadn't considered them before.
Well, that certainly wouldn't be the first time, and I'm not too worried about it.
I mean, I can agree that both of these didn't end as strongly as they began, but if they did they would be in the running for my best of all time selection (which is quite competitive, given that I've been watching anime since 1998), not just my best of this year

I cant wait its all I ever wanted for ToukenRanbu.
I just wish they had more creative backgrounds in their anime.

Well, it depends. You said those are your standout series, but we don't know what other seires you have watched. Maybe the other ones were also pretty meh, that would explain it!

You don't have to be worried about it. It's just that if those are your preferred kinds of anime and you're not interested in anime such as Showa Genroku Rakugo Shinjuu and Mob Psycho 100, you're probably going to find few people here able to give you recommendations you will enjoy.

Don't worry, I got your back. Erased was my favorite this year. Don't let them force feed you that boring rag show.
Check out Konosuba, Mob Psycho 100 and Re;Zero as well

Man...Yao is clueless of people want to kill her and yet when she know, she use it as a way to win something even if it might kill her. Also, not very smart that the person she admired is the same person who want to kill her. Still like the fun wacky stuff in this episode.
