      That may be the least controversial list since the beginning of those polls.

      I really don’t have much to say about it.

      It’s interesting to see Hyouka so high. It doesn’t really revolve around the mysteries at all. It’s feels more synonymous with SOL series than mystery series tbh.

    3. Shadows House gathered an impressive amount of gold medals, while having close to zero bronze ones. It clearly left a strong impression on people that voted for it. I wonder how it would fare after a hypothetical third season.

      I’m honestly surprised Case Closed/Detective Conan is in 17th, it’s one of the first shows I thought of when thinking about mystery anime.

      Seems like a pretty good list, even though a good chunk aren’t strictly anime. I’m happy Baccano is on the list, it’s one of my favorites. Although I don’t think I actually voted for it.

      Death note and steins: gate’s positions are killing me. And i genuinely dont understand how some of the top picks 4-8 are there.

      Surprise to see The Promise Neverland on the list, considering what happened to season 2.

    7. I have to make a confession here: I always see people speaking lofty about Odd Taxi and Hyouka, but I didn’t actually like these two anime all that much… I’m seemingly part of a small minority however.

      I’m at least happy to see Monster, Apothecary Diaries and Summertime Rendering make it into the top 10 at the rankings of 3rd, 4th and 6th respectively.

      Shadows House making the list is also a nice suprise! Would’ve liked for Gosick, Astra Lost in Space and Vanitas no Karte to do a little better too.

      Shadows house is underrated masterpiece , its amazing mystery anime with phenomenal world building and the mystery slowly uncovering itself in amazing way

    9. octopathfinder on

      Kubikiri Cycle at 37 is disappointing. It should’ve at least made the top 25.

    10. grimjowjagurjack on

      Even though i don’t agree with the rankings but most of these shows on here are really good

    11. Sharebear42019 on

      Odd taxi winning is definitely surprising. I enjoyed it but wouldn’t put it above things like monster, steins gate and baccano among others. Hyouka at 2 is wild

    12. kaori_cicak990 on

      No In:spectre? Damm its one of my favourite mysteries series because the unique way how to handdle the mystery

    13. Summertime rendering is higher than Re:Zero, Higurashi and Steins;Gate… Well, damn.

      I guess animation and action is important for most people

    14. Steins Gate’s points don’t match its ranking. Don’t know if that means the points are off or the ranking is off though.

    15. Shadows house finally gets the recognition it deserves. It is a great anime. Too bad it was never advertised properly so most people never even heard of it.

    16. Watch shinsekai yori please, I just rewatched it recently and it’s still such an amazing show. Heck I think I grew even more love for it rewatching it as an adult, the amount of subtle storytelling you can pick up as the story unravel the secret behind this enchanting yet mysterious society our main cast lives in is just amazing.

      It’s actually pretty similar with heavenly delusion in a lot of ways, with the exception that you got to see the conclusion of the story in one season.

    17. MonsterKiller112 on

      Monster and Monogatari Series are deserved. AOT should be higher in the list. The mystery of eren’s basement is one of the most iconic things in anime.

    18. I know this sub loves Hyouka and it’s a fav of mine too but if someone asks me for a mystery anime recommendation, it’s not an anime I’d be suggesting.

    19. The11Pirates on

      I wish the entirety of detective conan was more readily available so a wider audience could give it a chance. Anyone know where you can watch ALL of the episodes in one place?

    20. Odd Taxi’s been on my PTW list since forever. This list might be the last push I need to finally check it out lol

    21. 5867898duncan on

      I’m surprised that detective Conan, the detective anime, is not even in the top 5. It’s got 1000+ episodes for a reason.

    22. noobucantbeat on

      Yooo from a new world is in the list??!!! One of my favorite anime’s ever but I hardly see/hear people talk about it. Has it always been popular or is it just recently starting to get popular?
