			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In looking back, this year has been filled with some awesome anime series.  Some series have been subtle, and tell a rich story without overuse of action or visuals. Some anime have been in-your-face action with high-end visuals and sound.  Some anime have even managed to combine the two to create something worthy of the title, &#8220;<strong>Best</strong>&#8220;.</p>
<p>Then there&#8217;s the anime which sucked so hard, they created a black hole in the anime universe, which even the most fantastic anime could never hope to fill.</p>
<p><strong>I have a few anime I would like to nominate as &#8220;Best&#8221; for 2007:</strong></p>
<p><img src='http://theanimeblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/12/basilisk3.gif' alt='basilisk' class="alignright fancy" /></p>

<p><strong>For the &#8220;Worst&#8221; anime of 2007:</strong><br />
<img src='http://theanimeblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/12/trinityblood.gif' alt='Trinity Blood Art2' class="alignright fancy" /></p>
<ul>
<li><strong><a href="http://theanimeblog.com/2007/10/10/anime-review-glass-fleet-volume-one/">Glass Fleet, Volume One</a></strong>: Worst Character Designs and Worst Story</li>

<li><strong><a href="http://theanimeblog.com/2007/06/19/trinity-blood-review/">Trinity Blood</a></strong>: Worst Waste of Animation and Time</li>
</ul>
<p>I haven&#8217;t read enough manga this year to be informed enough to say which is &#8220;Best&#8221;, but if I had to choose from among the manga I <em>have</em> read in 2007, it would be:</p>
<p><strong>Best Manga:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li><strong><a href="http://theanimeblog.com/2007/11/06/manga-review-es-volume-one/">The first four volumes of E&#8217;S</a></strong>: Best Line Work, Best Story, Best Panel Usage</li>
<li><strong><a href="http://theanimeblog.com/2007/08/01/gon-manga-review/">Gon</a></strong>: Best Use of the Manga Medium</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Worst Manga:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li><strong><a href="http://theanimeblog.com/2007/11/27/manga-review-my-dearest-devil-princess-volume-one/">My Dearest Devil Princess</a></strong>: Worst Story</li>
</ul>
<p>Best and Worst is all relative and <em>my</em> choices for Best and Worst probably won&#8217;t coincide with anybody else&#8217;s.  Since we have a nifty comment board in which to air opinions, let&#8217;s hear a few of <strong>everyone&#8217;s personal choices for Best and Worst Anime of 2007</strong>!</p>
