You know how certain blogs tend to come up with a gazillion different variations on a list with the “Most Shocking Deaths in TV History” just so they can keep reminding you how outrageous the Red Wedding scene in Game of Thrones was?

It’s the end of yet another anime season, so amidst all the final impressions, we also try to choose our favourite anime theme songs of the season.
