#4 The Housemaid
That was
Something, alright
The ending was a real giggle fest, it was just the right amount of entertaining and silly
Massimo my beloved
Maybe I should read the book?

#3 The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes
This is the best entry in the Hunger Games series. Coriolanus is such a fascinating character and seeing him become the person we know from the original trilogy is a thrill ride. The final chapters especially, which I read with bated breath. Amazing read, 10/10

#2 Smiling Friends Season 3
Okay what the hell
Glep ep was amazing

For context: the book here is Japanese Fairy Tales by Yei Theodora Ozaki 💖 You can find it on Project Gutenberg!

One last post for this thread: I decided to make a tierlist of all the media from last year! The order within a tier isn't too important, so don't pay any mind to that
Here's to even more great media in 2026 🥳

#1 Silent Hill: The Short Message
What a way to begin the year
This game is uh
Quite terrible, not gonna lie. Starting with the controls, through the acting and story, to the protagonist herself, I didn't enjoy anything about this game
Okay, fair, Sakura Head has a nice design
And at least it's free

#86 Silent Hill f
What a way to end the year
Personally, I don't think it's as scary as SH2R, but it's still a pretty fantastic game. Maaaybe it could benefit from more variety in puzzles throughout different playthroughs. Still, the story and characters are incredible and worth every single minute

#85 Avatar: Fire and Ash
It's so shallow and rehashed-
Varang
The pacing is terrible, it rushes at a breakneck pace-
Varang
Jake keeps getting worse and worse with each movie-
Varang
It's just pretty CGI mess, there's very little good stuff in this movie-
SHUT UP MY INNER CYNIC, VARANG IS AWESOME

#84 A Court of Frost and Starlight
*sigh*
Lucien was done dirty once again. And as much as I don't like Tamlin, I couldn't stand the "heroes" purposefully tormenting him. I would also appreciate it if the supposed "Christmas special" didn't focus so much on war trauma. Talk about tonal whiplash

#83 Farewell, My Odin
Damn, what a bleak story. I don't even know what to say, it's not an easy read. It's kind of like if Berserk and Vinland Saga had a baby, so make of that what you will

#82 50 First Dates
Why, Rob Schneider, why?
Other than him, there really is something genuine and sweet in this movie, which I didn't expect from Adam Sandler of all people. Luckily there wasn't as much gross out humour as I thought there would be. I'm glad I watched that Schaffrillas ranking haha

#81 Metaphor: ReFantazio
Despite having a really difficult 15-ish first hours, I eventually managed to get into the game. I didn't think the story or characters were as incredible as people made them out to be but I enjoyed exploring Euchronia just fine
And then the FINAL BOSS HAPPENED, WTF WAS THAT

#80 Yoru-san no Itoshi no Bansan
I never knew how much I needed a manga about a vampire renting a room at a granny's house. That being said, I wish there were more volumes because there are many things left unexplored, which I really would love to see developed. One thing's certain: I'm hungry now

#79 Dlaczego nie!
GIRL
WHY ARE YOU MAD AT THE MALE LEAD
YOU WERE THE ONE TO ASSUME THINGS ABOUT HIM
AAAAAAA

#78 Hazbin Hotel Season 1
Honestly. What can I say that hasn't been said before? Note: TO ME the pacing is terrible, most songs are meh, the characters and their relationships are questionable, this show doesn't deserve the grand finale it has, but I love Sir Pentious with all my cynical heart

#77 The Holiday
Is it too early to watch Christmas movies? Yes. Will it stop me from watching them? Hell no, especially when they're this adorable. Seriously, it's so cute, with lovable characters and Hans Zimmer's music is beautiful as always and-
John Krasinski? What are you doing here?

#76 Oshi no Ko (manga)
NO
NO NO NO
NOOOOOOOOOO
YOU WERE DOING SO WELL
WHYYYYYYYYY
