    Today is the first day of Round 2, so make sure your voice is heard voting here and across all of our social media accounts.

    Historically, turnout in our polls dropped off quickly after Round 1 on Fedi. Let's change that this year. Let's make this the year our Fediverse voters come out in force to show them there's a bunch of anime fans here ready to argue about which series they like better!

    Today is the final day of Round 1 of our annual AniMarch Madness. Today's polls are going up early because someone (our Masto admin, @mdmrn) has some kind of work meeting to get to this morning. Who does that?

    Well, have you been enjoying the tournament this week because more polls are incoming!

    Please be sure to check the website and all of our social accounts today to make your voice heard. All votes are compiled to determine which series move on.
