Sword Art Online survives the threat of Hyouka as they won by a slim margin of 18 votes to be 2012’s representative for Anime of the Year. Surprisingly though, there would be no Kirito (Sword Art Online) in the Man of the Decade after he got beaten by Houtarou Oreki (Hyouka) as the male representative of 2012. Asuna Yuuki meanwhile will be the female representative while the Chunibyo couple Yuuta and Rikka (Love, Chunibyo and Delusions!) will be the Couple-Ship Representative.
