UQ Holder is only my 196th favorite anime, and that's only as the weaker half of a 2-part franchise, Negima + UQ Holder. So in a sense UQ Holder is only my 500th favorite anime or so. Even so, a promise is a promise, and I promised to not only watch but rewatch in full every series in my rankings.
Promises made, promises kept! I've now rewatched all of UQ Holder, including its three great oav's.
The main series wasn't very good, and was filler half the time, but oh well. The art, voice acting, and comedy was often top class. There was always something to enjoy even in the midst of the filler deviations. The important thing is that the task is finished, so I can move on to better shows. It wouldn't be fair to kick anyone out until everyone equally has passed the rewatchability test, so finishing off UQ Holder was an important step towards that momentous occasion.
It's unlikely that any series will be added or kicked out in 2019, since even the newcomer series will have to be watched twice before receiving a passing grade, so Negima remains safely nestled in my rankings for now.
As something that's proven itself able to be rewatched, it stands above most everything else I've watched, despite its flaws. That won't change even if it is eventually relegated to my runners-up list.
