mainstream ? you mean most hyped anime yes ?
and also out of all anime that you listed up there Akame Ga kill and One Punch Man actually fail in sales.. recently One Punch Man got stomped really hard by Owarimongatari in Blue ray sales,

and in 2016 there is way to much promising anime

Jojo Part 4 Diamond Is not Unbreakable
D Gray Man Sequel
My Hero Academy
Ace Attorney
Shingeki No kyojin season 2
Nanatsui Taizai 2016 ( no confirmation about it being season 2 or a reboot )
Relife
Berserk
Rewrite
Fate Stay Night Heavens Feel
Koe No Katachi Movie
Kimi No Na Wa (Makoto Shinkai new movie)

this year is nothing like 2015.. its going to be hard to guess it.

You forgot Yugioh and Ajin

SnK 2 will most likely be the most popular.

Monogatari series' sales are generally really good in Japan, though still between the two Owarimonogatari definitely deserved to be above OPM anyway.
SAO had decent sales but still wasn't on top either.

yeah..but SAO made it to the yearly top 10 sales.. outselling the likes of Mahouka who is supposed to be the anime of the year back then.

If OPM is 2015's mainstream anime, then it's taking a step down. Hell, the series was only meant to be taken as a joke/light-hearted but as soon as it hits the West you've got people treating it as serious, high quality piece. :|

What can anyone say but, "'murica"?

What a dumb post.

Boku No Hero Academia most likely or AoT S2. I'm looking forward to the former and hopefully Bones handles it nicely.
