What is the MAL Yearbook?
MAL Yearbook is a new annual project where MyAnimeList members can reflect on the past year of anime and share what they enjoyed most. Using categories selected from the community and winners decided by you, we will create a special digital MAL Yearbook that we can enjoy in future years. Leave us your 2021 yearbook comment and vote for the nominations you think best fit those category titles.



























Wonder Egg Priority and Death Parade need more content so I can prove to my boyfriend that they're the best. Please and thank you.

The year was full of smiles and laughs (and some sad) feelings with all the shows that aired. I really enjoyed watching so many shows that made me smile.

This year's anime have been hype! From action anime like Attack on Titan to romance like Horimiya or sport animes like Sk8 and isekai like Mushouku Tensei. Even the chill comedic anime like Dragon Maid S or Jahy Sama. All of them make me sit at the edge of my seat! Thank You!

This year I hope the animes are just as good as last year's, and I hope I can continue to use Myanimelist. To keep track of each of them, they are the best, keep it up.

#2021 The Anime Year for generations to come, had everything from Attack on Titan to Ex Arm, from Komi san to To your Eternity. Glad I watched so many shows this year, but at the same time sad that I skipped so many gems( will definitely watch them).
Ironaditya
I hope I have more free time to finish "plan to watch" the anime 2021.

Mushouku Tensei is the real anime of the year

Remember that time when you almost got eaten by a giant spider or that other time you stepped on a magical portal and the whole class got teleported to another world? Fun times. Keep in touch...NOT! Class of 2021-We don't suck. Byeee!
Dragynfaerie
I cant believe that we lived in an era the we got to see EX ARM. What a time to be alive!
Jenga
I really appreciate the idea of putting up a lot of the obscure shows that came out in the categories unlike most of the anime based award shows held recently, it really goes to show that the nominees were being selected based on the genuine enjoyment they offered and that's it.

Some characters are swords made to defend, and some shields made to attack. But when the time comes they can finally do what they were made for. Attack or defend.

This anime year was incredible but I hope next year we will look at this one and go: "man that was a bad year for anime compared to this".
BunicuMarin
Can't wait for another awesome year watching anime!

2021, another chapter completed! ? If there's one thing we Anime fans can all agree on; it's the fact that 2021 was one of the best years in the History of the animanga industry. True, the world has never understood our "taste~", but now more than ever can we be proud! To 2022!

this year will be excitement to anime watcher and manga reader just like me.

I must say that there are couple of good anime this year, but the most anime I liked this year are not in most of the selection. Which I understand, not everyone has the same taste. The best anime that I enjoyed in the year of 2021 is Horimiya because I read the manga which enjoy

2021 was the year I got into anime and I'm glad I became an anime fan at the perfect year where there were a lot of banger shows each season. It feels really good to be an anime fan and I will be looking forward to what 2022 has in store for us.

If you'll please excuse me, I still have 10,000 episodes across 120 titles to finish before next year's releases. I must prepare.
AtisutoMeru
The journey of a weeb is arduous to say the least. There will never be enough time or money courtesy of mangas, their usually banger adaptations and waifu merch. But even living in a car with said waifu merch, its worth it. To many more years of anime and manga! Cheers!

Another great year of Anime Ig
