Year 2021 is a very memorable year for me for it's the first time that I've watched anime of the certain season. I've watched almost all anime of 2021 and even participated in FAL and for me, it's the year that I've enjoyed watching anime more than ever before!

Mhar-sama

I have watched so many animes with different storyline and still can't decide which one is my favourite. Hat's off to the people who work hard making wonderful animes. Love from India -️

Mushoku Tensei is anime of the year. If Arcane was an anime, then Mushoku Tensei and Arcane is anime of the year.

Anime has been a nice way out of real life for me the past couple of years. It brings so much emotion where nothing else could!

Good year for anime.

CHEZARE

Made many long reviews last year.

short_reviews

With so many anime that, instead of pandering to trendy stuff, were more like passion projects, 2021 made me feel "Anime is getting good again". Oddtaxi, Heion Sedai no Idaten-tachi, Sonny Boy and Heike Monogatari made the year much more enjoyable.

Aetherdragon18

most of these characters are quite unique and from my POV their backstory is what makes them who the are and it's interesting seeing different animes having their characters have to go through difficult and happy moments in way it shows how they can change their personality

RedBell02

Thank you to everyone for such a great year!

It's been one hell of a year, though I can't really remember what happend since my memory sucks. It seems like sequels and isekai are the most prominent anime this year, but I'm not complaining, since I'm a sucker for fantasy anime. I just hope 2022 will be an even better year.

Another great year of anime. For years to come hopefully we can look back and appreciate these new works.

The laws of space and time dictate that in 24 hours you can only physically watch 60 episodes of anime. That didn't stop me from completing One Piece in 3 days.
