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.



























School is temporary, swag is forever.

I laughed, I cried, I was upset, I was excited, I was nervous, I fell in love, I broke up, I thought, I screamed, I kept quiet, and I finally enjoyed it. And I made good memories for myself. I hope to go forward with anime like this every year and be satisfied and happy.-

I'm not really picky about anime, neither can I watch anime non stop and on a roll like most hardcore fans do. Nevertheless I'm blessed to be a part of the community and i love anime and that's all is what matters to me. ^_^

Don't criticize other anime because of your favorite anime. STAY HEALTHY AND KEEP WATCHING ANIME.

Anime was the most beautiful thing which I discovered in 2021.It truly changed my life in many different ways. Today I am able to think from a different point of view all thanks to the amazing characters. It made me laugh hysterically and at times it made me cry. Thankyou Anime.

This year 2021 was full of great surprises and good animes where you can take refuge and feel the serenity that they emanate, and experience unique sensations.

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.

Just enjoy what ever anime you want, respect each other preference and the thing that you need to always remember when watching is never judge a book by its cover and never underestimate them. Also not to forger thank you MAL for being best anime database ever! ありがとうございます!!

If you spend your 2021 without watching 86, then you have a one miserable year.

That's absurd, the perfect plan that I hatched using the collected demonite to control the company from both the front and behind the scenes to become a winner NEET across worlds...! But no...This can't be right, this is no way to die!

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!

I watched Legend of the Galactic Heroes last year a Show which for 3 days changed forever how I view Anime... and then I went back to the trash bin.

2021 was a great year for anime. People have found themselves free with more time to be introduced to anime and with the added help of social media and anime content creators, anime itself has become mainstream and more socially welcomed. T'was a truely welcoming year for anime!!

It be chaotic. It be wholesome. It be heart wrecking but it be a good year for anime.

Now looking back it was a great year for anime we got some very great tropes like that of an anime with just wholesomeness and normal life mixed with fantasy element without any action or drama in it and there were other great original stories like that of odd taxi and link click
