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.

2021 Best year for Anime, fact.

Anime characters got a yearbook before I did T_T

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！！

To be a part of a community that enjoys the medium of anime just like I do makes me happy. This platform has helped me look at different perspectives of a show, make friends, and know what is going on within the anime community. Last year was fun. Hope this year gets better.

2021 was a fascinating Year for anime, From Masterpiece that Odd Taxi offer to Ex-Arm that keeps the viewer give that always giving for better or for worse (Mostly Worse). Definitely gonna miss 2021 as The Most Busiest anime came for long time.

We may say it was a good anime year!

AnyTheFox

This year is a pretty good year for anime. We've got some amazing new shows like Mushoku Tensei, Ousama Ranking, Odd Taxi & 86. But we also got some shit like Mid Hero season 6, Bronze End and Ex-Arm. This year was a fun rollercoaster and I'm hoping that 2022 will be even better.
