Thanks to MAL staff and fellow MAL users for making 2021 great! May your futures be as bright as your anime-watching rooms should be. May your hearts be as warm as the fabled MAL hoodie might be. May season 2022 of our era be as wonderful as we'd like it to be!

"Ex-Arm the best anime."

2021 was my first year with MAL. And all these great anime made it so much more memorable. I hope all other years are as great as this. Also best romance show of this year were horimiya and tonikawa.

2021 was a banger! Here's to 2022 go above and beyond

jujubeefrwin

There are many animes that I have not seen in this list HAHAHA. But of the few that I saw, I feel that I answered them with great sincerity. So I look forward to the results!

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.

Since this is the first ever MAL yearbook, So "whatever happens , happens". Glad to be a part of it, along with so many others. Finally "10 billion points" to the person who might publish this comment in the yearbook.

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 -️

NotMito11

This year not only gave me fantastic shows to view but it also gave me an addiction to seasonals. I'm still trying to figure out if that was a good thing.

Kielbaska

2021's Year of Anime is very much akin to 2021 as a whole. It gave us moments of joy, of excitement and sometimes even moved us to tears! But most notably it had a lot of garbage that you could only really laugh about.

@Dscry

Bojji is the best character of this year, also Tooru has a special mention. LARGA VIDA A GODA.

Crunchyroll anime awards is a joke, sorry but I had to say it.

Cofi_

Its my 1st time but i loved the anime of this year

Red543322

life is like watching an anime, sometimes you cry, sometimes you laugh, but most importantly you’re enjoying it

I am small. I have no money. Yet I’ll still find the money for manga.

There is no shame in being weak, but staying weak is.

Better than crunchy roll award winners probably hopefully maybe

I have not seen more than half of the anime in this list. But oh well. Good luck and have fun in your future life and always remember as what you've seen and experienced will always disappear.

When somebody ask me ''why is Fairy Tail your favorite anime" i only have one answer ''because it makes me forget that i don't have anybody who wants to real be with me. And Fairy Tail is about friendship and i want what they have ''

This year was better than last

Hello mom! I'll still watch anime when I'll be at my 50s...?

Tokyo Revengers was the best of the year

VictorVS

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.

Aaltag

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.

Brottoy

Seasons are great, if you keep track of it.

ItsEmina

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

Raizu_Ji

This year was amazing !

BabySaim

The year which I could spend most for anime . I'm blessed yo watch many great ones. Anime Daisuki

Anime is laifu cuz waifu is waifu.

Don't be shy or feel bad about enjoying anime. Don't let others judge the things you enjoy. You be you, and enjoy what you enjoy. Innocent or degenerate, you'll still be happy as an otaku, if you love being an otaku.

I hope the one who deserves it wins.
