Don't be sad that a show that has ended, be happy of the journey you have experienced watching it.

Another year, another quarantine. BUT WITH MUCH MORE ANIME. Thank you anime for making it so much more bearable.

NummyNummers

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.

I will be honest , I didn't expected much from this year's anime shows, I don't have words to express , some animes had a good ending ,some had a wholesome one and other's were just perfect, I can't wait for the new one's to come and I don't want to forget what had gone.

2021 might have been the most hectic year but in my opinion was the best year for me bcz of all the anime releases with genres ranging from Romance(kome san) to Tragedy(AOT), isekai, horror(Mieruko-chan) and much more.

Tenma_Yato

Anime is an integral part of my life, it's like I'm addicted to it and it is what keeps me sane these days. I can't go even a day without watching at least 1 ep of an anime. You could say that anime has saved me and it is saving many more people every day. I'm thankful to Japan.

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.

A great year for anime released, but a sad one because of all the legends that passed away. Here's in remembrance of all those legends, May their souls rest in peace.

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!

EX-ARM is a masterpiece,Dogeza de Tanondemita is the most wholesome show of the season and the most consistent show is undoubtedly " B :The Beginning Succession Jokes aside this years was better than the last one(at least in terms of anime ) best shows were SNK and BLUE PERIOD

A very important quote to me is: “An important thing to remember is, just because a person has problems communicating, doesn't mean that person doesn't want to communicate with others,” hearing this at the onset of each episode made me feel very happy!

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 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.
