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.
I don't know who the heck john is, I dont know what he wants. All I know that he must be protected.

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.

2021 for anime was like a lottery. You either got a great season with banger animes and another season where you were empty-handed.

Mushoku Tensei was the gold, crunchyroll prolly had the worst anime of the year awards this year but its not gonna stop me from loving Mushoku Tensei.

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.

This is so much better than crunchyroll awards where the judges are the ones whose votes really matter. Loving all the events MAL has been doing recently and can't wait to see MAL grow even more. (thanks for the badges, keep giving us more~)

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.

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.

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

I think this year has been an amazing year for anime. It's been a long while since we've had a year where everyone can find something to watch, where every season has something that someone might be into. I'm really excited to see where we can go from here!
strydderXD
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.

These are some great categories, it was hard to choose! I'm looking forward to see the winners!

Anyone has a choice/option to choose but that doesn't mean that you will pick any of them because they look good in our eye's or they have a advantage among all choices/options the one that we must choose was where our hearts will be happy.

at first, I was scared to become an anime fan. I didn't want to be called "uwu anime sussy baka". ... this year I've completed my 100th series and discovered more about myself > because of Japanese animations of course
