    Tuwwster

  • I should watch more anime.

    ILMTYD

  • Komi-san the most overrated anime ever. Manga might be good but the anime just not it chief. Fight me. Ogiwara Sayu best girl! Horimiya and Higehiro best animes of 2021 hands down.

  • There is no greater happiness and peace than sitting on the couch with a cup of tea and watching this year's anime with your loved ones, creating memes, even crying sometimes but also admiring, learning and being enchanted ...

    _swh_

  • This year was so lovable! Adorable and funny characters, relatable scenes, cool fights, cute couples-- what more could you want!!

  • anime is a retreat from a retreat as in it is another version of tv and some look at tv as a retreat and anime fits thats because anything is possible as long as one can draw it

  • 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!

  • 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

    Karrem

  • most of these characters are quite unique and from my POV their backstory is what makes them who the are and it's interesting seeing different animes having their characters have to go through difficult and happy moments in way it shows how they can change their personality

  • 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.

    K4B00M3R

  • There'll be always a moment of peace, to spend time just to watch anime alone. Maybe reading a manga or/and light novels, if people or an individual really want to immerse themselves further more than just anime alone. And of course, without the "noises" from the social media.
