2021 was a great year for anime. People have found themselves free with more time to be introduced to anime and with the added help of social media and anime content creators, anime itself has become mainstream and more socially welcomed. T'was a truely welcoming year for anime!!

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.

I hope my favourite anime and character will win
