MAL Yearbook 2021

Comments

  • This year's anime have been hype! From action anime like Attack on Titan to romance like Horimiya or sport animes like Sk8 and isekai like Mushouku Tensei. Even the chill comedic anime like Dragon Maid S or Jahy Sama. All of them make me sit at the edge of my seat! Thank You!

  • 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.
