• I've watched many anime in my life, many good, many bad. Many that were wrong to the source, and some that out shined the source. From the years of struggling to find anime, to now it is everywhere. I am glad ^w^.

• Mushoku Tensei is anime of the year. If Arcane was an anime, then Mushoku Tensei and Arcane is anime of the year.

• 2021's Year of Anime is very much akin to 2021 as a whole. It gave us moments of joy, of excitement and sometimes even moved us to tears! But most notably it had a lot of garbage that you could only really laugh about.

• 2021, another chapter completed! ? If there's one thing we Anime fans can all agree on; it's the fact that 2021 was one of the best years in the History of the animanga industry. True, the world has never understood our "taste~", but now more than ever can we be proud! To 2022!
