Been a nice year
The most unforgettable anime is of course AoT (Shingeki no kyojin)
But there have been many more.

Many strong releases with diverse and wonderful shows, perfectly suited for entertaining us while we were staying at home :)

Vivy, ODDTAXI, 86, Mushoku Tensei, Ranking of Kings, and Link Click all in the same year. This was by far the greatest year in anime history, with so many masterpiece shows. (also watch Shadows House, it was very underrated)

Ex-Arm is Hilarious
Non Non Biyori Nonstop is Cute
Isekai Anime are overused and needs to reduce
Seriously stop there's too much isekai anime

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

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

Thank you 2021 anime. Some is good, some is bad, but I like anime in this year. My most favourite anime is Fruits Basket Final SS. This is one of memorable summary that I ever seen. I also reccommend Sonny Boy and Kageki Shoujo in this year. Sarasa and Honda, Tooru Best Girl 2021

This year has been amazing and packed but my favourite anime of this year was "Tokyo Revengers", The theme of changing the present by going into the past and the fact that all this was done by a delinquent is just fascinating and Baji's passing made it better and more tragic.

I believed that Eastern animation could offer the pinnacle of direction, story-telling, and pure Sakuga art. I believed that it was misunderstood like A Silent Voice. Under-appreciated like Grave of the Fireflies.
Then I watched Ex-Arm and now I don’t know what to think at all.
Paperphoenix1907
2021 was my first year with MAL. And all these great anime made it so much more memorable. I hope all other years are as great as this.
Also best romance show of this year were horimiya and tonikawa.

2021 might have been the most hectic year but in my opinion was the best year for me bcz of all the anime releases with genres ranging from Romance(kome san) to Tragedy(AOT), isekai, horror(Mieruko-chan) and much more.

The journey of a weeb is arduous to say the least. There will never be enough time or money courtesy of mangas, their usually banger adaptations and waifu merch. But even living in a car with said waifu merch, its worth it. To many more years of anime and manga! Cheers!
