2021 was one my most favourite years both personally as well as in terms of quality Anime watched. My shows of the year were Tokyo Revengers, Aquatrope on white sand and To your eternity.
Ranga Sumukha
yeah, good year

This year is a pretty good year for anime. We've got some amazing new shows like Mushoku Tensei, Ousama Ranking, Odd Taxi & 86. But we also got some shit like Mid Hero season 6, Bronze End and Ex-Arm. This year was a fun rollercoaster and I'm hoping that 2022 will be even better.
