  • Thanks everyone in MAL for your hard work as usual :) But honestly the list was lacking alot, I mean no Bleach, Mushuku Tensei mentions there, not even in OP/ED!!! . It is really fun to vote for annual book every year but I hope it will be better and more fair next year Regards

  • Ermm Actually ☝🤓 skibidi toliet is the best anime of 2023 no questions asked. The dynamic between the war between the toliet bowl people and camera people was enaging, as they adapted to each others' strategies. The OP:"skibidi dop dop dop yes yes" is the most catchy tunes🚽📷
