What is the MAL Yearbook?
MAL Yearbook is an annual project where MyAnimeList members can reflect on the past year of anime. Using categories selected from the community and winners decided by you, together we will create a special digital MAL Yearbook that we can enjoy in years to come.













































Jujutsu Kaisen should have been on here somewhere.

Wake up to reality! Nothing ever goes as planned in this accursed world. The longer you live, the more you realize that the only things that truly exists in this reality are merely Pain. Suffering and Futility.

What a BANGER year for anime 2023 was. It had 2 of my now all time favourite anime, Kusuriya no Hitorigotou and Sousou no Frieren.

The temptation to give up is a common one, and nobody is exempt. Failure isn't something many of us can handle gracefully. And even though we know it's a common human condition, we're somehow always surprised when it happens to us.

“They weren’t Goblins” from Goblin Slayer, said by Goblin Slayer. The year of sequel anime made it so difficult to watch anything new. Please lets hope 2024 doesn’t have this many sequels
