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.













































Happy new year 2023 can’t wait for 2024 animes

This is not just a great year for anime watchers who got to enjoy fabulous shows. This year has been a huge step for the conditions of animators and all those who work hard to make these masterpieces. Thank you for this amazing year!

Watching Anime gives me life lessons I never knew I needed, the bonus is I watch new a different characters go through things and come out better in the end. There’s always something new and different it’s exciting to see what will come out next.

jjk season 2 was the most diabolical anime the sheer level of destruction, violence, killing of the main cast, and most of all the level of disrespect some of the character choose to do.
