    Ceneu

  • Hope you had a good Year!

  • Many captivating animes appeared this year. And many votes that were too hard to distinguish between whos the most fitting for the vote. But with the amount of rediculous titles i can say this year deserves the corniest 4 seasons of anime of all time. And i enjoyed it

    eequaled

  • i love watching anime lol ahahahg

  • To another year of anime

    Twintail_Daemon

  • We live in one of 2 possible parallel universes. In one of them, we will have No Game No Life season 2, and in the other, we will have Kaminaki Sekai season 2. I'll refrain myself and not divulge which one I would prefer.

  • A lot of Isekai came out and I enjoyed 99% of them. Most of the anime had comedy and was never boring. One or two series on psychology was enough to make things interesting.

    JesseRaiden

  • Me saying to anime,"Even if I lose this feeling, I'm sure I'll just fall in love with you all over again." "No matter which love line, what time, or where I am. I will always love you. I'll say it one more time. I LOVE YOU."

    Pandaman10

  • The year 2023 had the least number of trash shows! I was bombarded with unexpected sequels but watched them all. So I can say it with confidence that, 2023 was an ultimate year for animes!

    andthatshowitwas

  • Not getting accepted into college during the first term did my anime list such a favor and it shows. :) I really enjoyed SO many animes this year.. Looking forward to another one. Thank you, anime world. ♡♡♡ P.S: I got accepted into college this term lol. :D
