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.

Another great year for anime. We have Frieren and Pluto that make me cry so hard, Vinland Saga for its touching character development, Tengoku Daimakyou with mysterious world design, and Skip and Loafer that is really chilling.

Bye, 2023. You did good, I suppose, though I’m shocked that somehow the isekai well didn’t finally run dry again this year. Weird, because I could’ve sworn I saw all this year’s quirky smart boys travel to a faraway land three years ago. Who am I kidding, I still watch them too.
AssortedCheese
Let's all have a moment of silence for the best gaming (no, not another isekai) anime to come out in the last decade, SLF!
