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.













































"We cast our votes like petals in the wind, choosing the animes that danced in the colors of our hearts. In this ballot, every choice was a stroke that painted the canvas of our shared passion."

So hard pick just one :'''(

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.

This year is my second year on anime watching and I still have fun. The point is this year was balanced enough for me to continue watching anime, especially on action and comedy. Also the comedy's of this year made me feel relaxed enough while I was stressed. New year..
