  • It's so interesting to see so many different anime that brought different people together and share feelings and thoughts with one another. The winners of the votes are obviously the ones that have resonated a lot with peoples' hearts.

    SonofJane

  • Lots of Interesting Animes were published in the year of 2023. I also felt that some of the options were equally good that it was hard to choose. Overall the season of 2023 had quite a major release of anime. It also had a few server break kind of moments for some ongoing anime.
