  • So much trouble for animator in this year , to make us smile and cry

    Suryapratapsingh

  • A great year for Romance, Comedy and Slice of Life. There were many good ones beyond the popular ones. The OP and EDs were top-class. One of greatest years in indie anime history. Looking forward to 2024 to replicate the same. Ara~ ara~ sayonara~

  • This year has been a great time to be an anime fan, we had a lot of selections to watch and every season was enjoyable and had atleast one Anime I'd look back on.Yet the one Anime that stands above all for me will be Vinland Saga S2 and for romance it'd be the Dangers in my Heart

  • This year's roster was quite overwhelming, honestly, to me it felt as explosive as when anime became higher in demand over lockdown, even the less popular titles like Migi to Dali/Migi & Dali somehow were able to blend how I felt about anime this year, nearing perfection.

    TimipaFrank

  • The start of the year 2023 was very tragic for me, to be honest; I lost all hope but watching some of the anime like magical revolution, ningen fushin, saving 80000 in another world" gave me the motivation to try again and again, thanks to anime I was able to stand again in life

    RAGING-TYRANT

  • Skip to loafer best anime

    missnescau
