  • Well, there are many extraordinary anime in 2023. But for me personally there are 2 that are the most memorable, sousou no frieren and maomao of course. I didn't expect to like it Even though I hate the historical genre and Frieren is really an extraordinary isekai anime

  • 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.
