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.
To be completely honest these choices weren’t the best but jujutsu Kaizen was fire

Years come and go but this year was unique and special (you are my specialz) especially so for the whole anime community as a whole. Many new weebs, veterans were born. At the end of the day whole community and all the anime we watched made our year better. Note: Touch grass tooo

I definitely changed after this year. Before, I always engaged with meaningless arguments online with people who don't share the same anime taste as mine, but this year I'm a different person. Thanks to Vinland Saga S2, I forget and forgive. I have no enemies.

2023 was the best year for any anime fans. We got tramautized by anime like jujutsu kaisen and at the same time felt wholesome watching ‘The girl I like forgot her glasses.'
