Those options does not make sense. This is why I do not like such "awards". Opinion of people vary too much.

This year has truly been incredible, but the high point for me were definitely the romance and action anime that released. They were absolutely amazing! Honestly, I can't wait to see what gems the new year brings in this genre too.

In a year where nothing I did seem to work in favour of me and on the brink of falling into the hands of depression once more, these beautiful and awe-inspiring work of art came rushing to my aid-- dragging me out of the mud, now I feel like I could conquer the world. Thank you!

The year 2023 was rich in new anime releases, new seasons for anime we didn't expect, I personally, and the anime community too were very surprised by the quality of some anime, the year 2024 will surely be full of surprises like the one we saw the year before!
