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.
Always Remember what Dr Ligma had said, "New year gives your 365 chances to make your life better". Don't ask me who Dr Ligma is.

It's a good year, at least for me and the Anime community.

Obey only your DUITY as DHARMA says, not hope in good or bad results, because good works gives good results and bad works gives bad results.😊

The world may be going down the drain but anime is at least pretty good.

Iden Teitei Meltdown (Onimai OP) should have been nominated for the "wake up the neighbors" or "infinite loop" category.

It was a mixed year to say the least most of the engaging Anime were all sequels hence the mixed feelings.

It was one hell of a year. Some anime was so heartwarming and some was so cool and also some good romcom to I love the 2023 anime year. And I hope 2024 will be better than this.

What a fantastic year for new anime, I found multiple new favorites in this batch of seasonals! The only thing that could make 2024 a better anime year is more good Shoujo adaptations :')

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

2023 es probablemente el año en el que termine mas anime y vi cosas que no esperaba aventurarme. Haré que 2024 sea el año que mas animes haya terminado.

One of the weirdest nominations I‘ve ever seen but I‘m glad that a lot of series get some representation. Protect Akane Nishimura with all costs!! (=´∀`)

The 2023 anime season was my last before taking a big step towards adulthood, going to college. And I can say it was a memorable one, I watched a lot of anime. Hopefully life wont become too hard and I will get to watch my favorite anime with a smile on my face. Also ty MAL staff

imo the selection of nominees in the MAL Yearbook is so much better than the nominations of a certain Anime Awards show (you know which one). Here I don't find myself asking all the time; why wasn't that anime nominated for this category? Also love the fun category titles more :D
