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.
I never would've imagined that I'd be here right now. However I also don't really go anywhere so where else would I be? Here's to another great year of anime and fun!

I feel like 2023 was a turnover for anime so many new anime so many new fans new experiences and all over it was the best year with all these good animes and I hope 2024 would be even more exciting with all new animes

Oh Shall Fen Shall I never thought my heart would almost explode from how flustered you made me. High Priest Heika Demint you are one of the ones that made me question myself severely and I still do not know how I feel about you to this very day.

So many anime from 2023 made me want to play video games even more - is it a sabotage?

Watch anime to escape reality until it becomes reality .

It was a very nice year to come back after 2 and half years of being away from anime.

Good Year For Anime! Heres to 2024!
realMewphy
Don't we have a male lead protagonist of the year? Or antagonist of the year? As well as female lead? Buts that okay, it's already the last day that I vote, thanks for the opportunity!!!

Ichikawa and yamada from (boku no kokoro yabai yatsu) should have been in the best couple option 😭

Voting for this yearbook sucks. Jujitsu Kaisen would literally win like all of these categories and the only thing it has his Mahito to vote for. Also where is my Vinland Saga representation? The two best animes of this year and next to nothing.

What are these nominations????
