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.
We live, we love, we MAL.

Obviously the best year I had, thanks to the anime world. It's my ikigai, my soul purpose to enjoy lie and I want to die watching anime. It's the only reason I give my best to my rest of the works(exercise, writing, skill learning, shigoto,...). Thanks to ANIME WORLD.

You either die a hater, or live long enough to start watching anime

Daughter, wife, work, studies... And I'm still bringing some good anime with me this year. I hope you don't let go of our beloved otaku culture, even in the most difficult moments of life. Good year everyone.

The character to protect instantly had me running to Gakuto Yuzuki, he’s such a pure and innocent soul that barely smiled 🫂 The character who’s existence is chaos section, everyone causes so much of it it’s hard to choose.🧱 Bond for best pet!! ✨✨

2023 was the best year in term of both anime and movies, in comparison 2024 feels lackluster. Hope it gets better. AOT ended, jujutsu kaisen s3 ended, gojo died, nanami died, emma(toko revengers) died, ai hoshino died. goodluck to me for 2024.

unfortunately this year I couldn't watch all the anime I wanted, I was busy, but I became very fond of the fluffy romantic animes with extra-sweet couples.

This year's anime is a banger, many interesting new series and many good sequel series. I hope anime for 2024 will be even better whether it's a new series or a sequel to a series that has been released before

Akuma-kun was the best anime in 2023. Frieren has the 2nd Place and Pluto the 3rd.

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

Even though Crimson was only in 1 category, they would have won both Best Boy and Best Girl. Just like Gigguk once said, "Sometimes it takes a real man to be Best Girl."
