2023 was a year that reminded us that no matter how much we old or change and evolve with all this conflict in the world no matter where you live or what kind problems you have anime is always there for you to help you forget all about it and get the courage to face one more day.

the queen died but honestly Naruto been through so much more. The hardships he’s faced aren’t even comparable to dying of old age. Until the queen has done what Naruto has done I don’t feel sympathy.

Vinland saga, I consider it as the best anime of 2023 including pluto, sousou no frieren etc. So far spring season was the best season for me at this point of view it was the best. Even the fall season was not that bad. So far pluto was the best one no argument.

2023 has showbiz, unknown worlds, a elfic journey, chaos in Shibuya, more isekai, the ascension of the Villainess theme and the more importantly: Lots and lots of bangers who make this year, one of the best years for anime in recent memory.
