  • Anime is a mistake, and continues to be a mistake in 2024.

    Arachnophobic

  • 2024 brings a variety of amazing anime! BokuYaba S2 warms the heart, Girls Band Cry captivates with its musical drama, and Ao no Hako touches with its romance and struggles. Adaptations & new seasons spoil fans. Slice of life & romance shine brightly, a must-watch!

    AlienZack

  • personally 2024 was one of the best years as far as anime releases are concerned, they were all very enjoyable with very funny characters that you can't help but love, lots of them made me feel strong emotions--crying over sad scenes and others of happiness

  • EAT, SLEEP, WATCH ANIME

    mylife-anime

  • I thought I watched a lot, if not most anime last year, but it turns out there are categories from which I don't recognize a single anime from - i think that goes to show just how many anime are coming out these days.

    Decty

  • I am tired.

    AbtheWiZard

  • Solo leveling was the best ending of 2024, and is now the best start of 2025. In the face of these difficult times our world is facing. Anime and Manga are the one thing that never betray you. No matter your race, gender, religion or where you live on this planet.

  • This year was absolutely one of the best. With so many genre and unique stories, a lot of anime captivated our hearts. Fantasy genre once again reached a big heights with shows like Frieren. I'd love to see more horror and supernatural plots in future anime. 🎃🎃

    BurntTripe

  • It's a little insane to me just how many good anime have come out this past year. Of course there have always been good ones, but there just seems to be a massive influx in the amount of shows that have hooked me on the first season that I am now waiting on for the second one.

    RaijinCN

  • 2024 was a banger year with some peaks not seen in a while. Though, it did decline slowly as the seasons passed there was always that one show. 2025 has a lot to do to keep up the momentum of some shows though lets all have a wonderful year or anime moving forward!!!!!
