If this year has taught me anything, it's that misery loves company. The perfect companion when you're miserable is a decent anime to take your mind off of what's bothering you...

Listen, Simon. Never forget. Just believe in yourself. Not in the Simon that I believe in; not in the Kamina that you believe in. Have faith in the Simon who believes in you.

What a wonderful year, lots of new anime and great sequels. Lots of opening and ending songs and theme songs that are catchy and fun to play. What an unforgettable year, hopefully the following years will always be like this. ~Xte

For Karaoke Ultra-Hard Mode, my vote goes to:
"Another World" - Isekai Suicide Squad OP
I've tried to sing it many times but always failed!
I just find the part she hits those really high notes impossible to get right.
If someone manages to sing it, please tell me how you did it.

The best anime of 2024 was Kusuriya no Hitorigoto and... where is it in the voting? I'm frustrated by that. Otherwise, the way they made the categories was very funny. Congratulations!!!

Hope the anime fandom will one day learn to appreciate good series with quality writing instead of watching repetitive otaku stuff every time. Also, I hope they stop saying "peak" for every freaking anime.

From the most cozy romance comedies to the intense heart racing action, and everything in between 2024 has been an incredible year for anime enjoyers across the globe. I was grateful to have the return of my favourite anime in a new season, Natsume Yuujinchou. Bring on 2025!

Blue Lock S2 deserved better than a power point adaptation.
Dandadan is good but it's not the second coming of Jesus that everyone makes it out to be (at least the first cour of S1)
Animators should be respected and paid more and they don't deserve the Mappa treatment.
