The best anime of 2021 so far?
| A few days ago I opened a thread "Name 5 anime made in 2021 that are worth watching". From the responses given in that thread, I've compiled most of the common responses into one big list. Please choose the show you consider the best this year. My pick is Hataraku Saibou Black. Edit: Whoever chooses the “other” option, please indicate what anime it is that you chose specifically |

| I'd say that "Sk8 The Infinity" is the best thing this year, and the best thing in that poll. |
 |
| i haven't seen many 2021 anime, but i really enjoy uramichi oniisan so far. |
| Its definitely Non Non Biyori for me. |
 |

| I don't get it. Why only 1 vote for To your eternity?(I voted for it btw) it was the most hyped show of Spring. |
 Scordolo's Recent Reviews To your eternity Vanitas no Karte |
| Fruits Basket S3 or Yuru Camp S2. For new I'd say 86 or Mushoku Tensei. |

| Its Link Click for me that anime was a masterpiece next is Yuru Camp Season 2 which is also a masterpiece. Vivy and 86 are also fantastic. |
Zean_9435 said: Ooo I see anyway Sorry and you should definitely watch Link Click don't ignore it just because it's made in China. You assumed here. In general I watch doghua just Link Click is a bit too melodramatic for my taste so I dropped it after one episode. Right now I am more into silly stuff like Battle Through the Heavens and Rescue Eternal Desert. ...yeah, the third season of Mo Dao Zu Shi recently started too, it's pretty great till now. Tho none of those is anime. |

| Only one person commented Odd Taxi. WHAT IS THIS. |

| JJK fans are so toxic they vote for their anime knowing it came out in 2020. |
 |
| Congrats AoT for not winning the poll despite being rated higher and 10x more popular than Odd Taxi. |
| Most anime I've watched in 2021 are quite interesting, glad that only a few of them hv bad quality But oh dear where's uma musume pretty derby season 2 |
| "Diving deep in the ocean of ACGL" |
| In my opinion, it's easily Super Cub so far. |
 |
| Ohh, you included Gintama: The Final, nice. That's my vote. As for shows, Fruits Basket: The Final for sequels and Odd Taxi for new anime. Both amazing shows. |
 |
| If I had to choose out of that list as well as everything else I've seen which would fall under the "Other" choice as it isn't included on that polling list (Hataraku Saibou!!, Tenchi Souzou Design-bu, The World Ends With You - The Animation, Godzilla: Singular Point, Mars Red, Higurashi Sotsu, Higehiro, Yakunara Mug Cup mo, Re-Main, Night Head 2041, and Drug Store in Another World: The Slow Life of a Cheat Pharmacist),..... I would choose Fruits Basket 2019 reboot's third season because it is the only one I gave a rating as high as an 8 to, and the series as a whole is the only one I would say qualifies as 8-tier or above (excluding Higurashi, of which the current seasons are very divorced in story, style, and substance from the earlier, original seasons and function more as a sequel than a continuation) compared to everything else I have completed watching or am watching currently (the latter of which I don't rate, but I can have a tentative prediction in my head of what type of rating it might fetch later). Even though I actually preferred the second season of the Fruits Basket 2019 reboot to the third for several reasons. |

| Gintama the final would be my personal favorite |
 ManWild |
| The new Gundam movie. And Gintama Final too probably even though I didn't watch it. Gintama is goated. |
| Unlike last year, where I didn’t absolutely LOVE any new anime, this year is a very simple choice for me. It’s Link Click. I can guarantee I won’t see anything better this year. |

| I wanna see those other anime that got 9 votes. |
  |
| Yuru camp season 2, as if there ever was any competition |
 |
| I guess there won't be any more changes to the rankings, so the final top 5 is: 1. Odd Taxi 2. Attack on Titan Final Season 3. Fruits Basket: The final 4. Gintama: The final 5. Link Click I guess these scores just show that scores on MAL are a pretty accurate depiction of what people think. |
| Odd Taxi, Attack on Titan S4P1, Vivy and Beastars S2 have been my favourites of the year so far. |
PostCollegeSucks said: KazusTearFetish said: Fruits Basket the Final for me, though if we're talking originals only then Odd Taxi. Sonny Boy is more appealing personally but I need to see the ending first. Huh? I'm betting 70% of the people who voted Odd Taxi were dudes. Also, Mob Psycho 100 has almost zero relevant female characters The thing that attracts feminists into an anime is if the entire female cast is hideous, regardless of their relevance. They view attractive women as "unrealistic", always complain about their existence, and try to replace them with hideous women wherever and whenever possible. Well, that’s quite a bizarre take I should say |
| link click maybe isnt an "anime", but its simply one of the best shows of 2021. you will miss a lot if you haven't watched it. |
Itsuki >  |
| Redo of Healer. And it's not even close lmao. You didn't even include it man wtf |
