| 1. Anime. 2. Probably Seinen, then shounen 3. Kuudere or Yandere. 4. Probably 2010-2020. The first half of this decade was especially good, the second half is decent. 5. The rating system I would say. It helps me to pick the anime I like. 6. If we go by the proper philosophical definition then no. If you are talking about a logical analysis of the criticism than yes. The criticism has to be majorly logical and point out the flaws and good sides. 7. Nope. And probably never will. Kinda cringe imo. 8. They are good. You can trust em. 9. It is a bad thing. Japan is just not good at handling CGI. They do very good 2D animation so they should stick to that. This trend will probably ruin the medium for a lot of people. 10. ANILIST BY FAR. This site looks like it is a fossil from a billion years ago. 11. ODD TAXI. It is just the thing I wanted in anime. A good murder mystery. 12. Probably Tokyo Revengers OP. Don't know much about the EDs 13. Chainsaw man probably. 14. Endings with a perfect closure. And this is where it creates a difference in me. I usually prefer more nuanced endings regarding movies but more clear cut endings in TV Shows. Probably because I think that TV Shows show a proper journey so I think that to complete the journey the ending must be proper. But if the open ending is handled well, then it just might be one of my favorite endings.... |

| 1. Anime, then Manga 2. Seinen, and Shounen 3. Idk 4. 2000 - 2010 for me. 5. You can chat/talk to people 6. Yes. Everyone has their own opinions and fair points of giving criticism or expressing their own thoughts about certain topics. 7. Haven't, and I don't plan on going into one, since I don't like crowded places. 8. If its 1 out of 10, it would be 8. I don't mind people giving me anime recommendations and stuff. 9. I haven't watched a lot of mostly CGI anime, as long as the quality is good, then I'm good with it. 10. Well, I started here in MAL, so I'll go with MAL, since its easy for me to use and people are really active here. (11-12). I don't watch seasonals, so I can't give my opinion on that. 13. AoT Final Season Part 2, Spy x Family, Bleach: Thousand Year Blood War Arc, Mob Psycho 100 III, Blue Lock, etc. 14. Either way is fine. |

| 1. Manga. 2. Seinen. 3. I think Danderes? 4. 2010s. 5. Anime community ig. 6. Sometimes. 7. No. 8. Not much. 9. Bad. 10. Anilist looks more modern which I prefer. 11. Odd Taxi>Link Click>Ousama Ranking 12. Beastars season 2 op "Kaibutsu" idk about Ed. 13. Not sure yet. 14. Either if executed well but I guess I'd choose clear conclusion. |
| 1. Anime 2. Seinen 3. Kuudere 4. 2010s 5. I dunno lmao 6. Hell nah 7. yeah, and it was amazing 8. I don't know how much I trust anime recommendations from forum users, but I trust it if many forum users recommend it 9. it depends, if a lot of anime starts using CGI with poor quality, that is a bad thing, and vice versa. 10. I don't use Anilist, so I choose MAL 11. Yuru Camp S2 12. Yuru Camp OP and Re:Zero ED 13. Attack on Titan final season p2 14. Definitely endings with clear conclusion |

| 1. Manga 2. Seinen, but I dont mind any 3. None but if I had to pick one, Deredere 4. 2010s. A lot of shit in the middle but 2011-12 and 2019 were golden. 5. Nothing, honestly. 6. Yes. So many aspects of a show can be considered objectively in terms of storyboard and technicals. 7. No and no. I like my fair share of animanga and I like talking about it but im not gonna go visit a damn convention full of worshippers. 8. its a 50/50. Some were really good ones and others the opposite. 9. Nothing beats 2D and even if CGI in anime got better it, would ruin one of the many things that made me fall in love with anime. 10. Anilist. But i like mal for its simplicity AND FFS ADD DARK MODE ALREADY MY EYES CANT TAKE IT ANYMORE 11. Odd Taxi. Haven't scored a 10/10 in so long 12. takt opening and ousama ranking ed. on repeat 13. Spy x Family 14. Clear Conclusion. Each has its good and bad, plus it depends on the kind of show. So both, if done right, are good endings. |

| 1. Manga. 2. None preferable. 3. None. 4. Who cares. 5. Trash. Anime is there. 6. Part of. 7. I'm not willing to sell my kidney. 8. I have my own instincts. 9. They are cheap as fuck. 10. Anilist has my money, but I prefer MAL. 11. Odd Taxi. 12. None. 13. They are mid and overhyped way too early. 14. Execution is more important. |
Help! I need somebody. Help! Not just anybody. Help! You know I need someone. Helpppppp!  |
| Anime Seinen Idk deres 2010-2021 because gintama , vivy , fruits basket .and 100 more Forums and data and community No I don't but personally apt and gintama are perfect for me No convention I don't trust recc CGI can be great but only if done like aot Anilsit design This year would be gintama final I can't remember songs Aot 4 No unless its physco logical |

What’s the most anticipated anime for you in 2022? 14. Endings that are open to interpretation or endings with a clear conclusion? 1. Anime cause I've watched/read more than the others 2. Seinen 3. Tsundere 4. 2010's 5. I can list my anime 6. Yes and no. 7. Not an anime convention but a general gaming convention... which had anime ther. 8. Doesn't matter, if it's recomended to me it goes on my PlanToWatch list aka, my list to never acually watch but keep adding to. 9. It's a good thing because it'll get better over time and it depends on how they use it. 10. Both MAL, cause anilist is to minimalistic it makes it hard to acually do anything. 11. Best meaning my favourite... Vanitas no Karte. This is when the objective stuff comes in from the other question. 12. OP from Vivy Sing My Pleasure, and ED from Link Click OverThink 13. Still Vanitas no Karte cause it was my fav show this year, then CSM. 14. Both are great if done well, I prefer closed endings tho. |

| 1.Anime 2.shoujo 3.tsundere 4.2000s 5.forum games 6.I guess 7.I never went and didn't even give thoughts to it . 8.50% 9.not sure some cgi looks good but sometimes it's meh . 10.this site obviously. 11.in sequel term it's fruits basket final season or originality I guess heike mono or sonny boy ? 12.best op is from heike mono and ending is from either rezero s2 p 2 or AoT final season . 13.Made in abyss s2 14.both are good in their own way . |
| 1. Anime 2. Seinen 3. Probably Tsunade 4. 2010-2020 5. Toxicity 6. No, criticism has very little to do with objectivity, after all it's all just fiction. 7. No, haven't yet but maybe in the future 8. Don't bother to check 9. CGI is trash! Animators should stick to 2d 10. MAL is superior by far 11. Mushoku Tensei & Odd Taxi 12. Kaizoku oujo's OP. Don't know much about EDs 13. Definitely Blue Lock 14. Either way if fine |

| 1. Anime, donghua, hanguk aeni, manga, manhua, or manhwa? Anime 2. Shounen, seinen, shoujo, or josei? Seinen 3. Best dere? Probably tsundere 4. Best decade of anime? Probably 2010s (I do love anime from the 2000s and 1990s as well though) 5. Your favorite thing about MAL? Database 6. Do you believe in objectivity when it comes to anime criticism? To some extent 7. Have you ever been to an anime convention before? If so, did you like it? If not, would you ever plan on going to one? No, maybe 8. How much do you trust anime recommendations from MAL forum users in general? I do my own research afterwards, so I don't trust them fully 9. Your thoughts on CGI becoming more frequently used in anime? Is it a good or bad thing? ufotable are really good at blending CGI with 2D animation, Wit did the same with AOT at times, so it is possible to do it right. I have no issues with it as long as it doesn't look jarring, but 2D animation is always preferable. 10. MAL’s website design or Anilist’s website design? Which one is better in terms of looks, and which one is better in terms of features? Anilist when it comes to design, but MAL is better at everything else 11. Best anime of the year? Evangelion 3.0+1.0 12. Best OP and ED of 2021? OP - Komi san, ED - Sonny Boy 13. What’s the most anticipated anime for you in 2022? Spy x Family, Mob Psycho 100 S3, Yojouhan Time Machine Blues 14. Endings that are open to interpretation or endings with a clear conclusion? Both have their merits, so it depends on the execution and how well it fits with the rest of the show |

| 1. Anime, donghua, hanguk aeni, manga, manhua, or manhwa? Manga 2. Shounen, seinen, shoujo, or josei? Shounen and seinen 3. Best dere? None, but if I had to choose one then I guess kuudere 4. Best decade of anime? 2010s 5. Your favorite thing about MAL? Being able to sort/list out my anime/manga and favorites 6. Do you believe in objectivity when it comes to anime criticism? Depends. If it's something more technical like art style/animation, then yes. Like how bad the CGI for Ex-arm is. Otherwise, no. 7. Have you ever been to an anime convention before? If so, did you like it? If not, would you ever plan on going to one? No. Probably not, unless I go with a group of friends which is highly unlikely. 8. How much do you trust anime recommendations from MAL forum users in general? Rarely. I don't really listen to recommendations since people always like to either hype things up or trash everything. 9. Your thoughts on CGI becoming more frequently used in anime? Is it a good or bad thing? Depends. If it's good CGI like anime from Studio Orange, then I'm all for it. Otherwise, probably a bad thing. 10. MAL’s website design or Anilist’s website design? Which one is better in terms of looks, and which one is better in terms of features? MAL in terms of looks (although it might just be because I'm more used to it), Anilist in terms of features. 11. Best anime of the year? Link Click 12. Best OP and ED of 2021? OP - "Kaibutsu" Beastars S2, ED - "Avid" 86 S1 13. What’s the most anticipated anime for you in 2022? Vinland Saga S2 if it's coming out in 2022. Otherwise, honestly not too hyped about anything else coming out since I read the manga source material for a lot of them already and aren't too into most of them. 14. Endings that are open to interpretation or endings with a clear conclusion? Both are fine, although leaning more towards endings with a clear conclusion. |

Modern, easy to use, no profile pic restriction, many favourites, different rating systems. The only good thing about MAL is that it is more popular. 11.-13. Don't have an answer 14.

| 1. Anime, aeni=donghua, manhwa, manhua, manga (in that order) 2. Seinen & Shounen 3. tsundere 4. 2010s 5. How popular donghua is on MAL 6. Only if you critically rate anime objectively all the time, otherwise bad 7. Never been = too broke 8. 2/10, I don't care about whether they have the same voice actor or studio or producers. 9. As long as the CGI isn't half assed 2.5D cel shaded, then it's ok 10. MAL's design is better since it's more functional and all the information is available in a single frame. 11. Probably Tsukimichi Moonlit Fantasy = Mushoku Tensei = World's finest Assasssin 12. Combatants will be dispatched OP, no current ED 13. The Devil is a part Timer S2 or Shield Hero 14. Clear conclusion, Open ended conclusions suck and are a lazy plot device in anime |
| 1. Anime 2. Seinen 3. Tsun 4. 2010-2020 5. Discovering new anime and manga from the catalog 6. Yes, very much. 7. I've been in a couple before, it was ok but i don't plan to attend more before all goes to normality because restrictions suck. 8. 70% trust. 9. It's obviously bad, but some of them are pretty good though. 10. I dunno, never used AniList. 11. Yuru Camp season 2 12. OPs: "in case..." from Godzilla: S.P, "Ashita no Hanatachi" from YuYuYu: Dai Mankai no Shou and "Seize the Day" from Yuru Camp 2 --- EDs: "Avid" from 86, "Nai Nai" from Shadows House and "Haru no Tonari" from Yuru Camp 2. 13. Madoka's movie and Made in Abyss season 2, can't decide. 14. 50/50. It really depends from story to story. |

| 1. Anime 2. Seinen 3. don't know 4. 2010s 5. forums 6. Possible on some degree 7. Yes, years 2013, 2014 and 2019, would go again. I like them. 8. Some of them are pretty good, just difficult to find real hidden gems. 9. Needs a lot more work, currently CGI looks awful. But if it ends up looking as good as drawn anime (as some higher quality ones actually are), I'm fine 10. MAL is easier to use, otherwise I don't really see AniList being that much different. 11. According to my list Tensei shitara Slime Datta Ken 2nd Season 12. Don't know 13. Haven't really checked them out 14. Depends on the story |
 |
| 1. Anime, donghua, hanguk aeni, manga, manhua, or manhwa? Anime 2. Shounen, seinen, shoujo, or josei? I love shounen, but there's better seinen 3. Best dere? Your mom 4. Best decade of anime? Attack on Titan 5. Your favorite thing about MAL? Probably chatting with the homies 6. Do you believe in objectivity when it comes to anime criticism? Sure, but it depends on the person. Most people are just douches bags who want to be special. 7. Have you ever been to an anime convention before? If so, did you like it? If not, would you ever plan on going to one? No, I don't leave the house. 8. How much do you trust anime recommendations from MAL forum users in general? Only if my friends recommend it. 9. Your thoughts on CGI becoming more frequently used in anime? Is it a good or bad thing? Animators found a way to be lazy and I respect it (still don't prefer tho) 10. MAL’s website design or Anilist’s website design? Which one is better in terms of looks, and which one is better in terms of features? Mal cause I like customising my profile. 11. Best anime of the year? If a sequel Attack on Titan S4, if not, then Link Click 12. Best OP and ED of 2021? Hmmmmm My War from Attack on Titan and Avid from 86 13. What’s the most anticipated anime for you in 2022? Attack on Titan Final Season Part 2, but oh my gosh, just give me my Vinland Saga S2 already 14. Endings that are open to interpretation or endings with a clear conclusion? Clear conclusion, less hate, cause people nowadays are too dumb to appreciate endings that are open to interpretation. |
     |
| 7. Have you ever been to an anime convention before? If so, did you like it? If not, would you ever plan on going to one? Not been to one, and probably never will. |
  |
| 1. Anime 2. I guess Shounen 3. Tsundere 4. Last decade 2010-2020 5. Meeting new people 6. Yes everyone has a difference of opinion 7. No and yes I would 8. I listen to my friends all the time on mal recommend me anime 9. If it's used well I don't mind it 10. MAL 11. Link Click 12. Can't decide honestly toss up between Link Click, Odd Taxi, and Vivy 13. Attack on Titan the Final Season Part 2 14. I like both if they fit the context of the story |
| 1. Manga 2. Seinen 3. Tsundere 4. 2010s 5. Nothing 6. Yes, and that's a fact 7. No 8. I don't care about it 9. Good cgi is bearable 10. Anilist in both cases 11. Aot: final season 12. Op: jjk op2. Ed: Aot: final season 13. Chainsaw man 14. Closed endings |

| 1. manga 2. seiinen 3. kuudere 4. dunno 5. don't know 6. partially, but not totall 7. yes, liked it as much as any other convention 8. like to try everything so listen to everything 9. as long as its god its fine, don't really care 10. mal is better in terms of design and few features 11. probably odd taxi 12. don't know 13. made in abyss second season 14. endings with a clear conclusion |
| 1. Anime, donghua, hanguk aeni, manga, manhua, or manhwa? Anime 2. Shounen, seinen, shoujo, or josei? Seinen, usually. My all-time favorite animanga is a shounen though 3. Best dere? None 4. Best decade of anime? 2010s 5. Your favorite thing about MAL? Forum games 6. Do you believe in objectivity when it comes to anime criticism? Absolutely not 7. Have you ever been to an anime convention before? If so, did you like it? If not, would you ever plan on going to one? Never been. Don't plan on going since I'm a huge introvert 8. How much do you trust anime recommendations from MAL forum users in general? Not much, my taste is pretty unique 9. Your thoughts on CGI becoming more frequently used in anime? Is it a good or bad thing? No opinion. BEASTARS and the CGI JoJo OPs look great. The background CG characters in Cells at Work! and the CGI in Fate/ fight scenes are obvious, but they look good so I don't mind them 10. MAL’s website design or Anilist’s website design? Which one is better in terms of looks, and which one is better in terms of features? No opinion, never used Anilist or even visited it 11. Best anime of the year? Likely JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Stone Ocean. Nothing this year has really impressed me yet, TBH 12. Best OP and ED of 2021? Probably Stone Ocean again. JoJo OPs and EDs are always great. OP was revealed yesterday and it slaps hard. ED had been leaked but I'm not listening to it before it's officially revealed. If you're interested, it probably wouldn't be too hard to find out which song they used 13. What’s the most anticipated anime for you in 2022? Once again, JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Stone Ocean 14. Endings that are open to interpretation or endings with a clear conclusion? Clear conclusion. If a show leaves something open to interpretation, then my interpretation will be "write the show instead of making fans do it for you", lol |

If so, did you like it? If not, would you ever plan on going to one? I was, multiple times. no it was tiring. the merch was overpriced. 8.

Is it a good or bad thing? it's disgusting because it's used to save time and effort. 10. MAL’s website design or Anilist’s website design?

| 馬鹿げた倫理 全部ガラクタで |
| 1. Anime 2. Seinen 3. Whatever Dere Kanbaru is 4. Obviously 2000s 5. Forum Games 6. ¯_(ツ)_/¯ whatever that means 7. No 8. Pretty good 9. As long as it doesn't distract me, it's fine 10. AL 11. ODD TAXI 12. Best OP Can't decide between these two Best ED Again, can't decide 13. Made in Abyss S2, Spy x Family and of course, AoT Final Season 2 14. As long as I'm satisfied, both. |
| 1. Anime, donghua, hanguk aeni, manga, manhua, or manhwa? Anime and manga. Not a big fan of works outside of Japan. 2. Shounen, seinen, shoujo, or josei? Shounen and Seinen. Hard to choose though. Indeed some works could be considered as both shounen and seinen, which confuses me even more on the boundaries between these two. 3. Best dere? Dandere (after searching on Google the types of dere we have) 4. Best decade of anime? 1990s, I guess. 5. Your favorite thing about MAL? You can make lists of your favorite anime, manga and people. 6. Do you believe in objectivity when it comes to anime criticism? Not really. Criticism itself is more or less subjective, especially come to judgement on fictional stuff like aesthetics and stories. 7. Have you ever been to an anime convention before? If so, did you like it? If not, would you ever plan on going to one? Yes, several time. Some of them were good, but some of them were not as good as I expected because the products didn't catch my attention. I plan to go to one on 26/12. 8. How much do you trust anime recommendations from MAL forum users in general? I prefer watching the anime I like instead and usually don't need recommendations from the forum, unless I really want something really specific. 9. Your thoughts on CGI becoming more frequently used in anime? Is it a good or bad thing? Some utilization of CGI is really good in my opinion. Some famous examples include Land of the Lustrous and the Jojo ops (the Stone Ocean one is insane and perfect), and also the CGI in Kakegurui blends pretty well with the 2D animation. But some are worse unfortunately, from the infamous scenes in Berserk to some scenes in Baki. It's a good thing to use, but if it couldn't blend into the 2D animation or the story itself should not be told entirely on CGI, it causes pure disaster. 10. MAL’s website design or Anilist’s website design? Which one is better in terms of looks, and which one is better in terms of features? MAL. It looks much neater and have better features in my opinion. BTW I only knew Anilist after joining MAL, so it might not be justified enough. 11. Best anime of the year? Pui Pui Molcar :) 12. Best OP and ED of 2021? OP: STONE OCEAN from Jojo Season 5 (but if anime ended in 2021 also counts then it'll be VIVID VICE from Jujutsu Kaisen) ED: Infinity from Sk8 13. What’s the most anticipated anime for you in 2022? Stone Ocean of course! And Kakegurui Twin. 14. Endings that are open to interpretation or endings with a clear conclusion? Clear conclusion is better. Though I won't be completely unacceptable of opening endings. For instance, the ending of Revolutionary Girl Utena is really good even if it's up to interpretation. |
| 1. Anime 2. Seinen 3. Whatever dere Senjogahara is 4. 2010s, 2000s comes very close 5. It's great for anime discussion 6. My criticism is more of a mix of objectivity and subjectivity. But I don't think that 100% objective criticism is a bad thing, it just shouldn't be shoved down people's throats. 7. No 8. If it's a person who has a similar taste to me I'll be sure to give their recommendation a try. 9. Good CGI can elevate animation to a whole new level. So yes cgi is good thing if it's done properly. 10. MAL looks more simple and convenient to me. 11. Link Click 12. Link Click op and ed 13. Kaguya sama s3 14. Clear conclusion endings |

How much do you trust anime recommendations from MAL forum users in general? From anime pages. I don't even read the thing unless I am desperate. From other sources. I usually 50/50. I don't mind any anime to begin with. >9. Your thoughts on CGI becoming more frequently used in anime? Is it a good or bad thing? Doesn't mean much. But it does kill the 2d origin >10.

| 1. Anime, donghua, hanguk aeni, manga, manhua, or manhwa? Anime, though I really like webtoons too - which you forgot to add as an option though, so... (Poor webtoons, they're so ignored...) 2. Shounen, seinen, shoujo, or josei? Hmm, not sure. It depends on the work I guess; I think most of the stuff I like is Seinen and Shojo, though there's a chance I might like some shounen too, and definitely don't like josei. 3. Best dere? Tsunderes can be fun characters if the execution is good, but otherwise eh, I don't care about this sort of labeling. 4. Best decade of anime? Definitely 2000s, this is the time span from where most of my faves are. 5. Your favorite thing about MAL? The customizability of the look of the list, and the fact I can write comments in there. Otherwise, out of the social part, only the forum games and the opportunity to socialize with a few nice people are the only positives for me, and the rest is inferior to the other anime site I use. 6. Do you believe in objectivity when it comes to anime criticism? No, everyone is different and as such views stuff differently. 7. Have you ever been to an anime convention before? If so, did you like it? If not, would you ever plan on going to one? No, they don't really take place around here and I'm not willing to travel abroad for such a thing. 8. How much do you trust anime recommendations from MAL forum users in general? I prefer to trust my own judgment instead, because turns out my taste tends to diverge a lot from that of others. But if someone I talked with a decent amount (e.g. a MAL friend) gives me a recommendation, I'm willing to seriously consider it and watch it at some point. 9. Your thoughts on CGI becoming more frequently used in anime? Is it a good or bad thing? Depends on the quality of the CGI; if its good quality (like that of Liang Bu Yi) it's not a bad thing at all - though I still prefer non-CGI stuff. 10. MAL’s website design or Anilist’s website design? Which one is better in terms of looks, and which one is better in terms of features? The only correct answer is none of these. Anime-Planet blows those other sites out of the water with how great its site is, both in looks and in features. 11. Best anime of the year? No idea, haven't watched enough of them to be able to judge. 12. Best OP and ED of 2021? Again no idea. 13. What’s the most anticipated anime for you in 2022? Machikado Mazoku season 2 14. Endings that are open to interpretation or endings with a clear conclusion? I prefer endings with a clear conclusion, though open endings can be good if they're done well and act as a point for people to think instead of as a cop-out for the authors. |

| 1. manga 2. seinen 3. none, I don't care about fictional women 4. can't decide, they're all equally good really 5. the fact that I can keep track of what anime I'm watching and shit 6. I think you should be both objective and subjective. so you should give score based on objective stuff like storytelling or art, but also on subjective stuff like enjoyment. 7. no, I don't want to walk alongside sweaty hairy fat guys. 8. idk, I don't really pay a lot of attention on that. I'll watch anything regardless if I'm gonna like it or not. 9. I don't really care. animation is animation. both 2D and 3D can look bad, so there's not really that big of a difference to me. 10. mal I guess 11. this year? I'm not sure but I really like sonny boy, ousama ranking, shadows house and odd taxi. I also found the vampire dies in no time hilarious. 12. op: shadows house or heike monogatari or blue period (maybe even 86); ed: sonny boy 13. maybe kaguya sama or made in abyss idk 14. I like both type of endings, as long as they're well executed. |
| one piece episode 321 15:46 (or 16:33) you're welcome |
that is indeed always funny. very based sir! |
| one piece episode 321 15:46 (or 16:33) you're welcome |
| 1. Anime, 2. depens on mood 3. decent Tsundere(not too much) 4. can't decide(but I prefer older ones) 5. anime/manga tracking 6. Not entirely 7. No 8. Probably, if the reviewers have similar taste to me. 9. I believe CGI can be good e.g. Beastar, so It depends on how good the director can cope and decently illustrate the show. 10. MAL 11. Dunno, I watch older shows. 12. Dunno 13. Chainsaw man 14. Both if it have good direction and suit the show. |

What’s the most anticipated anime for you in 2022? 14. Endings that are open to interpretation or endings with a clear conclusion? Just wanted to make a questionnaire since I’m curious to know what people think about these. Btw, feel free to skip some of these questions if you’d like :p 1. Why is LN not an option? 2. Shounen... Maybe? Probably. 3. Hate me all you want, but I like Tsundere. 4. The recent anime are good. I think this decade is going to be the best and the ones after it, too. I like the styles we have today and the isekai/battle royale themes. 6. Absolutely not. Objectivity is in mathematics and not in an anime's review. 7. No, and I don't think I'd like to try. I'm fine here at home. 8. I don't care about them most of the time, but they are mostly accurate. 9. I think drawings are always going to give life into an anime and not CGI. Although at places, it is tolerable. Studios need to cut costs. 10. This design, I like the feeling of retro forums and just a plain and clean interface. No need for anything fancy when it comes to what is basically a database. 11. Haven't watched many this year 12. Same thing 13. Shield hero 14. Depends on what type of show it is. If it's lighthearted romance, I don't mind there not being a clear ending. If it's a drama, though, I think it has to see it through. |

What’s the most anticipated anime for you in 2022? 14. Endings that are open to interpretation or endings with a clear conclusion? 1. All of them have their good and bad sides, so I can't exactly choose, but out of all of them, I consume anime the most. 2. As I said, all of them have good and bad sides, so I can't pick. 3. Dandere or deredere. 4. 2010s, I think that the anime that were released last decade were the best, but all of the decades have their qualities. 5. It is very organised. 6. Depends on the way you think, but I personally rate anime subjectivly. 7. No, I've never been to an anime convention, but I would go if I have an opportunity. 8. They aren't the best all the time, but there are worse internet users at giving anime reccomendations than them. 9.CGI, if used in a right way, can make the quality of anime better, but I do miss the times when CGI was less frequent. 10. Anilist has modern design, while MAL has traditional and nostalgic design. MAL is ore focused on forums, while Anilist is more focused at anime browsing and tracking. 11. Odd taxi, it is very good, but underrated. 12. I skip OPs and EDs, so I don't really care. 13. Chainsaw man(if it comes out, who knows, maybe it will come out in 2025 ¯\_(ツ)_/¯), but I'll go with 3rd season of Kaguya-sama: Love is War. 14. Depends... |

| 1. I tend to watch more Anime 2. A majority of the anime I have seen is aimed at the Shonen demographic and probably need to diversify what I watch more. 3. tsundere I guess? 4. Probably 90s when it comes to the aesthetic 5. Helps me remember what episode I'm on when I don't have time to watch all the shows I want to watch when I come back to it 6. There's always some bias, there's no real 100% objective review 7. Nah. I plan on going once I'm more comfortable post-COVID and when I start medically transitioning so I can cosplay the characters I want to 8. Not really gone off forum reccs much 9. CGI in and of itself isn't bad it really just depends on how it is implemented and how good it looks. It can't be too stiff and look out of place. Sometimes even rendering the CGI at a higher framerate can kill the blending with the hand drawn elements. 10. I've only ever used MAL 11. I didn't really watch too many new anime this year ngl. Been too busy so I can't really judge on that. Out of what I've seen idk Iruma season 2 i guess. 12. Soul Salvation for OP prolly. Idk about Ed's really due to how I haven't seen too much 13. Honestly, looks like a lot of the shows I'm interested in are follow up seasons to shows i need to watch 14. Depends on the anime its attatched to as sometimes it makes more sense for an open ending in a series like Cowboy Bebop while it wouldn't make sense to have an open ending to a show like One Piece whenever that ends |
This post is brought to you by your local transfem gamer goblin. Will not tolerate bigotry and will fight against "anti-woke" sentiment to make the anime community a safer place.  |
| 1. Anime>Manga not much interested in the others 2. Seinen 3. Tsundere but not extreme ones 4. The 2010s because most of my favorites are from then. 5. The old school look 6. No, as different people think differently 7. I'd love to but haven't been to any till now. 8. No, unless they have similar tastes to me. 9. I'd stop watching new anime if that happens. CGI feels lifeless to me. 10. I like the old-school look of MAL, so design-wise it would be MAL. Can't say anything about features as I haven't used Anilist much. 11. Haven't watched much anime that has been released this year but out of the ones I had watched it would be SnK The Final Season. 12. Best op would be kyokaisen from 86 part 2 but best ed is a tough choice. 13. SnK The final season part 2 14. Clear conclusion |
