my best anime of 2021 and i always get nervous right before doing these type of videos because
i want to remember everything and at the same time i feel like i try to watch as much as possible to
trying to give everything a fair shot so let's get into it over 100 anime watched and if your
favorite anime didn't make it onto my list feel free to ask why i will be doing a quick follow-up
to this video and answering your question i do notice that like 99 of you don't answer the
question i do ask so if you do ask a question there's a high chance i will be picking it
so go ahead post below and while you're at it smash that thumbs up and let's dive into this
jiu jitsu kaizen zero the movie combined with the Jujutsu Kaisen anime did you forget core 2
was this year or actually 2021 i'm a little late on this video although i originally did not expect
to be in japan to actually watch this and the new runner plus just laughed in my face so really just
emphasizing some of the stuff i mentioned in the review i really love the animation i really love
the characters especially for shinji 2.0 joining Jujutsu kaisen if you're a fan of the Jujutsu
Kaisen world it expands on that if you're a fan of Gojo there's so much of him for you to enjoy
if anything just watching this movie really got me hyped for what's to come for duchess
or kaizen c'mon have season two been confirmed yet speaking about the anime the Jujutsu Kaisen anime
really blew me away i think one of the things i clearly enjoyed was the obvious bleach inspiration
parts it really felt like they made that single anime where you don't even have to check out
the source material manga for it because it's that much better i know there's this whole Demon Slayer
backlash going on but it actually reminded me of what ufotable did for that anime and really to
praise his anime series even more but actually did give me a vibe of a better version of what my hero
academia set out to do doing something similar only much faster and much more concentrated
so definitely share it down below are you also loving Jujutsu Kaisen as much as i did
do you think it's over height are you gonna check out the movie whenever that's possible kobayashi's
dragon mate season 2. oh yes killed animation is back and out the gate freaking running or should
i say breathing fire so the dragon maid anime actually came out four years ago it's been that
long once again season two so much god to your animation so much gorgeous animation really from
the scenes from the characters this is the type of stuff you love seeing when you're watching anime
and this isn't even an action anime but the times that there are fights they go all out thank you so
much i mean this animation is so good you'll find it on top 10 anime fights for the year and the
shiny lovely animation is awesome but what really surprised me was the actual story here with the
dragon maid season 2 you now have them actually fleshing out a lot of the dragon characters
you actually see Tohru herself progressing and developing like bothering kobayashi less and
less being less reliant on that and of course the anime has been hinting it from the very beginning
i was actually a little surprised to see them go all out and put it out there in the anime i really
just need to find the time but i'm ready to jump into the manga so post down below did you love
the dragon mate as much as i did how much did you miss kyoto animation's gorgeous animation. Tensura
season 2 plus the slime diaries story wise you now have the adorable little slime trying to become a
demon lord this year you really got more of what you love from season one one of the things that
in particular stood out for me was really seeing Rimuru getting pushed to the edge like finally
this guy got a challenge where he legitimately was close to dying he really only escaped by the
skin of his slime the first core of this anime also made me realize how much i actually like
a specific character like i had no idea until a certain event but you might be wondering jerry why
is this not higher i think even the most hardcore slime fans would agree that there is a difference
between cour 1 and core 2. in cour he had that whole build above the war he had the whole build
up of that one dinner i don't know whether this was intentional but it honestly did not deliver
not that it was bad but it just left you wondering why exactly was this an issue in the first place
that aside don't get me wrong i still love this series i'm looking forward to the movie another
thing that is pushing this up is the slime diaries most of the time i would prefer something being
slow paced which is why i think a lot of other isekai anime like SAO, Mushoku, Rezero konosuba
they should do something similar to the slime diaries take that time to actually flesh out the
characters flesh out the world you don't always have to have your story going 200 miles an hour
so i'm curious post down below how do you feel about the slime a sec-eye series do you love this
little slime or is it just not your cup of tea or should i say your cup of slime Evangelion thrice
upon a time the fourth and final rebuild movie this final Evangelion installment had a lot to do
i mean you already had the beloved masterpiece that is the original anime series on top of it
it had to conclude the rebuild series while at the same time also building off this previous
third rebuild installment that left everyone mixed to say the least i mean just focusing on
the progression of Shinji story to conclusion ultimately how that's resolved and finishes i
think that was chef's kiss i really felt like it was one of those things that i appreciated more
on each rewatch and i know i could hear it now jerry if you love it so much why isn't this higher
on your list so for this i really only wish i had seen Evangelion much earlier a lot of hardcore
anime fans that i know of saw this when they were much younger if only i saw this like five years or
a decade earlier but i still loved it i could see this being anime of the year for a lot of you to
post down below did you love this final conclusion to Evangelion or are you someone that thinks this
anime is way too convoluted euro camp season 2 i was actually so surprised at how much i love this
series so just like the first time for this one i really tried to put off each episode i tried to
actually space them out second season for this anime actually gave me a lot of stuff i didn't
know i wanted for example seeing the backstory for rin and even nadeshiko and also them getting some
surprising development you could tell these girls are going to be campers for the rest of their
lives if you're doing that in japan that actually sounds pretty awesome and yes once again this
season you got so many gorgeous camping spawns it actually has made me want to try camping although
i think my dumbass would die or freeze to death and overall this anime once again was another
helping of this very comfy anime i think in the year that's been 2021 it's been so crappy this has
helped so much just to heal the heart a bit i'm a little skeptical that this is gonna work in a
movie format but i will go see that so definitely voice down below i can't be the only one that
really loved this comfy anime the dagger titan season 4 part 1 or would it be the Attack on titan
the final season controversial manga ending aside you now had the controversial situation of the
Attack on Titan anime going from whit studio over to Mappa ultimately the main question has been
did Mappa deliver so i already put out a very in-depth video going over what Mappa did better
what what studio did better and given all the restrictions especially with the rona situation
with the wit studio era you did have this top tier animator working on the god tier fight scenes
for the attacking titan anime over at Mappa those got replaced with cg sure some of this stuff could
have been better but i think i slowly got used to it especially since i do want to emphasize i have
been watching attack on titan more for the story rather than the fines which is why huge props
to mappa for the actual slower paced scenes for the detailed art design i was very much
pleasantly surprised i mean there were so many places in the anime that i thought were elevated
much more compared to the manga counterpart so i don't know about you but i'm definitely rooting
for them let's hope they have enough time and a good schedule for the following part or two
definitely post your thoughts down below did Mappa deliver definitely check out my in-depth
video diving into Mappa versus with studio mushoku tensei aka jobless reincarnation for some of you
the very controversial sega anime i'm gonna be crowning this my number one for non-original new
anime and i know i'm cheating a little but it's my video for this isekai you have the controversial
flawed rudy character you should know this is one of the second anime that inspires several others
if not most so you should be getting a familiar isekai flavor here it's like eating your favorite
hamburger except this being cut by michelin star chef which by far the best thing i love
about this series is really the goddamn world building it actually feels like there's been
thought in constructing this world huge props to the studio for skipping the opening and instead
actually constructing and showing you more of the gorgeous visuals of this world at the same
time you do have fleshed out characters it doesn't just feel like they exist there to be for the main
character to do something with they are their own people unfortunately i did read the light number
beforehand so instead i am encouraging other people to actually check out the source material
for the juicy details for the juicy world info or hey check out all my videos done on it you may
recall me mentioning that unfortunately i do think i did hurt my anime viewing experience not only
reading the light novel beforehand but doing these in-depth breakdowns of what the enemies skipped
each episode it might be like watching the cowboy bebop anime before watching the live action one
that's surely not gonna help your experience but it doesn't matter it is this high up on my list
here solely as the time has gone by the original light novel and anime have been separating for me
so i've been able to enjoy it more and i'm pretty sure that's gonna continue so definitely let me
know below was Mushoku could then say your anime of the year or was really much too controversial
for you re zero season two part two you may recall i freaking fell in love with reserve season one
kinda like how subaru fell over for Emilia in the meantime we did get those two Rezero ova specials
there was so much freaking teasing for things to come but now you get into Rezero season 2 which
i felt really added and gave you what season 1 was missing one of the first standouts of this
season has been subaru there is so much growth this guy is almost unrecognizable from season
one finally getting a little power getting a little stronger but really taking charge
and almost becoming somewhat of a leader figure on the flip side recall that issue that people
had with season 1 oh Emilia supposedly having no character just being there to look pretty
season 2 should have shut that down you now have a taste of Emilia’s past you get a taste of all
her troubles all her issues much like seeing super progress it was also fun and lovely to see Emilia
grow into her own by the end of this you could definitely tell how much of an influence super
has been on her and also being influenced by the greedy witch which by the way i don't care
about some of the light nova stuff i am totally sipping a bit for echidna i would drink her fluent
but seriously this season fleshed everyone out including roswell the whole situation and mystery
going on with betty and with the rem gone ram got a chance to shine a bit too this season
feels almost perfect you could go back to season 1 and re-watch with a new understanding of all these
characters you might be wondering why this isn't higher first off a slight nitpick rem you know
how much of a big ass rim fan i am naturally i wasn't all a fan of ram being put on ice
not to mention i'm really just getting sick and tired of that sleep trip but really the main thing
that i think has hurt reasonable season 2 has been the horror in the situation with the delays
so definitely post down below did you enjoy re zero and season 2 as much as i did and i'm
talking about the whole thing or are you more of a fan of mushoku vivi i'm giving this my number
one new original anime for this story you have vivi whose soul mission is to try to make people
happy with their music you got wit studio plus the reason your author being mixed in for this
lovely concoction it's like anime terminator meets re-zero i also got this ghost in the shell vibe
lucy vibe hell vivi herself really reminds me of violet evergarden and maybe i'm just
a sucker for these ai becoming human type of stories but oh my god this was crafted so well
i love them touching on things that are not too far ahead like potentially a i love how
about marrying your Alexa how about potentially ai getting so depressed they just off themselves
and this really isn't doing this anime justice there were really so many episodes that really
had me in tears or my god this one episode where there is a loss of someone almost a loss of self
that it outright had me ugly crying by the end i really do think this anime benefited by being this
weekly watch oh those amazing cliffhangers hell i almost didn't want to watch the last few episodes
like it was that delicious cup of wine you don't want to finish i mean hell i think my only real
complaint is why the hell is there not a vivi figure i love this series so much i would spend
a few hundreds on a vivi figure and this is not even talking about the gorgeous animation scene
throughout vivi or the amazing art style of so much attention to detail that has become the wit
studio staple and i really can't stress enough the accomplishment or the justice minor miracle
to actually get this short original anime that it actually didn't fall flat on its face unlike some
other anime this year with the current difficult times at hands i don't know how long will last
but i really do think this vivi anime will be one of the stories i remember until the day i pass
definitely let me know below did you love vivi as much as i did and if you haven't i do highly
recommend to treat yourself and really quickly a few honorable mentions starting with jojo part 6.
honestly i'm not a fan of netflix relations in chunks i'm just craving more zombieland season
2 i don't know about you but i really enjoyed the zombie girls getting back into dent and a lovely
movie surprise star wars visions i know they didn't get the attention they hoped for but if not
star wars try this with other properties how about marvel or dc 86 i loved core 1 season 1 but then
they delayed the last few episodes so i gotta wait on that komi-san can't communicate so i freaking
love the music and the animation on the first episode i watched it 30 freaking times almost
tearing up the SAO progressive movie mind number one so really going back to that SAO death game
this is the set guy that kayaba envisioned unlike the light novel you do have the surprising focus
on Asuna’s point of view the whole movie gave me this mother's rosario arc vibe and you already
heard me gushing about it in my full review i absolutely loved everything about it i've seen
it over five times already including the early pre-screening and i really just adore how much SAO
has had a new influence on my life you heard me before mention that SAO is a major reason i'm even
living in japan right now and maybe i'll delete this for the final video but i briefly mentioned
earlier this year late summer early fall i really was not in the best of state not feeling well
let's just say there were not so many pleasant things happening in real life and definitely the
whole rona lockdown situation didn't help any of that and it was to the point that for a good
amount of time i was almost not eating i mean it was to the point that i was really just forcing
myself to eat this what 200 calorie bar thankfully one of the things that helped me get to a turning
point for that was luckily getting a chance to go to the print screen for this SAO movie and hey as
a positive for this i now fit a japanese medium shirt size so there's that so what i'm saying
a huge thank you once again to SAO i'm really curious to the new SAO movie coming out this
year 2022 but anyway do share in the celebration did your favorite anime make it into this video go
ahead and post your top 3 or top 5 in a comment or i dare you ask why your favorite anime wasn't here
