Congratulations on finishing your HBO Max travels! Glad that you found some things that you enjoyed on the way. I am realizing from your posts that I could stand to watch more things in the movie format. I haven’t watched many anime movies at all other than the occasional movie that is part of a series I am watching.
As for personal AOTY, earlier this year, I was sure that Oshi no Ko had it on lock. However, Frieren has been truly special. I really, really love the manga, so I kind of figured I would be let down by the anime adaptation since I didn’t think it could get any better. However, it has exceeded even my optimistic dreams. I was worried that the story might not connect with general audiences, but I am really glad to see the widespread love for the series.
