Animes have been very popular especially in the last few years. This is something that is noticeable even when considering the anime that Netflix only wants to make. We do not know how the next year will be, but this year we can say that we got many popular series.
Although some of the animes that showed their popularity during the year are the continuation of the old series, there are also anime that started in the market as a completely new series, and we guess that it is quite possible that we will see the continuation of most of them next year.
