As per usual, one year cannot go past by without counting down the bst cuties that anime had to offer. And there were plenty of them to the excitement of everyone so let us not waste anymore time!

10. Roxy Migurdia (Mushoku Tensei: Isekai Ittara Honki Dasu)

Once I saw her finger herself to the protagonist’s parents getting it on, I knew she was a pure freak in the best possible way.

9. Halkara (Slime Taoshite 300-nen)

Undeniably hilarious blonde cutie. Wacky the best possible way.

8. March (Fumetsu no Anata e)

The best “I wish she was my daughter” of the year hands down. Although we don’t see much of her later in the show, she was such a ray of sunshine like all little kids are.

7. Platelets (Hataraku Saibou!!)

I can listen to anone anone for hours on end and never get tired of its cuteness.

6. Emma Brightness (Ore dake Haireru Kakushi Dungeon)

Blonde with a side ponytail? Sign me up for some fun with her!

5. Jahy “Hii-chan” (Jahy-sama wa Kujikenai!)

Loli Nagatoro if you could characterize her as that. But still absolutely adorable in her bratty nature.

4. Shouko Komi (Komi-san wa, Comyushou desu.)

Whenever her cute chibi face starts forming, I never stop squeeing from cuteness!

3. Futaba Igarashi (Senpai ga Uzai Kouhai no Hanashi)

We all must know a Futaba in our own place of work. Unfortunately I do not and I want to bad.

2. Yuzuki “Yuji” Tachibana (Taishou Otome Otogibanashi)

The most wholesome cute girl I’ve seen from this year. Her reactions and expressions never cease to make me laugh and smile all the way.

Hayase “Hayacchi” Nagatoro (Ijiranaide, Nagatoro-san)

As a man of culture who puts dark skinned anime girls on a high pedestal, this may come as not a shock to anyone. Especially one who is the teasing type to their senpai. I am one of those who likes to tease and vice versa, don’t judge me.
