Seasons of Anime 2019 is now open for sign-ups! 

Seasons of Anime Exchange is a multi-fandom gift exchange held every year.

How does it work?

All contents are encouraged to have a “Season” element—for example, spring, summer, autumn, winter, sunny, dry, or rainy—which doesn’t necessarily have to be the main theme of the creative work.

What fandoms are included?

The theme for this year is 90s Anime. All anime that started airing within the years 1990 to 1999 may be included. The following anime are included as part of the pre-defined list:
