      It's why I don't put any stock into awards. People will just see "Attack on Titan" and vote. Demon Slayer could be placed in best Slice of Life and it'd still win. They'd be better off just tapping into the AniTuber community, picking 50 anime youtubers and letting them be the only voters.

    Honestly I think there’s a simple way to improve the voting for the awards.
    1. More judges, getting as many people from as many different communities and cultures as possible will always lead to better diversity in perspectives and opinions. I would especially like if they got a couple industry professionals to weigh in on more technical awards like best director.
    2. Reduce the public vote to as small as they can be. As Garnt said in the video viewers don’t actually care how much their vote actually contributed they just want to FEEL like they contributed, personally think the game awards has a great balance in this regard.
    3. Require judges to have at least watched all of, or at least most of the shows in each category. Like set a minimum your only allowed to vote in this category if you’ve seen at least 4/6 anime’s. If judges haven’t met that requirement then they simply skip that category and vote on others they do meet the requirement for.
    I feel like just implementing these changes will make the actual awards part a little better. Will there still be stinker choices? Yes but that’s the fun of award shows to see what got snubbed and what got the biggest W. Everything else about the show is fine they just need to tighten up the pacing a bit.

      Reducing the public vote to as small as it can be would only ruin any fun the awards can be by just being exactly like the game awards, terrible. Idk who uses TGA as an example of a good awards show, the 5% of audience influence is clearly meaningless and they almost always tend to smell their own farts since the entirety of the jury is composed of gaming journalistic media or western industry “high” figures. And they nominate not at all controversial and terribly received games like TLOU2 or Death Stranding, or give an accessibility award every year to playstation exclusives that aren’t available on any other platform other than a sony box. Or let Genshin Impact not only be nominated but win Game of the Year by “fan” choice. Or spend 4 hours of our lives on ads to games that are already out there and/or are openly financially predatory, while at the same time rushing every category possible to suck some Hollywood’s millionaires balls. What an example to follow!

    This year's anime awards was a bit strange because Crunchyroll, which cannot be legally streamed in Japan, decided to do a big Japanese industry award show live in Japan, in Japanese... so all the non-Japanese voting Crunchy public can watch? Who was the show for? I'd have been happier to just watch Sally Amaki joke and be herself in English in a pre-recorded bit with some special guest music as she reads out the awards and maybe some pre-recorded and translated bits with the winners. That way its geared toward the Crunchyroll watching audience.

      It doesn't surprise me, nothing Crunchyroll does makes any sense. Demon Slayer is by far the top anime, and have you seen how messy the "series'" listing are for that TOP #1 show? If they can't get the top anime right, how are we supposed to expect they can get the rest of the shows right? It takes SOOO much effort just to get to the shows you are ACTIVELY watching on a day to day basis. More than a couple times it took me needing to type a manual search for frickin' One Piece to access the show episode listing, even though it is by far one of the most popular running shows. Its hard to get UX/UI that massively bad.

    Crunchyrol can try to look as legitimate as possible but no matter what the actual awards themselves are what matters and clearly they drop the ball every year on that front. They can't even distinguish between a side and main character. Not to mention that fan votes are always going to end up being popularity contests. No one who listened to the Made in Abyss soundtrack will ever say that it was worse that AOT's. This is probably the reason why the awards aren't as popular anymore, they just don't feel deserved in many cases. At least that's why I don't tune in anymore.

Studios also want to be eligible for as many awards as possible so they will nominate themselves over a spread of categories when really everything was part of one. In the Oscars main actors get nominated as supporting actors for this reason essentially every time they have two main female / male roles

    I honestly feel disappointed that Mushoku Tensei "Jobless Reincarnation" didn't won any wards when they clearly deserved at least one-or-two. Is so crazy how such a greatly animated, loved franchise, didn't got the support it deserved, but no matter what happens I know they will definitely shine trough on their newly announced season 2, of course it was a though competition but some awards where clearly misplaced, I hope they succeed next time, for the fact that they are not only adapting the novel greatly, but making an actually great Isekai feeling, my hopes for the best for their studio which is solemnly dedicated to it, I know they will do good next time, so lets show what you guys got 👏👏👏!!!

    I do indeed skip most ending sequences but in my humble opinion this season had many absolute banger endings - "Yofukashi no Uta", "Comedy", "Koshaberi Biyori" and "Koi no Yukue" were all really good. They made me actually listen to the ending after the episode and just vibe to it. "My Nonfiction" from Kaguya's rap episode was also quite cool, definitely remember it more than the other Kaguya ending that got nominated. I think I voted for "Yofukashi no Uta" here because it's not just a banger song but also the reason we got this great anime.

    The AoT S4 soundtrack is amazing, I could listen to damn near every track on both parts. Traitor, Footsteps of Doom, From You, 2,000 years ago are some highlights. The OST reflects the anime's state, adding to what we know in a new way. From Wit to Mappa, from Sawano to Kohta, they both build on what came before with their own new flavors. Made in Abyss OST is in my opinion Kevins Magnum Opus. He understood the assignment and elevated the anime's moments to be even more painful, Made in Abyss isn't what it is without him. Eyes of Irumyuui, Voh and Reg & His Interference Unit has been stuck in my head rent free for 5 months now. I'm happy with either OST winning.

I typically have to pick and choose which songs I'm listening to from the S1-3 OSTs, due to the number of rearrangements or reuse of motifs. I do enjoys Sawanos vocal tracks more and Kohta doesn't have anything as iconic as Youseebiggirl, I'll probably listen to a higher percentage of the S4 tracks on their albums because the different types of tracks.

    Also, on the Judge vote versus the fan vote thing. In terms of video games, I would always prefer a player's vote because the votes in the game awards go to a heavily western Industry professional and journalist decision, which is skewed because those guys are obviously going to give more to their colleagues versus games that actually deserve awards, and of course all of their tastes and sensibilities are included. It's also just easier to quantify in games as you generally can feel what games have the most quality. I would agree with anime and movies being more judge based then fan based because so much anime comes out in a year and the best gems tend not to be the most heavily pushed in marketing, or made by the top companies, nor are they the long runners. In spite of that, the ones most people watch will be the ones that are getting the most exposure. The long runners, the super animes, the hype Juggernauts. It just makes it harder to credit to the really great shows, if they didn't garner enough attention.

    Should do an elector's college version for the Awards Show. Pick about 100 people from all aspects of the Anime and Japanese entertainment industry and have them select their favorites. Then have those collected and have a panel of 10 industry insiders plus 1 fan representative like Gigguk or Anime man or Nuxanor those with significant pedigree or influence. Those 11 votes would be the final judgement and there could be votes to exclude certain anime from certain categories like demon slayer from fantasy because it's supernatural not fantasy. In addition there could be a pre curated list for the categories so the voters can know which anime are in which category. Sometimes voters go off what's the top of their head not what they actually like. For example you could ask someone what the best fantasy Ghibli movie is and 90% would say Howl's or Spirited away because those are the most well known, but there's Kiko's Delivery Service, Tales from Earthsea and so many more amazing fantasy Ghibli movies that are better representations of what fantasy is

      The thing is anime fans are different from some mediums like gaming or music, to vote objectively on such a sporadic medium is also a bit...

    Normies r almost always gonna win. They barely got any taste except 4 when they branch out and expand their anime journey. Sadly I don’t watch much anime much anymore, kinda like Joey. But I do occasionally watch some anime like a few series a season. The only time I really watch a lot of anime is when I do so with my brothers. We binge like 15 different anime series over the weekend this season when we’re all off of work. Just keeping up the the animes coming out this season. Ngl a lot of anime this season is actually good compared to recent years. A lot of shounen anime 4 me has died. Seen a few seen them all mostly maybe different setting but very similar plots or storyline. Dropped jujutsu kaisen, demon slayer, boku no hero, and definitely not boruto. One main reason why I’ve dropped alot of anime really is that I kinda just grew up and need to focus on life rn, and anime is rarely fun to watch anymore unless with my bros and we all like the show. Still have like over a hundred on my to watch list, kinda procrastinating watching anime in lieu of real life situations tho.

    Rather than saying over half of us skip the ED's, it's probably better to say that we skip over half the ED's. There is always that *one* anime that has an ed which is worthwhile letting the episode remain running to hear (after all, it's not like the next episode is ready until next week anyway). Like this season I think the "self hug - big love" song is surprisingly good of an ED for the show it is stuck to. And a couple other shows I get in the mood to watch their ed depending on how their episode ended, but usually skip.

Since we did not get to watch it live, the amound of ad's where a bit overkill ( every 7 minutes). We skipped through the damn thing after gotten half over it because of annoyence.

    The Orbital Children was honestly absolutely great, I've already rewatched multiple times. It's really sad hearing Garnt say the original anime category had no competition for Lycoris because I really feel it should have been in the running. I haven't watched Lycoris so maybe it's just that good, but TOC honestly deserves some love. A well paced piece focused around exploring current existential issues such as AI and climate change that the director felt were neglected in the space. It had a cool art style, decent characters + character development. I feel like it's only crime was being posted to netflix, therefore it ends up a dead on arrival anime.

    Also, Crunchyroll was bought by Sony in 2021. So, they are an American company owned by a Japanese company. That could influence it too.
