Really disappointing that AoT won so many awards, seeing how underwhelming it was, though it's music award is well earned. Space Brothers should have got AOTY instead.

Also, how did KNIM get an award for best screenplay, both the manga and anime were garbage.

At least Sushio got a well earned award for character design.

Gotta wondering about something though. Is this an award for Best shows or Most popular shows? Because the way i see it, the latter seems to be more likely.

And Araki Tetsurou for best directing really? Those hamfisted and heavily padded-out scenes on each eps of Shingeki?

Not surprised about the winners. Glad for Uchuu Kyoudai and Shingeki no Kyojin. And of course the guy for the character designs in Kill la Kill. They're all great.

This is VERY misleading. If you actually check their profile of Reiko Yoshida, Kimi no Iru Machi doesn't even get mentioned as her signature work. The main ones they highlight are: K-ON!, Girls & Panzer, Ojarumaru, Neko no Ongaeshi.

Third impact.
Anno must've said something like
"I can't do it.There is no way I can do it" before doing his voice acting.Miyazaki must've forced him, lol.

So Studio Ghibli was going to win from it's auto hype anyways same with Shingeki.

So I'll accept both runner ups as the actual best of the year.

I agree on Attack on Titan winning, even though there should've been more variation.

All I care for is Anno winning an award for voice acting though.

Congratulations Anno!

That is a sad list if you ask me. I'm happy for Shingeki no Kyojin winning, but they could have added at least awards based on genres so that more anime would have been mentioned.
5 main aspects I base my ratings on:
1. Did DramaEnthusiast make a thread about it?
2. Is it better than Breaking Bad?
3. Did MellowJello recommend the shit out of it?
4. Has it caused a (very entertaining) shitstorm on MAL?
5. Is it actually good?

Scratch the fifth point, it's not very relevant...

SnK deserved everything it got. I haven't saw the Miyazaki film or Space Brothers (yet). I plan on checking them both out though.

KLK was well deserved also.

I don't find SnK bad like most of the people I just don't think it deserves everything it gets when it's a rip off of muv luv alternative visual novel even if the author admitted to it being inspired by MLA the fans are making SnK into too much of a success that visual novels don't reach no matter the quality. I guess I'll try Space brothers sometime soon.

That movie was shame for Madoka Magica series. It didn't have actual story, it was just about fanservice and that movie if anything had unnecessary scenes.

SNK won so many awards for no reason, I guess being popular means everything nowadays! It only deserved the music award imo, but then again I haven't heard every ost this year so I'm not sure.

I know nothing about the other winners so I can't tell...
