OnionKnightRises said: Kagami said: No you still didn't. Your avoiding my question and repeating your point. BNHA won because people think its the best. You agree people are being genuine with this. How is CR not labelling it properly if people voting genuinly think its the best. I already said that too, popularity doesn't always equate to being the best. The awards are labeled "best", what's being shown is "most popular", and "most popular" is not an accurate way of determining what's "best". All a popularity poll proves is what's popular. All of what you've asked I've answered, regardless of whether you agree or not So they are voting genuinely for what they think is the best, but that doesn't actually mean the poll is legimate because the people voting, despite voting genuinely what they think the best is... isnt the best? Ngl man. 99% of seasonal dont deserve to be on the voting nor would they get the votes. Like the oscars, no point in nominating 200 things. |

GiHielgi said: So MHA awards for another year. No sorayori, no comedy award, best movie MHA movie (lol), best ongoing Dragon ball super. My conclusion and from most of everyone watching, popularity awards. Sora Yori would have absolutely no chance realisticly. If it did, it would have broken the mold like made in abyss. |

Ngl man. 99% of seasonal dont deserve to be on the voting nor would they get the votes. Like the oscars, no point in nominating 200 things. It's more like the results not matching the process. If I fry an egg, I'll end up with a fried egg, but I don't think it should be labeled as anything more than a fried egg, even if other egg dishes probably taste very similar. If I claimed it was anything more than a fried egg, that's me misleading whoever's eating it. That's not their fault, that's on me. I should just have called it a fried egg, even if the results were acceptable. That creates problems that shouldn't really have existed in the first place. Despite how I don't exactly disagree with the criticisms towards the CR awards, I'm still quite annoyed that these topics popup all the time, and that could be at least somewhat avoided. Most people wouldn't actually have a leg to stand on if this was just labeled as just a popularity poll. People wouldn't feel like CR is speaking for the community if that were the case. Also, I agree on that last sentence. The anime community is insanely susceptible to recency bias. Kinda surprised Devilman won, most people binged it in January |
 |
| @OnionKnightRises - Yeah. Like my opinion is sorta like: Why nominate magical girl site? One example. It has absolutely no chance at all. I love anime, but when I look at seasonal I realize most will be forgotten within a year. |
|
| Literally the only things I agreed with are VE at animation (thank god) and Mamoru for VA performance. I HATED the shows that god the love this year (I disliked Megalo Box, Jojos, Aggretsuko; didn't think kakegurui or MHA should have even qualified). However, I will try to be civil because people are already up in arms. HOWEVER, The one snup that I saw that nobody is talking about: HOW TF DID 3GATSU NO LION NOT WIN BEST CONTINUING SERIES? It felt like that category literally only existed to give praise to how truly spectacular that show is, and still nothing. There is upsetting (the anime awards) and insulting (this snub) While I am at it, I was upset when Maquia wasn't nominated, but extremely disappointed that the HeroAka movie won. That was mind boggling to me, who has both Liz and Maquia as 10/10s; can anyone explain how it could have happened without MHA awards just coming through again? |

I love anime, but when I look at seasonal I realize most will be forgotten within a year. Yeah they actually do add a lot of filler shows, don't they? The top 3 anime of any season is typically really predictable, even if the order of those 3 might not be. Probably isn't that hard for each year either. There's no dark horse wins or anything, most shows that seem like a shocking win would probably place in the top 5 of their year regardless DangoDa1kazoku said: While I am at it, I was upset when Maquia wasn't nominated, but extremely disappointed that the HeroAka movie won. I feel like despite Maquia being as well received as it's been, not as many people have actually seen it. It went under a lot of people's radar |

Take care of yourself |

How is CR not labelling it properly if people voting genuinly think its the best. You were answered already. People voted for anime like MHA just because they didn't know the other shows on the lists. They didn't even bother checking out the others to assess their picks for the categories. It's just a "hey, I watched that one so lemme pick it rather than does this really deserve this in comparison?" It's not a hard concept to grasp. They should just call it "The most popular film award" (cause it certainly wasn't the best) Let's just stop pretending that we're appreciating something for being the "best" when it's simply cause that's all people watched I think you guys are getting oddly bent out of shape for something really petty. Really petty. Not to mention, how do you even know voters didn't watch other anime? I generally don't comprehend why this bugs people so much. Who really cares. |
|
| Well overall I'm alright with the results. Did not care for them too much since I knew they are just a popularity contest but that makes me even happier that Devilman won AOTY, very well deserved. Other than that I'm glad Jojo won best character Design, Violet won best Animation und Yuasa won best Director (clearly the right choices imo). The only Awards I was a little mad about were best villain (AFO is not a very great Villain) and best Movie (have not seen the BNHA Movie but I was salty about this category anyway since Maquia was not nominated) |

It went under a lot of people's radar I mean... yea, but I don’t understand what that has to do with a nomination. I would have begrudgingly accepted it losing, but the nominees are predecided so they just missed it. Also: 1. Not a lot of people cared about fireworks, but it still got a nomination and 2. I barely remembered FLCL, Tonegawa, Honda-San, Aggretsuko, after the rain, etc, but they showed up (and more than a couple times, too!) |
| Art is dead, and we killed it. |
| I just hope there's award for genre like action, fantasy, comedy etc. |
| It doesn't matter if you like LoGH,Monster etc.If you are a jobless or college/school dropout living in your mom basement, you are still an unintelligent loser. Taste in anime does not make you a better person. |
| Oh, YoriMoi didn't win anything :( but Violet Evergarden won animation :). I'm seriously interested in Zombieland Saga now. |
 |
| Crunchyroll doesn't exist... (chr limit) |
 |
| Best character design - Golden Wind Literally the only atrocious thing about this anime. It's not like those awards held any authority. |

Jese23 said: Gorochu said: I just hope there's award for genre like action, fantasy, comedy etc. They took out comedy award. Kagami is defending CR hard wow, good job. Also, happy Jojo's won something. Someone has too. If not me, then who!? |
|
| Sad to see SoraYori didn't make the cut There's some I agree with, some I don't agree with, some I downright don't understand I'm also surprised that in spite of the hype both received, Pop Team Epic and Aggretsuko didn't win anything. |
 |
| I'm from europe so I only saw half of the stream before I fell asleep, here's a small rant about two winners Franxx won best OP and Mai from Bunnygirl won best girl what the actual hell I like Franxx but the opening was awful, the "DARLING UNMEI GAAAAA" is still buzzing in my head after hearing the short clip, my memory was trying to get rid of this song and now it's stuck again thanks crunch. Mai, Mai won hoooooow, she wasn't even the best girl in her own show! it's most likely just because the show is popular and/or teenage losers with one smillion IQ wishing to be her boy toy, but I still can't believe how this garbage seasonal waifu that will be forgotten immediatly once the next hotness arrives won now here's a little tangent I have about Lilly being a nominee as best girl, don't get me wrong, I agree that Lilly is a girl but thing is, she was not the best girl, if anything that spot should have been for Tae or Saki this might sound like a conspiracy here, but I get the feeling they only did this because Lilly is trans and they wanted to have transgender representation which is not a bad thing, but, fuck man, saying Lilly was the best girl of ZLS is just straight up incorrect, SAKI DESERVED TO WIN (well not really I actually wanted Hina from Hinamatsuri to win but she wasn't nominated soooo) so yeah, this was garbage once again what a surprise I can't even remember most of things that won It's nice to know from this thread that Devilman won though |
Piromysl said: Best character design - Golden Wind Literally the only atrocious thing about this anime. It's not like those awards held any authority. how dare, Jojo is fabulous, it's just that this season looks really awful, what the actual fuck happened during production? are they just saving budget for a specific scene? is it just whiplash because part 4 had a different art style? I'm so angery about this, Vento Aureo is my favourite part and it's turning out to be the worst in the animated line up |
| I am happy Devilman got AOTY and Masaaki Yuasa got recognition. |
| Not bad, to be honest. I mean, Devilman won the AOTY. |
 |
| I have been hating Crunchyroll Anime awards for the past two years but not this one, it's not like I'm completely satisfied with the results but I not quite disappointed of the fact the few anime won their respective awards. I was surprised because Devilman Crybaby got the AOTY. It very well deserves that award. Its true that there were again My hero academia all over the list again but the Best Scene was well deserved because that scene of All might fighting with all his strength gave me chills. And we got our best girl Sakurajima Mai Aka Bunny girl senpai but yes the movie? Umm what to say its just people blindly go for popular shows. But yeah I'm not completely disappointed with the results this year, some were well deserved and some were based on popular choice like bnha like Deku being the best boy like last time Todoroki I hope this changes. But can't blame it on Crunchyroll lol because of bnha's popularity it has won the award and what's wrong with Deku being the best boy. And thankgod Violet Evergarden won the best Animation atleast it won something. This years Crunchyroll Anime awards was nice because Michelle Phan was there! |
   I want you to be happy. I want you to laugh a lot. I don’t know what exactly I’ll be able to do for you, but I’ll always be by your side. |
Kagami said: EcchiGodMamsterP said: another issue with polls like these is most people who vote on them are probably only watching 1-3 shows at a time, which can make the winners more so popularity than what people actually think is the best but w/e... not like anything i like the most would ever have a fraction of a chance of winning LMAO Then those shows should do better to break the mold. Big Hollywood movies and games are able to pull in votes despite what genre it is. Sora Yori for example, obviously didn't break the mold enough or more people would have noticed it. um... theres no way a show that moe is going to win anime of the year theres always gonna be the "I'm cool/manly for that" type crowd |
   |
| I totally forgot about this lol Yeah, I thought Devilman would win, it was insanely popular after all. Oh 3gatsu Ç-Ç I get it is not popular at all, but oh man D: This is the only thing that made me honestly sad :( I still want a Golden Raspberry anime award lol |

| Kinda weird the MHA movie won best movie... shounen film spin offs are usually anime original garbage. What other 2018 movies was it competing with? Also Devilman Crybaby was pretty good but definitely didn't deserve AOTY IMO. I can see why it got it, but eh. Mai winning makes me happy. |

| My Hero Academia awards II while the MHA film was very good and a really memorable experience for me to watch it in cinemas, Mirai was arguably the better film. overall the awards seemed alright, but really nothing special besides seeing your favourite show win |
tenryujii said: \\discuss the awards here big shout out to crunchyroll sponsors my hero academia for this amazing award show /s I'm so pissed that devilman: shitbaby won. It would have been better if My hero academia season 3 won even though it was lame. Devilman just is horrible and it's a fact |
| you're cool |
| Some of the best productions from 2018 even didn't get nominated. Those which was nominated couldn't bring anything... This in the context that I never watched Devilman Crybaby...maybe it's good just not in the alley of my interests. |

| Crunchyroll proves the point that anime was a mistake. Nothing new here. |
  Grant me one hour on love's most sacred shores To clasp the bosom that my soul adores, Lie heart to heart and merge my soul with yours |
| I just came here to see if the Megalo Box ED won and it didn't lmao who even still watches SnK, the hype for it seemed to die before S2 even aired |
| > BEST CONTINUING SERIES - Dragon Ball Super > ANIME OF THE YEAR - Devilman Crybaby |
 |
This Darth Vader thing wining over lieutenant Tsurumi means that people didn't watch Golden Kamuy like at all. |
| Lmao at all the people getting salty over something trivial. PsychoEkin said: The awards were good, but it pisses me off that deku won best boy. Still a better candidate than Bakucunt Katsushit. |
| So devilman won aoty even though it was pure garbage and bad writing along with the worst animation to date. Ok, i guess. The same as always, good series get sidelined while mediocre gets rewarded. Always the same thing every year. |
| I'm new. |
alshu said: This Darth Vader thing wining over lieutenant Tsurumi means that people didn't watch Golden Kamuy like at all. yea i havent watched golden kamuy i think its on my plan to watch |
 |
| The Anime Awards will always take the L there is no way they can please everybody i think they were ok. Even though My Hero did not deserve every Award it got |
| Brain Damage |
| The only thing I wanted to check out was that Made in Abyss movie (which I hoped wasn't recap bc it already finished airing a while back). I checked it out, and yeah, it was just S1 recap with a new EN narrator who was so non-descriptive you could genuinely put her voice in front of any horror/mystery/adventure movie trailer and it'll still fit. :( I couldn't care less about CR awards this year since there was less selection and variety than last year's. At least they didn't fuck up like the Oscars in which they wanted to host some of the awards during commercial break (until backlash changed their mind last minute) |
 |
| The awards are yet again a popularity contest for the most part but I am genuinely impressed that these people actually voted for Devilman Crybaby as the Anime Of The Year considering how overrated VEG was solely based on it's PV. |

Isn't that implying that the people who voted aren't MAL users? Since a great amount of them probably are. |
