News culture Attack on Titan, Jujutsu Kaisen or Ranking of Kings… Who will be voted anime of the year?
Like the Oscars for movies or the Game Awards for video games, animated series also have their awards ceremony. It is Crunchyroll, an SVOD platform specializing in anime, which is the organizer of such an appointment.
Summary
- A simple duel-like competition?
- The best anime of the year, but not only
A simple duel-like competition?
In a short thirty-second video posted yesterday, Crunchyroll declared voting open for the 2022 edition of the Anime Awards. Like the Oscars for movies and Game Awards for video games, this ceremony aims to reward animated series across several categories. And like his two colleagues, the most interesting category to scrutinize and that of Best anime of the year : on the program, two behemoths will compete for the place of n°1: part 1 of the fourth and final season of The attack of the Titans against the second part of season 1 of Jujutsu Kaisen, the best-selling manga in Japan. If this confrontation acts as a fratricidal duel for MAPPA, which is behind the animation of these two works, the other guests could cause trouble. Note the presence of Ranking of King, animated that has recently been talked about and whose animation is managed by Wits (The attack of the Titans, the first three seasons). Sonny Boy is produced by Madhouse (Takt. Op.), former parent company of the founder of Mappa.
