More about the Anime Awards

This event made its debut in 2017 and garnered a lot of attention across the globe. A panel of judges selects the nominees for a particular category. There are two rounds of selection, and then a final list is created. A new category is often added, or an existing one is removed based on the popularity of the categories. Fans then cast their votes, and the winners are announced during the event.

The previous Anime Awards were streamed live across numerous channels, except the 2022 event. That being said, fans are excited for the 2023 Anime Awards since it will be a unique event featuring some of the best artists in the anime and manga industry. Stay tuned for more updates on the upcoming Anime Awards, as more information will be revealed as the year progresses.
