Ever wonder why certain anime sweep award shows while others that tug at your heartstrings get overlooked? Join me as I dissect the Crunchyroll Awards' most unexpected wins and snubs, leaving no stone unturned in the realms of music, comedy, and art direction. From grappling with Jujutsu Kaisen's double take in the opening and ending sequences to questioning Attack on Titan's musical triumph over shows where tunes take center stage, this episode is a rollercoaster ride through the highs and lows of anime accolades. I also give a shout-out to the Lore'd to Death podcast, where we geeked out over the Persona series, and delve into the audience's adoration for Anya from Spy Family – the character that's captured our collective protective instincts.
This week's episode isn't just about the winners; it's about understanding what makes an anime truly remarkable. I lay bare my astonishment at Spy Family's comedic win over the hilarious underdog Mashle and ponder whether Hell's Paradise was robbed of the art direction crown by Demon Slayer. As we close the chapter, we'll also consider the curious distinction between art direction and cinematography, celebrating Jujutsu Kaisen's well-earned praise in the latter while sparking an insightful conversation about the intricate dance between visuals and storytelling in anime. Whether you're an otaku or just anime-curious, this episode promises to leave you with a deeper appreciation for the artform and maybe even a few additions to your must-watch list.
