exactly. people kept raving on s2 but im like eh there were pacing problems and if i wanted to watch effects spectecles i would have put DBZ on lol. however, it is the current hype right now so yea it was going to win. I do agree with garnt that it shouldnt been allowed both in movie AND tv categories. should have picked one lane.
@@phgamer4393 1. Comparing DS effect spectacles to DBZ is laughable, at best. 2. S2 was pretty solid. It didn't deserve, like 1-2 of the awards, but it was still pretty good, and I didn't have an issue with the pacing at all.
@@troydennis96 Yeah, but I could've sworn that I saw Mugen Train in tv show categories when it should've only been in the best film category. That being said I don't understand the hype behind Kaisen especially when you compare basic bitch action manga character designs to ones like Oddtaxi where the character designs aren't only unique, but the in-world explanation for the character designing is unique.
This is one of those weird things where I agree with him that its not fair to compare movie production with series production in the same category but also if we are comparing them then obviously demon slayer wins animation because if there is one thing demon slayer does better then everything else is the animation quality. I do think Mushoku Tensei should have won an award but I also know that there was a lot of mixed animosity towards Mushoku Tensei at the beginning for like the first 6ish episodes where it got almost as much hate as it did praise because soo many people hated Rudeus and thought he was another incel character with poor objectifying views on women and, obviously as you watch the show you understand that was the entire point and how he had to grow as a character from being that, but it immediately put off soo many people that dropped the show. The point I'm getting to is everyone knows the awards are a popularity contest and the early reception to Mushoku Tensei hurt that popularity quite a bit.
"The only animes I have watched are Demon Slayer, Attack on Titan, and JuJutsu Kaisen, I will now proceed to vote to my fullest abilities." - 80% of CR users.
@@Judokasting while only watching three anime is not something to be proud of, not watching shows just because they're "normie bait" or whatever isn't something to be proud of, either. While both Demon Slayer and Jujutsu Kaisen are simply average Shounen stories carried by superb animation, Attack on Titan is a legitimately well written action thriller, so you should give it a chance if it sounds like something you might enjoy even a little. If not, then don't.
@@tomshapira9368 I don't really do the whole normie bait thing, i just prefer my anime less "action-y" and such. I watch other things for my action/blood/gore what have you, fix. So anime of those type never appealed.
I watched those plus Wonder Egg priority, which was pretty outstanding while everyone calls it bad, and Fumetsu no Anata e/To your Eternity, which everyone calls amazing while I think it is outstandingly garbage. And Nagatoro was great
@@tomshapira9368 Attack on titan's story would be interesting, if I didn't get spoiled the entire story on twitter or youtube by the horrible community. So no for me the story has no thrills, plot twists or suspense
@@dragonaccountnur1643 thats exactly where you are wrong, low or average budget with good coordination and artists almost always produces better quality than a large budget with bad coordination and a large amount of unexperienced staff. Like I Said, OPM had average budget and is one of the best modern animes in terms of visuals
@@Rahnonymous the MC is trash, a bad person in the beggining and a pervert (well, a lot of characters are perverts and bad people in this anime), it was mostly because of that since a lot of antis choose this anime as target
I am gonna get flamed for this but after all the hype that Mushoku was getting, I am kinda disappointed, well not disappointed because it's great, I am just not seeing what about it was worthy of best anime, like people were saying. Still, I'd argue it deserved best fantasy and animation (for a series). That was a robbery but his is CR Awards, that's to be expected.
@ғɪʟʟ 1ɴ ᴛ҉ ʜ3 ʙʟᴀɴᴋs I loved Mushoku Tensei and am honestly in favor of it being the best anime of the year, but I can get that it's not for everyone, it had a lot of hype going for it because of it being one of the original big isekai, and honestly the character writing was just a breath of fresh air
@@Gamersunite2506 breath of fresh air? Creepy fat virgin reincarnated to a creepy molesty child with magic? And boom he goes on a fucking adventure because of some magic thing separates everyone? Shit is cliche even more so than other ones. God I hated reading the novel for the thing and was so happy it never got an anime till now.
@@Needler13 you are telling me slime is any better? another power fantasy with an op protag, but its actually clash of clans with stupid power scaling further down the road, beats mushoku tensei, one of the best character developement stories in the light novel world?
Man, i was laughing so hard when Garnt was forgetting that Demon Slayer was in a category and ended up winning everytime. That happened way too often lmao.
it probably shouldn't have been nominated honestly since it was released last year in Japan, and I also don't understand why a movie was allowed to be nominated for a lot of those categories
@@cronotriggered4314 Well I don't have a problem with that personally. UFOtable puts the same amount of budget on 8 episodes of the entertainment district arc as the entire mugen train movie. Atleast that's how it felt like to me. So that's just classic Ufotable right there. They just have insane budget for all of their shows, especially demon Slayer, and it looks like their quality is rising even further judging from season 2.
@@alexicon2006 I’ll never get how anyone likes that series for anything besides animation. For me personally, only scenes with Rengoku in it peaked my interest.
@@SnowHelation It's really just preference. I think of demon Slayer as a sweet and simple story that is not unique in any way and doesn't try to be. For me it does what it wants to do perfectly and that's why there are so many fans of that series. Those who don't like it prefer something a little more complex than DS, which is also pretty understandable. But for me the simplicity and basic nature of it is part of its charm, and I don't think of that as a bad thing. Of course it's all subjective at the end of the day. I'm not talking about things like animation, I'm just talking about what you prefer in a series besides that.
Garnt should stream more. For a script heavy RUclipsr, he's surprisingly good at thinking of shit to say on the fly on top of being an amazing storyteller.
An antagonist isn’t a villain. The antagonist is the force that opposes the main character… so Eren can’t be an antagonist because he is the main character
But he opposes himself in many ways... He can be the antagonist, it is not impossible for the main character to be both protagonist and antagonist. There's nothing impossible in writing.
Eren is somehow impossible to put into a box. You would think he's either a hero with questionable methods making him an anti hero or a villain with good intentions but actions that are villainous making him an anti villain. But because of perspective he's neither. Also I almost consider Armen and Mikasa co-MCs in season four with Eren being his own thing
Just a friendly PSA here: do NOT, under ANY circumstances, snort salt. It's 1) an incredibly stupid idea; 2) an extremely awful experience. A friend of mine did it in front of me when we were like 14 and I honestly thought he might die right there lol. Don't do it.
Bruh I remember as a young kid my classmates would snort Pica Limon, which is like little packets of lemon flavored salt. They cracked me up, I'm surprised they never ended up at the hospital over it. In my early 20s I knew this coke head, and once saw him crush sweet tarts and snorted them when he was out of drugs.
When he was surprised ppl liked the music of demon slayer, I was more surprised he forgot how popular that demon slayer ost got in s1. Yeah, the rankings is for last year... but anyone voting is obviously just going to see demon slayer in a music category and vote it either way - disregarding that its the sequel that is listed.
I think a lot of what tripped Garnt up is that he he had Demonslayer as a movie in his mind and mentally eliminated it from contention/nomination just based off that. Like a lot of his mistakes was just based on him being careless and not even bothering to double-check who the nominees are.
They don't want to reckon with the grim reality of a truly flawed character and not a heroic badass who "only reluctantly" does all the traditional hero things while brooding every once in a while.
They only want "safe" flaws like _Izuku being such a soft sensitive baby cinnamon roll uwu,_ not anything that even the story itself portrays as being morally repugnant that the character must overcome. Endeavor being ashamed of the horrible treatment he subjected his family to and is now legitimately trying to become a better person? *LITERALLY ABUSE APOLOGISM, WTF HORIKOSHI YOU PROBLEMATIC FUCK-*
I think part of it is also a change in demographics. I wouldn't be surprised if there's an older crowd that likes to see more grey in morality while other generally younger crowds are peeved by that kind of stuff
Vivy and 86 not getting any awards is straight robbery. The fact that neither of them were nominated for best director is suspicious as all heck. I have never seen an anime with better directing than 86, you could write a thesis breaking down all the symbolism and imagery.
Hot take: Movies should have their own separate categories or not be nominated for things like animation. Even the My Hero Academia movie could have won if it was nominated and that unfair to the TV Anime’s
Demon slayer s2 already surpass their own movie animation. A tv series beat a movie quality like u said. How is this possible?ufotable is an exception to this logic.
I'm still dumbfounded people compare TV anime to animated movies, it's a completely different field, like we don't pit series like breaking bad against movies like Fight Club right? Because it's a completely different creation process, completely different pacing, funding, etc. I really don't understand why ppl at large mix animated movies and series in their award shows, MaL rankings or all time rankings, by all accounts it doesn't make sense
@@catastrofyy Bad takes +L bro Demon slayer S2 was released Winter 2022 what are you talking about? +Dead logic cuz you’re trying to defend Demon slayer just because The Season 2 has Great Animation. But don’t forget that The Only thing that is nominated is The Mugen train arc
@@rexelberncabillo8306 what 2 years difference can make between a movie and tv series? This comment thread said itself that movie budget is on whole different level and still to this day no other studio can't even surpass fate ubw animation (shonen series) which came out in 2013 except thanos meme, "I do it myself" lmao.
Hot take, but I honestly think Mushoku Tensei"s animation was overall better than Mugen Train. Studio Bind made not just the action or character designs appealing, but the entire world and effects as well. Every scene is a background wallpaper and every movement is fluid and beautiful. Mugen Train had great animation, but I didn"t feel amazed and in awe throughout the entire movie. It looked fucking great, but not as great as Mushoku Tensei imo.
'movie lvl animation against tv series?' I felt his pain, but ufotable heard his cry... and made the entertainment district arc with the grin of a sadist on their faces
Thank you so much for recognizing Fruits Basket as deserving of a win. It's really unfortunate that it's been praised so highly and rose to the top of the "best anime of all time" charts on every anime list website, only for it not to win a single deserving award. Really hoped it would have been nominated for anime of the year too. Oh well, it will always have a permanent place in my heart as the anime that made me want to become a better person.
In my opinion definitely should have won it. Fruits basket had me on the edge of my seat every single Monday. It truly is a beautiful story with a tragic and happiness aspect mixed in. I’m OK with who won it I also love that anime but I definitely would’ve wanted fruit basket to win.
Its hard when there's so much of these romcom series which is more watched by people. Glad it won best drama last year tho. And tohru is best waifu in my book.
@@sammybutler3027 agreed, it wasnt bad or mediocre but it lacked the flair of kumoko. I can imagine any other VA as eren, but I can't imagine any one else for kumoko. But it's a popularity contest so the most popular anime is gonna win.
Honestly Demon Slayer S1 was a 9/10, Demon Slayer Mugen Train was a 8/10, and JJK was 7/10, but they just ran the awards. MT was a 10/10, and AoT is complicated because it was a half season.
The gradual unmaking of Gigguk over the past few weeks as he realizes that no one cares about Mushoku Tensei has been both heartbreaking and exhilarating.
It's too bad because Mushoku Tensei is a beloved series, people talk about it constantly and you'd be hard pressed to go somewhere and it not be brought up as top tier show. And yet it wins nothing. It's like as long as you're talking about Mushoku Tensei everybody is onboard that it's the best isekai of all ti- *DID YOU SAY MUGEN TRAIN ARC?!* But I guess that's what happens when the voting base is made of 90% of people who watch three animes in their life.
@@murfssette3680 ... 💀💀 That was a trashass comparison, you know that right? Like shows/movies with MCs doing war crimes is pretty fucking popular in the West, dawg. The difference between Mushoku and AOT along with these western shows/movies, these characters are criticized IN THE SHOW/MOVIE AND BY FANS/CONSUMERS. Some fans even go as far to call Eren an antagonist. The main character at 17-18 died masturbating to lolis. Quite literally the definition of a pedophile. The difference is is that the show sweeps it under the rug and even goes so far as to justify his behavior as a hobby like reading manga and watching anime that are considered hobbies. He's not criticized much from the show outside of the realm of being called a pervert, but like...... no one knows He's actually a 17-18 year old disguised as a 10 year old (but at that point he would be considered 28 if you combine both of his lives ages). A 10 year old pining for girls his age can come off as just child's play or occasionally perverted depending on what he does, but he manipulates these girls for the sake of his harem. Manipulate is the sugarcoded word for grooming in this case. It's not acknowledged in the show at all, and it seems avid fans justify it as "they're not real people so it's okay." Some fans even justified it by saying "it was normal in the time period, so he's not doing anything illegal." 💀💀 Some of y'all are actually sick. The series itself says more about the author of the light novel and a lot of the fans much more than the characters in itself.
Did Garnt forget that Mushoku Tensei wasn’t even a nominee for the categories he thought it would win 😂 Crunchyroll awards have always been a joke though
No offense but best character design goes to Jujutsu Kaisen is so undeserved and this coming from shounen fans like me. Shounen character design isn't gonna be unique because a formula to it and many shounen will look exactly like each other and that's the genre.
I am more salty with the fact that the judge have like 70% of the decision AND Eren have both Antagonist and Protagonist nomination. People there don't know what Antagonist Protagonist means What a circus
Honestly, this is a win for me. Bojji got Best Boy and Oddtaxi got best director. At least two of my favorite anime series of this year got the love it deserved
Hey sorry this is kinda random, but I've been recommended Odd Taxi and I'm in one of those spots where I'm hesitating to watch something new. Can you tell me what in general you liked about it? (I also agree that Bojji deserved best boy)
@@maysalem59 We see the lives of passengers their flaws, internal conflict, and how they'll deal with it or what conclusion they'll decide to make. While I was watching the show, the characters that you think have nothing to do with each other do in some way or other. And I think the show does a quite a fantastic job with the dialogue along with characters having so much depth to them. If you watch the first season of Durarara or watched movies like Taxi Driver then you might like this show.
Spoilers for ranking of the kings, don't read this unless you're caught up to the anime Ranking of the kings really took a nose dive for me after bosse died. So many plotlines that don't make sense, mirror tells daida to kill aepis. Later on aepis defends the mirror, we find out aepis is in debt to the mirror, still he betrays the mirror to save the Queen (for a bit). Then aepis gets bonked, tries to kill boji finds out boji could absolutely wreck him says "oh jk", then lets them go. Then the queen comes and heals aepis even though he openly says he will betray her again. So many convoluted plot lines from bosse, miranjo, aepis and everyone else. Shit doesn't make sense anymore
Mushoku Tensei not winning anything hurt me in the soul. Not only because I loved the show, but from a detail-oriented perspective and such, the amount of effort put into Mushoku Tensei was just unlike any other. As an animator it also really sucked to see it didn't win best animation, but I guess that's why I didn't really pay attention to the Crunchyrolls Awards ever :/
I haven't watched Mushoku Tensei (yet) but even I thought that it should have won SOMETHING. Seen very little of it, and it still bothered me that it hasn't won a single award. But it's the Crunchyroll anime awards, it is what it is ig (at least we get to meme the shit outta it)
the show has great moments and genuinely great writing and animation, but it's one of those shows where i just can't stand it because of the constant fanservice and blatant just pedophilia, it makes me really sad too because other than that it is a fantastic show
I’m just crawling all over RUclips trying to find someone who fully recognize the greatness of 86’s directing, animation, script, music, sound, CG, and literally EVERYTHING. I think it’s safe to say that I have never seen an anime made with so much love from the production team. Everyone are pretty much the best in their field and has done their absolute best to bring the show to the next level.
13:23 I have never laughed so hard. I was just eating a donut and when Garnt started doing these noises and a whale appeared I literally spit towards my monitor. The first time ever in my 22 years of life I've managed to do a thing like this.
How 86 didn't win Best Score was crazy but what was even more crazy was how it wasn't even nominated for best director considering its a fucking light novel or ED, which is one of the greatest ED songs I've ever heard.
Obsidie 11 I did, and I like it. Sawano is a great artist but I’m more biased to Kajira since I grew up hearing most of her work (without realizing it) and I love a lot of LiSA’s songs.
@@Robert_H. uh there's a reason for ecchi in mushoku tensei its to show how rudy is a bad person and then we watch him change in part two it would seem like you only watched the first episode
@WasNeverBrandon what's funny about what I said? If you think Horimiya was better than Fruba, it's because you didn't watch Fruba. Only reasonable explanation. Horimiya wasn't even a good adaptation
@@waydebelgrave-haynes855I agree with that, fruba is way better then Horimiya . Horimiya is just a Comedy but with a lil bit of romance in it. There's not much plot going on, and yeah it is not a good adaptation cuz they rushed it way too much.
Attack on Titan is one of the only anime I recommend to non anime fans, especially since I saw the final season (part 1 specifically), holy shit it's amazing, and well deserved for all these awards.
I'm blown away that Vivy and 86 didn't win a single award let alone animation.. Mushouku very much deserved best animation and best fantasy. I really got pissed when Demon slayer guy won best score when there was AoT and 86 with Sawano and Yamamoto
@@kobil316SH how to make to a mid story shounen like ds that people will call it a masterpiece 1. Have a midstory 2. Have godly fight animation 3.

@Zold That’s preposterous! There were a bunch of good anime these past few years. And even if there weren’t good anime, that doesn’t there weren’t anime to like and enjoy. If you didn’t watch anything you enjoyed, well, I’m sad for you. Maybe you just don’t like anime in general anymore.
Mugen Train wasn't even supposed to be in the nominations since it wasn't even from last year, this gets you asking what was done with this year's awards
@@kurimiaisukurimu Because they released a TV series version of the movie, so they counted it as an anime that aired in 2021, instead of just counting it as a movie.
i was so heart broken when fruits basket season 3 didn't win best drama or best romance it was literally so good. The voice actors/actresses did such a good job and the animators did amazing. The story line was so good and usually i prefer to read manga but the fruits basket reboot was so much better than the manga in my opinion and it completely blew me away. I was literally crying tears of joy by the end of it and it is probably one of my favorite anime to this day. Fruits basket also taught me very valuable life lessons and the character development was SO DAMN GOOD. I feel like one thing that made me really satisfied was that in the end everybody ended up with somebody and that there were no loose strings to tie up. A lull in the sea was an anime where i thought the animation was beautiful but the storyline was not. The anime had such a good potential but i think that they made it too much into a high school cringey romance series. One thing that really bothered me throughout the series was how the supporting characters got no attention. Fruits basket really got everything down though. They got the dark/deep backstory's and making the antagonist lovable and not only focusing only loving somebody but also in fruits basket the supporting characters literally made the show a whole. I don't think i would have enjoyed it at all without the details with the supporting characters. Literally fruits basket took Tohru's 2 friends and made them into characters where you could truly understand them and honestly i dont think that half of the creators put that much work into supporting cast.
Straight facts, i love horimiya but the second half of it has nothing on fruba in terms of romantic development and def best drama. But of course that generic slice of life that gets popular every year then forgotten the next beats an anime that was so beloved and criticality loved it got a reboot despite the manga being long over. No hate on those generics i love most of them but lmk if you actually think komi, nagatoro, or even dress up darling will be remotely as well crafted by their endings as fruba they are almost even different genres
I do agree that Mushoko Tensei probably had better animation than the Demon Slayer movie, but the whole "Movie quality animation vs. tv series animation" statement doesn't really hold up anymore given Demon Slayer season 2 being absolutely insanely animated and is honestly better animated than the movie.
That's only because the animation studio got a bigger budget after the success of the 1st season. Mushoku tensei is a brand new anime from a brand new company. So it's no the same at all.
@mochoman312 games No. Mushoku Tensei is a new anime from a new company, it would get an average of $200k per episode. Especially since it's a new studio. In comparison to Demon Slayer that's had millions of dollars in revenue sales and profit earnings since its been out for a little over a year and because of the movie's earnings. These things help fund the next season. So in a sense it is different.
I'm kinda sad Sk8 didn't win the character design or ED award. And Fruits Basket....I'm happy Honda got some recognition, despite not winning. You're best girl in my heart Tohru.
Skate was my pick for best character design. The design artist put jojo levels of color theory application into creating these characters and everyone looks so unique. Honestly it should've won.
Tohru Honda is the epitome of best girl I don't know if the judges actually watched all shows, but I can conclude one of two possibilities: 1. They haven't actually seen FruBa 2. They are fucking blind
Best characters designs? Sure they were colourful but that was it, they looked generic asf aside from that, and the best ED? Not even close not when shows like 86, ReZero or Mushoku Tensei existed
"Is unfair that demon slayer comes with movie level quality animation against tv anime" then there is season 2 wich has animation even better than the movie and it's tv anime, so next year will be again Attack on Titan and Demon Slayer awards.
Yes exactly, garnt was just salty. Which understandable most of us are salty in some regards, my favourite anime of 2021 world trigger wasn't even considered
@@jello6845 The only thing that I think is highly wrong is best film, not because Demon Slayer doesn't deserve it but because it aired in 2020, how It get nominated for best film in 2021 I don't get it, also best fantasy this year was Mushoku even if the protagonist is a shitty person still the story was really good, I don't know how the slime won, the second part of the second season was so boring and slow, my god.
@@HARDIK_700 Never said Aot didn't deserve that award seeing the close to none competition it had that year, also I disagree with Gintama winning the best film award, it should have been Evangelion and I say that not being a fan of Gundam and Mecha Anime, but I heard people was waiting years for that film and I can say that Gintama wasn't that different from any other season of the anime, it was the same thing and you can argue it is the father of comedy and stuff but that doesn't mean it deserve automatically the award. Honestly I was highly disappointed by the film and didn't leave me anything, even the death and sad moment was ruined by cheap comedy 10-20 or 30 minutes laters so... If I didn't watch it it will be the same as watching it, it's only a nostalgia effect, objectively speaking it's not that great and I liked Gintama, don't get me wrong, I wouldn't give less than 8 at the series in a whole but best film of the whole year? Mhhhh I don't think so, let alone the best film of the series itself, there were other films in the Gintama franchise which were better than the last one.
Me: I bet Oddtaxi is gonna get snubbed and robbed for everything, especially the big awards Oddtaxi: _wins best protagonist and best director_ Me: *I can die happy now*
I think it was, but this was when only the Mugen Train Arc was being nominated but people still lumped in the Entertainment District Arc with it cause it’s Demon Slayer.
That's why I got confused by the episode count on Crunchyroll. They had the movie as a movie and broken into like 7 episodes. But they're not labeled so people assume they're the same thing
@@KolbyML I somewhat agree, but at the same time I do see how he can be put into the antagonist category. He becomes adversary to nearly every group/person in the show. This has continued into the current season as well
@@Henry-qt3py no most of the story is told from Eren's perspective he is just the protagonist, it doesn't matter how evil his actions are the story is still told mostly from his perspective thus making him the protagonist, the antoganist is someone who opposes the protagonist, it doesn't matter how good or evil the antoganist is as long as they are opposing the protagonist then they are the antoganist, for example let's say DC made a comic series told from the perspective of the Joker then Joker would be the protagonist of that series and Batman would be the antagonist of that series since Batman is th main force opposing the Joker
@@human9073 I would say that first of all, the story isn't told from his perspective. It is mainly from an objective viewpoint to my understanding; we don't know what Eren or anyone else is thinking and this leads to all the twists we have seen throughout the series. Next, there are even many episodes not featuring Eren and further ones that don't focus on him. The people being focussed on here could be viewed as protagonists by some. Particularly, from the earlier seasons, many would view Eldia as the protagonist group with the antagonist in these seasons being the titans. As Eren seemingly betrays Eldia, he becomes the antagonist to the protagonist group. In addition, Eren can also be viewed as an antagonist to himself although this may not be as strongly backed. All in all, this isn't a conventional protagonist-antagonist arrangement and I'm not sure he is deserving of the award as such, but I do see how he can be viewed as an antagonist.
Am I the only one that was a bit upset Mushoku Tensei didn't even get nominated for best score? The music in that show is an often overlooked aspect of the production. It was unbelievably good, particularly the music that played when Rudeus was walking up to the Shirone castle. The way the bells that that open up the song seem like church bells in the town ringing and then transfer into a banger song is impeccable.
@@lightbrand_ this^^^ This generation of weebs are now so sensitive to anything and trashes on shows they haven't even watched or understand It's funny cause these are the same generations who praises Eren (the man who committed genocide on the whole world)
Same same, I was like ok, I know they don't stand a chance against AOT and Demon Slayer, but I at least hoped a Best Boy for Boji and something for OddTaxi
18:37 I FELT THAT. It's why I don't watch the video game awards. It's not going to go to the game that rightfully deserves it and could use the exposure. It's going to the big name that's "eh, close enough".
Don't be sad guys, it has definitely improved a lot, I mean Odd Taxi, Ousama no Ranking, To Your Eternity, Horimiya getting awards that they deserve. Sure 86 and Vivy deserved too. But it's definitely an improvement compared to previous years.
13:15 YEEEEAH! Set your Heart Ablaze! I can still hear that track echoing in my bones... (also akaza's theme, and their fight ost slaps pretty hard too)
The last time I remember the Anime Awards surprising Grant this much was when Kaguya won the best girl award instead of Chizuru. Though I feel that he'd agree with that win now.
I hate how jjk was nominated both last year and this year despite it being the exact same season or that they included anime that haven't even finished. They need to seriously fix their shit
It’s just a flawed system, really. For one thing the shows that don’t air on Crunchyroll are automatically disadvantaged (Mushoku Tensei and Duke of Death, for example). So much is wrong with the idea of anime awards since it’s always a popularity contest in the end. I don’t know how anyone can even try to pretend like these are legit awards when Aoi Yūki’s voice acting as Kumoko somehow lost to Eren’s VA.
@@andrew_h6 or like when demon slayer beat vinland saga, the promised neverland season 1, mob psycho and carole and tuesday for anime of the year. The promised neverland has arguably THE best prologue in any anime. It's just a popularity contest and their judges, who are supposed to kinda be the voice of reason and counter the popularity side of it, are always just super biased and cringey. Pretty sure the only reason mushoku tensei was barely nominated is bc of the whole pedo scandal with eris and rudy. So stupid.
@@manumudgal4988 Oh I mean It deserves every award it was given in this show. I think it won best animation, movie and score and all those were great. I don't think it should win best comedy, romance or drama. (Why don't we have best narrative??)
86 and Mushoku Tensei definitely deserve atleast one award . And best Romance anime horimiya....people haven't watched fruits basket final , it was too in the nomination. Demon slayer movie had high budget for the last fight and it's a movie compared to a series, Don't forget 86, vivy has a too good animation in action scenes
Oh I've seen fruits basket final... Definitely not worthy of best romance compared to horimiya. If this were fruits basket season 2 then you have a strong case.
They should just change the categories to Protagonist/Hero and Antagonist/Villain. Eren's not an antagonist, but the category would've been pretty dry without him
@@HollowPurple-if2co yes but villain does not equal antagonist. Eren could be the villain (depending on your perspective) but he is by definition not an antagonist.
I've commented this on other channels/videos about the awards and I'll say it again: I'm still upset no one from Kageki Shoujo! was nominated for best Japanese VA award. The VA's did such a great job with their performances and I'll forever be salty about it. That, and for Jobless not getting any awards. The Demon Slayer movie definitely should have stayed in the movie category. Different scheduling/budgeting goes into those than weekly anime productions and it's like comparing apples to oranges. Sigh, I'm hoping for better results next year but sadly I feel like we're going to have another Demon Slayer awards for 2022
The worst thing is most of the Demon Slayer wins were for the Mugen Train movie series and not the movie. Which is a bit of a cop out given it is basically rehashing the movie content.
@@HarryAyA Yeah the movie pretty much skyrocketed the shows popularity and killed in the global box office which is why it won(because of popularity). Im not saying it was a bad movie but there were better that came out this year
Yes obviously, the wins were only for the movie. The latest season is miles better and would be nominated and most probably win. P.S It's funny you talk about weekly anime productions when the tv season was better animated than the movie
Well his logic is quite flawed on that argument. If it was "Kimi no Na Wa" or "Koe no Katachi" then yes, they are movie level animation. But "Mugen Train" is literally a series that has been made into a movie. Season 1 had the same level of animation and now season 2 also has.
well, I don't think the story will help to decide which show has better animation. I love mushoku Tensei more than demon slayer but the action scenes of demon slayer are something else. Mushoku Tensei has good animation and is consistent but demon slayer beats it.
Demon Slayer is from the same studio as Fate(talking about UBW, Zero and Heaven's Feel here), but it defnitely can't win against Ufotable's Fate adaptations in terms of animation.
I definitely think that Jujutsu won the best character design not necessarily because of the designs of their human cast, but more so because of the designs of the curses in the show. That is where we see most of the creative muscles being flexed in that show. It doesn't hurt that it is also super popular, and that means that only a couple of judges would have had to pick it since 90% of the public would choose it.

exactly. people kept raving on s2 but im like eh there were pacing problems and if i wanted to watch effects spectecles i would have put DBZ on lol. however, it is the current hype right now so yea it was going to win. I do agree with garnt that it shouldnt been allowed both in movie AND tv categories. should have picked one lane.
@@phgamer4393 mugen train was a movie though
@@phgamer4393 1. Comparing DS effect spectacles to DBZ is laughable, at best.
2. S2 was pretty solid. It didn't deserve, like 1-2 of the awards, but it was still pretty good, and I didn't have an issue with the pacing at all.
@@troydennis96 Yeah, but I could've sworn that I saw Mugen Train in tv show categories when it should've only been in the best film category. That being said I don't understand the hype behind Kaisen especially when you compare basic bitch action manga character designs to ones like Oddtaxi where the character designs aren't only unique, but the in-world explanation for the character designing is unique.
This is one of those weird things where I agree with him that its not fair to compare movie production with series production in the same category but also if we are comparing them then obviously demon slayer wins animation because if there is one thing demon slayer does better then everything else is the animation quality. I do think Mushoku Tensei should have won an award but I also know that there was a lot of mixed animosity towards Mushoku Tensei at the beginning for like the first 6ish episodes where it got almost as much hate as it did praise because soo many people hated Rudeus and thought he was another incel character with poor objectifying views on women and, obviously as you watch the show you understand that was the entire point and how he had to grow as a character from being that, but it immediately put off soo many people that dropped the show. The point I'm getting to is everyone knows the awards are a popularity contest and the early reception to Mushoku Tensei hurt that popularity quite a bit.

If not, then don't.
@@tomshapira9368 I don't really do the whole normie bait thing, i just prefer my anime less "action-y" and such. I watch other things for my action/blood/gore what have you, fix. So anime of those type never appealed.

Budget doesn't mean better animation, thats literally not how it functions. OPM Season 1 had average budget
@@josperpopet8949 budget = animation potential, more budget = better animation potential. the more budget and better animators' skill = the better animation, really high budget + worser animators > really low budget + better animators

I am gonna get flamed for this but after all the hype that Mushoku was getting, I am kinda disappointed, well not disappointed because it's great, I am just not seeing what about it was worthy of best anime, like people were saying. Still, I'd argue it deserved best fantasy and animation (for a series). That was a robbery but his is CR Awards, that's to be expected.

@@cronotriggered4314 Well I don't have a problem with that personally. UFOtable puts the same amount of budget on 8 episodes of the entertainment district arc as the entire mugen train movie. Atleast that's how it felt like to me. So that's just classic Ufotable right there. They just have insane budget for all of their shows, especially demon Slayer, and it looks like their quality is rising even further judging from season 2.
@@alexicon2006 I’ll never get how anyone likes that series for anything besides animation. For me personally, only scenes with Rengoku in it peaked my interest.
@@SnowHelation It's really just preference. I think of demon Slayer as a sweet and simple story that is not unique in any way and doesn't try to be. For me it does what it wants to do perfectly and that's why there are so many fans of that series. Those who don't like it prefer something a little more complex than DS, which is also pretty understandable. But for me the simplicity and basic nature of it is part of its charm, and I don't think of that as a bad thing. Of course it's all subjective at the end of the day. I'm not talking about things like animation, I'm just talking about what you prefer in a series besides that.

Fr tho ppl think that all mc requires to be on the good side
But he opposes himself in many ways... He can be the antagonist, it is not impossible for the main character to be both protagonist and antagonist. There's nothing impossible in writing.
Eren is somehow impossible to put into a box. You would think he's either a hero with questionable methods making him an anti hero or a villain with good intentions but actions that are villainous making him an anti villain. But because of perspective he's neither.

People will shout that they want a flawed character, only to complain when they get what they asked for
They don't want to reckon with the grim reality of a truly flawed character and not a heroic badass who "only reluctantly" does all the traditional hero things while brooding every once in a while.
You're rare. You speak facts.
They only want "safe" flaws like _Izuku being such a soft sensitive baby cinnamon roll uwu,_ not anything that even the story itself portrays as being morally repugnant that the character must overcome.

Studio Bind made not just the action or character designs appealing, but the entire world and effects as well. Every scene is a background wallpaper and every movement is fluid and beautiful.

That was a trashass comparison, you know that right? Like shows/movies with MCs doing war crimes is pretty fucking popular in the West, dawg. The difference between Mushoku and AOT along with these western shows/movies, these characters are criticized IN THE SHOW/MOVIE AND BY FANS/CONSUMERS. Some fans even go as far to call Eren an antagonist. The main character at 17-18 died masturbating to lolis. Quite literally the definition of a pedophile. The difference is is that the show sweeps it under the rug and even goes so far as to justify his behavior as a hobby like reading manga and watching anime that are considered hobbies. He's not criticized much from the show outside of the realm of being called a pervert, but like...... no one knows He's actually a 17-18 year old disguised as a 10 year old (but at that point he would be considered 28 if you combine both of his lives ages). A 10 year old pining for girls his age can come off as just child's play or occasionally perverted depending on what he does, but he manipulates these girls for the sake of his harem. Manipulate is the sugarcoded word for grooming in this case. It's not acknowledged in the show at all, and it seems avid fans justify it as "they're not real people so it's okay." Some fans even justified it by saying "it was normal in the time period, so he's not doing anything illegal." 💀💀

@@waydebelgrave-haynes855I agree with that, fruba is way better then Horimiya . Horimiya is just a Comedy but with a lil bit of romance in it. There's not much plot going on, and yeah it is not a good adaptation cuz they rushed it way too much.
I mean, Horimiya was a fresh of breathe air for romance animes having to be so dramatic all the time
Attack on Titan is one of the only anime I recommend to non anime fans, especially since I saw the final season (part 1 specifically), holy shit it's amazing, and well deserved for all these awards.
I'm blown away that Vivy and 86 didn't win a single award let alone animation.. Mushouku very much deserved best animation and best fantasy.
I really got pissed when Demon slayer guy won best score when there was AoT and 86 with Sawano and Yamamoto

@@kobil316SH how to make to a mid story shounen like ds that people will call it a masterpiece
1. Have a midstory
2. Have godly fight animation
3. Have several asspulls so that they can defeat the enemy
4. Show the audience the sad backstory of the villain so that they will sympatize the enemy
5. People will call it a masterpiece because they cried
6. Repeat
"wait till u see the sad backstory of this demon"
- every ds manga reader
an anime with godly animated fight scenes and makes you cry or sad ≠ masterpiece fiction
My take:
People's opinion who claims new anime to be GOAT but hasn't watched Gintama yet are invalid. So far I'm not wrong yet.
ikr it only aot tars, jjk and demon slayer addicts that voted for their shows and I'm sure they haven't even watch most of the shows that were the norminess and it so annoying

Mugen Train wasn't even supposed to be in the nominations since it wasn't even from last year, this gets you asking what was done with this year's awards
Mugen Train was released in 2020 only in Japan I believe and awards include shows that were released in 2021 in the US. So it technically counts.
I'm so confused with Demon Slayer. Wasn't it reused footage from a 2020 movie? How does that qualify as a 2021 show?

i was so heart broken when fruits basket season 3 didn't win best drama or best romance it was literally so good. The voice actors/actresses did such a good job and the animators did amazing. The story line was so good and usually i prefer to read manga but the fruits basket reboot was so much better than the manga in my opinion and it completely blew me away. I was literally crying tears of joy by the end of it and it is probably one of my favorite anime to this day. Fruits basket also taught me very valuable life lessons and the character development was SO DAMN GOOD. I feel like one thing that made me really satisfied was that in the end everybody ended up with somebody and that there were no loose strings to tie up. A lull in the sea was an anime where i thought the animation was beautiful but the storyline was not. The anime had such a good potential but i think that they made it too much into a high school cringey romance series. One thing that really bothered me throughout the series was how the supporting characters got no attention. Fruits basket really got everything down though. They got the dark/deep backstory's and making the antagonist lovable and not only focusing only loving somebody but also in fruits basket the supporting characters literally made the show a whole. I don't think i would have enjoyed it at all without the details with the supporting characters. Literally fruits basket took Tohru's 2 friends and made them into characters where you could truly understand them and honestly i dont think that half of the creators put that much work into supporting cast.
Ok ...
So , Fruits Basket was good ...
But I don't think it Could have beat Horimiya ...
😀😀😀
cry we dont care
@@dhyanbaraiya8a790 Well everybody has their own opinion :)
Straight facts, i love horimiya but the second half of it has nothing on fruba in terms of romantic development and def best drama. But of course that generic slice of life that gets popular every year then forgotten the next beats an anime that was so beloved and criticality loved it got a reboot despite the manga being long over. No hate on those generics i love most of them but lmk if you actually think komi, nagatoro, or even dress up darling will be remotely as well crafted by their endings as fruba they are almost even different genres
@@sophiabri123 I COMPLETELY AGREE 🛐🛐🛐
He is so speechless that cüm is falling from his eyes in the thumbnail.
I do agree that Mushoko Tensei probably had better animation than the Demon Slayer movie, but the whole "Movie quality animation vs. tv series animation" statement doesn't really hold up anymore given Demon Slayer season 2 being absolutely insanely animated and is honestly better animated than the movie.
That's only because the animation studio got a bigger budget after the success of the 1st season. Mushoku tensei is a brand new anime from a brand new company. So it's no the same at all.
@@infinitesession5439 they actually have the same buget they just know how to use it better
@mochoman312 games No. Mushoku Tensei is a new anime from a new company, it would get an average of $200k per episode. Especially since it's a new studio. In comparison to Demon Slayer that's had millions of dollars in revenue sales and profit earnings since its been out for a little over a year and because of the movie's earnings. These things help fund the next season. So in a sense it is different.
@@infinitesession5439 source trust me bro
@Nerdyshoes ‘ ? I thought this was all common knowledge.
Jobless reincarnation was really done dirty :( But I'm stoked that hornymiya won the category it deserved :D
Hell yeah
I know that Season 2 will blow other anime out of the water the ending of season 2 is one of the best endings I’ve of all time

Fuckin nuts, Im 22 now and I remember watching this guys vids when I was 11. Crazy seeing how much hes been thriving since then.
Things I was salty about:
- MT didn’t win anything
- 86 didn’t win anything

it should honestly won character design the color and brightness and animation was actually good too
Skate was my pick for best character design. The design artist put jojo levels of color theory application into creating these characters and everyone looks so unique. Honestly it should've won.
sk8 got robbed for designs bro and I wouldn't have even minded if anything other than jjk won.
Tohru Honda is the epitome of best girl I don't know if the judges actually watched all shows, but I can conclude one of two possibilities:
1. They haven't actually seen FruBa
2. They are fucking blind
Best characters designs? Sure they were colourful but that was it, they looked generic asf aside from that, and the best ED? Not even close not when shows like 86, ReZero or Mushoku Tensei existed
"Is unfair that demon slayer comes with movie level quality animation against tv anime" then there is season 2 wich has animation even better than the movie and it's tv anime, so next year will be again Attack on Titan and Demon Slayer awards.
Yes exactly, garnt was just salty. Which understandable most of us are salty in some regards, my favourite anime of 2021 world trigger wasn't even considered
@@jello6845 The only thing that I think is highly wrong is best film, not because Demon Slayer doesn't deserve it but because it aired in 2020, how It get nominated for best film in 2021 I don't get it, also best fantasy this year was Mushoku even if the protagonist is a shitty person still the story was really good, I don't know how the slime won, the second part of the second season was so boring and slow, my god.
Attack on Titan deserves that award
Gintama the final Should have won the best film award not mugen train......
@@HARDIK_700 Never said Aot didn't deserve that award seeing the close to none competition it had that year, also I disagree with Gintama winning the best film award, it should have been Evangelion and I say that not being a fan of Gundam and Mecha Anime, but I heard people was waiting years for that film and I can say that Gintama wasn't that different from any other season of the anime, it was the same thing and you can argue it is the father of comedy and stuff but that doesn't mean it deserve automatically the award.
Honestly I was highly disappointed by the film and didn't leave me anything, even the death and sad moment was ruined by cheap comedy 10-20 or 30 minutes laters so... If I didn't watch it it will be the same as watching it, it's only a nostalgia effect, objectively speaking it's not that great and I liked Gintama, don't get me wrong, I wouldn't give less than 8 at the series in a whole but best film of the whole year? Mhhhh I don't think so, let alone the best film of the series itself, there were other films in the Gintama franchise which were better than the last one.
Seeing Odokawa getting best protagonists puts a smile on my face
Me: I bet Oddtaxi is gonna get snubbed and robbed for everything, especially the big awards

I think why demon slayer won so many was because the movie got turned into an arc in the show so it qualified for all the awards
Makes sense
I wonder if that’s one of the reasons why they did that.
@@megaavonaco9954 maybe🤣
I think it was, but this was when only the Mugen Train Arc was being nominated but people still lumped in the Entertainment District Arc with it cause it’s Demon Slayer.
That's why I got confused by the episode count on Crunchyroll. They had the movie as a movie and broken into like 7 episodes. But they're not labeled so people assume they're the same thing
I feel like we were all cheated out of an Eren Jaeger Protagonist and Antagonist win. Would've been a great meme.
Didn't deserve it though. Simple as that
@@brandonr1127 he is the Protagonist though. He was never actually the Antagonist well that is what it seems
@@KolbyML I somewhat agree, but at the same time I do see how he can be put into the antagonist category. He becomes adversary to nearly every group/person in the show. This has continued into the current season as well
@@Henry-qt3py no most of the story is told from Eren's perspective he is just the protagonist, it doesn't matter how evil his actions are the story is still told mostly from his perspective thus making him the protagonist, the antoganist is someone who opposes the protagonist, it doesn't matter how good or evil the antoganist is as long as they are opposing the protagonist then they are the antoganist, for example let's say DC made a comic series told from the perspective of the Joker then Joker would be the protagonist of that series and Batman would be the antagonist of that series since Batman is th main force opposing the Joker
@@human9073 I would say that first of all, the story isn't told from his perspective. It is mainly from an objective viewpoint to my understanding; we don't know what Eren or anyone else is thinking and this leads to all the twists we have seen throughout the series. Next, there are even many episodes not featuring Eren and further ones that don't focus on him. The people being focussed on here could be viewed as protagonists by some. Particularly, from the earlier seasons, many would view Eldia as the protagonist group with the antagonist in these seasons being the titans. As Eren seemingly betrays Eldia, he becomes the antagonist to the protagonist group. In addition, Eren can also be viewed as an antagonist to himself although this may not be as strongly backed.
All in all, this isn't a conventional protagonist-antagonist arrangement and I'm not sure he is deserving of the award as such, but I do see how he can be viewed as an antagonist.
10:11 “simplicity is key young one” - a wise man
Am I the only one that was a bit upset Mushoku Tensei didn't even get nominated for best score? The music in that show is an often overlooked aspect of the production. It was unbelievably good, particularly the music that played when Rudeus was walking up to the Shirone castle. The way the bells that that open up the song seem like church bells in the town ringing and then transfer into a banger song is impeccable.
Nope, I'm still spiteful cause of that, people these days seriously sleep on this anime and I'll be damned if people say Slime is better than Mushoku.
Also I love how all 5 opening songs technically count as a score since they utilitize it like one.
Yeah they even had 5 good openings that are actually unskipable.

I hate how jjk was nominated both last year and this year despite it being the exact same season or that they included anime that haven't even finished. They need to seriously fix their shit
It’s just a flawed system, really. For one thing the shows that don’t air on Crunchyroll are automatically disadvantaged (Mushoku Tensei and Duke of Death, for example). So much is wrong with the idea of anime awards since it’s always a popularity contest in the end. I don’t know how anyone can even try to pretend like these are legit awards when Aoi Yūki’s voice acting as Kumoko somehow lost to Eren’s VA.
@@andrew_h6 or like when demon slayer beat vinland saga, the promised neverland season 1, mob psycho and carole and tuesday for anime of the year. The promised neverland has arguably THE best prologue in any anime. It's just a popularity contest and their judges, who are supposed to kinda be the voice of reason and counter the popularity side of it, are always just super biased and cringey. Pretty sure the only reason mushoku tensei was barely nominated is bc of the whole pedo scandal with eris and rudy. So stupid.
It's just weird how they call it "best anime of the year" instead of "most popular anime of the year on our site". Literally normie awards XD

Different scheduling/budgeting goes into those than weekly anime productions and it's like comparing apples to oranges.
