It's always the same... Every year we openly subject ourselves to the pain and anguish created by the Crunchyroll Anime Awards. We hope, dream even, that this year will change. That things will be different and the anime that win will be the ones that rightfully deserve the award; rather, we find ourselves observing a popularity contest where the prettiest of them all takes the crown. It's always the same... But maybe, just maybe, things will be different this - Hmm? Oh, JJK might be eligible still? Yeah, no, it's still gonna be the same... Well, we'll try to stay optimistic this week as Frankfurtter and MagicallyAverage review the upcoming changes to the 2025 Crunchyroll Anime Awards and give their, albeit very early, predictions for the nominees and winners of some of the biggest categories at the awards!Articles Cited in Referenced:https://www.crunchyroll.com/animeawards/https://www.crunchyroll.com/news/announcements/2024/12/5/crunchyroll-anime-awards-tokyo-japan-may-25-2025?srsltid=AfmBOoqBSayFSVqAxTufzqiltLw7pwAEJVW9-BbHqC-gFLWXh-j6wf2g---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Twitter: BakacopodcastTwitch: BakacopodcastTikTok: @bakacopodcastInstagram: @bakacopodcastYouTube: @bakacopodcast---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------#anime #animepodcast #podcast #manga #animenews #animereviews #animerecommendations #mangacollection Hosted on Acast.
