The public noticed the absence of the man with the chainsaw, who is not in any category. The reason, however, is not in the quality of production, but in its starting window. This year, the award only evaluates works released between November 2021 and September 2022. The popular anime premiered in Japan in October 2022. However, that hasn’t stopped fans from rioting on social media.

This year, the networks will play a more direct role in choosing the top category for Anime of the Year. Social media users will be able to vote for their favorite anime by creating or sharing a public post with #AnimeAwards followed by your anime hashtag selected.
