TAAF 2022 Anime of the Year Winners Announced 385e6r

Well done eva
and jjk

JJK deserves it, it has some of the most amazing fights in anime history, and the voice actors are something else, plus Gojo of course 😁

Well done jjk and Eva
Both deserves it

Say YES to Evangelion!! that was such a great watch. I having to rewatch it and watch an analysis about the whole movie series and the meaning behind certain scenes because it contains some indirect implications. I also love how it ends. I even watched a documentary about the making of Eva just to see Anno's perspective of the show and how it was made.

tbh idk about JJK... it's super pretty (like... really pretty) but the story feels kinda similar to other shonen (but it might be because it's still in the beginning and I'm not watching or reading deep enough to understand things that are happening????) might want to re-watch just to see what's with the hype other than Gojo being badass. well, I've watched a video somewhere about JJK power dynamic and it seems interesting. I guess it's time to rewatch.

I'm also super happy about idolish7 since i7 story covers quite deep into the entertainment industry from just how business work, creator-creation-audience dynamic (like the reception of each other and how they can affect each other. I love everyone's perspective on this) to relationship in entertainment industry, how manipulative, stressful, unforgiving and uhhh... politic??? a creative industry can be. I guess the only problem is that i7 is a slow burn since it covers/introduces lots of characters that start as strangers so it only starts to get deep from s2(unless you're sharp enough to notice a whole lot of foreshadowing and implied content in s1)

Glad to see JJK win AOTY in Japan. If getting some recognition.

Glad to see Hideaki Anno get the recognition he deserves. Congrats to the other winners as well.

Congrats to i7!!! Totally deserved and underrated, but I'm glad fans are getting it the recognition it should get everywhere

Thank you.. Dude was straight up acting like a child

The only idol series worth writing home about is Oshi no Ko...I can tell that most of these mainstream idol shows barely touch on any of these serious themes that yall claim that they go into lol

Actually, Idolish7 really isn't for young girls. It's from a gacha rhythm game, which relies on using money to pull cards, so most of the audience should be adult working women with disposable income. There's also major themes on corporate/work exploitation, capitalism, commentary on media and fan culture, parasocial relationships, messed up abusive familial relationships. Definitely not for 14 year old girls.

fine for you then, anyone can enjoy it not just girls, there're many male fans and people from all ages watching this franchise

Dude, I7 living in your head rent-free? My pick lost to it too, and you don't see me giving everybody who likes it shit. Get over it.

16k posts and you still don't know how to manage your salt? I don't think you're cut out for forum browsing.

What if im not 14 yers old girl ?

IDOLiSH7 wins 2 years in a row! i7 is really popular in Japan and has a pretty solid fanbase in some of the East-Asia countries but not so many Western sides ppl watching this, it's a hidden gem!
Some might want to it because of its "idol themed" but the story is really well written, there're only 5 idol anime with a rating score above 8 on MAL and the top 2 of them are belongs to IDOLiSH7 (the ss2&ss3 1st cour TAAF award-winning). This series is well balanced between comedic wholesome scenes and dramatic storylines which may give you a rollercoaster of emotion. Especially the drama in this 3rd ss 2nd cour will be driven to its highest so you might want to catch up w the story right now.
AND they also have great music, maybe check out their yt channel first, i7 works w many studios like MAPPA, Ufotable, Kamikaze Douga etc.

Well deserved....I'm very happy for the man

Yuki Kajiura-sensei winning sound and performance award for 3 years in a row is... (I cannot find any words to describe the feeling)

Evangelion 4.0 was great but jjk Dosen't deserve it

Great to see that both Akira Matsushima and Yuuichi Terao are getting some well deserved recognition.

Even yawning is too much of a reaction. Dull, random and tiring choices, like every year.

Revue Starlight's movie came second to Idolish7. It seems sad, but given how popular I7 is in Japan, I'm proud we at least got that close. Congrats to I7 and it's fans.

Not much to say about JJK because I still haven't seen it, but I'm glad that Eva 4.0 won the movie award.
