The streaming platform Crunchyroll has announced the nominees for the Anime Awards anime productions released during the year. However, the " Anime of the Year " category, considered the most important, has already had its titles announced by the platform.

Chainsaw Man – Anime NOT nominated for the Anime Awards

Check it out:

Among the nominees for best Anime of the Year:

  • Shingeki no Kyojin: The Final Season – Part 2 ( Attack on Titan );
  • Cyberpunk: Edgerunners; 
  • Kimetsu no Yaiba: Yuukaku-hen ( Demon Slayer: Entertainment District Arc );
  • Lycoris Recoil; 
  • Ousama Ranking Part 2 ( Ranking of Kings );
  • Spy x Family.

Therefore, the news posted on Crunchyroll 's Twitter took otaku fans by surprise. In other words, fans questioned the absence of the animes Chainsaw Man , Bleach, and the beloved Bocchi the Rock!, which both aired during the fall 2022 season .

Check out the fans' outrage:

  • Where is Mob Psycho 100? Where is BLEACH? Where is Summertime Rendering? Where is Made in Abyss? Where is Kaguya-sama?
  • Seriously? Rankings for Shingeki no Kyojin and Ousama? I like them both, but please. The Ousama Ranking is from 2021, and for Shingeki no Kyojin, they listed the second part of an unfinished series. Where's Bocchi the Rock? Isn't Chainsaw Man here?
  • And where the hell is Summertime Rendering?
  • Crunchyroll doing "the Crunchyroll" every year. What a pathetic selection;
  • I went to the website and the rest of the recommendations are equally bad haha

Synopsis:

The story takes place in a world where demons are born from human fears. While they are generally dangerous and malevolent, humans can form contracts with demons to use some of their power. Denji is a depressed young man trying to repay his late father's debt to the yakuza by selling several of his organs and working as a demon hunter.

Fujimoto finally launched the manga in Weekly Shonen Jump in December 2018.
