Solo Leveling just got confirmed by crunchyroll to be the best anime of the last year
Beating Frieren
Beating Maomao
Beating Dandadan
You can't make this shit up at this point
Anime awards
Dungeon Meshi gets literally nothing and everyone was saying it was the best anime of last year. RIP Studio Trigger
still never watching isekai :)
With BD sold less than Guild handler? 1499 BD. Lower than CSM. Ironic that this didn't trend in Korean Twitter and namuwiki for 25 weeks. Why? Koreans must have hyped for this but it didn't in Korea. Koreans liked Mahoako and Sakaday more ironically.
This is absolutely criminal
I showed it to my parents and they told me it was so boring. I watched another episode after that and stopped ever since. It's like a 7/10.
crunchyroll
opinion discarded
Shut up. Dungeon meshi sold lots of merches, trended in twitter, and collabed everywhere. But why does no one collab with solo leveling? No solo leveling collab in USJ or other restaurants and amusements. No plamodel and toys for solo leveling in bandai.
it had subs in their native language and they still said it was boring as shit
But I thought Weebs would watch anime for cute girls doing yuri things, not gay twink dancing with 6.9cm shiv, as BD sale proved that as medalist and maomao, and mahopri2, guild handler which has cute girls as protag sold more than this.
I'll take this over CuckCuCuck anytime lmao.
It is pretty criminal that Solo leveling gets it with that roster. Frieren, Dungeon Meshi, Dandadan and Apothecary Diaries could have won and It's be great.
This has to be a fucking joke. America should have bomber South Korea. Crunchyroll is full of Koreans, not a single japanese american in the presenter line-up.
Who the fuck watch anime for gay twink dancing with 6.9cm shiv, instead of cute girls doing yuri things? Is crunchyroll watched by normies more?
Thing that isn't anime wins crunchy anime awards
Says it all really
This is the era of streaming now old man.
Because it's Korean and it flopped in Japan. Only reason why they're still doing the anime adaptation is because it's doing well in the West. Why didn't a Korean animation studio picked it up instead is beyond me.
Is crunchyroll watched by normies more?
Yeah dude
Nothing else matter but cool flashing lights that I can stream directly to my tv. Only old boomers buy BD anymore
Not at all, he literally carries the show.
Yeah. That's how Korea enforces their censorship standard to Japanese anime. Seems that Japanese anime is adapting Korean censorship standard as we can see from CGDCTs are replaced with old hag. Due to Acheog law, and Japanese anime are complying to this. Those who shilled solo leveling are responsible for these censorships.
What A1 studios produces is no longer anime because it aggravates my axe wound!
Why did it flopped in Korea tho? It didn't trend in Korean twitter and namuwiki for 25 weeks too.
It didn't even get nominated for action, characters or music, the MAIN AUDIENCE of Dungeon Meshi doesn't think is even good at those lmao.
Solo leveling has every custom in Korean standard. Car cockpit on left, eating rice with spoon, using metal chopstick.
I hope this means everyone starts the sololeveling like the overrated p8ece if shit it is.
So does Maomao. That does not make him a good character.
award shows were gay when it was just jews patting eachothers backs. anime award shows are even gayer.
He's better than everything here and by far except Frieren, but you could go and make a thread comparing both and you will get a lot of people shitting on Frieren so...
Why does Sung Jin Woo have less fanart than Chalia bull and Bask Om tho?
As shit as Jinwoo is he's still more tolerable than Kaiju's MC
Reminder that Solo Leveling's webnovel was rated 3/10 in Korea before the artist picked it up and gave it the OPM treatment.
that doesn't mean naything. Kaiju no 8 got more collabs and merch than frieren and solo leveling combined and literally nobody cares about kaiju no 8.
Full list of winners of every category?
en.wikipedia.org
even Evan Call lost
Why doesn't Japan host one of these awards? Or maybe they do but no one gives a shit?
demon slayer, frieren and solo leveling won 95% of the awards
Solo leveling didn't sold lots of merch. It didn't collab anywhere in Japan and even Korea. Bandai didn't made toy, plamodel and shokugan with this.
I wish I knew. Although, i don't think CR is represented in Korea as their main distributor of anime like it is in the west. Probably another example of a piece of media that isn't popular in its original country, but thrives abroad.
oh boy, should i try to finish that shit? ...maybe it gets better?...
...nah, too busy rewatching frieren.
Beating Isekaislop, feminist and cuck garbage isn't hard.
What do you mean? These awards are THE japanese awards, even Anon Babble recognize it, did you forget when Cyberpunk won?
Solo Leveling is an isekai retard
What does this tell you about the western taste towards anime after the massive infestation of Zoomers. This is what happens when you don't gatekeep enough
I can't believe this isn't anime anymore because it's adapting a non-japanese story. Solo Levelling is terrible and there's plenty of ways to shit on it but it's still anime as it's animated by japan while the source material is manwha and not manga as it's written and drawn by koreans.
Its not even judging by the second season, which had actual hype but the first season which nobody cared about. This is hilarious.
The people voting probably didn't even notice or care. All they cared about was the PEAK action scenes they got in season 2
More like Japan didn't gatekeep China and Korea hard enough.
Gundam is more popular with fan artists.
Sung Jinwoo
korean names sound like bastardized chinese names. At least japanese has its own character. A japanese name sounds very different from a chinese name.
Literally botted
I watched the first season. It felt like a bad combination of Shangri-La Frontier and Isekai Meikyuu de Harem o (Labyrinth Harem). At least the two other shows I mentioned had something that made them watchable.
The character designs felt even more average than in the most average anime.
Can someone please explain what it is about Solo Leveling that aggravates schizos so much?
peak is stretching it
It's not that it was aggravating, it just didn't deserve to be Anime of the Year. It's as simple as that. And they should know it's Crunchyroll who held it, so it's just another popularity poll.
Well, it is better than Freiren that's for sure. Apothecary Diaries should've won of course.
Nobody gives a fuck about these awards, Keiichiro Saito was given best director and didn't even show up. They literally just had some goon with a Frieren plushie accept it instead
Crunchyroll is an american streaming service and the majority of the voters are foreigners, even if the award show is held in japan.
show animated by A-1 pictures(owned by sony) won best anniemay awards organized by crunchyshit(owned by sony)
Wow, what a crazy coincidence
Cuz it is overrated, spite it didn't trend in Japanese twitter and even Korean twitter/namuwiki. It didn't sell lots of merch. It didn't collab with USJ or other restaurants/amusement. Bandai didn't made toys, plamodel and even shokugan while Bocchi and Tonjiro got plamodel. Bocchi and Tonji got lots of fanarts while Sung Jin Woo didn't. Why cannot Solo leveling have lots of collabs unlike Bocchi, frieren, maomao, demon slayer?
Well, Makoto Shinkai was there last year and he's the biggest anime director by far. So I don't know what point you're trying to make here.
crunchyroll
Lol, lmao even.
Yeah. Yanami Anna has lots of fanart than Sung Jin Woo. And sold more blu ray and merches.
Normalfags are already turning on the anime over at reddit.
Makeine was AOTY but there was no way a SOL show was going to win a lot of awards with the normie crowd.
Bones tend to make a crunchy noise whenever you roll down the stairs. You should try it, OP.
But seriously, leave, now.
Everyone else, report him for violating Global Rule 11.
sys.Anon Babble.org/a/imgboard.php?mode=report&no=279041340
Kek, i voted for this. I hope the overshilled for this series falls flat on its face.
unironically caring about the opinions of xitter trannies
Kill yourself.
Was Crunchyroll for normies? Cuz solo leveling didn't trend between Japs and Koreans for 25 weeks. Sold less BD than guild handler.
We already have a manhwa as something distinct from manga.
Please just separate this gookshit from anime as well
Are Korean and Japanese twitter trend irrelevant? Solo leveling didn't trend in Korea and Japan while frieren, maomao, bocchi did. And bocchi and frieren made meme while solo leveling didn't.
appealing to redditor opinions
Really?
But Solo Leveling won ANIME of the year.
This should belong to same shit as Tinyping. Both are censored shit for beinng Korean as passive. Both are Aeni. Not anime. Anime can have bikinis while manhwa and aeni cannot.
Where are the fucking jannies
Why didn't it trend between Jap and Gook twitter for 25 weeks tho? Do Korean zoomers who are pro Japan nettouyos, and Japanese have shitty taste?
This. The anime awards should have been in January, instead of halfway into the next fucking year.
Yeah. No weebs would watch anime for gay twink dancing with 6.9cm shiv. They would rather watch anime for cute girls doing yuri things. Is it wrong to cocksuck yuri in anime?
Hilarious considering it's not popular at all in Japan and regarded as really quite mid.
Indians having internet access and the consequences
We already hate this shill here. I dont need to know what Anon Babble thinks.
Learn English and get the fuck out of Anon Babble you illiterate fucking retard.
But Korean and Japanese weebs in twitter are mostly right wingers ironically. Thread is for Busayos.
And even not popular in Korea, since Maomao, Medalist, Sakaday was more popular than this even in Korea. See Solo leveling's merch not selling well, and its game flopping, it gets no collab with any shop like USJ. Even fujos don't care about sung jin woo, while they like Gojo satoru.
I came here to laugh at Frieren pedofags, Solo leveling has better art, characters, and story, Gemeric elf show #1000000 never stood a chance.
Leave bikinischizo be, he can shit up SL threads as a treat
It's definitely more entertaining than. Freiren from what I watched. It was a struggle to get through Freiren after the first 7 or 8 episodes
what's their criteria for "best"?
"most popular"?
because those are two different things
It's a public vote for people who use Crunchyroll, you can vote up to 10 times every day per account
You watched two episodes and concluded it's a 7/10 (well above average) and then dropped it.
Yeah you're a fucking retard.
a fucking streamfag """award""" show?
how the hell this isn't off-topic is beyond me
per day? so I can vote for anime X today, and then tomorrow vote for it again? how does that measure anything other than the persistence of the voters?
Why is a 2023 anime there? Frierenfags are so fucking retarded it hurts
Fern winning best side character is the most botted fucking vote of all time. Actual cringe.
i started this yesterday and i'm in love with it, but at the same time i can see why it didn't win
gourmet anime is quintessentially japanese, and emphasizes the japanese dining experience which means that everybody else won't get the nuance and can't relate
in ep1, senshi cuts up the slime like it's soba and later on in the 2nd part of the ep, he makes an omelette with the cockatrice egg and fries the leg japanese style
it cannot compete with the scale that frieren or solo leveling has. japanese iron chef vs LOTR or whatever
Yes and when I say account I mean email account. If you had 10 email accounts one person could vote for their favourite show 100 times every single day for the entire month that voting was open for.
This is one of the many reasons people don't take this shit seriously
Why solo leveling when there are actually good weblop not many but a few, yet this is what gets adapted and artificially boosted?
No weeb watches anime for gay twink dancing with 6.9cm shiv. Weebs watch anime for cute girls doing yuri things.
Cute girl sells more than gay twink in anime.
And Frieren trended on twitter, had lots of collabs, sold lots of merches and had more cosplays and left the memes like mimic meme and sad(?) frieren face meme.
While solo leveling didn't trend on Japanese and Korean twitter, not selling lots of merch, no collabs, no toys, plamodels and shokugan. And no cosplays, no remarkable meme. Frieren has more fanart than solo leveling.
Solo leveling only sold 1499 BD which is less than guild handler... why is it not popular in Korea tho? Sakaday, Maomao, medalist was more popular than this in Korea. Are Korean zoomers(who are pro Japan than 40s) having bad taste for not liking solo leveling anime? Why do Korean weeb not like solo leveling tho? Are Koreans being less patriotic recently?
it's doing well in the West
interesting definition of the west you have
Yuritard bikini schizo lost.
so it's a tool for farming user engagement, in disguise
pretty smart honestly
smart and deplorable
award themed popularity contests are ultimately just content a site puts out to drive traffic
ESL meltdown
Does Pajeet count as "West" too? Turks would count as West tho.
the studio took anti-japanese racism and turned into anti-korea
the final effect: japan still doesnt give a shit about generic korean IP and korea stopped giving a shit
A1-Picture suit are fucking retarded
Does Korean weebs have bad taste for not having solo leveling trend in Korean twitter and namuwiki(better wiki site than wikia/fandom for weebs) for 25 weeks?
That's also Sony anyway.
Funny that Japs and Chosenjing zoomers not liking Solo leveling anime. What went wrong? It is serious problem not appealing to Senjings with senjing IP.
who cares
all modern anime is shit so being the best isn't something to be proud of
if anything it makes that anime the shittiest
Cuz Makeine trended in twitter while solo leveling didn't. And Makeine had more fanart than solo leveling for Anna being cute and chubby.
frieren suffers from what violet evergarden did: episodic non-real problems in a world that's mostly recovering from a war
if we had to learn one thing from the current world, it's that people living in safe and secure environments don't want to watch boring shit
solo leveling manufactures struggle at almost every point of the anime from the bits and pieces that i've watched
can you really give the respectable title of 'japanese' to a bunch of sell-outs
No one knows what the fuck you're saying retard.
Why does Koreans not like solo leveling anime? It didn't trend in Korean twitter and namuwiki as well as Japanese twitter. Are korean weebs having bad taste for liking maomao, medalist, sakaday more than this?
Zoomers
Interesting redefinition of hindu rats
you have to be over 18 years old to use this site
When did Anon Babble ever care about the CR awards?
If turkey and india count as the "West" then somalia would also count as the "West".
All I wanted is for Kaijuu No. 8 to lose and I got what I wanted based Crunchyroll.
who?
SAY HIS NAME
CR is for gaijin normies
But ironic that frieren made lots of fanart, sold lots of merches, left lots of memes, had lots of collabs, lots of cosplays, while solo leveling lacked fanarts, merch sales, memes, collabs and cosplay.
Why does solo leveling lack meme while Frieren left lots of memes, collabs, fanarts and merches? Does weebs in Korea and Japan have bad taste? Frieren is more popular than solo leveling in both Korea and Japan. Since Korean zoomers are being pro Japan and rebellous gainst their own country, unlike 2010s when they were mostly nationalists and renegades were few...
Elfsissies..
AOTY!!!
SUNG JINWOO!!!
PEAK!!!
Crunchyroll's AOTYs have never made people happy because of how rigged they are on both sides (2016's Yuri on Ice campaign being the prime example), though Made in Abyss win was honestly a big relief somewhat. Both the public and jury are just incredibly surfaced level in choosing what to nominate, and they never have any kind of minimum # requirement to watch anime shows. Granted, even the Oscars only recently implemented that shit for next year, but Crunchyroll's managed to become so worse than any anime awards out there. Fucking zero prestige nor goodwill
And still won if it was japan only as their normalfags would go for the elf or another battle shounen.
All the cope in this thread
BWAHAHAHAHAHA
Solo Leveling is AOTY, the people have made their voices heard on this matter. Elfsissies and other we/a/tards can cope harder.
Why are faggots always so afraid to give a low rating?
But Frieren is more popular than Sung Jin Woo in Korea and Japan. According to twitter trend and fanart number. Frieren had remarkable memes like smug face, sad face and mimicked frieren while solo leveling didn't.
CR awards are trash. The only time they did something right was when they made Slime S2 win over MT S1.
the metric for AOTY has never been readership numbers or sales figures
the elfsissy is more popular because... she had more funny face art made of her
DANGEROUS LEVELS OF COPE
Not Anon Babble
Fuck off
Why is sung jin woo having less fanart even than Chalia bull and Bask om tho? Chalia and Bask are old man, but popular than sung jin woo in Japan and Korea.
Solo Leveling is AOTY,
It is for CR viewers you can see how happy they are it won.
Why do you keep bringing up Japan this is Crunchyshit, only gaijin who sub to them voted.
Gurgoo Flooyood
And selling more BDs, merches and toys, lots of fanarts, more collabs as well. Solo leveling didn't sold lots of BDs, merches and toys. They are being shelfwarmer. And solo leveling lacks toy.
I don't care about anime, it's just for dumb normalfags. I only read obscure, mature and DEEP manga for faggots such as myself.
"Unironically" as the kids say.
Solo Leveling is truly the perfect textbook example for "all style, no substance"
Solo Leveling wins AOTY
Somehow didn't win best animation
Didn't win something most people agree is what they excel at
Insane levels of logic and rigging
i brought up Korea for it is ironic that Korean adaptation is not that popular in Korea either. As it didn't trend in Korean twitter and namuwiki for 25 weeks. And namuwiki is better wiki than wikia.
What is the winner for animation? Don't want to give them clicks.
Why didn't sung jin woo had lots of fanart than Chalia bull who is old man? Gay twink having less fanart than green alien granpa(30s) is ironic.
Stop lying it trended nonstop.
W-who cares its just crunchyroll muh gaijin, w-we totally dont care
All the seething in this thread right now despite "not caring"
Cope even harder LOL.
SAY. HIS. NAME
Because the gooks know that SL is just mediocre even among huntershit series and that it just copied stuff like Seoul Station's Necromancer.
Looks like some poorly made Roy Mustang fanart.
Sukdeep Poosmell?
Oh wait, that's yours
I know the janny leaks revealed the (already commonly known) fact that they're all tranny redditors but still
I searched Japanese and Korean twitter archive on 2am, sunday in Japanese/Korean hour between 2025.Jan to april. It didn't trend both in Korea and Japan, while Maomao, medalist did.
Kimetsu no Yaiba. The training arc one. Stupid, I know.
Because it's mainly popular among SEAfags who AFAIK don't have many fujos but I am not quite sure about that.
Who cares about twitter?
wow, people are really angry. They're demanding to change the winner, too. Elfsissies in particular are the most vocal about it.
Japanese people
There are thousands of images on pixiv.
Seethe more LMAO
Jinwoo is HIM. He WON.
Now filter out AI slop
They all left twitter after it became X.
No idea who that is. Sounds like a faggot I'd see in that Windbreaker fujo trash anime
No, they are still active.
why?
90% of them moved to JPR and Line.
Source?
Mad cuz your gay anime isnt AOTY, poor schizo, maybe next year.
Jinwoo is HIM.
Proofs?
2024
Outdated.
Why would you filter out zero effort content when trying to determine actual popularity
Truly a mystery
Just go on JPR right now and there are a million posts in the past day.
Using numbers and data to prove nothing
Twitter became X before 2024, you lose
isnt AOTY
As voted by "Crunchyroll viewers"
Conditions, can vote 10 times a day per EMAIL ACCOUNT
Do not need to be registered to Crunchyroll
Sajaegi in full effect
People who make the art still like the show so it still reflects how popular it is.
The real question, why do westoid like this webtoon so much?
All these mental gymnastics to try and disprove what is already facts.
Solo Leveling (rightfully might I add) winning AOTY has mindbroken you. Take your meds
make
prompting isn't creation. You've put in zero effort. Your kind are very familiar with that concept aren't they jeetboy?
Japan has 76M X users. Which is second highest next to USA.
It took a while for them to start leaving. It didn't happen instantly.
Based Solo Leveling, best anime of 2025.
I wonder how pajeet shill farms didn't outvote everyone on all categories
crunchyroll is literally banned in japan
Twitter is a pretty good place to guage anime popularity because it's one of the few English language sites with an actually large Japanese userbase.
That's where stuff like Frieren and MaoMao dominate, out of the new crop of shows, Solo Leveling really gets quite a small fraction of interest in comparison to these.
So you admit that it does reflect popularity.
he slipped up
Lmao thanks for proving his point retard.
Twitter is mostly bots for corporations.
No, because no one has any desire to put in effort to make anything.
Hype moments and aura. The sad state of anime in the modern era.
Cuz it didn't sold lots of BDs, merches which are being shelfwarming and price being dropped. And it didn't collab with USJ and other amusement or restaurants. And it didn't got toy and plamodel from bandai. It didn't left meme, and has few fanarts aside from AI arts.even green alien old man named Chalia bull has more fanarts than Sung Jin Woo.
using a site known for getting the numbers wrong
Come on man.
It was number one on streaming which has millions of customers unlike BDs which have at most 50000 people buying them.
so how did solo leveling inspire you?
did it inspire you to be better, or did it inspire you to simply spam hype bait with AI images about Jin Woo?
But not popular in Korea and Japan as these didn't trend on Korean/Japanese twitter and namuwiki. Ironic that Korean adaptation isn't popular in Korea... what went wrong?
Hmm, i wonder who won CHARACTER OF THE YEAR AWARD? Oh yeah, it's HIM! Get rekt with your shitty substandard characters.
Sum Ting Wong?
Why would they spend time uploading fanart if they didn't like the show? Are you dense?
Solo Leveling is extremely popular (in India, Indonesia, and other countries that lack indoor plumbing)
It won the popularity award though???
literally who prize
Why give a shit? They could nominate a literal turd for [THING] Of The Year and you retards would manage to care about it.
Ironic that Streaming site and twitter trend doesn't match since it didn't trend both in Korea and Japanese twitter. Why? While Medalist and Maomao trended and sold more merches and books than this.
Japan has plumbing.
Where's the 2ch table for comparison? Been awhile since I've seen it.
Which popularity award? Aekaeto?
People actually watching the show is more important than tweeting a hashtag.
It just won the crunchyroll one.
Its not popular in Japan
Correct, it is not popular in Japan
NTA but Medalist is saved for next year maybe. That winning would be cool and incredibly based
But TV has realtime recording connected with twitter. Japanese TV realtime has subtitle on anime.
I wonder if Ave Mujica will win keeping the girls band trend or if Cinderella Grey or Medalist will break the streak.
It won the popularity award in Japan though.
Japan only watches Japanese TV. Everyone else watches through streaming. Therefore whatever is the most popular on streaming is the most popular worldwide.
i don't know what to tell you - any show nowadays has subs prepared for it ahead of broadcast in mutiple languages even
and if they don't then there's always the magic of live machine subtitling
And not being popular in Korea is more funny(spite Korea has weak plumbing as they cannot flush used toilet paper through toilet), why is solo leveling not that popular in Korea, as it didn't trend in gook twitter for 25 weeks just like Japanese twitrer? Ironic that Korean adaptation is not popular in Korea...
pic
Lmao its a seething elfsissy.
we dont care about crunchyroll its le rigged!!!
seething anyways, wont drop it
You guys are so full of shit, you guys say you dont care about crunchyroll, but the seethe points to the contrary
No, that would be pic-related
Why would japanese speakers need subtitles?
What award? Crunchyroll isn't Japanese for it is locked in Japanese network.
Wrong. Clearly says Solo Leveling is AOTY, therefore your claim is fake and gay. Cry about it.
Read the OP post. Slower this time.
Wait, this is judging its first season, not the second season
What the hell?
Convinience
Easier to follow if you both listen and read it
Japanese people treat the crunchyroll awards like gospel as they show what the world thinks of anime.
Cuz of Kanji.
Crunchyroll
CR isn't Japanese. Sorry to be the one to inform you of this.
No native speaker needs to read words they are already hearing unless they have mental problems or are deaf.
Prepare for another year of bullshit SL nominations
Nope. Crunchyroll doesn't reflect Korean and Japanese taste.
Crunchyroll is part of the Solo Leveling production committee, and they were clearly playing favorites during the airing.
crunchyroll
Why are we even discussing this?
Then stop crying about it you baby. Solo Leveling is AOTY and that's all there is to it. No amount of seething will change that LMAO Sorry not sorry that you cant accept facts you petulant child.
Why aren't you responding to this
I’m just happy Frieren lost, overrated trash
sea shitters awards
who cares, also the nominees are all trash
CR literally hires dozens of Japanese.
That's not even half as criminal as fucking NINJA KAMUI winning over Girls Band Cry. Disgusting shit.
When did American taste became the standard for anime when Japan and Korea has more weeaboos? Solo leveling didn't sold lots of merches, BDs and had no collabs in Japan and Korea.
Anime awards
who?
Why did Shinkai show up then?
AOTY
as determined by an easily rigged poll by some burger company
I don't know, do you need to go to ? They care what burgers have to say
What the fuck even is Ninja Kamui. It didn't even touch upon my rader in the season it airred.
so does this confirmed that westoid opinion is higher than japanese opinion
?
now no one can deny the westoidfication of anime.
Makeine was also done by Sony you have no excuse.
Burgers and thirdies have shit taste and only clap when they see keys jangle.
Because America not only owns both Korea and Japan, but it's also the world's dominant cultural power exporting it worldwide. I shouldnt have to tell you this retard.
No matter what your personal feelings on Ninja Kamui are it was the most iconic anime of it's season and deserved to win.
Why the fuck are 2023 anime series being voted on in 2025, what is this clown shit
Shinkai gave the crunchyroll awards his blessing, it's officially the award of Japan.
Did you know the new western fanbase that got into anime won't touch anything that has a shred of fanservice in it? Why are you surprised a show about 'aura farming/maxing' is what won with this audience. They probably also rate Marvel movies as peak fiction
MY anime didnt win therefore rigged.
For someone who claims to not give a shit about Crunchyroll and trashing it, you sure seem to take their AOTY pick very personally. Just keep crying about it.
Because he was paid to?
It's based on X likes.
Relatively decent ninja show for about four episodes until Jason Demarco threw in his standard retardation and turned it into a mecha show. He even self-inserted as a genius hacker that saved the day. Instead of getting any bitches though his self-insert had a black man proudly proclaim him Definitely Not Racist Mah Nigga which I guess is a more fitting fantasy of his.
SL has tons of fanservice and a bath scene you are dumb.
That doesn't explain why two year old series are competing in a 2025 contest, the recency bias is wild
itt: everyone hates it
Nothing based about it
These are the people who vote. Why would you expect anything but bottom-of-the-barrel normalfag-tier trash to win these awards, when these people vehemently refuse to sink their teeth into what the medium has to offer any deeper than that?
He wasn't paid a single yen. He respected the award and that's why he showed up to it.
These are the anime critics that Shinkai respects.
Where are the Japanese people?
SAY. HIS. NAME
Literally nobody knows who that guy is.
gookslop sisters...
the people didnt vote on the AOTY and categories, the crunchyroll staff did!
250+ replies in and the newest cope just dropped!
DAR RITE
I would shill this anime too if i got paid for it. Can any indians hook me up?
Cruncyroll had ten times the voters.
Mostly at top right, but eh doesn't matter
This is because the way Japanese make their name is completely different. A lot of them existed before they had kanji, and even now that they have kanji they use the several readings of each kanji to make a name that sounds good. It also helps that the language has a more neutral accent than Chinese and Korean.
Meanwhile for Chinese and Korean they just put 3 hanzi/hanja that are each one syllable and call it a day.
An award that Korea bought with money.
congratulations you get... Nothing
Everyone on earth loved SL not just india.
All of them never watch anything for more than 5 seconds
Lmao
Source: your ass.
iirc it's either a 50/50 or 70/30 split.
forever immortalized in the biggest anime award show with the most votes
nothing
Keep coping.
it had literally nothing during the 1st 6 eps before I dropped it
But Korean webtoons are all censored garbages in passive. I fear if Korean corpos like samsung(CJ), line and kakao enforce their censorship standard to Japanese anime more... pic rel is the example of Korean webtoon censorship. No bikinis allowed in Korean manhwa. As blue archive has no bikini since 2023. No bikini allowed in Korean media. Did solo leveling had swimsuit episode? Why didn't solo leveling trend in Japanese and Korean twitter for 25 weeks while Maomao and medalist did?
If chris-chan and ken-sama had a child
Big if true.
We dont care about Crunchyroll
Crunchyroll doesnt matter
Actually it kinda does but its not Japanese
Its botted
Its the crunchyroll staff who voted
Its rigged
Its jeets
It was jews
Its not popular
They were paid off
Actually the koreans paid them off
Its an engagement bot farm
Its the Americans
It flopped in Korea
It has no fanart
Actually it does but its AI
Actually it isnt but these other series have more art
Look at all this cope just because Solo Leveling is AOTY holy shit
This picture looks so generic
Why are so many of them balding fat guys with beards wearing glasses?
The rest went crazy you should watch it and second season.
Since Shinkai shilled Ne zha but it only earned 240M yen in Japan while GQX earned 3.0B yen in Japanese theatre. And seed freedom earned 5.4B yen. (And Koreans watched Thunderbolt more than Nezha too) It shows that Shinkai is gaijinaboo. Differs from actual Japanese popularity. Are Korean and Japanese people's taste bad?
But not CR. Gook leveling had JP Sony and US Sony.
Solo Leveling doesn't even get AI art, how sad.
Source: your ass.
Solo Leveling was made by A-1 Pictures, which is a subsidiary of Sony, who also own Crunchyroll. And the anime was licensed by Crunchyroll themselves. Also, bear in mind, these awards don't even take into account anime that hasn't streamed on this platform. This award is literally meaningless, but that won't stop all the 14-year-old fans of the series from thinking otherwise
I wonder how much money they got from gook?
I do not mind if manhwa gets animated by the Japanese, problem is they are looking for shit materials to pick. But then again nobody looks for it anyway
But why didn't it trend in Japanese/Korean twitter and namuwiki? Do Korean zoomers and Japanese have bad taste?
How come it had the most viewers worldwide actually watching it instead of posting hashtags on twitter and just easily won a popularity contest?
cope
there isn't nonshit manhwa
Westoids don't watch CGI bandshit.
Sony is still Sony. Same company keep coping.
But twitter trend is better choice to see anime popularity in real time view. Since it comes with screenshots mostly.
Generically awesome that is.
normies
Also, bear in mind, these awards don't even take into account anime that hasn't streamed on this platform.
All of the big ones were on crunchy. You lost. Hard.
This award is literally meaningless
Then why are you seething over it?
Solo retardeling sucks
Why fans of this sounds like pre AI revolution bots?
Yeah. Chalia bull has more art than sung jin woo, spite being boomer alien man. Chalia bull and kikeroga has more character than sung jin woo.
Crunchyroll
South Korean psyops
This is soft power propaganda because they hate Japanese
How is people posting on twitter more important than millions of people actually watching the new episode every week?
can't wait for SK to be nukes by the norks
You suck lmao. You LOST. Solo Leveling is AOTY. Cry about it in a corner.
But Mahoako wasn't in Crunchyroll for being lewd anime with lolis getting tortured and naked.
The world says otherwise.
Didnt reach the good part of DunMes
Kill yourself.
No one cares about that shit.
Ironic that it didn't trend in Korean twitter and it wasn't that popular in Korea since they watch medalist, sakaday, maomao more ironically... why is Korean adaptation not that popular between Korean weeaboos?
Add twitter screencaps to the list of cope
Add psyop and propaganda to the list of copes too
There no good parts lol
Solo leveling will never get an anime
SL will never get a second season
SL will never win an award
YOU ARE HERE
SL will never be the biggest media franchise of all time
Crunchyroll produced and exclusive to the platform anime wins at the Crunchyroll awards
No way... Also it's well known that they are mad at Toho since they are not offering any new shows to them exclusively anymore
Ironic that SL is the number one show on every streaming platform.
If Japanese people found out about this award, they'd probably think, 'Man, GAIJIN have terrible taste.' It’s honestly pretty embarrassing.
Probably the average CR user can't even understand that was just first season. Seriously...best OST? best main character? best ED? Anime of year?. Ridiculous.
Oh..and KnY worst arc still get two prizes.
It was rigged!
Cope harder.
They have and already know about these awards and they give it their blessing. Stay coping, you're literally a loser LMAO
India's influence on the world is growing every day
Shinkai says otherwise.
anon speaks on behalf of all Japanese
I kneel retard-sama...
Add gaijin to the list
that explains why hindu shill farms didnt win every category for SL
If it means more kino leveling then I'm in.
It's at least popular with normalfags. I'm more upset about Ninja Kamui winning best original. Who the fuck even liked that? Is it really just retards who don't know any of the nominees but don't wanna vote for a girls show?
Thank you saar
normalfaggot website award is won by the most normalfaggot show
didn't see that coming
The biggest anime director of all time gave his blessing.
So, Does Korean weeb have bad taste for not liking solo leveling that much? And most Korean weebs are zoomers,
while 40s in Korea(586 gen by their term) hate Japanese culture. Why do Korean weebs have bad taste?
Ninja Kamui winning best original proves these are literally the shill awards
Solo fags being proud of having a normalfag price
SL wins an award
"It's botted!"
SL doesn't win an award
"It's botted!"
You are biased for no reason. Keep coping.
Yes, not just for Japan but for the world. AOTY is all you need to know that you're wrong. Stay mad LOL
Its rigged
Only when it isnt
This is getting embarassing for you. What stage of grief is this? Not to worry though, you'll get to the acceptance stage soon enough. Solo Leveling is AOTY
Freiren was just overshadowed by Solo Leveling when it came to hype and overshadowed by Apothecary Diaries when it comes to overall success. Honestly, Apothecary Diaries should've won.
Didn't they fund this?
one anime director speaks on behalf of all Japanese
I kneel retard-sama...
But his opinion doesn't match Japanese popularity as Ne zha only earned 240B in Japan while Gcucks earned 3B and Seed freedom earned 5.4B yen in Japanese theatre.
Add "normalfag" to the list.
if it's so big why do they have to beg their fans for support to make 3rd season?
ep7 should already be a good hook
If you don't think ep11 and up are good, you probably just retarded and didn’t make it that far before dropping the show.
Name a better original. I'll wait.
Jujutsu Kaisen won last year and that was Toho, not Sony. So pathetic. Just admit that your slop wasn't good.
nah sl deserved it's win
Frieren still won Best Drama, Best Director, Best Supporting Character and Best Background Art. I don't think Apothecary Diaries won anything
shut up jeet
I kneel
I accept your concession.
kaho shibuya
missing a key occupation
heh
Every show needs help from the fans. Are you stupid bro?
if it's so big why do they have to beg their fans for support to make 3rd season?
The reason is because it not popular in Japan at all and that's where anime/manga makes the vast majority of its money. They are just getting nothing in the way of colabs or merch sales so would need a huge international audience to sustain it.
What I don't understand is why Solo Leveling is so anti-japanese?
I thought these "manhwa" webtoons creators were inspired by anime, manga and other weeb stuff? Do they like the weeb stuff but hate Japan for some reason?
No they don't
so would need a huge international audience to sustain it
Good thing they have that as shown by the anime awards.
Is this genuinely your first time seeing Koreans get angry about Japan?
Is this stage 2 or are we still in stage 1? Hard to tell since you keep jumping from one cope to another kek.
Is it really just retards who don't know any of the nominees but don't wanna vote for a girls show?
Yes
no one watches or buys a show
it doesn't get a second season
Are you fucking braindead or something???
They surpassed Japan with their first show, why would they look up to them?
the whole situation in a nutshell.
Thanks anon. It makes perfect sense.
But it needs to be way bigger than it is now, they are relying almost entirely on jeets buying Crunchyroll subscriptions. All the eggs in one basket, it has no other significant sources of revenue.
ITT jeets larping as winners because their shit fake anime won a fake award
Solo Leveling is shit.
Cuz it didn't sold lots of merch(shelfwarming in Japan and Korea's animate store), didn't sold BDs well(less than guild handler), didn't had collab with amusement and restaurants, and bandai even didn't made toys and plamodel for solo leveling(Demon slayer and bocchi had plamo from bandai,frieren got SHF from bandai). It didn't collab with USJ especially(Maomao had USJ collab).
Why couldn't solo leveling make a boom in Japan and Korea unlike demon slayer, JJK, bocchi, frieren, Uma, Gundam?
They need to cope somehow anon, even if what they are saying is not grounded to reality. This is called "dissociation"
Freiren was just overshadowed by Solo Leveling when it came to hype and overshadowed by Apothecary Diaries when it comes to overall success.
When it comes to the anime? What are you smoking?
She's not a JAV actress anymore though, you don't see the occupations for others say "Former McDonalds cashier" or something
BD sale says else.
That's not "help" dumbass jeet
No one who is a fan is going to stop watching this kino so it's guaranteed.
And why is it not popular in Korea either? It didn't trend in Korean twitter and they have rather watched medalist, sakaday, maomao. Do Koreans have bad taste?
seething about it
Solo Leveling is AOTY and it pains you to know this immutable fact. Keep crying though
winning something means you lose
You ok bro?
Did Solo leveling got toy or plamodel from bandai?
Physical media is out of style it's all about streaming now and of course solo leveling dominates on every streaming site.
I'm more annoyed with the slice of life category once again filled with romance and drama anime.
Every fucking anime award does this shit. It's like they don't even know what the genre means.
guess elon must be doing something right if gooks can't get it trending
kpopshitters are usually known as masters at botting youtube numbers
he needs toys
Pathetic cope holy shit.
Thats not help
Yes it is moron.
And Why did Koreans watch sakaday and maomao more than solo leveling then? And twitter trend shows popularity more than streaming sites which can be botted. And it didn't trend in Jap and Korean twitter for 25 weeks.
I know about the conflict between South Korea and Japan and how korean politicians complain about comfort women and stir up hatred against Japan but I thought manhwa creators had a more positive attidute towards Japan and liked japanese pop culture?
They surpassed Japan with their first show,
What?
Solo Levelign is AOTY to shill westerners and billions of jeets
That sounds about right
When is the Anime of the Decade vote? I want to get my account ready to vote for Aura Leveling.
I was talking about Apothecary Diaries overshadowing Frieren which I could see for the manga, but hardly for the anime.
Elon knows that Korean wave is shilled by globohomos. Solo leveling must be shilled by similar globohomo factions as well, since they know that Korean influence is immense enough to force Korean censorship standard to Japanese anime.
Your lucky that Solo Kinoing isn't a slice of life or it would dominate there too.
speak for yourself, i love telling everyone about my kitchenhand job because that's where my stories are
but I thought manhwa creators had a more positive attidute towards Japan and liked japanese pop culture?
Solo Leveling is a webtoon from 2017-2018? The webtoons today have next to no animosity towards Japan, they just redirected that ire towards the Catholic Church.
Streaming numbers are 10x the twitter numbers. More people stream a show and then don't tweet about it. Sorry to say bro, but you lost this one. Keep coping.
What?
Read the OP. Slower this time.
AOTY MUST fulfill a secret agenda
Get a grip.
That's because Chalia gets a shit ton of yume/fujo art. Solo Leveling only got a couple of selfest pictures from that group.
Jinwoo is more iconic than Goku and Luffy combined at this point.
Kill yourself
frieren is pro demon genocide
it would never win normie vote
BILLIONS of people love Solo Leveling
And don't you forget it.
It's hypocrisy. South Koreans also have a lot of national pride, and some act like they had it worse under Japanese occupation than Southeast Asians did. But at the same time, they’ve never really acknowledged or apologized for what happened in Vietnam. Their huge national pride plays a big part in that. Even now, there’s a lot of racism against Southeast Asians in SK, probably the most racist among East Asia. Quite ironic SK still calling out Asian hate and holding on to victimhood from the Japanese occupation when SEA had already grown a pair from it.
I was talking about why it has so much anti-japanese stuff in it. The webtoon. of course was created many years before these awards and had the anti-japanese stuff many years before that.
SAY HIS NAME
Kim Jong Un
But Frieren made lots of memes like "men likes shit like this","it's dark! I'm scared!", and dumb freiren face meme, aura decapitating herself meme, collabs and had SHF from bandai while Solo leveling didn't had remarkable meme and didn't trend in Japanese and Korean twitter, didn't had toy from bandai which makes toy from lots of shounens, sentai, precure and mechas.
people
Indians are not people. They're some weird malformed mutation of shit and scams.
Only 34 on imdb
imdb.com
holy mid
Only a tiny number of posts on X cared about that scene. Keeping coping.
billions of BOTS
fixed it for you
ah yes, ask the Japs to animate it for them
Wouldn't that require 10 subscriptions?
Another victory for India
Memes don't win the big awards. Sorry you found out this way.
Only first seasons should count for "anime of the year" awards, it'd lead to more variety when judges are forced to include more shows instead of having the same show.
Yes, and it was over apothecary Diaries in terms of popularity and scores, and over Solo Level as well in terms of scores.
Cuz twitter trend shows how the show is popular in certain nation in real time and easy to spread than streaming site which should be paid.
Another slopful year for anniemay
Jeets only know one line
The japanese were lucky to get a chance to animate this story.
Cry harder bikinischizo.
crunchyroll
user vote
Niggers loved le epic power fantasy, wozers!
Whats criminal is that "people" ITT actually care about the opinion of retards with crunchyroll accounts.
the implication is that if it was big it would have already have support so there is no need to pathetic begging
try to keep up small brain hindu
The streaming site has bigger numbers. Most anime watchers aren't using specific hashtags in a tweet after they watch a show. They'll make dinner or watch something else.
Imagine being a shitskin, lmao.
Crunchyroll has been shit since it was bought by the Jews at Sony
Yes, this is what the rabid SL haters fail to grasp, if its jeets, they sure have a fuckton of money just lying around to be able to do this. This is completely unrealistic to anyone with a brain.
If 'slop' means 'kino', then yeah, I guess you're right.
But why does he have less fanart than Chalia Bull and Bask Om tho? And they get more emote in DCinside than sung jin woo.
Physical media is dead. The streaming numbers alone will keep it going for six more seasons.
Wouldn't that require 10 subscriptions?
No, it means you made 10 throwaway email accounts
Repeating the same exact question over and over again
He's mindbroken. We got another one LMAO
Everyone uses AI now even actual artists. Go look at the number of genned SL images. There are tons.
bikinischizo vs turd world kakao shills
Truly an epic battle for the ages
Kim Jong Un
But Kim is from good Korea not Hell Joseon.
All of the big ones were on crunchy.
God, you are such a normalfag. Go enjoy your shonen and isekai shit.
Yeah and that's like 3 grand. Haters are deluded lol
SAAR we won the meaningless awards SAAR
our KINO AURA sung jin poo won SAAR
Solo levelin is BEST ANIME SAAR
Jeets are the driving force behind anime viewership now, deal with it
bikinischizo
I don't like that anon but I like to shit on gooks.
Is selling toys like gunpla and merch irrelevant for anime popularity?
Any other defense besides 'normalfag' bro? I'm getting tired of reading that one, yawn.
Rayan Sayyed
Shūmatsu Torein Doko e Iku? aired last year, to name one.
I meant for danbooru. Well, Koreans cannot access this site.
As we've seen from this award. Yes.
Everything is digital now.
What the heck is saar lol?
I'm so glad we won too though bro.
Then why are gamers obsessed with physical package for video games?
gooks are really good at rigging rankings and inflating stream counts.
It's just like the fake popularity of K-pop.
Is collab with USJ irrelevant either? Koreans cannot have global amusement park like USJ.
Koreans cannot access this site
No wonder SL isn't owning the site then. I bet they don't allow AI either.
They invented a word to describe the practice as well, sajaegi.
koreans deserve to die for creating this garbage
Gamers are nonstop seething about Solo Goding. Go back to Anon Babble idiots.
Yeah. When Korean zoomer males don't listen to K-pop. And solo leveling anime wasn't that popular in Korea spite being Korean adaptation. What went wrong? Seems that Korean zoomers got less nationalistic recently...
How come SL didn't win every award then? Bet you didn't think about that one, did you?
Debunked months ago by experts.
Cuz mostly Gwens and Jeets botted this, not actual Koreans.
No one cares about Gundam anymore.
It is called Sajaegi. And such streaming tech is popular between Korea shills.
So why didn't it win all the awards possible and only two if it's all bots? Face it the results were organic and SL won fair and square.
But here I thought it was all Indians. You can't even keep your cope consistent. LMAO
Whenever Korea gets involved in anime or manga, like with KAKAO allegedly attacking MangaDex or situations like this, it never ends well.
When it trends every time in Japanese twitter unlike solo leveling? No Korean and Chinese slop in this ranking.
It's not jeets or some tinfoil hair consipracy theory, it's simply what this guy said:
CR sub costs 300$?
wrong
You can fake results
No Crunchyroll awards in this ranking either.
I think you guys are taking this award thing way too seriously.
Cuz mostly jeets and gwen kpop shills use this sajaegi tech.
User votes are vulnerable to Botting as Golden stick award and TGA showed. TGA is mostly critics but golden stick award is mostly user vote.
Why didn't they give it number one in every category then?
Why does everyone keep mentioning India of all things
Holy meltdown.
Everything I don't like is a bot!
jeets are biggest shills of Solo leveling
Shut up.
I don't care about the award, I just hate that an entire medium is reduced to this. As if this garbage is the best the medium had to offer last year, when that couldn't be further from the truth. It just perpetuates the idea that this is all anime has to offer. I don't care about Solo Leveling fans being annoying either, because they're teens. They get a pass.
And Dungeon Meshi won Anon Babble's anime of the year. Both of these hold equal legitimacy so who gives a shit.
Yeah. Kakao, CJ(samsung) and Line are enforcing Korean censorship standard to Japanese anime recently. Since Japanese broadcast stations cocksuck korea and would glady accept Korean censorship standard without doubt since TBS and Fuji are being paid by CJ.
Solo Leveling is the only show with zero shills.
It was explained earlier
voter weight was split between CR staff and guests and voters so every staff voted against SL and it outweighted shill votes
How about Gwens in vietnam?
Wrong lmao
"I don't care about the award"
proceeds to seethe about the award
Anon...
But the results are fake you said.
I just hate that an entire medium is reduced to this
But it is. There are a few better animes but the reality is that NU-ANIME is this garbage. Jeets and Sony eployees might have rigged it but they would never do it in a way that would be too unfair and dishonest or it would hit the award's legitimacy
Right lmfao
You cared enough to reply.
Anon Babble's was botted like crazy.
this same cope
Is there even a more important award than this?
r/anime awards
What the fuck is sajaegi?
Solo Leveling will win that one too I bet.
what's the appeal of solo leveling?
Solo Leveling sub are all saying that Frieren should have won
Lmao
500 posts in under 4 hours
Solo Leveling won.
Wow, redditors are vocal and they are not happy
>Solo Leveling just got confirmed by crunchyroll to be the best anime of the last year
>Beating Frieren
>Beating Maomao
>Beating Dandadan
You can't make this shit up at this point
No one wants waifu shit.
well animated bang bang punchy. No there is no depth, or interesting characters, or interesting story telling, it's just bang bang punchy.
some gaijin normalfag "award"
I should care why?
It has the best source material ever made and people connect with that.
Cared enough to reply.
Do this many 13 year olds really watch anime on crunchyroll/netflix these days? I refuse to believe anyone over that age thinks this show is 'peak'. I guess most kids love the edgy 'aura farming' shit no matter what generation they belong to
Tokyo Anime Award
Because the CR shills demand we take their awards seriously for some reason. Exactly the same as when Tower of Gook was being shilled by CR.
There's no appeal, it's a retarded overrated fake anime full of low IQ <<<<<aura>>>>> moments.
Nobody nominated from the Frieren production actually turned up. They literally got an office goon with a Frieren plush to collect their awards
wow setheeting much
solo leveling song
voca.ro
Main guy just claps everyone in the show and ends up beating gods with zero pushback. To give you an idea it gets to the point where no other character in the entire show can fight the gods he is fighting so they might as well not exist. Basically just a massive power fantasy self insert with no stakes
bleach cour 3 should have won awards. best anime of last year
It means westiods like chunnishit.
Not surprising considering its opponents were all mid as fuck
Makes sense, look at all the discussion there is right now about the anime in Anon Babble, literally flooded with threads. Massive cultural impact!
Friedditren lost
Haha!
This entire thread is just Koreans and Koreans larping as someone else
Gook Leveling is more reddit than Frieren is.
Why can't Freirentards just accept that their slop was mid? Crazy
Show funded by Crunchyroll won a crunchyroll award
Of course
They can't even rig it right
But muh autistic elf
Wait, why didn't it win the animation category? That's literally what this series is famous for
kek. Even they can small bullshit.
WAHHHH!!!
WHY CANT PEOPLE LIKE MY SLICE OF LIFE ROM COM SLOP THAT RELEASES EVERY YEAR!!!!!!!!!!!!
who cares, aren't you satisfied with being the top anime in MAL?
Why the fuck you need more?
Let the solo levelingfags have this one.
lmao true
Crunchyroll Awards aka Shounenshit Awards
The only award shows that matters in Japan and to actual creators and studios are:
Tokyo Anime Award Festival
The big one. Industry professionals vote, not just fans. It covers categories like Best Animation of the Year, individual awards for animators, directors, and voice actors. It actually celebrates craft, not clout.
Japan Media Arts Festival Awards
Run by Japan’s Agency for Cultural Affairs. Super prestigious. If your anime wins here, it’s not just good, it’s recognized as meaningful art. This award doesn’t care how many cosplays your show got, it’s about innovation and excellence.
Let the solo levelingfags have this one.
Solo Leveling unironically doesn't deserve anything. I expect it will unleash a cancerous trend way worse than isekaislop.
romcom slop has done far more damage
Artwork
It focuses on the main story instead of spending an entire season on a single side story
Lazarus will win nexy year.
