Submit Nominations Here

Previous Thread | Next Thread

Hey everybody! A couple days ago, @NineSwords@ani.social reached out to me with an idea. Why don’t we try to set up some year-end awards for the communities we moderate? Well, a bit of back and forth, and today, I am glad to announce that we have opened nominations for the 2024 Lemmy Anime Awards. The nomination round will remain open until I post next week’s general discussion thread (usually late Sunday/early Monday US time). Note that there are partner awards for the manga and light novel communities as well.

Like normal, feel free to also use this thread just like you would a normal discussion thread.

As always, remember to be mindful of spoilers. If you want to know more about how to handle spoilers in this community, check the guide here (also linked in the sidebar).

I spent WAAAAAY too much time on MyAnimeList narrowing down my choices. I felt like there wasn’t a whole lot of suspense anime to pick from, and Adventure wasn’t a category. I also thought Isekai/Reincarnation would get its own category but I guess we can just lump that in with Fantasy for the most part.

Seriously though, in some categories I had a really hard time narrowing it down to just 3, and in others I left spots blank simply because there wasn’t much I had seen in that category at all. I guess that’s normal though.

IKR? I spent too much time weeding out stuff that I wanted to nominate, but didn’t actually show up in 2024…

I thought about making a category for isekai, but decided against it as most isekai are basically fantasy with extra steps (my personal opinion). However, most of them do tend to fit nicely into another category as well (fantasy, slice of life, etc.), so I decided against making a dedicated category for it.

I do allow you to submit the nominations multiple times if you really want to nominate more than three things. 😉

I think it’s more convenient if there are more than 3 textboxes per category so that we can submit all of our nominations in one form instead of having to submit the form multiple times.

That’s fair, but I can’t edit that aspect of the survey at this point without closing it down, editing it, and then re-opening it. The way this piece of software is written, that would result in wiping away all the responses that have been gathered so far and creating a new link for the updated survey. Feedback received for next year though!

Haha, true. And a lot of isekai is isekai in name only, where the fact he’s in another world NEVER comes up ever.

Oh? Well there goes my afternoon… maybe… maybe not XD

Anyway, thanks for putting this together!
