While Joey and Aki were disappointed with the lack of Anime nominations at the Oscars, they want to talk all things Anime Awards. Anime's answer to the Oscars were on recently; the Crunchyroll Anime Awards! Joey and Aki have some thoughts about the winners and what films they think deserved to win. The duo also think the awards system needs a change; maybe they need to break it into 2 sections: fan voted awards and academy voted awards. There's a few problems with the Crunchyroll Awards (they'll spell it out for you). But, it's still very cool of them to make an awards show dedicated to Anime.
