Space Heater Chat - June 20 2026: Where Are Anime Awards Trending?
Anime Trending (https://www.anitrendz.com)’s William Moo sits down with Mike to talk about his time on the judging panel for the recent Crunchyroll Anime Awards and the future of anime awards in general. Another angle on the “Physical vs Digital” debate, light novels and manga with respect to anime seasons. And then Mike gives some quick thoughts after seeing the live action version of Five Centimeters Per Second (https://scrmbl.com/post/five-centimeters-per-second-live-action-review), and the lack of opportunity to see more Japanese live action movies outside of Japan.
Producer's Note: We realize that much of this discussion might actually be out of date now. But we do feel (like with a lot of things we talk about), it'll find a way to become a conversation again
