We discuss the 2025 Crunchyroll Anime Awards. In its ninth year, does this award show improve upon past issues and inspire enough confidence from the anime community to believe that it isn’t rigged? Sort of. We share our impressions on the actual ceremony and discuss each winner, including the highly debated winner for Anime of the Year.
