Submit Nominations Here
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.

What is considered a 2024 anime?
If the series started in 2023 but ends in 2024, does it count?
What if it starts in 2024 but is going to end in 2025?
Good question, I will add this to my meta post about this.
I am taking a broad view of 2024 anime. Basically, if it broadcast in the calendar year of 2024, it is fair game. That means that stuff that ran into 2024 from Fall 2023 is ok (Frieren, Apothecary, etc.). Also, stuff that will continue on into 2025 is ok (Orb, Re:Zero, etc.). The one exception to that would be OP/ED. So, Frieren OP1, which only aired in 2023, would not be eligible, but Frieren OP2 would be.
Oh shoot! I hadn’t thought about shows that started in 2023! I would’ve definitely nominated Apothecary for some stuff, particularly Best Drama.
For the nomination round, it is fine to submit multiple times if you want to submit more than three things. It’s my bad for not clarifying earlier.
