Gake no Ue no Ponyo

Films that won the Best Animation of the Year prize given by the Japan Academy Film Prize Association, first awarded in 2007.

The Tokyo Anime Awards started in 2002, but was named in 2005. The first, second and third award ceremonies were simply named 'Competition'. The award ceremonies were held at the Tokyo International Anime Fair (TAF) until 2013. In 2014, after the merger of the Tokyo International Anime Fair with the Anime Contents Expo and the formation of the AnimeJapan convention, the Tokyo Anime Awards was changed into a separate festival called Tokyo Anime Awards Festival (TAAF).

Since 2014, Tokyo Anime Award Festival has given an Anime of the Year Grand Prize in two categories, Film and Television.

The Oofuji Noburou Award (大藤信郎賞) is an animation award given at the Mainichi Film Awards. It is named after Japanese animator Noburou Oofuji.

Following the death of Noburou Oofuji in 1961, Mainichi established a new award in his honor to recognize animation excellence. A specialist in silhouette animation, Oofuji was one of the earliest Japanese animators to gain international recognition.

With the growth of the animation industry in Japan, the award in the 1980s came to be dominated by big budget studio productions, over the work of the independent animators for whose efforts it was originally established. To address this concern, the Animation Grand Award was established to reward large scale cinematic animation, enabling the Oofuji award to focus on shorter pieces again.

when exams are over and you wanna enjoy the summer

The scent of the sea, the smell of chlorine from the pool, and the tears that roll down your cheeks. The sea is as abundant as the sand. Below are animes where the MC is associated with the theme of water, or entities that belong to the sea. Water can be raindrops, the sea, the pool, and tears. It is the foundation of water that leads them to love, find purpose, compete, live or just have fun

SBS - the free to air channel with actual international content that everyone either spends 5 minutes watching or 3 hours watching, no in-between. They used to air a fair bit of anime alongside their normally scheduled programming, and you might even be able to catch a few Ghibli films every now and then today.

a compilation of anime you could convince your friends to watch, anime that doesn't even look like anime, or anime you grew up with because the concept of anime didn't exist yet. push your friends to watch (or admit they watched) anime :D

Anime to watch if you're bored/in the mood for some light-hearted enjoyment and nostalgia.

Animes which had more humour than I expected.

Summer means joy, sea, beach, swimming, sports, bright colors and of course friends!
And why not with a little action and sadness sometimes?

so there, you'll find all animes with summer vibes to watch at home during the vacations bc you have no friends !...

ey don't cry bro, we are the same...

...i wanted to add more animes but we can't add more than 50 entries 💀

Here's a list of actual comfort anime, that I have watched and can vouch for. These are shows you can fall asleep to, or watch after/during a mental breakdown. Peace and love on planet earth <3

Shows where some characters are written and portrayed outside what is considered the standard "man" or "woman". This is my first interest stack so I just wanted to have fun with it and recommend some animes I liked under this particular idea ;^)

And happy pride month~!
