I ♥ Two Syaorans from Tsubasa RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE and TRC!!! |
| Leiji Matsumoto is still relevant even he hasn't made any new anime for recent years other than Yamato remake? |
| Do you play Azure Lane? Then please join my fanclub https://myanimelist.net/clubs.php?cid=74907 |
| I would like to hear Nozawa's performance (didn't even know she was in this movie). Was this award given to Leiji Matsumoto for his career, his Galaxy Express animation works or a certain movie? @Sazanami-kai Matsumoto had no hand in this remake. It is a project from the Yamato "main creator" 's son. By the way, theoretically, Matsumoto participated only to designs and not more for the original saga (in reality, he suggested several changes compared to the creator/producer's original ideas). |
| I'm glad Koe no Katachi won the best Picture award. I haven't seen Kimi no na wa yet but congrats to Shinkai. |

VanishingKira said: Koe no Katachi and Makoto Shinkai gee how unexpected *sarcastic tone* Someone got salty. Totally didn't see that coming. |
| I haven't seen Koe no Katachi yet but I'm really happy it won ^^ The manga is amazing <3 |
 |
| congrats Koe no Katachi ! and congrats to Makoto Shinkai ! |
 |
| I heard good things about Koe no Katachi (movie) recently. Going to watch it pretty soon. Happy to see it getting the award though since I've enjoyed the manga. |
 |
| congratulation to all of them... can't wait somebody starting to choose being salty... |
 "If taking responsibility for a mistake that cannot be undone means death, it's not that hard to die. At least, not as hard as to live on." |
| A toast to more good movies. |
