Sugiyama Riho deserved it, Minare's voice acting was superb. Good to see Ueda Reina and Kitou Akari in the list too. I loved Ueda Reina as Nagafuji and ofc our Queen Ganyu. As for Kitou Akari both Kanata and Tsukasa was amazing.

Not too surprised to see Tsuda there. He's had a number of really nice roles lately and I feel like the adaptation of Gokushufudou will be carried on his shoulders with the recent PV... Saitou Souma has had a lot of really diverse roles recently as well, and his Moriarty is excellent. Hoping to see him here soon.

Am surprised to see Kamiya didn't win the Kamiya award though.

I'm glad that Tsuda won even if I didn't expect it. I'm excited to see his voice acting in some of the future anime (including to your eternity lol)

Not surprised to see Kenjirou Tsuda win, this dude is in literally everything now lol.
People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime.

Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait.

MAL is literally just anime Twitter as its own website lol.

Hiroshi Kamiya?
People are tired of him at this point.

Anyway, I am glad Kenjiro Tsuda is becoming bigger than ever, even though he was around since 90s.

Congratulations to Seiyu God Takehito Koyasu too...

I feel like the committee wanted every single VA of Kimetsu no Yaiba as the winner but that just looks very suspicious so they gave it to "special award" to not look bad to the fanbois....
