On Anime
While Anime is a beloved animation style with a rich history and extensive following, our focus here leans towards other forms of animation. This is due to the immense popularity of Anime in online spaces, which is amply covered by other dedicated communities.
This doesn't mean that Anime related conversation is not allowed here, only that it's not our focus. For a dedicated Anime instance, check out ani.social.
On Technical Discussion
While our primary goal is to discuss animated media, conversations about animation techniques and the process of creating animation are also welcome. Whether you're a budding animator seeking to understand more about the industry, or a seasoned professional sharing your experiences, you're welcome here.

The nominees were:
From my outsider's perspective, this was a battle between Blue Eye Samurai and Scavengers Reign, with Netflix willing to put the weakest promo campaign behind Blue Eye Samurai winning out over HBO letting the superior Scavengers Reign utterly hang out to dry (after giving the series screening rights up to Netflix after all).
Joseph Bennett, Charles Huettner: Keep making great shit. You have fans. Crowd-fund if you have to. People are here for what you're serving.
Can somebody deconstruct the first paragraph for me? Non native english speaker here.
Out of the nominated shows the winner most likely would be Blue Eye Samurai or Scavengers Reign. Blue Eye Samurai won because Netflix did a small amount of advertising for it. Scavengers Reign is better but HBO Max did not advertise for it at all.
Oh.. Now I get it. Thanks.
