When it comes to anime awards outside of Japan, there are quite a few, but none of them stand out as much as Crunchyroll’s Anime Awards. These awards take place every year and determine the best in multiple categories, the most awaited one being the Anime of the Year award. The winner of Anime of the Year is usually the most popular series, chosen by both the jury and fans. In 2025, it was Solo Leveling, but in 2026, that might change.
