One more time, Crunchyroll Anime Awards They have been held on March 4, 2023, but this time in Tokyo (Japan) and presented by Sally Amaki and Jon Kabira. After the voting of millions of fans around the world, we already know which anime has risen as the best of 2022 and it is not even the last season of shingeki no kyojin, nor the second of Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba.
Cyberpunk: Edgerunners from Netflix has been the one that has risen as the best anime of 2022. The spin-off of the CD Projekt Red video game in anime format has finally been the one that has managed to win this precious award, leaving behind other series such as Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba – Season 2, Shingeki no Kyojin – Last Season – Part 2, Lycoris Recoil, Ranking of Kings (Cour 2) and SPY x FAMILY.
Despite the fact that none of the most famous anime of the past year has not achieved such a precious award, Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba was made with another 5 awards, like shingeki no kyojin who managed to win 6 prizes or SPY x FAMILY with 4, among others.
