Anime Awards Season Preview 2023

The CaliConBlogCast

On this episode of the CaliConBlogCast, the crew break down the nominations for both the Crunchyroll Anime Awards and the Anime Trending Awards. We also discuss Matthew's prediction of more Attack on Titan coming true and why he's not buying Studio MAPPA's explanation; Anime Expo and the expectations of registering AND securing a hotel ON THE SAME DAY; & an AI VTuber getting banned because when AI interacts with humans, you know where this is leading to and it usually involves Nazis. Plus we lightly touch on the releases of Persona 3 Portable and Persona 4 Golden on modern consoles & preview next week's deep dive into clickbait and gaming journalists that realize just how old these games really are...in 2023.
