Process
The awards have two rounds of voting. In the first round, each judges will submit up to five candidates per category. The six candidates that got the highest number of cumulative nominations from the panel will the be included in the final list. During the voting period, which lasts for a week, the public can choose a single nominee per category per day. The winners for each category are the ones who received the most votes from the judges and the public.
Any anime that was produced primarily in Japan and was released legally on television or online in Japan from November of two years prior to September of the past year are eligible to be nominated. This means that, for the 7th edition, any anime that was released from November 2021 to September 2022 are eligible.[4][5]
