IKR? I spent too much time weeding out stuff that I wanted to nominate, but didn’t actually show up in 2024…
Comment on Opening Up Nominations for the Inaugural Lemmy Anime Awards [2024, Week 50]

I spent WAAAAAY too much time on MyAnimeList narrowing down my choices. I felt like there wasn’t a whole lot of suspense anime to pick from, and Adventure wasn’t a category. I also thought Isekai/Reincarnation would get its own category but I guess we can just lump that in with Fantasy for the most part.
Seriously though, in some categories I had a really hard time narrowing it down to just 3, and in others I left spots blank simply because there wasn’t much I had seen in that category at all. I guess that’s normal though.

I thought about making a category for isekai, but decided against it as most isekai are basically fantasy with extra steps (my personal opinion). However, most of them do tend to fit nicely into another category as well (fantasy, slice of life, etc.), so I decided against making a dedicated category for it.
I do allow you to submit the nominations multiple times if you really want to nominate more than three things. 😉

Haha, true. And a lot of isekai is isekai in name only, where the fact he’s in another world NEVER comes up ever.
Oh? Well there goes my afternoon… maybe… maybe not XD
Anyway, thanks for putting this together!

I think it’s more convenient if there are more than 3 textboxes per category so that we can submit all of our nominations in one form instead of having to submit the form multiple times.

That’s fair, but I can’t edit that aspect of the survey at this point without closing it down, editing it, and then re-opening it. The way this piece of software is written, that would result in wiping away all the responses that have been gathered so far and creating a new link for the updated survey. Feedback received for next year though!
