Before I get to the results, I really want to tip my cap to Haak and felix on their artwork for this year's AS Choice Awards. Both the artwork used during the voting phase, and the artwork used for these banners, is excellent. The 2015 banners are proably the best set of AS Choice Awards banners I've seen. Awesome work, guys!
Overall, I'm very pleased with these results. 11 of my votes ended up being for winners, and almost all of my favorite 2015 anime shows managed to win something. I'm glad to see Shirobako, Shigatsu, Akatsuki no Yona, and One-Punch Man all do well - Each taking home two or more awards. What I'm most pleased with is Love Live! winning Best Movie - A nice way to cap off the original μ's continuity, and to have one last firework for one of the most heartwarming and magical anime properties I've watched. For the awards in general, I like how no anime property dominated this year. I don't think any one anime IP took home more than 3 awards. Fate/Stay Night UBW did not end up running away with it, and I think they were worthy winners in the three categories they did win. The only thing I find slightly disappointing is Hibike! Euphonium winning nothing. But ah well, they'll get another chance with its 2nd season airing later this year.

Having gotten most of my salt out of the way after the nomination round, I have few complaints about these results. Almost everything I voted for in the voting phase won, and I'm glad to see Shirobako and Akatsuki no Yona get this level of appreciation.
On another note, ASuki should really watch Houkago no Pleiades. Seriously. It's glorious, the secret shining jewel of 2015. Watch it! |

And I don't know if any anime show combines thought-provoking sci-fi with glorious visuals with magical girl-style fantasy quite like Houkago does!

Tokyo Anime Award are having their own award for last year anime. No winner for each genre, just overall winner.
Theatrical TV http://www.crunchyroll.com/anime-new...year-finalists 2 of top 4 Animesuki Best TV series, Shirobako and OPM are in the finalists. So Animesuki and Japan do have similar taste to certain extent. |

Count me in as someone else that started Shirobako thanks to the poll here. It started off a bit slow but I grew fond of the characters and I'm learning more about the process of making an anime. I'm more than halfway through the series and I have to say so far it's a wonderful and enjoyable series.

In my case, I haven't even noticed, but I'm already at episode 21!!! If I had watched it earlier it probably would have influenced my votes. It's good to see that even if you don't agree with some of the choices, good anime is most of the time recognised.

Doubly so because I could have given it the two points it needed to tie with Working S3 had I voted this year. But I decided to stay out since there were too many top contenders I hadn't seen/finished across quite a few categories. Oops.
