Just a bit of an update, the new {X4}-Best Producer-san category has been changed a bit. Instead of voting for a specific staff member and typing their name, you only need to vote for the role itself e.g. Director, Animator, Character Design and then the Series Name (e.g. Director / SSSS.Gridman). This is because it can often be difficult to find out who did what exactly and often times it's a team effort anyway. You can always leave a comment if you want to name names, and we will try to see if we can assign names when announcing winners if it does turn out to be clear cut.
A second small change is that Ongoing Series are only eligible for the -{X1}- [Best Ongoing] category whereas before they were also eligible for the -{D6}- [Best Credits Theme], and -{D7}- [Best Soundtrack] categories. It's a logistical thing. Not ideal but we don't think anybody was voting for Ongoing Series in those categories anyway. Another small change is that the voting period for the second phase will be just one week rather than two weeks (Nomination Phase will still be two weeks). This is something that I changed a while ago but neglected to mention but I just think it's better this way because every year I've noticed a huge loss in momentum after one week that often makes a second week pointless. I kept reminding myself to bring it up but always forgot every year. XP Sorry for the last minute changes. Everything's a bit last minute really. XP

What are the rules for movies this year? Someone I chat with thought that in previous AS Choice Awards the movie had to have had a North American release in the last year to qualify?
I'm mainly asking because I want to know if Maquia qualifies. It had a limited theatrical run in the US and Canada but isn't getting a disc release in those countries until February. Really appreciate the work you've put into making this happen again btw. Especially since I have so many shows I would like to nominate this year. |

Is it so hard to search for original JP name?

You know, each country has its own version of the title for a lot of things and it will be unfair using English ones just because some people cannot google the original title/do not like it.

It's an English speaking forum, I don't think it would be that bad. It is difficult to determine whether people remember the Japanese or the English name considering how everyone does it differently and there's no point changing it now anyway.
However, the Voting Phase will use English names. I already brought this up last time.

So for which categories out of everything are on-going series allowed to participate in? Because I saw a case of one series that's on-going to be nominated in another category by someone with no error being listed after the periodical tallying.

Wow, MAL still keeps using Krista Lenz for Historia, even though that alias probably wasn't even used once in the third season of attack on titan. Now this is even causing errors for people who call her "Historia Reiss" in the side-character nomination.

Oh that's who it is, I'll add the alias. Thanks.
You can just let me know if we need to add some extra characters in there. It's no big deal even if they don't exist on MAL (except for tie breaks, where they will get last pick).
