Every Crunchyroll Anime Awards 2020 Winner, Including Anime Of The Year

Crunchyroll has now announced all the winners of the Anime Awards 2020. This year's show saw 19 awards given out and, much like last year, it was a pretty even spread of winners across all the categories.

Both Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba and Kaguya-Sama: Love is War tied for the most awards--both won three categories each. Demon Slayer came out on top in the spot that matters most though, winning Anime of the Year. The Shonen series also won Best Boy (Tanjiro Kamado) and Best Fight Scene (Tanjiro & Nezuko vs. Rui). Love is War, on the other hand, went home with Best Ending Sequence ("♪ Chikatto Chika Chikaa♡" performed by Konomi Kohara), Best Couple (Kaguya Shinomiya & Miyuki Shirogane), and Best Comedy.

Though a vast majority of the categories went to shows that you can watch on Crunchyroll, a few exclusives from other streaming services managed to secure awards as well. Netflix's Carole & Tuesday won Best Score (composed by Mocky), for example. Amazon Prime Video's Dororo won Best Character Design, and the streaming service's acclaimed historical fiction series Vinland Saga won Best Drama.

The winners for each category are listed below. We also have an article on the full list of nominees for each category if you need a quick refresher on what the competition looked like.

During the Anime Awards, Crunchyroll also announced four anime coming to the service in 2020. One is simply a continuation of an existing series--That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime is returning for a second season this fall. The other three, however, are brand-new. In April 2020, both My Next Life As a Villainess: All Routes Lead to Doom and The 8th Son-Are You Kidding Me will debut. So I'm a Spider, So What is also coming to Crunchyroll in 2020, though a release window has not been announced.
