“Japan Anime Trend Awards 2024” Anime Topic Award “TV Anime Category” goes to “Re:Zero”! ABEMA live broadcast

Welcome back to the I Am Anime website

The new future TV “ABEMA” will broadcast Japan’s largest anime award “Japan Anime Trend Award 2024” on the “Anime SPECIAL Channel” from 19:00 on December 26th. During the program, ABEMA will hold a “Japan Anime Trend Awards Ceremony” where ABEMA will conduct a rigorous screening based on data compiled by each major media and announce the award-winning works in each category.
The Anime Topic Award “TV Anime Category” has been decided to be “Re:ZERO -Starting Life in Another World 3rd Season”.

At the “Japan Anime Trend Awards 2024”, we will look back at the trends of 2024 and introduce hot works of 2025. The main MC will be Yuki Iwai of Haraichi, and the sub MC will be Rika Adachi. Guest appearances include anime-loving celebrities such as Iidaro Amatsu, Aozora Tokui, and Tatsuomi Hamada.

“Re:ZERO -Starting Life in Another World 3rd Season” has been selected for the “TV Animation Category” of the Anime Topic Award, which picks out anime that have become a hot topic in 2024.

This work is an animated version of Chapter 5, which is particularly popular in the original work, so it received a lot of attention even before it aired. The total number of views of the post where the key visual was released on X exceeded 20 million, and it became a hot topic even before the broadcast. Immediately before the broadcast, the first episode of the 3rd season, “Theatrical Malice,” was screened in advance at theaters, and a wide range of promotional measures were taken, including holding red carpet events in Tokyo and running large advertisements for three consecutive weeks.
After it began airing, it remained at the top of ABEMA’s viewership rankings, and even though it was a sequel, its popularity remained undiminished, and it received the award because it had a large number of related posts on X.

This time, Yusuke Kobayashi, who plays the main character, Natsuki Subaru, appeared. “I’m glad that people are still talking about it even after eight years, and this year we held many events overseas, and the enthusiasm from overseas people was amazing,” he said of his work on this work. I looked back.

As the second half of the 3rd season, the “Counterattack”, begins on February 5, 2025, “While there is an exhilarating feeling of releasing all the frustrations accumulated in the “Assault” at once, there are also a few sprinklings here and there. It’s reminiscent of “Re:Zero,” and has some serious plot twists, so I think it’ll be even cooler than the “Assault Edition,” so please look forward to it.”
