Crunchyroll has revealed their slate of winners for the fifth annual Anime Awards! One of the best parts of being an anime fan is looking back on an entire year of releases and figuring out which new series come out on top. While the ComicBook.com staff is able to do this amongst ourselves with the Golden Issues, the best part is getting to see what the rest of the fandom enjoyed over the year.
