The Apothecary Diaries and Frieren deserved more recognition at the CR Awards. I’ve met more real life fans of those than SL.

The most popular will always win, just go on YouTuber polls and you’ll see.

No way. Solo leveling absolutely blew up this year on social media. It was fucking everywhere.

That shouldn’t be the determining factor of an award…

I never said that. OP said they met more real life fans of those than SL while solo leveling reach way more of the general audience. I do like those shows more than solo leveling.

I genuinely have met more people who had heard of and liked Frieren more than I have people who watched SL. I think SL hit the younger international market so that’s probably why

Not to say I dislike SL, but since it was SL season one being voted on in the awards, I honestly don’t think season 1 should’ve won since it was season two that people liked better. When 2026 comes around people can vote on season 2 and then it’ll make more sense. I’m pretty sure SL she most popular Manwha of all time though so this was bound to happen anyway lol

think about it. bc a show has a bigger following, then it makes sense that that’s the anime that won. honestly i’ve never heard a word about apothecary diaries or whatever the other one was that people were butthurt about, but i know for a fact that the dub voice overs in SL did better than 9/10 anime’s that i watch in dub. again, most likely another key factor in solo leveling winning
