Animation of The Year
All anime released from December 1 of the year beforehand to November 30 of the previous year in Japan become candidates. The anime that represents the year in the works nominated to each section is chosen.
In the first year, the award was given to Spirited Away as 'Grand Prix'. In the second year, there was no award. Therefore, the 'Best Entry Awards' in the 'Notable Entrie' are often recognized as 'Grand Prix': Millennium Actress (film), Hanada Shōnen-shi (TV) and Sentō Yōsei Yukikaze (OVA)
