American Anime Awards
BABY, I WANT IT HARDER.
Current Mood: Enraged
So I watched the First Annual American Anime Awards last night and let's just say that I was truly disappointed at who won for Best Male Actor:
Vic Mignogna.
He was up against
Johnny Yong Bosch (Akira, Bleach, Eureka 7)
Crispin Freeman (Hellsing Ultimate, Noein, Utena)
Richard Hayworth (Rurouni Kenshin)
Yuri Lowenthal (Naruto)
Now, explain to me how someone who doesn't even change his voice in the booth can win against Johnny who--the first time I heard him in Eureka--I couldn't even tell that it was him.
I believe that these awards weren't based on talent, merely the popularity of the anime or how much the voice actor kisses ass.
And to think, Vic started crying when he won his award.
Get over it, you little drama cunt.
I honestly hate him and Fullmetal Alchemist.
Out of the 12 categories, FMA won 5 awards.
Best Anime Theme Song (which GitS's "Rise" or Bleach's "Asterisk" should have won)
Best Cast (which I can allow because Chris Sabat is in that cast)
Best Long Series (bullshit--Samurai Champloo is amazing compared to the story of two retarded brothers)
And Best DVD Package Design
The only award that had justice to it was Best Actress where Mary Elizabeth McGlynn won for her role as Major Kusanagi in Ghost in the Shell.
Not to mention that she's Kurenai and sings beautifully in Silent Hill 3 and 4.
That is a voice actor that has talent,
compared to someone who just goes into the booth and doesn't put any effort into their voice.
Now, although he wasn't a nominee, Séan Schemmel should have had that award in his hand.
Who can you honestly say can go into a booth,
scream their lungs, heart, and soul out to bring this character to life?
If you don't know who Séan Schemmel is, he voices Goku from Dragon Ball Z.
I bet you didn't know that he passed-out in the booth while 'powering up.'
I don't care who you are,
that is devotion to his passion, fans, and the character.
