hey does nobody else think it’s absolute bullshit how Banana Fish got nominated for one award only (Best Director) in the Crunchyroll Anime Awards despite being one of the best anime of the year, with an amazing plot, three dimensional characters with depth, and a great OP and Ending sequence?

I am especially fucking angry about Uchida Yuuma not being nominated for Best JP VA for the amazing and heartbreaking performance he gave as Ash’s voice actor. His monologue in Episode 19 stands out the most to me, and absolutely made me bawl my eyes out because it was that emotional.

It’s almost like, and hear me out this might sound crazy, Banana Fish is being written off as a Yaoi and subsequently given no attention, nor any respect. This, despite the fact that it’s absolutely not a fucking Yaoi.

Banana fish is a harrowing tale of a teenager never getting the chance to grow up normally, it’s a story of trauma and trying to overcome that trauma. It’s a story of revenge, and it’s a story of hope and hope lost. It’s also a story of love and how it can save you. The fact that they consider everything else in the story irrelevant since that two men happen to love each is horseshit. Banana fish, along with it’s story has fucking awesome action sequences and political intrigue that keep it interesting and keep you on the edge of your seat.

In conclusion fuck y'all, I’m not voting for shit these “"anime awards”“” ✌✌
