As you saw, this was a very loaded awards ceremony. In addition to all the victories of Jujutsu Kaisen, Demon Slayer, Oshi no Ko and Vinland Sagahighlights the fact that Emilio Treviño, a voice actor from Mexico, won an award for his performance as Denji in the dubbed version of Chainsaw Man, a role that he will surely resume when the film of this anime is released in the future. On related topics, we already know when the movie will be released. Spy x Family: Code White in Mexico. Likewise, this is the first trailer for the third season of One Punch Man.
Editor's Note:
I can't imagine how 2025 will manage to have a year as full of quality anime as 2024 was. Last year managed to offer a combination of long-awaited adaptations, high-quality continuations, and original productions that took us by surprise. Without a doubt, this can well be considered one of the best periods in this industry.
