The Anime Trending platform has just revealed its big winners from the Spring 2022 slate, including Spy x Family, Kaguya-sama and Ao Ashi.
As we move into the 2022 Summer broadcasting slate, many fans are still digesting what was a fantastic Spring of anime content.
Whilst we will all have our own personal list of the best shows from the last slate, many fans were busy sharing their week-by-week opinions through Anime Trending.
Now, the platform has finally shared its final list – so which were the big Anime Trending winners from the 2022 Spring anime slate?
Anime of the Season – Kaguya-sama: Love is War
The Anime of the Season award went to the third season of Kaguya-sama: Love is War, titled “Ultra Romantic” which aired its 13-episode broadcast from April 9th – June 25th domestically in Japan.
As noted by Anime Trending on Twitter, the series is now the first show to win the coveted Anime of the Season award three times in the platform’s history.
Best New Anime of the season – Spy x Family
Unsurprisingly, the best new anime series of the 2022 Spring broadcasting slate went to Spy x Family. The series from CloverWorks and Wit Studios was extremely competitive with Kaguya-sama across its 12-episode broadcast but was ultimately pipped at the post by the rom-com series.
