CATDOLL: "Your Name." won the Los Angeles Film Critics Association Award for Best Animation

Makoto Shinkai's animated film "Your Name." is the most successful Japanese animated film this year. In addition to the continuous rise in box office in the local market, it has also achieved good results in overseas releases and has won many awards. Today (December 5), Makoto Shinkai announced that "Your Name." won the Best Animation Award from the Los Angeles Film Critics Association. As a prelude to the Oscars early next year, the chances of "Your Name." being nominated for the Oscar for the Animated Feature Film Award have greatly increased.

"Your Name." was screened in Los Angeles from December 2 to December 8 to meet the Oscar nomination requirements. Makoto Shinkai himself flew to Los Angeles to participate in the promotional activities. Previously, Hayao Miyazaki's "Spirited Away" first won the Los Angeles Film Critics Association Best Animation Award, and then won the Oscar for Best Animated Feature Film of the year. "Your Name." won this award, which means that the chances of being nominated for the feature animation department have greatly increased. However, as for the award, this year's shortlisted works include super popular works such as "Zootopia", and other works are also not to be underestimated, so it is better not to expect too much.
