The results are in for our 2021 OVA-ies TV Animation Awards! After 268 votes cast, the winners in five categories have been determined.
The Owl House was the big winner this year, taking home Best Show in addition to Luz for Best Main Character and Amity for Best Supporting Character. Amphibia won Best Episode for “True Colors” and Centaurworld won Best New Show.
How the results were calculated: final placement was determined by an averaging of the percentages of the Open Vote and the Internal Vote of our patrons and staff.
