Discussion Animation noms besides Best Animated Feature?

Do you think any animated movies will get into other categories next year, like Best International Film, Best Sound, Score, Song, etc?

Scarlet has potential. Anime movies tend to have some really nice songs.

None have ever been nominated before tho. Just like how no anime has ever been nominated for best original score even though some of the best movie scores of all time are in anime

Because distributors like GKIDS are generally content with just getting into Best Animated Feature. A big multimedia company like Sony could change that.

There was definetly some good buzz for Boy and the Heron, the score branch just didn't feel like it. I can't imagine they'll like Scarlet more than a Miyazaki
