Kacey Musgraves Teases Australian Tour At Anime Awards
The win sparked some debate with fans, following Solo Levelling's eight other awards across multiple categories. One user in the r/SoloLeveling Reddit thread said they were "genuinely surprised" at the sweep, with another defending it — "Let's not pretend that Solo Leveling isn't a fun watch". Country music heavy hitter, Kacey Musgraves hit the stage to announce the award of the night, in a Sailor Moon-inspired outfit no less. Kacey's love for anime isn't known to everyone but listeners of her most recent album, Deeper Well would be familiar with the song "Anime Eyes" — where she references famous Japanese animator Hayao Miyazaki and fan-fave, Sailor Moon. The track is inspired by the exaggerated, animated reactions you'd see from anime character in love. Ahead of her Anime Awards appearance, we sat down with the "Rainbow" singer to dive into where her anime obsession started, coming back to her roots at Lost Highway Records and Australian touring plans. BFOZ: Why was it important for you to come to Tokyo and present at the Crunchyroll Anime Awards? BFOZ: Speaking of coming back, you've recently returned to your roots at Lost Highway Records. What can fans expect from the move? Kasey: That was my first label home, and then it got shut down shortly after. So for it to be resurrected and me being a big part of that and recording a song that was written in the 40s, and my grandpa was speaking on the song, it was really special. BFOZ: Some people might find that country music and anime are worlds apart — does it ever feel strange bringing those two universes together? BFOZ: You mentioned this on stage during the Deeper Well tour but we'd love to dig a little deeper. What was the inspiration behind your song "Anime Eyes"? Kasey: I think that American animators tend to, how do I say it? I think they tend to, what the fuck is the word? underestimate. I think American children programs can underestimate the viewer, and I love that with Japanese animation there's just so much emotion and put in moments between moments. It's hard to explain, but it's just so delicate and nuanced and I don't know. It's just special. And I just fell in love with that and yeah, it's awesome. BFOZ: Coming into the anime world very young, what role does it play in your life now? BFOZ: Are there any particular favourites that you gravitate towards to get that escape? BFOZ: And finally, if it were somehow possible to go and live in an anime universe, which one would it be? What were your thoughts on the 2025 Crunchyroll Anime Awards?

Country music star Kacey Musgraves stuns fans after debuting wild anime-inspired look: 'Didn't recognize her!'
Country music darling Kacey Musgraves stunned her fans this week after debuting a wild new look at the Crunchyroll Anime Awards in Tokyo. Instead of one of her usual stylish cowgirl getups, the High Horse hitmaker transformed herself into a character from the iconic Japanese series Sailor Moon. The 36-year-old rocked Sailor Moon's signature 'meatball head' buns and trailing pigtails, which were so long they cascaded down past her waist. She added the Sailor-themed schoolgirl outfit to complete the look, but wore it in black instead of the usual blue and white. Fans online were blown away by the look, with one writing, 'Sailor Moon's got nothing on her!' A second commented, 'Just when I think she couldn't possibly be anymore beautiful, she goes and does this.' Another wrote, 'Country music? That explains why I don't know her,' while a fourth admitted that they didn't recognize her at first. Kacey wasn't the only celebrity at the event, with Japanese-British pop star Rina Sawayama also attending. Instead of going in cosplay, Rina rocked an extravagant designer ensemble consisting of a puffy red frock from Marc Jacobs and sleek black stilettos from Jimmy Choo. Other stars at the event included boxer Ben Whittaker, Brazilian drag queen Pabllo Vittar, and Chilean singer Paloma Mami. It comes after the eight-time Grammy winner revealed that she has significantly cut back on her marijuana use during an interview with The Hollywood Reporter. Although she laughed off the notion that she is completely sober, the songstress set the record straight on whether she is still gets high and how often. 'I never said I don't ever partake,' she told the outlet. 'I just don't wake up and hit a gravity bong the size of my face anymore, which is what I did for a long time. But, hey, more power to whatever suits you.' Last year, it was widely reported that Golden Hour hitmaker was done with cannabis after she told The Cut that pot was 'not for this chapter' of her life. 'Maybe later, when I'm a 60-year-old lady with nothing to do and I'm just doing pottery all day, maybe. We'll see,' she said, at the time. Still, she said she wasn't quitting all mind-bending substances. During the 2024 interview, Musgraves also confessed to being a fan of psilocybin, the naturally occurring psychedelic compound produced by more than 200 species of fungi, aka magic mushrooms. 'When used with intention, I think it's a massive dose of compassion and reverence for nature, fellow humans, yourself,' she claimed to the outlet. In the title track to her sixth studio album, Deeper Well, released last year, she admitted that she 'used to wake and bake.' After those eyebrow-raising lyrics, she went on to declare she was 'getting rid of the habits that' she feels are 'real good at wasting' her time. During her chat with THR, Musgraves also reflected on how her 2013 track, Follow Your Arrow, which embraces weed and homosexuality, upset a lot of conservatives. 'Oh my gosh, it was so controversial. I was told not to [release the song] and all these reasons why,' she recalled to THR. 'I was nervous... it ended up tanking — it was banned by country radio.' Still, the singer insists she would never had traded that 'for the love and the people it brought' into her world. 'I'm not going to present a watered-down version of myself to be accepted,' she explained. 'Anyway, it ended up working out.'

Crunchyroll Anime Awards: ‘Solo Leveling,' ‘Look Back' Big Winners at Star-Studded Tokyo Ceremony
Solo Leveling was the big winner Sunday night at the 2025 Crunchyroll Anime Awards, taking home anime of the year, best action, best new series, and multiple performance and music honors in a starry ceremony that brought together anime's most passionate global fans. Held at the Grand Prince Hotel Shin Takanawa in Tokyo, the annual celebration honored the top talent in Japanese animation across 28 categories — drawing a record-breaking 51 million fan votes worldwide to decide the winners. In the feature film category, Look Back, the emotional adaptation of Tatsuki Fujimoto's one-shot manga, earned Film of the Year, while fan-favorite Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba added to its legacy with best continuing series and best animation. The genre-defying Dan Da Dan picked up several creative awards, including best opening sequence, best anime song, and best character design. More from The Hollywood Reporter Viennale Sets Retrospective on Dutch Director Digna Sinke, Including New Film 'Key to Heaven' Marcel Ophuls, 'Sorrow and the Pity' Documentarian, Dies at 97 'Code of Silence' Writer Catherine Moulton Knows: "Lip Readers Are Detectives" Hosted for the third year in a row by voice actress Sally Amaki and entertainer Jon Kabira, this year's show again welcomed a diverse slate of celebrity presenters, further underlining anime's global appeal. Appearances were made by Grammy winner Kacey Musgraves, Stranger Things stars Finn Wolfhard and Gaten Matarazzo, Latin music icon J Balvin, Japanese actor Kanata Hongo and Japanese Academy Award-winner Mayu Matsuoka. Also on hand were singer Rina Sawayama, Brazilian pop star Pabllo Vittar, model Saya Ichikawa, actor Dean Fujioka and Damiano David of Maneskin fame. The night's most poignant moment came when Attack on Titan was awarded Crunchyroll's first-ever Global Impact Award, a new honor recognizing a franchise's profound influence on anime and global pop culture. Director Yuichiro Hayashi accepted the award on behalf of studio Mappa and the series' many creators, following the release of Attack on Titan: The Last Attack in late 2024, which concluded the long-running saga. Fans were also treated to live performances from some of anime music's biggest acts, including Creepy Nuts with their viral hit 'Bling-Bang-Bang-Born' from Mashle: Magic and Muscles, Japanese rock legends Flow with 'Days' in honor of Eureka Seven, and a three-song medley by J-pop star Lisa, including her Demon Slayer anthem 'Gurenge.' 'Fans form deep emotional connections to anime. These are not just series, films or songs, but rather works of art that help define the identity of anime fans,' said Rahul Purini, president of Crunchyroll. 'With an incredible 51 million votes this year, the 2025 Anime Awards are celebrating the creators in Japan who have captured the hearts of fans and are powering anime's prominence in global pop culture.' Crunchyroll partnered with Sony Music Solutions Inc. and Dempsey Productions to deliver the high-energy show, which will be available to stream via Crunchyroll's YouTube and Twitch channels, as well as Sony Pictures Core and other Sony Group platforms. Sony Group has identified anime as a key pillar of its growth strategy, with Crunchyroll sitting at the center of its holdings in the sector. On Sony's most recent earnings call in May, the conglomerate revealed that Crunchyroll now counts 17 million subscribers worldwide. Crunchyroll, Aniplex and Sony Pictures will collaborate later this year on the North American and international release of Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba Infinity Castle, a trilogy of films that concludes what is currently the world's most bankable anime franchise. Crunchyroll and Aniplex are also co-producing an anime series based on the blockbuster samurai adventure PlayStation game Ghost of Tsushima.

Crunchyroll Anime Awards 2025: Fan-favorite action spectacle ‘Solo Leveling' topples fronturunner ‘Frieren' in massive populist upset
In a polarising turn of events, Solo Leveling has emerged as the undisputed champion of the 2025 Crunchyroll Anime Awards, walking away with a staggering seven trophies, including the coveted Anime of the Year. The community discourse has been lined with an undercurrent of discontent, as fans and critics alike questioned whether the action juggernaut had truly bested what many hail as one of the most poignant anime of the decade. For the legions of fans for the South Korean manhwa-turned-anime, it was vindication. For many others, especially devotees of Frieren: Beyond Journey's End, it felt like betrayal. Held at the Grand Prince Hotel Shin Takanawa in Tokyo, the ninth edition of the Crunchyroll Anime Awards drew an unprecedented 51 million votes from more than 200 countries. With celebrities like Kacey Musgraves, Gaten Matarazzo, Rina Sawayama, and J Balvin presenting awards, the event had the trappings of international spectacle. Yet, in the aftermath of the ceremony, the spotlight remains fixed on a single question: did Solo Leveling truly deserve to sweep the night? Solo Leveling wins Anime of the Year at the 2025 #AnimeAwards! 🏆 — The Anime Awards (@TheAnimeAwards) May 25, 2025 Adapted from Chugong's beloved webtoon, Solo Leveling follows Sung Jinwoo, a once-weak hunter who rises through brutal dungeons to become humanity's ultimate weapon. A-1 Pictures left no pixel unpolished, delivering adrenaline-fueled visuals, music from Attack on Titan veteran, Hiroyuki Sawano, and a relentless narrative tempo that captured the imagination of millions. The anime took home awards for Best Action, Best Score, Best Ending Sequence, Best Main Character, Best New Series, and multiple voice performance honors alongside Anime of the Year. The upset over Frieren's melancholic meditation on time, loss, and legacy, was met with outcry from segments of the anime community. Directed by Keiichiro Saito and animated by Madhouse, Frieren was praised for its emotional depth and gentle storytelling, following an immortal elf mage reckoning with the mortality of her long-gone comrades. The contrast between the two shows could not have been starker. Solo Leveling offered a speedy spectacle, while Frieren gradually unfolded like a contemplative novel. Frieren didn't walk away entirely empty-handed though — it won Best Drama, Best Background Art, Best Supporting Character (Fern), and Best Director for Saito. Yet the absence of the top honour has loomed large. The show has consistently topped fan-rating charts since early 2024, including MyAnimeList and Anime News Network, and many assumed it was the obvious frontrunner. Straddling the demands of blockbuster appeal and the yearning for introspective artistry, the Solo Leveling–Frieren face-off offers up a microcosm to the state of the anime community today. The situation speaks to a deeper tension in the anime world between artistry and populism. Crunchyroll's open voting format, which prioritises fan engagement over critical evaluation, has long been a subject of debate. And this year's outcome may have sharpened that divide. The controversy also sparked renewed scrutiny of other categories. Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba – Hashira Training Arc won both Best Continuing Series and Best Animation — arguably deserved in the latter, but hotly contested in the former, especially given competition from long-running titans like One Pieceand Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War. Many have argued that the eight-episode arc lacked the narrative weight and scale of its predecessors, let alone its rivals. Elsewhere, Attack on Titan was honored with the inaugural Global Impact Award, a fitting tribute to the decade-long saga that has reshaped the cultural reach of anime in the past decade. The final chapter, The Last Attack, aired in late 2024, closing a monumental journey that began in 2013. Director Yuichiro Hayashi accepted the award on behalf of MAPPA. The night also saw spirited performances from musical acts like Creepy Nuts, who won Best Anime Song for Otonoke from Dandadan, and LiSA, who revisited fan-favorite hits like Gurenge from Demon Slayer. Here is the full list of winners from the Crunchyroll Anime Awards 2025: Anime of the Year – Solo Leveling Film of the Year – Look Back Best Original Anime – Ninja Kamui Best Continuing Series – Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba – Hashira Training Arc Best New Series – Solo Leveling Best Opening Sequence – 'Otonoke' by Creepy Nuts – Dandadan Best Ending Sequence – 'request' by krage – Solo Leveling Best Action – Solo Leveling Best Comedy – MASHLE: MAGIC AND MUSCLES – The Divine Visionary Candidate Exam Arc Best Drama – Frieren: Beyond Journey's End Best Isekai Anime – Re:ZERO -Starting Life in Another World- Season 3 Best Romance – Blue Box Best Slice of Life – Makeine: Too Many Losing Heroines!
