Browns DE Myles Garrett misses OTAs for a date in Tokyo
Browns DE Myles Garrett misses OTAs for a date in Tokyo Superstar Myles Garrett made an appearance on the orange carpet today, but it's not the one the team was hoping for. As the Browns kicked off their second day of OTAs, Garrett was across the world in Japan. Garrett was at the Crunchyroll Anime Awards in Tokyo with Olympic gold medalist snowboarder Chloe Kim by his side. Kim was a presenter at the award ceremony. Garrett, a massive anime fan, accompanied Kim to the event and stood in the background as Kim answered questions on the orange carpet. The two have sparked some romantic rumors with their appearance. Garrett is enjoying his offseason after getting a contract extension. He is enamored with Japan, having visited multiple times over the last few years. The former Defensive Player of the Year hasn't participated in OTAs since 2019. COVID-19 cancelled the 2020 OTAs, and in 2021, former Browns' center and NFLPA President JC Tretter led a work stoppage to ensure that organized team activities were voluntary across the NFL. The Browns gave Garrett a $160 million extension this offseason. The team wanted him to take a more active role in the team. However, that seems like it'll have to wait for mandatory minicamp. Garrett hasn't missed a beat since skipping OTAs. He's the most dominant defensive player in the NFL.

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?
