Jeez, sorry to hear that.
Thank you for the info.
So the non-finalist block contains the same videos/schedule both Friday and Saturday?

I would like to apologize sincerely for the lateness of the non-finalists playlist; those of you who have been following AnimeNEXT for a while know that this is a rare occurrence. I'd like to thank everyone again for all your patience with us this uniquely challenging year, as a recent family emergency's been affecting our staff and some of them won't be able to make it to the convention (I suppose I'm lucky that this is the first time that's happened in the 10 years I've been doing this).
EDIT: I should also add that the following playlist will be only around 2 hours, 15 minutes in length, not the entire 3 hour block that I originally reserved (I am reaching out to our scheduling/info folks to have this updated). So please keep that in mind if you're aiming to see certain videos and they're towards the end!
The playlist for the non-finalist blocks will be as follows (video titles only to preserve anonymity):
Take My Breath
Those Anime Moments Vol. 6
Wizardry
Living Life in the Night
Turmoil
Robin vs Black Maria AMV
When the sun goes down
Nana x Takumi
War of Solitude
You're One in a Million
Flip Flappers
The Maid Who Loved Me
Welcome to my nightmare
The Retired Yakuza
Extreme Hearts
Mortifer
Bloody Mary
The Nomad
I Suffer
Liberated Woman
A Thousand Bops
Rubberneck Family
Cross Zone
Summer Holiday
Best Girl
Southern Fried Telenovela
Slay the Slayers
5 Minutes To Save The World
The True God
Horny Dance
Fractions
honeythief
Left Outside Alone
Rebirth
Be Crazy For Me
You Can (not) Imagine Dragons
Steady
The Yassification of Disney
Super Loid Bros
Freaky Game
Horsing Around
Bocchi the Video Star
Killing Kind
Sway
Always by your side
If anyone has any other questions, I'll be here the rest of today in last-minute panic mode before heading to the convention tomorrow -- feel free to ping us here, via email, or on Discord. Thanks again!
Thank you for the info.

That's correct, the playlist is the same. So you can come back and see any vids you might have missed the first time. (And, since I got this question at the con today, the same is true of the contest screenings.)Irregular013 wrote: ↑Fri Jun 16, 2023 8:56 amJeez, sorry to hear that.

Yes, for the first time in my over 10 years of doing this, we had not just one but TWO ties. And the ballots we received numbered in the hundreds again, so you can't blame small sample size.

Full contest results!
Let me address this first: I've seen a report of a playback issue at this year's non-finalist screenings. We checked all the videos on the playback computer before the convention and noticed nothing unusual, and my staff who ran the screenings didn't report anything odd either; so, if you were at the non-finalist blocks and saw something amiss, please contact us directly at amv@animenext.org so we can take appropriate steps to correct it. This is the first time I've ever heard of such an issue with one of my screenings, and naturally I'd like it to be the last.

For the first time ever, we had a tie... in fact, we had two ties.
For what I believe is the first time ever, we had a winner whose title was a hashtag... in fact, we had two winners whose titles were hashtags.
I'm not sure how to feel about that.
Anyway, if you're a winner, your prize package should be going out in the mail this weekend. Thanks everyone again for supporting our event - after over 10 years, I'm running out of ways to say how much joy it brings us and the attendees every year. We hope to see you all again (with our whole AMV department back together this time) in 2024!
