Anime Award Festival Beat & Motion

Beat & Motion chapter 37 has been released. Chapter 36 concluded with the start of the award ceremony so chapter 37 is going to be a deciding factor as to whether Tatsuhiko won the competition or not. Click here to read Beat & Motion chapter 37.


Ryoichi Kurita


This award ceremony began with an opening speech from one of the judges who is known as “Director Ryoichi Kurita”. It turns out Tatsuhiko has met Mr. Ryoichi in the past. That’s because Ryoichi was Tatsuhiko’s teacher when he was younger. Mr. Ryoichi even complimented Tatsuhiko’s drawing when he was a kid. Ryoichi made a speech talking about the criteria for getting an award (technical skills, originality and ingenuity). He also showed support for those who do not get an award.


All Awards Explained


There were five awards in the Anime Award Festival. The first was “the student award in the short film category”. The student award is only awarded to “a piece made by an art college student” so Tatsuhiko and the others could not get this award. The other four awards are the judge’s award with a prize of 100,000 Yen, the silver award with a prize of 100,000 Yen, the gold award with a prize of 300,000 Yen and finally the grand prize with a prize of 500,000 Yen. Nabari spoke about how money isn’t important in this competition. He emphasizes on publicity and with that, it would be easy to get hired by an art studio, get hired to do music video and commercials and so lots of other possibilities.


Tatsuhiko wins an award

The first award which was given out was the Judges award and it turns out Tatsuhiko won that award. Tatsuhiko was shocked when his name was called and on his way to the stage, he was wondering if it was a dream or not. Akame and Nabari won the Grand Prize. They both worked on a single animation project. At the end of the event, Tatsuhiko went to get juice while waiting to Akame and Nabari to get back from their photo-shoot. This chapter concluded with Tatsuhiko encountering Mr. Ryoichi.


Closure


Reading this chapter, Mr. Ryoichi is going to play an important role in the future. Tatsuhiko at the end of this chapter was wondering of Ryoichi still recalls him considering it has been 10 years. It will be interesting to see how the story progresses from here on out.
