The Japan Expo Awards are an award ceremony created in 2006 for the Japan Expo convention. They reward the best productions in the worlds of manga and anime, awarded by a jury of professionals and separate public prizes.
Previously, they also rewarded the best productions in the worlds of Asian films, video games and J-Music, based on the average of the votes of a jury of professionals and the public.
After a stop of the awards in 2013,[1] the Japan Expo Awards are back in 2016 with a new formula.
