Looking at the list of winners in the category, this is definitely the first anime film to have won. Very few have even been nominated in the past. As far as I could tell from a glance, there are only four:

  • 2023 - The Boy and the Heron (won)
  • 2023 - Suzume
  • 2022 - Inu-Oh
  • 2018 - Mirai
