Acknowledgements
Thank you to my fellow presenters of the special session, Stephen Ai and Tân Nazaré, and our chair, Liam Hynes-Tawa! After my KonoSuba paper at last year’s SMT conference, Stephen proposed the idea of submitting a special session on anime music—big thanks to him for organizing everything and inviting me to submit as part of the session. I thank Landon Morrison for his thoughtful feedback and broader thoughts on media circulation, ideas that will undoubtedly shape up more in future projects. I also thank Philip Stoecker for letting me run this presentation for him, as well as the Eastman Music Theory community for providing feedback at the annual SMT run-throughs!
