Anime didn't make it into the Oscar nominations this year. Here's why that doesn't matter.

Back in 2003, “Spirited Away” made history by becoming the first Japanese animated feature film to win an Academy Award. It told the story of 10-year-old Chihiro, a young girl propelled into a world governed by spirits, gods and fantastical beasts that go bump in the night. It was a milestone for the animation industry. But more than a decade later, anime’s representation within the Oscars remains stagnant.
