The Japan Academy Awards (as it's frequently referred) took place March 8, 2013. It is quite similar to the Academy Awards (USA) as far as national prestige and award categories. This year, the ceremony was held  at the Grand Prince Hotel New Takanawa, in Tokyo, and marks the 36th ceremony, which originally began in 1978. Below, you can click the movie posters for trailers.

Let's see who won one of these lovely things..
