This is a shorter (no, really!) post that just lists the videos that i thought deserved to get nominated but weren't (or that weren't nominated enough.)
I would still recommend checking out the list of finalists (http://www.animemusicvideos.org/members/amvvca/2015/) because it's entirely possible that one or more very good videos got nominated for exactly the categories i thought they should have, and thus didn't end up in any of the lists below. (And trying to cross-reference everything to figure out exactly which videos those might be would make even my spreadsheet-happy brain explode =)
