The annual movie awards season in the United States gets underway on Tuesday with the Golden Globes.
The Hollywood Foreign Press Association will announce the winners at a ceremony in Los Angeles.
Japanese movie "Inu-Oh" directed by Yuasa Masaaki is nominated for the best animation category.
The movie is adopted from Furukawa Hideo's novel that tells a fictionalized life story of a 14th-century Noh theater performer named Inu-Oh.
The movie's US distributor describes the work as a "rock opera" about Inu-Oh and Tomona, a blind player of the biwa lute.
The pair "quickly become business partners and inseparable friends as crowds flock to see their electric, large-than-life concerts."
"Inu-Oh" is the first Japanese animation nominated for a Golden Globe since director Hosoda Mamoru's "Mirai" in 2019.
If it wins, "Inu-Oh" will become the first Japanese anime to receive the honor.
