The announcement and award ceremony for the "U-CAN New Words and Buzzword Award" for the fiscal year 2023 took place in Tokyo on the 1st, where the Annual Grand Prize and Top 10 were revealed.
The Grand Prize was awarded to the Hanshin Tigers, a professional baseball team that clinched the top spot in Japan for the first time in 38 years. The selected word was "ARE," used by the team's manager, Akifumi Okada (66). Following the 2021 "Real Two-Way Player/Showtime" and the 2022 "Village Deity," this marks three consecutive years of receiving the top honor from the baseball world.
