| Good to see Inoue Takehiko and Hideaki on the list. |
| Fuck yeah no Kubo. Good to see Togashi there. And Gin no Saji is 8? Huh? It's been out for less than a year only. I mean sure it's great and all but to rank high with only 20+ chapters is a bit weird. Oh well. |
 |
| Bleach fail |
  |
| i am pleased by all the Top 4 entries. |
| Steel Ball Run anime when? |
| Wish I could see Toboso Yana and/or Kuroshitsuji there somewhere </3 |
| Signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
| I'm so happy that Togashi, Arakawa,Hikaru Nakamura and Yazawa Ai got into the list. They totally deserve it. And yay no Bleach! |
| it's a tribute to yazawa ai to still be on this list, even though she hasn't written in a while - give her praise and good health!!! |
 |
| Arakawa sensei =D |
 |
| I'm surprised about Chihayafuru being on the list. Might check out some of these mangas. |

I ♥ Two Syaorans from Tsubasa RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE and TRC!!! |
| I like this list! Lots of mangaka I love :) |
   |
| Sorachi Hideaki fifth :D and Oda first ofcourse :) How come that Sorachi get into the best mangka but Gintama didn't get into the best manga ?? |
 |
| *1, Oda Eiichiro ( ONE PIECE ) *6, Adachi Mitsuru ( BASEBALL ) |
| This is not really a 'Best manga (author)' of the year, but rather a 'Which manga is the most popular?' survey. I agree that there are some good titles on it, but most of it is just on there because it's popular, especially One Piece and the author of Naruto. |

But it's true that ONE PIECE is more than awesome! >< and I want to read Umimachi Diary! |
| The top really does read like a popularity contest. I prefer the Kono Manga ga Sugoi lists, which are also survey based. However, popularity isn't the biggest factor. Like this was #1 female-oriented manga. Nishi Keiko's manga came in at 4, not her coming in at 19, etc :-p The lists are full of manga that aren't best sellers, but people have high opinions of them. |
| I don't like how it's always divided into male and female categories. Why can't it just be "best manga author" regardless of gender? It's not like the gender of the mangaka will always affect the genre so what's the point? Anyway, excuse me while I add a ton of manga to my plan to read list. |
Best Male Authors *1, Inoue Takehiko *2, Urasawa Naoki *3, Togashi Yoshihiro *4, Oda Eiichiro *5, Sorachi Hideaki Fixed. |
 |

 |
| 1- Togashi Yoshihiro u the best 100000000000000000000000 -Oda Eiichiro loser |

| *1, Umino Chika*3, Urasawa Naoki *4, Togashi Yoshihiro *9, Araki Hirohiko *11, Asano Inio 12, Higashimura Akiko wow, such a really nice thing for seeing a great mangaka as these on the top of the list, meh, one piece is in the #1, I got bored! |
| Thank god naruto isn't on there. |
 |
| Manga-God Takehiko Inoue is only second place? D: Oh nose... well, can't beat the OP-fanboys, even with great masterpieces such as Vagabond and REAL, I guess. Actually, I'm surprised he even placed so high, considering his two most recent works are both seinen-mangas. I'm really happy he placed this good, I love his works, he's amazing. :D Ok, now for real, I'm seriously surprised Arakawa Hiromu only placed second in the female category. Or people slowly begin to forget about how great Fullmetal Alchemist was, because it's finished for about a year and a half now. Umino Chikas works are great, no question, but it's still surprising she manages to beat the mastermind behind one of the gretest recent action-shounen-mangas. Umino Chika doesn't draw shoujo or shounen, that's why I'm surprised she managed to place above Arakawa Hiromu, who has drawn a super-pupular shounen. It's not about qualitiy, because I believe both Manga-ka are great, it's about yosei beats shounen. xD |
| One piece has been WAY TO WEAK this year to be nr.1 |
 |
| @&#$...... Arakawa was just one step away for being the best of the female author. Oh well, second is is good enough. One thing I don't understand is probably how highly One Pice is regarded. From my experiance, it's no different from the other two mainstreams. |
| I agree on the list. CHica Umino is one of my fave mangakas, same as CLAMP. And for me is no a surprise to see Oda an One piece in first place. |
| where is Bleach? >:O |
Do pop-up headlights really endanger pedestrians that much? |
| Top three males are my favorites, =) I know how to chose, hehe. |
| Poll is seriously biased, considering how under the sea arc in One Piece was one of the worst in One Piece so far. Compared to it, Naruto's current arc, 4th Shinobi war is a lot better. But oh well, I'm somehow pleased with the polls, at least for mangas. Natsume, FMA, Kimi ni Todoke, Hunter x Hunter, Bakuman.. All good mangas. :) |
 |
| whats with the hate towards some authors in here |
| If your going to complain that Yu-Gi-Oh! Mangas are on the top NY times manga best sellers, you must not realize how popular Card games are(as well as the fact that you get a free card). |

|
| Once i saw "readers of the magazine", I stopped believing on the list. ;~; I'd agree with Umino, but Oda? One Piece just seems more biased because of it's large popularity. |
 |
| Well... OP is popular because it's good. (Although I agree that there are better series out there, OP is one of the best...) Best Manga Series *1, One Piece *4, Fullmetal Alchemist *5, Kimi ni Todoke *9, Chihayafuru 11, Usagi Drop 16, Natsume Yuujinchou 18, Hunter x Hunter Yes to these (ones that I have read and love). Togashi, Yoshihiro Sorachi, Hideaki Arakawa, Hiromu Midorikawa, Yuki |

     |

| umm..ya..I'll see you all next year.(hoping it changes a bit) |
 |
| Oh, wow, so many of my favourite manga-kas up there! But I'm happiest for Togashi Yoshihiro-sensei. Congrats on 4th! ^^= |
