| > Kakukaku Shikajika by Akiko Higashimura (Japan) Excellent choice! Glad to see this get some attention. I'd recommend this manga to anyone. |
 |
| Kakukaku Shikajika is probably the most underappreciated manga on MAL. I mean yes, it's in the top 50 as far as ratings go, but only a few hundred people have seemingly read it A shame because it's one of the most inspirational reads I've ever had |
  |
This looks interesting, needs anime :) |
 |
| I've been meaning to read Kakukaku Shikajika. Since it's from the creator of the great Kuragehime. |

Snow said: Woah, what?Excellence Award Non-working City by Tingfung Ho (Portugal) That's suprising. |
 |
| gz for winners. Also Shirobako made into the list! ohh baby!~~ |
| Well, Kakukaku Shikajika is a great manga, it really deserves the prize. HaXXspetten said: it's one of the most inspirational reads I've ever had I think so too, imho second only to The Climber. I remember after reading it I started studying like crazy xD |
| Hum..... |
| oh cool, taifuu made it? that was a fantastic animated short. deserved it. |
 |
| I really wanna scanlate Awajima Hyakkei now! Also, excited to read Kakukaku Shikajika. Kikai Jikake no Ai seems very interesting based on synopsis alone. Feels like it'll be hard to scanlate, but maybe. Machida-kun no Sekai looks very cute. edit- YOOOO Otouto no Otto's on this? Just noticed. Need to read that soon but I'm scared the scanlators will be slow. |
