The Manga Taisho (マンガ大賞) is an annual Japanese manga award. The award is limited to series with eight or fewer collected volumes, in order to promote newer titles. The nominating committee, composed of staff members from bookstores, each initially vote for five series and the titles with the top ten number of votes become the official nominees of the year. Finally a second round of voting determines the winner, as well as second and third place.

List of SOME mangas that has winning awards in the past.



Adv: The list it isn't, by any means, perfect and can have discrepancies

Manga that can get an Adaptation or a Sequel that haven't got announced yet.

PLS!! I could die happy if Oshi no Ko is getting an Anime adaptation.

Update:
Yay. It's official.


These extra manga has reasons:

*Suki na Ko ga Megane wo Wasureta is a Takagi killer and will take over.
*Act-Age could've adapted by now but the Author f**ked it up.
*Ao no Flag is interesting, but I see the reason why they haven't done anything yet.
*Masamune-kun no Revenge is getting the Final Half. Thank God.
*Takopii no Genzai is too dark.

[Im done updating]

Tranquil atmosphere with a sense of melancholy underpinned by tragedy.

- A mix of philosophical, mystery and action stories

If fantasy is your jam, here is a stack of manga with good stories, superb art and mature themes.


More will be added once discovered.

Of course, this list is subjective, but these are mangas that really stood out to me due to refreshing story elements, subject matter, or unique characters. I'm not asking for reccomendations.

Manga with a recurring theme of burgers or has a volume cover featuring burgers. Oneshots with dedicated scenes involving eating burgers will be included.

Manga and novels that I love.

Volume 1 released after 2020.

Chill out like it's Sunday with the best of the best.

EDIT: Replaced "Arms" with "Mikadono Sanshimai wa Angai, Choroi".

Manga that I believe are highly underrated and deserve more attention.

Ones that I think stand out among the rest and do something different. There are many supernatural mangas that I love, however, these are the ones that not only do I love, I consider them truly unique whether that be referring to the world setting, story concept, or characters.

The level of "darkness" for each series varies. But most of these are not your typical wholesome fantasy series.
