The Shogakukan Manga Award (小学館漫画賞, Shōgakukan Mangashō) is one of Japan's major manga awards, sponsored by Shogakukan Publishing. It has been awarded annually for serialized manga since 1955 and features candidates from a number of publishers. Each winning work will be honored with a bronze statuette and a prize of 1 million yen (about US$9,000). Special awards are also occasionally given out for outstanding work, lifetime achievement, and so forth.

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

Top 50 best selling manga (according to current reported numbers), in order from highest to lowest

Just as the title says, manga about food and cooking that are worth your time.

Number of sales and date that number was acquired from in notes for each. Some of them I have personally estimated a higher figure than the date says.

No. 11 is Senri no Michi mo by Ippo Ohara & Satoshi Watanabe, which started in 1989 and ended in 2022 with 134 volumes & 693 chapters in Weekly Golf Digest.

No. 22 is Hakuryuu, which started in 1996. I have put Hakuryuu Legend instead because I could not find an earlier version.

No. 23 is Kowashiya Gen by Hoshino Hideki & Sadayoshi Ishii, which started in 2003 and is onging with 108 volumes & 1028 chapters in Weekly Manga Times.

No. 40 is Kabachitare! by Takashi Tajima & Takahiro Kochi, which started in 1999 and is ongoing with 93 volumes & 974 chapters in Weekly Morning Kodansha.

No. 47 is Impact by Nobuhiro Sakata & Ryouji Ryuuzaki, which started in 2002 and ended in 2019 with 85 volumes & 851 chapters in Par Golf.

Number of volumes and chapters in notes.

Titles focused on eating. Titles related to the theme of food that doesn't fit into other stacks: ramen, sushi, drinking, diet, cooks/chefs and food-related titles in fantasy settings.

Japan's Shōwa era lasted from 1926 to 1989. In 2009, Asahi Shimbun announced a polled list of 50 of the greatest 'masterpieces(名作)' of the Shōwa era. The only one not listed on MAL yet is 'Iga no Kagemaru' by Mitsuteru Yokoyama, which was ranked 27th.

~ a fun time capsule with a glimpse into what was deemed award-worthy during that time period

Manga and light novels set in Okinawa or related to it in some way.



//If you know any manga that it's not on this stack, do tell me!//

Obviously there are too many manga set in Tokyo to list all in one stack, precedence is given to those that highlight unique Tokyo shitamachi or culture.

Every manga covered by the Mangasplaining podcast in Season 1. Episode 5 covered What The Font? but there is no MAL entry.

Manga published in over 100 volumes


Manga with more than 100 volumes published as of January 2023
Excludes manga that have been published in more than 100 volumes in total, including Gaiden, sequels, spin-offs, etc.

This is a translation of a widely-publicized poll from 2021. This is NOT my personal opinion, so how about you shut up MAL.

#92, Makaroni Houren-Sou, is a 1970's gag manga not included in MAL's databases.

1-50 are HERE: https://myanimelist.net/stacks/31734

Also includes titles where the licencing wasn't cancelled oficially but no new volume has been released in English for years despite existing in the original language, and cases when the publisher went defunct before completing the series. Novels/manhwa/manhua etc. count too.


Let me know if there is some update to any of the titles listed or if some needs to be added.

Also this is a personal call-out for Dark Horse, pick up your damn manga.
