Heta-uma (ヘタウマ or ヘタうま) is a Japanese underground manga movement started in the 1970s with the magazine Garo. Heta-uma can be translated as "bad but good", designating a work which looks poorly drawn, but with an aesthetically conscious quality, opposed to the polished look of mainstream manga.

Some of heta-uma's main artists are Teruhiko Yumura (pen name "King Terry", not on MAL yet), Yoshikazu Ebisu and Takashi Nemoto.

This stack includes what are commonly seen as heta-uma works, as well as those I personally consider to be drawn with this sensibility.
