Interesting that Kuragehime won the Shojo category, as MAL has it listed as a Josei...

Yeah..

I'm a little surprised to see Giant Killing though.

Hmmm, I always thought Kuragehime seemed more shojo than josei.

You forgot to mention the jellyfish. Jellyfish are awesome, after all.

3/4 are sports. I sense some bias here.

What I thought.

Well at least all of them deserve the award. Sport titles of these days always developing in good ways... More realistic, more drama, etc...

I can't decide if I should point out the irony considering how sports manga are reading about fictional characters in real sports instead of being outside playing real sports or if I should suggest having most of your posts begin with this as it would be accurate in most topics.

Giant Killing has been great. A couple of the others look interesting too. Got sports?

Sports and gender bender. Right~

Anyway, great to see Giant Killing win and I'm even more excited to check out the Kuragehime anime this fall now. Might have to check out Ace of Diamond although Oofuri has spoiled baseball anime for me by being so damn good.

>General Manga Category: Giant Killing

FUCK YEAH. Giant Killing is such a fun manga, and so is the anime, I can see why they'd give an award to it.

Ace of Diamond is great, I love it... this makes me hopeful about a future anime!!

I don't like watching sports irl but I just love sports anime! They make them really exciting, I feel adrenaline rushes in my blood when they have games (especially baseball..) The psychological aspect of the characters involved probably does it... we don't get into the players heads irl ^^

I got no interest in any of those titles :/
