The past 10 winners of Manga Taishō since 2021
The Manga Taishō (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. The following are the past 10 winners of The Manga Taishō. 1. Frieren: Beyond Journey's End『葬送のフリーレン』 (Kanehito Yamada and Tsukasa Abe, 2021) The fantasy story follows the travels of Frieren, an elf who once journeyed on perilous adventures to defeat evil with stalwart comrades. When peace comes, she bears the burden of her long-lived race, and sees her friends pass away before her one by one. It also got the New Creator Prize of the 25th annual Tezuka Osamu Cultural Prize.
