The Kodansha Manga Award (講談社漫画賞, Koudansha Manga Shou) is an annual award for serialized manga published in the previous year, the event is sponsored by the publisher Kodansha. It is currently awarded in three categories: shounen, shoujo, and general. The awards began in 1977, initially with categories for shounen and shoujo. The first award for the general category was in 1982, and the first children's category's award was in 2003. The children's category was merged into the shounen and shoujo categories starting in 2015.

Critics & Connoisseurs was a club that was founded in 2008 and ended club activities on the 31st of 2022.

The goal of the club was to come up with a list of highly recommended quality shows and manga that are exemplary either within its genre or universally. A manga needed a 70% approval rate in our voting to get on the relation list. The following manga are all part of said list.
Do note that our club's main focus always was anime, our club's readership was relatively low which results in a lot of manga not being able to reach enough votes to get on the relation list despite having a 70% or higher approval rate.

Horror manga create an atmosphere of unease. Like Mystery manga, they encourage viewers to learn more about their world... but there may be secrets that are better left unexplored. Through eerie music and sounds, visceral or disturbing imagery, or startling moments, works of Horror make you worry about what gruesome thing is coming next.

This subgenre of horror intentionally focuses on grotesque or psychologically disturbing violations of the body. From disease to dismemberment the core of it is what can happen to the human body. It is not unusual for this to also include sexual, alien infestation, strange movements, transformations, and utter destruction of the human body, However I will try to save some of those manga for Ero-Guro

Sorted by newest to oldest.

Based on Detail, Expression, composition, character designs, Artstyle, etc...

An attempted list of the most important/influential post-war mangaka, and some of their most important series. All of the mangaka/manga here are well worth checking out.

Post-war refers to after World War II. So the list will exclude figures most known for works which came out prior to the War like Tagawa and Yokoyama(Ryuuichi).

In 2006, the Japan Media Arts Festival held a special 10th anniversary awards festival for manga, anime, art and entertainment. For manga and anime, the rankings were split into a popularity poll (general public vote), and a 'professionals' ranking (critics, mangaka, etc.). The only 3 series in the 'professionals' ranking for both manga and anime were 'Astro Boy', 'Doraemon', and 'AKIRA'.

These are the manga voted by the 'professionals'. First place in the popularity poll was 'Slam Dunk'.
