| Surprised that Spy x Family didn’t win this... Guess I really need to give the winner a shot too, then. Good to see Nami yo Kiitekure make it to the list, I’m looking forward to the anime adaption next season even more now! |

| Never heard of Blue Period, but after reading the synopsis I think I need to. This is right up my alley. |
 |
| i'm so proud of blue period! it's an amazing manga & deserves more recognition (although it's receiving more traction nowadays) |
 |
| I am glad Blue Period won. Actually it got less points than last year, but this year it was a close race it seems.. |
| Man, Spy x Family should won this.. its pretty much the best manga in 2019/2020... |
 Try reading Spy x Family Manga ^_^ U will love it, i promise... |
| Blue Period got what it deserves |
