A lot of really good picks here! My personal votes:

Best New Manga: A hard pick, but I'd have to go with A Witch's Life in Mongol. Spacewalking With You is a close second.

Best Continuing Manga Series: It's a tie between The Summer Hikaru Died and Hirayasumi.

Best One-Shot Manga: Tamaki & Amane, though once again, A Smart and Courageous Child would be my second pick.

Best New Edition of Classic Manga: They Were 11! is incredible, and I'm so happy we finally have the full thing in English after all these years.

Best Translation: Otaku Love Connection was really clever in how it translated otaku slang, I was surprised it was the translator's first time working on a manga!

Best Lettering: Cat Man's the only one I read, but I agree with the judges that the way in-universe text was handled was really impressive.

Best Publication Design: Veil is absolutely gorgeous, and fits the manga well!

I'd just vote for Short Game by Adachi, as he is my favourite manga author.

But I cannot understand the nomination for the Otaku Love's translation. Too many Japanese Random Words™ that are supposed to be... funny?
