I nominate Annarasumanara, Hapi Mari and Udon no Onna

I support Udon no Onna. It's a short and sweet romance with charming art.....and also the only Josei that I've read that is eligible for the awards lol.

While Hapi Mari is not suitable for everyone, i highly recommend Annarasumanara then, if you have not read it

Anna is a Korean web comic and ended befiore 2012 so i doubt it can enter in this category. But I agree it's very good, like everything by this author.

The series was translated only recently, so i thought that it still would suffice.

I know but if you read benelori answer to my questions it is not the case. But now that I think about it, I agree that it would make more sense to use Edited Manga dates. That what is used for awards traditionally and what would be the most interesting in my opinion.

Seems you were right in the end.
