A day late, but not a dollar short, I promise! (It helps that it's free.)

Fumi Yoshinaga's Shit-Ton of Titles Award:
Hyouta Fujiyama


Yoshinaga had more actual books out this year-- 10, to be exact --but Juné flooded the market with six Fujiyama titles in only two months July 28th through September 26th). Yeesh!
Best Mangaka Whose Best Work is Still Unlicensed
Mika Sadahiro, Under Grand Hotel


What, did you really think a year would go by without us at least mentioning UGH?

Best Unlicensed Mangaka:
Taishi Zaou


Okay, sure, she's actually had her softcore works published under her pen name Mikiyo Tsuda, but come on-- give us some of the good stuff! Kitty? Blu? 801? Bueller?
Thank God It's Over
La Esperanca

Okay, the series had its share of sweet moments...but why are longer hardcore series left unlicensed while this barely-yaoi title churns all the way through? Now that it's over, let's rethink some priorities!

As before, hit the jump for bonus awards!

Most Unpronounceable Title: Midaresomenishi No explanation necessary, right? Seriously, just say it five times fast. Or try.

Best Product Placement: Hyouta Fujiyama Fujiyama-sensei has been spotted sneaking the covers of some of her books into the background of other works. Very clever, Fujiyama-- very clever indeed!

Best Fumi Yoshinaga Manga: Ichigenme With a whopping ten releases, this may be the last year we could give this award-- they're running out of BL manga of hers to release here! That said, of this year's Yoshinaga crop, we really dug the tale of two law students that is Ichigenme.

And a reminder while we're at it...don't forget to enter the Yaoi-ConTest if you haven't already!
