Of the ten listed, I'm reading three, so some of the titles I recognized. Definitely need to try reading Otoyomegatari. It's rather funny the big gap of points between ninth and tenth place.

god****. it needs an anime.
but it also need great animation. otherwise it will fail really hard...

when you read the manga, you will notice entire chapters only animating one single fight or one single scene without anyone saying a single word

One Punch-Man is 7th?! Are you kidding me?! One of the best in years to come out! Oh well! I don't know about any other manga in the list so don't know what to complain about :/

I won't go as far as saying that every man out there should aspire to become like Saitama and every woman out there should aspire to become his woman. Enough said! You don't know what you are missing if you aren't reading this manga!

I still haven't read any of those Manga in that list.
The only Manga that I know from that list are Otoyomegatari, Nanatsu no Taizai, One Punch-Man, Ajin, and Sakamoto desu ga?
I added Boku dake ga Inai Machi and Sayonara Tama-chan (I can feel the author's pain).
Otoyomegatari needs an Anime adaption already, with the same art of course!!!

Yay!! ^^ Otoyomegatari definitely deserves 1st place. I love all of Kaoru Mori's works. Her art and characters are amazing!

That -megatari, I almost mistook it for the -monogatari suffix, ...lol...but yeah, I'll try that when I have time next week, seems interesting.

Hoho, Seven Deadly Sins, Sakamoto and One Punch Man got in...Nice entries this time, and most of them are under-appreciated. They really need some love indeed.

The 2014 award list for the 7th edition of Manga Taisho, the annual Japanese Manga Award, has been announced. The award is decided by a panel of bookstore clerks who select the best title from manga series which are relatively new (have published less than 8 volumes) and have released at least one volume in the last year. The first voting round decides the nominees and the second decides the final ranking.

What novels? If you refer to Otoyomegatari, it's not a part of the Monogatari franchise, but a completely unrelated manga by a different author.

Historical doesen't even begin to describe it. It is so well researched that it managed to impress me. I'm finishing a master's degree on Central Asian History, by the way.
She did her homework REALLY well.

Oh my goodness, finally Otoyomegatari won! Very well-deserved!
I don't recognize many of the other titles up there except One-Punch Man, I'd like to give these all a shot.

I know right? This series is oozing in details and care in artwork, settings and characters. It's what I call a masterpiece.

The endless debate between fans and haters. At one point, after spending a lot of time on MAL, you just realize it's totally pointless.

Wooo the story seems interesting. Plan to watch list.
If I should believe in God. I should also believe in the tooth fairy. The bible is man made. It was Made by bearded men to try and control people with their beliefs. Off topic. No anime can even come close to Nana. :P
