Shogakukan Manga Award

The Shogakukan Manga Award (小学館漫画賞) is one of Japan's major manga awards, and is sponsored by Shogakukan Publishing. It has been awarded annually for serialized manga and features candidates from a number of publishers. It is the oldest manga award in Japan, being given since 1955.

Categories
Until 2022, the current award categories were:
 * Children's (児童向け部門)
 * Boy's (少年向け部門)
 * Girl's (少女向け部門)
 * General (一般向け部門)

Each winning work will be honored with a bronze statuette called "Minori", designed by Shigeru Nakano; a certificate, and a prize of 1 million yen (about US$7,500). Special awards are also occasionally given out for outstanding work, lifetime achievement, and so forth.

Recipients
The laureates were awarded for comics published during the years listed in the table. However, the laureates were not presented and the prizes were not given out until the beginning of the following year. The prizes are often referred to by the numbers listed below instead of the years. In the 69th edition, the nominees were not divided into categories.
