The People’s Choice voting is open for the latest Tokyopop Rising Stars of Manga competition. Votes are due by Friday, March 14.

With 21 entries, I hope someone will publish reviews/guides on which ones are worth reading.

    Well… I didn’t want to influence anyone’s vote and wanted to give every entry an equal chance to win — but if you had to ask me personally, I thought “Ex Caelis” by Mingjue Chen was probably one of the more artistically accomplished efforts, and “Mubu” by Qing Ping Mui had one of the more innovative / interesting approaches.

    As long as you can ignore some pretty awkward type choices and some artists’ unfortunate reliance on computer programs like Manga Studio to create their stories, there’s some raw talent to be seen here. And the stories are quite short — I’m a fast reader by nature, but I was able to skim through the entries fairly quickly.
