The Next Manga Awards is an annual award for manga series presented by Kadokawa Corporation’s Da Vinci magazine and Niconico streaming website.
The award is divided into two categories, the first is for manga that have been published in print publications, and the second for series published online. In order for a series to be eligible, it must have less than five volumes published. The final decision is made by having fans vote. Until 2021, voting was restricted to Japan. However, in 2021 an English website was launched.
