I nominate Dragon Ball Z for Best Overall manga since it was the main reason manga became popular in the USA and around the world.

Best manga ever :headscratch

Mushishi is the closest to perfection of any manga I have read. Beautiful art, stunning writing, a story both happy and sad. Urushibara Yuki succeeds in writing modern fairy tales every bit as memorable as Hans Christian Anderson and the Brothers Grimm.

I nominate Eden:It's An Endless World! for best overall manga.

It's the total package. Great art, awesome characters, and an amazing story. There's nothing I don't like about it.

I nominate Dragonball for Best Overall Manga

Since I made a mistake and post Hi No Tori in Best Manga of 2011 I repost this here:

I nominate Hi No Tori for Best Overall Manga
The most ambitious project of Osamu "Manga no Kamisama" Tezuka, defined by the same his "life's work." It's a beautiful fresco of human history told us through the universal symbol of immortality, the phoenix.

i nominate Naruto, it deserves it cause it has every thing. heart warming moments, sadness , comedy , great battles , wonderful back story and flashbacks , mystery and darkness there is nothing messing in it :D

I nominate Bakuman for best overall manga.

I nominate Fullmetal Alchemist for best overall manga.

I nominate Basilisk for best overall manga.

Short, intense, very intense, cruel, tragic, great art, cool characters and giving off an agonizing feeling (similar to that of the "Terminator" movie) I have not experienced with any other manga!

I nominate Vagabond for best overall manga

After I read about certain manga having some kind of a "pioneer role" for other title, I almost dared to nominate some "Beautiful Girl Warriors" - but instead I happily nominate Fairy Tail for Best Overall Manga category: It has action, different superpowers with the ability to mix and combine, fan service for all readers, comedy and a long-term story with many yet unsolved mysteries. All I need.

I support Fairy Tail.
