I nominate Sket Dance as best comedy. It miraculously survived cancellation for our greater good. Each time a new chapter is released is a happy day.

I nominate Baka To Test for the best comedy.

I nominate Beelzebub for Best Comedy

It is hilarious since the first chapter. It is different from the "conventional" humor of Gintama or Sket Dan, the idea of a deliquent babysitting is great.

I support that

Please remember to give a short justification of your votes or we will not take them in consideration.

I nominate Great Teacher Onizuka for best comedy.

It has everything comedy should have. I wide variety of gags. Sometimes just silly,, sometis slapstick, sometimes pretty clever, sometimes parody, and sometimes suprisingly black. The top thing is, that it just makes one laugh his/her ass off. Onizuka is a hilarious character with all his pros and cons.

But most importantly, it has the thing many comedies lack in my opinion. It has other another, deeper level. It isn't just superficial fun for laughs. It has a message. Something to tell.

i nominate Gintama for sure... it just cracks me up... what can i say all the characters are funny and i enjoy it very much

I nominate Thermae Romae for Best Comedy.
Because of its extreme originality.
Because of the comical way that it uses for compare two different cultures like the Japanese and Italian ones.

I nominate Boys on the Run because of it's absolutely hilarious inappropriate tale of one of the great lovable losers in manga history.

I support Beelzebub for best comedy. Baby Beel and his antics are hilarious but Aoi and Oga even more lol.

I support this as well.

I nominate Sket Dance as well.

I nominate Yotsuba&! for best comedy.

There's a difference between making you laugh and making you happy. Reading Yotsuba&! does both for me.

Yankee-kun To Megane-chan
this manga is full of gag that make you laugh so much.
give it a try :tem
