NTT Solmare Corporation (Headquarters: Chuo-ku, Osaka; President and Representative Director: Toshiaki Asahi; hereinafter 'NTT Solmare') operates 'Comic C'moa,' one of Japan's largest comprehensive e-book stores. With the desire to create new opportunities for readers to discover comics, we are holding the 'Everyone's Choice!! Digital Comic Award 2027,' where readers vote to decide the next breakout hit. Voting will be held from Tuesday, September 29, 2026 to Tuesday, November 24, 2026.

What is the 'Everyone's Choice!! Digital Comic Award 2027,' now in its 10th year?

Fifty-four publishers recommend digital comics that are likely to be hits in 2027. Readers read those works and vote for the ones they think will be the next breakout hits. The work with the most votes is announced as 'Everyone's Choice: The Most Likely Hit Digital Comic of 2027.' This year marks the 10th anniversary.

Starting this year, in addition to the existing 'Men's Category,' 'Women's Category,' 'BL Category,' and 'TL Category,' the former 'Isekai (Other World) Category' has been expanded into 'Isekai Men's Category' and 'Isekai Women's Category,' evolving into a broader category structure.

Furthermore, the voting method has been revamped. Previously, you could vote for one work per category, but from this year, you can vote for up to six of your favorite works regardless of category. Please choose the next breakout hit of 2027 from among 100 entry works.

During the voting period, you can enjoy at least one volume of each entry work for free or with increased preview pages. Additionally, a '30% OFF coupon for 5 books' will be distributed for applicable works. Moreover, voting for six works will earn you up to 100 points, and those who cast all six votes will receive a '50% OFF coupon.' Enjoy the entry works at a great value while voting for the ones that catch your interest.
