Publisher TOKYOPOP has announced that its acclaimed manga, A SMART AND COURAGEOUS CHILD, has been nominated for a 2025 American Manga Award in the category of Best One-Shot.
Created by Miki Yamamoto, the manga poignantly examines how a first-time mother works through her fears of bringing a child into a dangerous and uncertain world and learns to evaluate her worries, process her fears, and ultimately choose positivity over uncertainty and paranoia.
The winners of the American Manga Awards will be determined by votes from professionals working in an editorial capacity with North American manga publishers. Voter registration for the American Manga Awards is open through July 21 and is voting open until July 24. The awards will take place on August 21, 2025, at the Japan Society in New York City and will be held in conjunction with the 2025 Anime NYC Festival which takes place at the Jacob K. Javits Center in Manhattan August 21–24.
