Holy cow, I'm shocked the judges picked a dozen of them! But they're right, the quality of work on display is pretty high. A few of these were favorites of my own from the beginning (especially Sakurage's which I was absolutely convinced would come through), and there's a number I haven't seen yet that are just as great, like nik's.

Kudos to the winners. I wonder if some of the winners are foreigners?

Congrats to the winners. Definitely lots of talent among the submissions.

But it's too bad this danbo design didn't make it:

Pump some more money into developing Japan's young manga talent and we'll be set for another 100 years...

Sharon looks like a whore, I hate her. Sorato and Perosu are adorable, I want to take them home. Aki is mai waifu, best character.

I ship Sai and Ahiru. They go together, and Ahiru is Japanese for duck. spoiler[Sai+duck].

The series finale is next Sunday? I didn't realize that Gargantia is a 13 episode series. Does this mean the anime is just advertisement for the manga or is the manga going to end soon too?

I like the artwork. Some seem to fit the world of Garganita better than others though.

Gargantia is an original anime. The manga is just there to promote the anime.

Interesting designs, though it's a bit disappointing that they'll just be used as background characters without playing any real role. I suppose those who came up with them will still be happy enough to see them included in any case.

+1 for Aki. She should have been in the series all along.
