And the winner of the WataMote giveaway is…MegaKnogga!
As the winner, MegaKnogga will be receiving a copy of the first volume in Nico Tanigawa’s No Matter How I Look at It, It’s You Guys’ Fault I’m Not Popular! (hereafter referred to as WataMote) as published by Yen Press. Because WataMote is a humorous, if sometimes painful, story about otaku, for this giveaway I asked that entrants tell me a little about their favorite otaku or otaku manga. Check out the WataMote giveaway comments for the detailed responses.

Welcome to the N.H.K. got quite a few mentions, which made me happy (the novel is great, as are the manga and anime adaptations), as did a few of my other otaku favorites like Fujoshi Rumi and Genshiken (and Flower of Life and Gin Tama, too!). Thank you to everyone who participated and shared; there are a few manga that I definitely need to pick up. I hope to see you all again for the first manga giveaway of 2015!
