Invitation to Participate in The Best Cartoons of Nippon 2026
Dear Sir or Madam
Saitama City has long been committed to highlighting the accomplishments of Rakuten Kitazawa, a
pioneer in the field of modern Japanese cartoon who spent his later years in Saitama, and to advocating
and promoting "MANGA" (means cartoon) as a form of cultural expression known around the world.
This year marks 35st The Best Cartoons of Nippon with warm and continued patronage from domestic
and international cartoonists and comic artists. We sincerely thank you for joining our events.
Please find attached information regarding this year’s event. We hope to have even more participants in
this year’s festival than in the past. Although it is difficult to offer an honorarium for your work(s), we
will send an A4-sized soft-cover catalogue (about 100 pages) in lieu of any monetary compensation.
The theme for this year is “Support and Encouragement”.
With the World Baseball Classic and the FIFA World Cup both being hosted in 2026, this will be a year
filled with cheers all over the world. We chose this theme hoping to see moments of courage and stories
of strong bonds told freely and humorously through the power of Manga.
If you accept our invitation, please send your work(s) and designated personal history form. Those
applications must arrive us no later than August 15,2026 (Saturday).
We are looking forward to appreciating your work(s), and thank you in advance for your cooperation.
