MyAnimeList to Hold Second English Web Novel Contest: “MAL x Honeyfeed Writing Contest (2022)”5/10/2022 MyAnimeList recently announced that it will hold its second English web novel writing contest titled: “I Was Browsing MAL As Usual Then I Realized My Web Novel Could Become Manga”, or more simply: “MAL x Honeyfeed Writing Contest (2022)”. If you are interested in joining this contest then read below for more information! The three prompt boards for this round will be School, Rom-Com, and Cyberpunk. There will be a US$3,000 prize for each prompt board, for a total prize pool of US$9,000. The contest will start on June 1, 2022, and the winning entries will be announced in December 2022. The contest will be held in collaboration with Honeyfeed, an English web novel community operated by qdopp, Inc., and winning entries will be chosen by a panel of judges and a user vote. Winning entries will also be reviewed by Kodansha Ltd. for possible publication and/or comicalization. This contest was inspired by the voices of international anime fans on MyAnimeList. Many anime fans feel that only Japanese-authored works have a realistic chance of becoming anime, while foreign-authored works stand little to no chance. This contest was created as a stepping stone to fulfilling that dream of someday having one’s ideas made into an anime in Japan. This contest will also contribute to spreading Japan’s anime culture even further and deeper than ever before. We believe there is a need to create an ecosystem where overseas anime fans can not only watch finished products but also contribute to the anime creation process. MyAnimeList’s mission is to create a place where anime and manga fans from all over the world can gather every day, and we are constantly developing our services to meet the needs of overseas users who love Japanese anime and manga. We are not content with the status quo and will continue pushing the envelope to expand our user base. Contest Schedule (subject to change) Entry Period: June 1 to September 1, 2022 Judges Voting Period: September 2 to November 2, 2022 Public Voting Period (Finals): November 3 to November 30, 2022 Winner Announced: December 12, 2022 Campaign Page: https://mhwc.myanimelist.net You can learn more about the previous contest's winners below. ■ Winners of the First English Web Novel Contest
