The comic fans of the United Kingdom have given the 2007 Eagle Award
for Favorite Manga to Tsugumi Ohba and Takeshi Obata's Death Note
manga. The supernatural suspense title was competing against Koushun
Takami and Masayuki Taguchi's Battle Royale, Hiroaki Samura's Blade of
the Immortal, Masashi Kishimoto's Naruto, and Korean artist Min-Woo
Hyung's Priest. Death Note was also nominated in 2006.


Blade of the Immortal has been nominated five straight times since the
category was added in 2000, and won in 2004, 2005, and 2006. Kazuo
Koike and Goseki Kojima's Lone Wolf and Cub won the first ever Eagle
Award for Favorite Manga award in 2000. Before the Favorite Manga
category was introduced, Katsuhiro Otomo's Akira won the Best
International Comic Book award in 1989.
