Short Description:

The SILENT MANGA AUDITION is an international contest organized by COAMIX Inc., a manga publisher based in Tokyo, Japan.

It is the world’s biggest manga contest, exclusively for manga without dialogue

The theme of this edition is “My Dream”. Tell your story through images alone.

 This round’s theme is ‘My Dream’, but we’re not talking about the dreams you see while you’re sleeping! There’s a lot you can do with the theme of ‘dreams’, so we’re asking entrants to get creative! Yours could be…
– A character fulfilling their childhood dream
– The ‘American Dream’
– A character in pursuit of their dream girl
Show us your characters’ dreams and the emotions they evoke – be it joy, hope, fulfillment, despair, love, or something else!

Each entry should be between 5 and 17 pages. Multiple entries are welcome.
