Calling all aspiring manga artists! The SILENT MANGA AUDITION® (SMA), the world's largest manga competition, is back for its 2024-25 edition! This prestigious contest, exclusively for manga without dialogue, offers a unique opportunity for international creators to showcase their skills and break into the Japanese manga world.

Theme: Seized with Rage
In this year's competition, the theme is "Seized with Rage." From daily frustrations to life-changing injustices, we want to see what sparks fiery anger in your characters. What ignites their rage?
