Okimono Kimono by CLAMP was just a few votes away from winning this one, but in the end, the fans of Bleach rallied and made Color Bleach+ your choice for this year's best new manga anthology or art book.

And why not? Color Bleach+ is a companion volume that takes fans deeper into the world of the Soul Society, to see a different side of Ichigo, Rukia and the rest of the cast of Bleach. Besides character profiles, exclusive illustrations and articles, Color Bleach also includes some hilarious comic strips that you'll only see in this book.
