If you did not hear, Chainsaw Man brought home another Harvey Award for its 2022 season. Fujimoto’s manga was awarded Best Manga, after all. This is the second Harvey Award given to Chainsaw Man as it won Best Manga in 2021. And earlier this year, Fujimoto’s series was nominated for an Eisner Award at San Diego Comic-Con.
Of course, the Harvey Awards are prestigious for any artist, and Fujimoto admits he’s reeling for winning one let alone two. In a statement released after his latest win, the artist said his awards could easily devalue the Harvey Awards as a whole if he keeps winning.

“If Chainsaw Man receives this award too often, I’m afraid it’ll lower the prestige of the Harveys. But really I’m so happy. And Now I want to make it third,” Fujimoto wrote.
