Anime database website MyAnimeList and web novel platform Honeyfeed announced the winners of its web novel contest on Monday. In addition to cash prizes, the top three winning entries will be sent to manga publisher Kodansha to review for a possible manga adaptation.
The winning submissions are as follows:
- 1st Place: REALM ASSASSIN by Pearlyn.M (5000 USD)
- 2nd Place: The Consequence of Saving the World by Harmonica Writes (3000 USD)
- 3rd Place: The Sequence of Kai by OscarHM (2000 USD)
The contest ran from July 5 to September 5. It received 853 entries in total, and the winners were decided through fan vote. qdopp, Inc., which runs Honeyfeed, confirmed that the contest will return for a second round.
Under the contest's original rules, authors would waive creative rights through submitting their work, including royalties and licensing, although this paragraph was later removed after user backlash.
