The Shogakukan Manga Award (??????, Sh?gakukan Mangash?) is one of Japan's major manga awards, sponsored by Shogakukan Publishing. It has been awarded annually for serialized manga since 1955 and features candidates from a number of publishers.

- Children's (??????, Jid? muke bumon)
- Boy's (??????, Sh?nen muke bumon)
- Girl's (??????, Sh?jo muke bumon)

Initially, there was only one general award. In 1976, the General category was introduced. The Boy's/Girl's category was introduced in 1980, then split in 1984 into separate Boy's and Girl's awards. The Children's category was introduced in 1982. From 1976 to 1989, the General category was called the Seinen/General category (????????, Seinen ippan muke bumon).
