Juror NIGO had an intent look. His perspective was as unique as one would expect.

Toshiro Kawase and Katsuya Terada, an illustrator and Manga artist, discussed their impressions of the exhibitors.

Each of the jurors took Polaroid photos of their favorite artworks and discussed what attracted them. The final discussion continued for around one hour.

the next was an announcement of the main judge. Exhibitors gathered around the stage, and there was no sound in the hall.

An announcement of the jurors' personal prizes was begun. A winner of the Noi Sawaragi Prize was thirteen-year-old, junior high school student, "Kazuki"!  He was the youngest recipient ever in the history of GEISAI!!!

An announcement of the gold prize was begun! Who expected that the gold medalist was Gluten at the Takeshi no Daredemo Picasso's  booth!!!

The winners of the gold prize, the silver prize, and bronze prize were announced, bringing the GEISAI Award ceremony to its climax.

Ichiro Morimoto received the silver prize for his highly realistic figures depicting real people.

Otake Tsukasa, who created these delicate and remarkable paper cutouts, was awarded the bronze prize.

Congratulations! Kazuki, received the Noi Sawaragi Prize for what came to be known as his “Childrens’ Shokugan”. They were extremely popular.

Some exhibitors showed their portfolios to Tomio Koyama. The most important thing at GEISAI is to be aggressive.
