Apologies if this is off-topic or was brought up before, but
Hippocrit has submitted a comic for the
100th Tezuka Manga Awards. I first heard him talk about it on
episode 212 of the PCP (timestamp 17:12) with BestGuyEver, where he said he was gonna submit something to the 100th anniversary special international department (normally this contest is exclusive to Japan). Here's proof Hippo's entry made it, it'll be screened by judges who are all established manga artists as well:

He also streamed the entire drawing process and even submitted the comic live on stream, at least according to these tweets. Also, the contest was open from May 1st to September 1st, but I guess waiting to do the bulk of the work till the very last second is typical PCP behaviour.
Note that his 'pronoun experiment' took place during this time frame. Now there, Hippo, ragging on Two Piece isn't very nice and feminine of you!
At the time of writing, Two Piece has 141K views while his comic barely broke 15K (not that views reflect a work's quality or affect his odds of winning, just stating statistics). The results will be announced in early December, for those who care enough to keep an eye out.
