Which was the first manga to win this award?

X estimated that he auditioned for between 15 and 30 television pilots, however the shows failed to find a television network. Eventually there came along an exception.

Though the character he was cast for had no similarity to him, he was enchanted by the dialogue structure, the way the writers "brilliantly use those words that most of us don't recognize to create that rhythm. And the rhythm got me. It was the chance to dance through that dialogue, and in a lot of ways still is."

The role requires X to "rattle off line after line of tightly composed, rhythmic dialogue, as well as then do something with his face or body during the silence that follows."

Who's X?

This person was named by Time as "The Most Influential Asians of the Century".To quote them "As much as Mao Zedong or Mohandas Gandhi changed Asian days, this guy transformed its nights."

In 2004 he was awarded the IgNobel prize for " creating something and, thereby providing an entirely new way for people to learn to tolerate each other."

What did he do?

In Hindu and yogic traditions and other belief systems, X are energy points or nodes in the subtle body.

Their name derives from the Sanskrit word for "wheel" or "turning", but in the yogic context a better translation of the word is 'vortex or whirlpool'

X is also a very important theme in Mashashi Kishimoto's manga series Naruto and is depicted as basic life source.

This is the logo of a philosophical "mock religion" which seeks to promote a modern form of Taoism along with the concepts by the Ancient Greek philosopher Epicurus. What is this 'mock religion' called?
