Were there any parts of the manga that were skipped in the anime? I just finished watching Bakuman anime (seasons 1 thru 3) and really enjoyed the series. Right after finishing the anime, I found out that they skipped a portion of the manga in season 3 (around episode 16) and would like to read more about it the potion that they skipped.

What part(s) of the manga did the anime not cover (were entire chapters or arcs skipped?) and where would they have fit into the anime?
Yes they did skip some of story in the manga version.  There was one part in particular where they make a manga, and in the anime they submit it whereas the anime they just said no I'm going to turn in a better one.  I'll add the episode\chapter numbers when I find it.
