Narrative:
I was returning to my home airport after a cross country flight. I monitored CTAF prior to my arrival to find out what runway was in use. A cessna and two ultralights entered the left downwind runway 11 and landed ahead of me. I entered the midfield 45 left downwind for 11 announcing my position all the way to final. I was listening to other aircraft in the pattern at a nearby airport; but no other airplanes were reporting in the pattern at kman. Winds were light; favoring 11 slightly. As I entered on the 45 I began searching for other aircraft on the ground or air. I specifically checked the opposite approach end and did not see anything around. As I turned base; another airplane entered the runway and departed on 11. I continued onto final and landed. As I was approaching the taxiway exit; a low wing aircraft flew over the top of me; taking off from the opposite end of the runway. I did not see him on final because I was focusing on landing; and I know for a fact there were no radio calls from them. I estimate he was 300 feet as he passed over. I don't know if he even saw me since it was a low wing airplane. All airplanes after I landed continued to land and depart runway 11. I double checked my radios after I landing to ensure everything was set correctly; and it was. I had just got done talking to big sky approach with no issues. No one got hurt; but it was an unsettling experience. I believe the other aircraft was in the wrong; but I was very surprised that I didn't see it until he was almost directly over the top of me.
