San Francisco-based KiraKira Media Inc. in partnership with Kodansha USA is set to launch a new digital manga service, Azuki. The launch is scheduled for June 28th which will be accessible on iOS, Android, and the web, worldwide except for Japan. The service will avail Japanese publishers’ most popular titles shortly after they are launched in their home to the users in English. Azuki’s library in addition to these new titles will be enriched with several existing popular titles.
Azuki’s entire library will be available ad-free with US$4.99 for a monthly subscription and free users will be availed with selected free titles of course with those cranky ads. For an interactive experience, a comment thread will also be provided.
Parent to Azuki’s partner Kodansha US, Kodansha is a big name among manga publishers. Its network is outstretched and the publishing frequency is quite high. Attack on Titan, Tokyo revengers, Your lie in April, Chihayafuru, and Fairy Tail are some of the main highlights among dozens of magazines publishing every month.
Some titles such as To your eternity, A sign of affection will be featured on Azuki soon after they got released in Japan.
