Shueisha Launches 'MANGA MILLION', Free Global Library of 400 Manga Titles

Shueisha launches a free global manga service to mark its 100th anniversary. The 'MANGA MILLION' platform will offer approximately 400 titles translated into over 100 languages, totaling one million pages. The service is available worldwide without registration until the end of 2027.

The lineup includes major global franchises like 'ONE PIECE', 'NARUTO', 'Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba', 'Jujutsu Kaisen', and 'SPY×FAMILY'. It also features over 150 shojo and josei titles, including 'NANA' and 'Kimi ni Todoke'. Roughly 300 of the included works will receive their first official English translation.

All translations are handled by professional translators. From mid-August, the service will add near-simultaneous serialization for about 30 currently running series, releasing new chapters 2-3 weeks after their Japanese publication.

Project lead Shuuhei Hosono, editor-in-chief of MANGA Plus by SHUEISHA, stated the initiative began as a simple idea for the centenary: translating one million pages into 100 languages.

The service is accessible at mangamillion.shueisha.co.jp and is optimized for Windows, macOS, Android, and iOS/iPadOS.
