Manta has manhwa and webnovels, and now it has manga.
The webcomics platform is becoming the hub for all things comics as it has added more than 600 manga to its library. On the website, the platform has added more than 400 Kodansha-licensed manga which includes 10 Dance, Fire Force, Medalist, Witch Hat Atelier, Tokyo Revengers, Wotakoi: Love is Hard for Otaku, WIND BREAKER, and more.
Generally, it appears as though each volume will cost approximately 1,374 GEMs to read. To celebrate the launch, Manta has partnered with Kodansha to give readers a discount up to 94 per cent on select Kodansha series. Readers will also have 150 free GEMs to start the series. The event will run from April 7 to 20.
Owned and operated by RIDI Corporation, Manta first launched in November 2020 as a subscription-based service. First licensing manhwa, the platform eventually began releasing original webcomics. Manta then branched out with licensing webnovels under Manta Novels in February 2024. Throughout the past six years, Manta has made changes to the way readers can access their library including introducing an in-app currency called GEM which allows non-subscribers to read GEM-exclusive works.
The addition of manga to Manta has helped to further diversify its offerings.
