    I think it's a really good app but I feel like they should have made each chapter free well yeah that's it.

  • App needs to honestly be gone from this platform

    The app at first glance is pretty well, you can find different manga’s such as AOT, that time I got reincarnated as a slime, Seven deadly sins, and more. The issue is that when you get far enough you need to use premium tickets. When you first get into the app it gives you at least 35 or maybe more. But, it only works for 1 chapter and after 22-23 hours it expires. Yet, these premium tickets have expiration dates, then you have to use points. These points are free but very hard to obtain in large amounts. And most of the time it’s recommended to purchase these points. This app shows greedy behavior from its buyers and people that read for free, like myself. I unfortunately cannot purchase the manga’s unlike the manga I do have which is the whole demon slayer set plus a couple other items that did come with it. But in total that costed around 100$ or 15,107.00¥. I don’t want to purchase a manga from an app that I believed was free. I would rather get the manga myself and read it there not buy from an app that I have to continually pay for.

    I do not want to see this and my child will not see this either.

  • Landscape layout for home screen

    I love that i can have my iPad propped up and read manga continuously page to page in landscape like i had the physical copies. It makes double page panels spectacular HOWEVER once you exit the manga the home screens force you to go back to vertical until you select another manga to read. I hope in a future update they make it so the whole app can be landscape. Now onto what everyone talks about in the reviews. I'm happy that there is a way to officially support the mangaka on an ereader platform but the mix of currency makes things confusing and frustrating especially when there are several chapters in the middle of a series that will be points only but the chapters previous and following are tickets. Hopefully one day they can switch to a subscriber based model like $0.99/month for 30-60 free chapters so people can keep up with their weekly manga and possibly binge a smaller series or some higher amount to get full access to everything. Other than that the quality is great and the variety is awesome.

    It’s good

  • Great content, horrible app

    The content is high quality and plentiful, but the app itself is trash. Sure, reading is OK, but the payment system is total garbage. Even if I wanted to buy points, it errors out whenever I try. And you can’t share points between the app and the website. Whaaat?!? How does that even make sense?

  • Initially upset, but happy with updates.

    K Manga is most valuable for addressing 2 specific needs: to read the first few chapters of series you might be curious about; and to buy new chapter shortly after the were published in Japan. I can’t in good conscience recommend this as a method to read entire series, as the cost would be higher than just buying physical editions… but for trying something new or spending a few dollars a month to keep up and support the latest releases, it’s perfect. Initially a lot of aspects of this app really disappointed me. Plenty of other reviews touch on all those reasons. But the most upsetting to me personally was that many chapters were split in half or more. I’ve noticed that this specific practice declined for some series, and I hope that trend continues. Additionally there have been dev updates that pleasantly surprised me: like adding comments. I really like to see reactions from other fans, so this is a nice feature. So while k manga wasn’t quite what I hoped for, I look forward to seeing how the app continues to develop… and frankly I’ll keep coming back as long as witch hat atelier is simulcasted.

  • Way disappointed

    I had heard kodansha made a manga app and was excited since i had a ton of mangas i wanted to read and downloaded it to see how much a subscription was to then be disappointed to see that it’s not a subscription but point based and i would have to pay for every chapter i read which made me back out immediately bc im not wanting to spend a ridiculous amount of money to buy singular chapters and whatnot

  • Point system is not good

    Would gladly pay a monthly sub. The way things are now is not great

  • Stupidest thing I’ve ever seen

    When I first saw that kodansha were releasing their own app with official translations I thought “ Oh cool they’re gonna do it like VIZ where we pay a monthly subscription to get access to all these chapters”. But no they had to do a point system where we would have to buy “points” in order to buy chapters to read. At that point it would be cheaper to just buy the volumes but for some of these titles they’re not even published in the west yet. Now VIZ has three different apps and with 3 different monthly services you can pay for, all together that comes out to about $8.99 for access to all three. I wouldn’t even be mad if kodansha charged like $10-15 a month, compared to marvel universe comic app at 19.99 a month I still think that’s a good deal because of all the content. This horrible gatcha system or model or whatever you wanna call it is just gonna give people more reason to read pirated content. I’m hoping soon that the developers see how much people don’t like this and change their business model soon because I for one really wanna read these stories and support the authors.
