OSAKA, Japan, Dec. 14, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- NTT Solmare Corp announced its plans to launch MangaPlaza, a digital manga store offering U.S. manga fans access to the largest digital contents library from a broad range of Japanese publishers including major ones such as Kodansha and original titles without previous English releases. MangaPlaza's storefront offers an extensive list of titles covering a variety of genres such as action-adventure, romance, comedy, drama, sci-fi/fantasy, and LGBTQA+.

Users are offered the ability to access their favorite titles at their desired pace of reading through MangaPlaza's new service.

The MangaPlaza trial page will launch a pre-registration campaign starting Monday, January 24, 2022 where fans can initially access up to 72 hit manga titles (236 content) for free.
