Additional Details

In addition, the app will be the fastest source for English versions of popular ongoing series such as The Case Study of Vanitas, GOBLIN SLAYER, and FINAL FANTASY LOST STRANGER, thanks to simultaneous releases with Japanese installments. The app will also include already completed manga that have been worldwide hits such as Fullmetal Alchemist, Soul Eater, and PandoraHearts.
