Crunchyroll Manga, the streaming giant's dedicated manga app launched in 2025, announced a massive lineup expansion with 24 new titles being added on May 18, 2026. The update brings a mix of all-time classics, beloved rom-coms, action juggernauts, and hidden gems to the platform's growing digital library.
The Full Lineup
The majority of the new titles come from Kodansha's extensive catalog, with one notable exception from Shueisha's Shonen Jump+. The complete list includes:
Action & Adventure: Attack on Titan, Attack on Titan: Before the Fall, Fire Force, The Seven Deadly Sins, Tokyo Revengers, Parasyte, BAKEMONOGATARI, The Fable, Dricam!! (Shonen Jump+)
Romance & Slice of Life: Your Lie in April, Say I Love You., Don't Toy with Me, Miss Nagatoro, Domestic Girlfriend, Kiss Him Not Me, My Boss's Kitten, Peach Girl, Tsuredure Children, Watari-kun's ****** Is About to Collapse, Vampire Dormitory
Sports & Music: Beck, Chihayafuru, Nodame Cantabile, DAYS
School Comedy: School Rumble
Standout additions include Dricam!!, an underrated Shonen Jump+ series about high school photography club members, and The Fable, the acclaimed crime-action comedy series by Katsuhisa Minamimura that recently received an anime adaptation.
Platform Growth
Crunchyroll Manga launched in 2025 as an iOS and Android app (US and Canada only), with a web version following shortly after. The subscription is available as an add-on to existing Crunchyroll tiers or included at no extra cost for Ultimate Fan subscribers. The service aims to localize more manga series for international readers, partnering with major publishers including Kodansha and Shueisha.
This May 2026 expansion significantly deepens the catalog, adding acclaimed titles across genres — from the tragic romance of Your Lie in April to the supernatural horror of Parasyte and the delinquent drama of Tokyo Revengers.
Community Reception
Reaction in the manga community has been broadly positive, with readers particularly excited about the addition of The Fable (finally accessible to a wider English audience) and Dricam!!, which has built a cult following on Jump+. The inclusion of rarer titles like Beck (complete music manga series) and Nodame Cantabile has also been well-received, as these series have been harder to find legally in digital format.
Looking Ahead
With major publishers increasingly embracing digital-first distribution, Crunchyroll Manga's aggressive expansion signals growing competition in the English digital manga market alongside Viz Media's Shonen Jump, K Manga, and Manga Plus. As the platform continues to add catalog depth, it positions itself as a serious contender in the space.
