Square Enix has announced that its Manga UP! app has reached 5 million downloads since it released on iOS and Android in 2022. The app features over 350 manga from Square Enix.
In a statement, the team behind the Manga UP! app said the following:
Thanks to your support of Manga UP!, the app has now been downloaded more than five million times.
We launched Manga UP! in 2022 with the goal of making our popular and buzz-worthy manga titles available globally with as little lag as possible following their Japan releases.

Some of the most popular manga on Manga UP! include Black Butler, The Apothecary Diaries, and My Dress Up Darling, among others. My Dress Up Darling is available to stream on Crunchyroll, which describes the series as follows:
Wakana Gojo is a high school boy who aspires to become a kashirashi — a master craftsman who creates traditional Japanese Hina dolls. Although he’s enthusiastic about the craft, he’s unaware of the latest trends and struggles to fit in with his class. The popular kids — especially one girl, Marin Kitagawa — seem to live in a completely different world.
That all changes one day when she shares an unexpected secret with him, and their completely different worlds collide.
