“Orange was founded to help more officially licensed manga reach readers around the world, and expanding distribution has always been critical to that mission,” said Shoko Ugaki, CEO and founder of Orange Inc. “emaqi Premium contributes to a healthier manga ecosystem by creating more opportunities for officially licensed works to be discovered and supported by readers worldwide. This is an important next step in expanding access to those stories while connecting rights holders with new audiences. We are deeply grateful to the publishers participating in the launch for their trust and collaboration, and we look forward to continuing to grow the catalog over time so fans can enjoy an even broader range of manga from across the industry.”
