Shueisha's Manga Plus App Allows Readers to Read Indonesian Chapters of Manga Once

Shueisha announced on Monday that its MANGA Plus app will allow users to read all the Indonesian chapters of 10 of its simul-release manga series for free for one year beginning this month. The campaign is named "First Read Free." Users will be available to read each chapter in a series once. The campaign is not available on the service's website, and is only available inside the app version of the service.

MANGA Plus previously held a similar campaign in English in 2022.

MANGA Plus is serializing more than 100 titles, and the service is available in English, Spanish, Thai, Indonesian, Brazilian Portuguese, Russian, French, Vietnamese, and German. The service is available worldwide except in Japan, China, and South Korea.

Shueisha launched the online manga site and app in January 2019. The service previously allowed readers to read only the first three chapters and the latest three chapters of its currently serialized manga for free. Shueisha launched the service in Indonesia in February 2021.
