Amazia Debuts Manga Bang Channel on YouTube

On October 4, 2021, Amazia Inc. Japan launched the Manga Bang Channel on YouTube. This is an official YouTube Channel hosting videos of original manga works found on the Manga BANG! App.

The Manga Bang Channel features “motion manga,” a new experimental way to enjoy Japanese manga translated into English. Motion manga includes background music and visual effects. The sound and motion aim to produce a more immersive experience than typical book reading.

In addition, the Manga Bang Channel allows the service to present text for each speech bubble in chronological order. Amazia hopes this visual direction will be convenient for new readers who are unfamiliar with traditional Japanese style reading, which often progresses from the right side of the panel to the left.

Titles currently available on Manga Bang Channel:
- Milimoss Saga - War Records of the Reincarnated Youngest Prince
- The Date of Marriage - If you can't have a fiancé let's get married
- Dungeon Battle Royale
- I Was Invited to the Otherworldly Country As a Warrior, But I Refused and Decided to Start As a Soldier
- Robustness
- Necromancer of White: The Road to the Spirit King

This is the third-ever English language service offered by Amazia since October 2020. Its first service was Tokyo Anime News, a website written in English dedicated to news about manga, anime, and other Japan-related stories. Amazia then followed up with its second free service, the Manga Flip app, which launched on March 30, 2021.

Amazia aims to make an environment for people from the US and other English-speaking countries to legally and habitually read officially licensed Japanese manga. In the future, the company will seek the possibility of monetizing its manga services through a paid subscription business model.
