Viz Manga App for iPhone & iPod


VIZ Manga for iPhone & iPod Touch (it’s free, but you buy each title) this morning. Death Note, Naurto and Bleach are some of the ‘premiere’ titles, but there are quite a few other great ones.

The store is really easy-to-use and it has some pretty nice titles at launch and I like how you can get several volume one titles for free. The iPhone/iPod Touch screen real estate doesn’t really allow for the BEST manga-reading experience (it’s small), but for satisfying your need for manga-on-the-go, it does a good job.

Here are the titles available right now:

  • Absolute Boyfriend
  • Bakuman
  • Black Bird
  • BLEACH
  • Blue Exorcist
  • Captive Hearts
  • Claymore
  • D.Gray-Man
  • Death Note
  • DragonBall
  • DragonBall Z
  • Fairy Cube
  • Kekkaishi
  • MeruPuri
  • NARUTO
  • Natsume’s Book of Friends
  • Nura: Rise of the Yokai Clan
  • One Piece
  • Otomen
  • Oran High School Host Club
  • Rosario + Vampire
  • Rurouni Kenshin
  • Torkio
  • Vampire Knight
  • not simple

Here’s their App Store description:

Welcome to the VIZ Manga app! You now have the greatest manga from Japan at your fingertips, at long last in a convenient, downloadable format for the iPad, iPhone and iPod Touch! Your manga purchases will be accessible from all iOS devices and shared bookmarks provide an even more seamless reading experience.
