Detailed Review

Crunchyroll Manga brings the streaming service's approach to manga distribution, offering a dedicated mobile platform for reading licensed content. The app positions itself as an official source for translated manga, competing in a crowded space of digital comics readers while leveraging Crunchyroll's existing relationships with Japanese publishers. The core functionality centers around a clean reading interface with standard manga navigation including left-to-right or original Japanese right-to-left reading options. Users can bookmark series for quick access, create reading lists, and download chapters for offline consumption. The library organization includes categories by genre, popularity, and recently added titles, though some navigation elements feel less intuitive than competing apps. The reading experience itself is generally smooth with clear image rendering and adequate zoom controls. In practical use, the app serves well for casual reading sessions and keeping up with ongoing series. The download feature proves particularly useful for commuting or travel situations where internet access may be limited. However, some performance inconsistencies have been noted, with occasional loading delays between chapters and the interface sometimes feeling less responsive during peak usage times. The app maintains synchronization across devices when users log into their Crunchyroll accounts. User feedback consistently highlights the quality of available content while expressing desire for expanded library options. Reviews indicate appreciation for the official translations and simultaneous releases with Japanese publications for certain series. Multiple users specifically request additional popular titles like Tokyo Ghoul and more frequent updates for ongoing romance and slice-of-life series. Technical issues appear intermittently, with some users reporting login problems requiring multiple attempts or cache clearing, though these typically resolve with app updates. The overall assessment finds Crunchyroll Manga to be a competent reader with a growing catalog that appeals to existing Crunchyroll subscribers. The strengths include reliable official translations and a functional reading experience, while limitations center around library depth compared to more established competitors. The app shows promise for manga enthusiasts invested in Crunchyroll's ecosystem but may leave power readers wanting more comprehensive title availability.

As promised as soon as the app was properly working I have changed my review score, I will leave the original below though for a warning soon as I can actually log in to use the service, I'll improve the rating right now it just circles the drain when I hit login. if I close the app, I just get an error code and a try again option that repeats the error. I wish I could give negative stars.

I was skeptical at first, but so far, I've enjoyed how well it works. The offline part is especially helpful, considering a lot of the time, I don't have service to read. I can just download what I wanna read and then read it offline later.

I've downloaded and redownloaded this app multiple times but it won't let me login. I keep getting error code 14001. I've restarted my phone multiple times and cleared the cache multiple times. I just want this app to work. Edit: app finally works, I can login now and save my manga to read. I'm extremely happy ๐Ÿ˜Š
