Shueisha Opens a Million Free Manga Pages in 100-Plus Languages for Its 100th Birthday

Shueisha launched MANGA MILLION on August 6, 2026 — a global digital service that puts roughly 400 manga titles, totalling one million pages, in front of readers worldwide at no cost and with no registration required. The project commemorates the Japanese publisher's 100th anniversary and is scheduled to run through the end of December 2027. Billboard
The catalogue spans the publisher's most widely recognised series. ONE PIECE, NARUTO, BLEACH, Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba, Jujutsu Kaisen, Kingdom, OSHI NO KO, SPYxFAMILY and Chainsaw Man are all included. More than 150 shojo and josei titles — manga aimed respectively at teenage girls and adult women — round out the lineup, among them NANA and Kimi ni Todoke: From Me to You. Billboard
Translations cover more than 100 languages, including Chinese, Hindi, Spanish, French, Arabic and Korean. All translation work is handled by professional translators, and roughly 300 titles in the collection are receiving their first-ever English-language versions. ONE PIECE alone has been translated into 107 languages for the project. Billboard
Starting in mid-August, MANGA MILLION will add near-simulcast distribution for about 30 ongoing series, publishing new chapters roughly two to three weeks after their Japanese release. ONE PIECE is set to receive these near-simulcast chapters in 96 languages. Billboard
For readers inside Japan, availability is narrower. Japanese users can access ONE PIECE volumes 1–12 — the East Blue arc — in all 107 languages, along with English-language interview features with the author and publishers. The broader free catalogue is aimed at international audiences. Billboard
The project lives at mangamillion.shueisha.co.jp, where a searchable manga list lets visitors filter titles by language, genre and keyword. Shueisha is also maintaining a 100th-anniversary guide page on its corporate site, noting that additional commemorative projects may be added.
For fans, the draw is straightforward: a vast, professionally translated library, free to read, with no account to set up. For series that have never had official English editions, the project creates first access — and for ongoing titles, the near-simulcast schedule narrows the gap between Japanese publication and global readership to a matter of weeks.
