What is Vertical Scrolling Manga?
Vertical Scrolling Manga or Webtoon are becoming mainstream in the world.
Even in Japan, Vertical Scrolling Manga draws attention as a new manga trend.
While you need to read right to the left in the standard manga format, you can just scroll to read without getting lost within the frames in Vertical Scrolling Manga. Compared to viewing ordinary manga on a smartphone, Vertical Scrolling Manga is outstandingly easy to read with a suitable arrangement for mobile devices.
In addition, Vertical Scrolling Manga is also easy to translate into multiple languages, making this manga format suitable for inbound tourism and information distribution overseas.
A New Form of Manga that Fits Modern Times!
01
Perfect for reading on smartphones
The greatest advantage is that the manga format is suitable for reading on a smartphone. It can be scrolled easily with one hand, and its fixed width on the smartphone screen makes it easier to guide the reader’s gaze than conventional manga, so it is specially designed to be read in a short period of time, during train travel or a layover.
02
Attracts more readers
The easy scrolling by swiping allows users to read manga in a stress-free, flowing manner. The ease of reading the manga makes it easy for people from all walks of life to easily come into contact with the content, greatly increasing the likelihood of trending on social media! This can also be expected to have the effect of attracting more customers.
03
Supports inbound readers
As the books are opened to the left, unlike in Japan, when translating Japanese manga, the manuscript needs to be reversed for printing, which requires more time and funds. However, people all over the world can read Vertical Scrolling Manga without any discomfort. The only thing left to do is that translate the content to the target language.
What is Webtoon?
WEBTOON is a vertically scrolling manga format that spread from South Korea. It is often used as a generic term for vertically scrolling manga in Japan, but it has an aspect similar to a trademark.
Piccoma calls it “SMARTOON” and Jump calls it “JUMP TOON”. Various distribution sites have their own names for this vertical scrolling manga format.
