I have been reading daily on this app for a little over two months. I have put money into it just to make sure I have a stock of points, for when I start needing to pay for chapters. I just now spent some of those points!I think this app is a great app for Manga, and it’s really disappointing seeing it pushed way down the App Store list. (The rating bomb for K manga, just goes to show Americans cannot understand Japanese pricing models.)The only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars is because of the ad integration. You don’t see them when reading but there are just some weird ways to get points when there shouldn’t be, because points are so cheap. Once you get used to the pay system, you’ll have no problem, and you will stay for the great titles!

There are many great series available. Unfortunately, the points system is the stupidest thing I have ever encountered. While other manga apps have cheap subscriptions for a few dollars that let you read a lot, to read a single manga series on this you have to shell out potentially hundreds of dollars depending on how long it is because they charge per chapter. The amount of free points you can get each day is usually not even enough to read a single chapter. The other method of getting points is to grind on mobile games they’re partnered with. It would probably take months of playing for me to fully unlock the manga I want to read. So unless you have a hundred dollars to burn, binge reading is out of the question. It’s a shame because I would love to support my favorite manga. I would pay for a subscription in an instant. But I cannot spend months trying to grind out these stupid points. PLEASE change the app. Let me reiterate one more time, this app is stupid, infuriating, and an insult to anyone who wants to read manga.

I would like to give this app a better review. One hand, they have picked up and translated a lot of series no one else will license in English. On the other hand, the point system is horrible. They have a way to earn free points by playing games in other apps, but it is inconsistent as to whether it works or not. I wasted hours playing a stupid game to earn points only to be told I broke some terms of service and won’t be given the points (I didn’t break any rules). I gave up earning coins on places like WEBTOONS because I was running into similar issues. I WEBTOONS, I was able to argue my case and received the coins in the end after arguing with the help ticket a bit, but not on this app. TapJoy seems to run most of the games and their customer service makes me lividly angry. It’s a scam as far as I’m concerned. Please make KManga a subscription, and I’d be happy to pay a monthly fee rather than coin by coin.

THIS POINT SYSTEM IS SO TRASH ITS NOT EVEN FUNNY PLEASE FIX UR APP KODANSHA. WHY NOT JUST ADD A SUBSCRIPTION U ASK? ITS BECAUSE THEY ARE STUPID The point system in this app is honestly terrible. Instead of letting people simply read manga, it forces users to grind points just to unlock chapters. Nobody downloads a manga app because they want to farm points all day. People download it because they want to read manga. The system makes the entire experience frustrating and annoying instead of simple and enjoyable.The worst part is that you have to play random mobile games just to get enough points to read. This makes the app feel more like a scam ad platform than a manga reader. I should not have to download other apps and waste my time playing trash mobile games just to read a few chapters of manga.A subscription would make way more sense. Almost every other manga platform already understands this. Just add a monthly subscription and let people read normally. That would be simple, fair, and actually respect the user’s time. The current point system just pushes people away from the app.Right now the app feels like it cares more about forcing people to interact with ads and other games than actually letting people enjoy manga. The manga selection might be good, but the point system completely ruins the experience.Please remove this point system and just add a normal subscription option. It would make the app much better and people would actually want to use it.
