Hi everyone. As the title says, I’m looking for a method to download manga on smartphone and then read it with a proper offline reader (any suggestion is appreciated).
Example: I’ve been reading comics (downloading them on the smartphone and then reading them with “Perfect Viewer” app) for years and I would start to read manga also with a similar solution.
I prefer to download them on the smartphone (and don’t read it online) because I don’t have always a decent Internet connection, and when I can access to that I use that to download as many comics I can.
Thanks in advance for all your help
EDIT: Thanks for your help, I’ll try Mihon and Kotatsu
Look up mihon. Android only
Second Mihon. It’s an all-in-one downloader and reader, and supports reading offline.
I’m so confused because there’s like tachij2k, mihon, aniyomi, kotatsu etc… How tf do ik what one is “the best”
Most are forks of the OG tachiyomi that got copyright struck. So they’re capabilities are pretty similar, just slight UI changes. Just pick one and don’t worry about having the best one.
Aniyomi is for anime, not manga.
Not a pirate method, but a library card and the app Libby are great for this.
I’ve used Kotatsu. It’s pretty good for all kinds of comics (not just Japanese manga).
You can download chapters while on WiFi and read without using data.
I am still currently using Tachiyomi (Android only) bc it still works, but the dev dropped developing it bc of lawsuits. There are forks of it as well
