As a fellow anime fan, I would enjoy a means of reading manga on PS3, but as you mentioned, we’re not entirely sure how many people would read it. This applies to anime, as well -- most anime titles remain obscure in the States, but you have a small and dedicated fanbase for it. Shows like Galaxy Express 999 and Sailor Moon are exceptions to the rule; they’ve become much more universally recognized that (taking an example from your article) Bokurano, and you’d be hard-pressed to find that many people familiar with any anime beyond these.

Still, I would love to see this. If possible, popular older titles such as Rose of Versailles could be included, along with more recent material, such as Teekyu and WataMote. Jersquall’s mention of people requesting reading classes on Home would be great, as well, and your suggestion of having manga available could tie to that wonderfully. Manga’s very much a visual medium, where you can see the characters speak and interact.

Over the years we have heard of users wanting reading classes like school in Home. Others had thought language classes would be useful. A library. So many things and your article here reminded me of the things once asked for.
I watch The Walking Dead series on AMC but never read the comic, novels. Reading them in Home in a dark estate would be pretty awesome.

Nice write up, McJorneil.

I’m Jersquall. Call me Jers ;)
