WFS in cooperation with Houbunsha has released Manga Time KIRARA Comics in over 240 countries and regions via Facebook Instant Games on 28 September 2020. With Manga Time KIRARA Comics, you can read parts of popular titles compiled in the 4-panel “moe” manga magazine Manga Time KIRARA, such as Hidamari Sketch, K-ON!, and Is the Order a Rabbit? (Gochuumon wa Usagi Desu ka?), in both English and Japanese on Facebook.
The app aims to deliver sparkly, shimmery experiences to readers in Japan and the world – experiences such as the daily lives of kawaii girls, their hard work towards their goals, and stories of hopes, dreams, courage, and joy. This app is first to provide these 4-koma on Facebook Instant Games which primarily distributes games. WFS and Houbunsha have come together to create Manga Time KIRARA Comics to deliver high-quality content to fans all over the world via Facebook Instant Games, as a new endeavour in global distribution.
