Crunchyroll Manga Adds Over 20 Shueisha Titles Including Hinomaru Sumo and Blooming Love

Crunchyroll Manga added 22 new manga series from publisher Shueisha to its digital platform in April 2026, significantly expanding the catalog of the service that relaunched in October 2025.

A Diverse Batch of 22 Titles

The latest wave covers a wide range of genres and demographics. Among the headline additions are Hinomaru Sumo, the sports manga by Kawada that ran in Weekly Shonen Jump; Blooming Love, a romance series; Diamond in the Rough; and Gizmo Riser, a newer action title. The full list of 22 new series spans action, romance, horror, comedy, and fantasy:

New Chapters for Existing Series

Alongside the new arrivals, six series already on the platform received fresh chapter uploads. These include ATOM: The Beginning, Cosmic Censorship, Kamen Rider Kuuga, Outsiders, Somali and the Forest Spirit, and Working for God in a Godless World. The chapter updates signal that Crunchyroll is maintaining ongoing serialization support rather than simply dumping complete backlogs.

Building on the October 2025 Relaunch

Crunchyroll Manga relaunched on October 9, 2025, initially on iOS and Android with browser access following on October 15. The service is available in the United States and Canada as a premium add-on, though Ultimate Fan subscribers can access the manga library at no additional cost. Features include offline chapter downloads, light and dark reading modes, full-page spread support, and personalized reading lists with recommendations.

The Shueisha partnership is central to the platform's growth strategy. Shueisha, one of Japan's largest manga publishers and home to the Weekly Shonen Jump imprint, brings a deep well of titles that range from long-running classics like Hinomaru Sumo to newer serializations. This April batch represents the largest single-month expansion since the relaunch.

What This Means for Readers

The addition of 22 titles in a single update gives the relaunched service a meaningful content injection roughly six months after its debut. Readers in the US and Canada who already hold an Ultimate Fan subscription can dive into the new titles immediately, while other tier subscribers will need the manga add-on. Crunchyroll Manga does not currently operate in India, so fans in the region will need to look to other platforms for legal digital manga access. With Shueisha continuing to feed the pipeline, further catalog expansions are likely in the months ahead.
