Celebrating a Decade of Partnership
“Kodansha titles are a mainstay of the BookWalker catalog and much-loved by our customers. It’s been exciting to watch the global appetite for digital manga steadily grow, thanks in large part to the dedication of publishers like Kodansha. We’re looking forward to our partnership for decades to come.”
– Susan McCulloch, Director of BookWalker
“Kodansha’s digital manga business has grown exponentially over the years, and Bookwalker has been a big part of it. We joined the platform ten years ago, when they were a relatively fledgling effort, and it’s been great to see them undergo the same growth trajectory. This has been one of those ideal win-win partnerships, and we look forward to cultivating new manga fans together in the years to come.”
– Alvin Lu, President and CEO at Kodansha USA Publishing
