Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Webtoon's Japanese sister platform, Line Manga, has just become the highest-grossing platform of the month in Japan, and its success may be a sign that manhwa is indeed surpassing manga. While Piccoma has been dominating the international market for quite some time, Line Manga has been steadily gaining traction in Japan, and its latest milestone proves exactly which manhwa are gaining popularity over manga in Japan.
While Japanese publishers like Shueisha have tried to capitalize on the webtoon mania through initiatives such as JumpToon, manhwa platforms like Piccoma, Webtoon, and Line Manga are making the most of their head start and continue to grow in popularity. Webtoon has already established a firm hold in the West and Naver's other subsidiary, Line Manga, may seriously compete with Kakao's Piccoma in Japan as well.
Line Manga's Success Reveals the Most Popular Manhwa in Japan Only The Remarried Empress is Successful Both in and Outside Japan Line Manga largely owns its latest success to a host of wildly popular titles like The Remarried Empress, Teenage Mercenary, The Dragon King's Bride, A Man's Man, and Saviour of Divine Blood, each of which generate well over 100 million yen a month in terms of sales in Japan.
