Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Book publishing giant Penguin Random House is moving aggressively to shore up its growing manga business with a new agreement with iconic manga publisher TOKYOPOP. The deal will make Penguin Random House one of the largest distributors of manga content in the United States, once more signaling how mainstream many has become to American culture.
Moreover, this is a multiyear agreement where PRHPS will offer TOKYOPOP content for purchase and distribution across all of its sales channels around the globe, including its physical bookstores, online retailers, digital platforms, and any other avenues where it officially sells its books. The agreement is set to commence on January 1, 2025.
