Comment on [News] Crunchyroll to Launch New Manga App Later This Year

I cannot for the life of me imagine this launching with any significant amount of content. Pretty much all the good stuff is already licensed to English publishers and getting a license for digital redistribution under a subscription model is not likely to look like a very good deal to most of them.
I still hope this turns out decent because more legal options are always appreciated but I fear they might just try to Sony-monopoly their way into a successful platform here.

There are definitely manga out there that have digital subscriptions available in Japanese but not English. Skip and Loafer comes to mind, as well as Witch Hat Atelier.
