New Web Manga Label MANGABU! Launches With 15 Series
A new web manga label called MANGABU! launched on August 17, 2026, operated by FaMH Entertainment. The label is headed by Masahiko Ibaraki, former editor-in-chief of Weekly Shonen Jump and the first editor-in-chief of Jump Square, and Hideki Egami, former editor-in-chief of Monthly IKKI. The label's catchphrase is "After school isn't over yet," and it aims to publish a wide range of genres without restrictions. At launch, 15 series began serialization simultaneously, including "Bakudanhan no Musume," a comic adaptation of Aki Kajiwara's nonfiction novel by Matsu Karasume; "Times Tetepamu" by Mai Inoue; "Kome to Hana to, Awai to." by Daisuke Higuchi; and "IRUKA" by Kizu. The lineup spans suspense, romance, human drama, and comedy. The label positions itself as a place where creators, readers, and editors can enjoy manga like a club activity. FaMH Entertainment was established in May 2025 as a subsidiary of Fam Group, with Hiroyuki Kondo of Mash Group serving as chairman.
