The launch lineup includes One Piece, Naruto, Bleach, Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba, Jujutsu Kaisen, Kingdom, Oshi no Ko, Spy x Family, Chainsaw Man, Nana, and Kimi ni Todoke: From Me to You, among others. More than 150 of the available titles are shojo manga. Shueisha confirmed to Anime News Network that AI translation was not used for the project. The initiative is part of the publisher's 100th anniversary celebration, and Manga Plus by Shueisha Editor-in-Chief Shuhei Hosono initiated the project.
