Omoi Announces Four New Manga Through Partnership with Red String Manga and Square Enix Manga

Omoi announced on July 4, 2026, that it has signed new partnerships with Red String Manga and Square Enix Manga and has licensed four new manga under these collaborations. The publisher aims for ambitious growth, particularly in the digital and print manga market.

The announced titles include Walking Home with You, Shonen Racket, and Natsume & Natsume: More Perfume. While the fourth title has not yet been revealed, Omoi is expected to provide detailed introductions of these series in the coming weeks. Walking Home with You blends everyday life and romance, while Shonen Racket offers a sports-themed story. Natsume & Natsume: More Perfume is a continuation of the previous series, with a narrative centered around scent and the senses.

These partnerships are part of Omoi's strategy to diversify its catalog. Red String Manga is known as a webcomic platform, while Square Enix Manga holds a strong position in the industry as the publisher of major series like Fullmetal Alchemist and Soul Eater. Omoi's licensing from these two different sources shows that it is targeting both popular and niche genres.

Omoi is a publishing house founded in 2021 by former Viz Media employees. It quickly made a name for itself with hit series such as My Dress-Up Darling and Komi Can’t Communicate. With these four new titles, the company plans to release over 20 series in multiple countries, including Turkey, by the end of 2026. Fans are particularly looking forward to the continuation of the Natsume & Natsume series.
