Manga Arabia enhances Arabic content, aiming to attract Arab families towards recreational reading with translated materials and creations inspired by acclaimed Japanese productions.
SRMG initiative opens the world of illustrated fiction from Japan to the region and provides free copies for visitors to Sharjah International Book Fair.
An expanded agreement includes X-Ventures' sequel, additional co-productions, and the translation of Manga Arabia's IPs into Malay and Chinese.
SRMG’s new headquarters is located in the fourth district at KAFD and will consist of 10 floors to accommodate around 1,200 employees.
The signing follows the group’s earlier partnerships with Japan’s publishing houses Shogakukan, Shueisha, and Kadokawa.
The partnership follows the recent announcement of the launch of Manga Arabia, aiming to target 180m Arabs.
The content licensing agreement establishes SRMG as the first-ever Arab entity to own copyrights to adapt and localise manga for Arab audiences.
Manga Arabia will produce original content inspired by the culture and values of the Arab region for both regional and global audiences.
