Azuki Adds False Stars and En Chan's House from Glacier Bay Books, and Look Into My Eyes and The Town You Live In from Star Fruit Books

January 20, 2022

SAN FRANCISCO, CA — Digital manga subscription service Azuki is adding four new titles from indie manga publishers Glacier Bay Books and Star Fruit Books to their catalog, further expanding the range of unique independent comics available on the platform.

False Stars by Sayaka Mogi is a stand-alone short story set in a world divided into three tribes: Human, Beastkin, and Hunter. En-Chan's House is a series by Ayumu Arisaka that follows its title character as she time shifts to herself as a 1-year-old child, depicted with swirling surrealist art. Both are published by Glacier Bay Books.

Look Into My Eyes by Miyako Yoko is a one-shot that follows a pop idol as she grapples with the consequences of her group's breakup. The Town You Live In is a full-color collection of short stories by Uminoji. Both are published by Star Fruit Books.

En Chan's House will have select chapters available for free with advertisements. For just $4.99 per month users can sign up for a Premium account and read the entire catalog with no ads. A 30-day free trial and a discounted annual plan are also available. All titles are available worldwide (except Japan) in English.

Azuki is available on the web at www.Azuki.co, as well as in the iOS App Store and Google Play Store. Readers can stay up to date on the latest announcements by following Azuki at twitter.com/ReadAzuki, facebook.com/ReadAzuki, and instagram.com/readazuki.
