I’m a subscriber to the MANGA Plus by Shueisha app on Android’s Google Play Store. For those who don’t know, this is Shueisha’s official channel (the Japanese publisher behind Shonen Jump) for reading their manga legally, with chapters releasing weekly nearly the same day they’re published in Japan. Two dollars a month gets you the entire catalog with an official English translation.

The problem is that MANGA Plus has no official website for reading. The subscription is locked to Android. There’s an iOS version too, but no web. A tablet helps, but nothing beats the comfort of a big, static screen when you want to read a whole One Piece arc in one go.
