Comico (platform)

(Redirected from Comico (NHN Japan))

Comico is a webtoon portal based in Japan that is part of NHN Japan Corporation. NHN Japan first launched its webtoon platform Comico in Japan in 2013.[1] It was then followed by a launch in Taiwan in 2014[citation needed] and then in Thailand and South Korea in 2016 followed by Indonesia (defunct[2] since September 30, 2019) and Spanish language (defunct since 2019) in 2017.[3][2] Comico launched its service in Vietnam in April 2020[4] and in July 2020 launched its English-language service under the name Pocket Comics.[5] Comico has also stated that it will relaunch its Spanish service with the "Pocket Comics" brand later in the future.[6] In 2017, Nielsen Media Research found it to be the second largest website for digital comics in Japan based on the number of users.[7] The Taiwanese version of "Comico" was rebranded to the "Pocket Comics" branding soon after the launch. On January 24, 2022, NHN Japan launched a French-language service for Pocket Comics.[8] That same year, a German-language service was launched.
