Tokyopop is an active manga and manhwa licensor that has expanded its English-language catalog with multiple 2027 releases announced across Anime Expo 2026 and Anime NYC 2026.
Tokyopop's 2026 convention season shows a steady expansion of its English-language catalog. At Anime Expo in July, the company announced five manga licenses, including a physical omnibus of the crossdressing rom-com How I Attended an All Guy's Mixer and a Hololive comic, alongside romance, fantasy, and comedy titles.
Six weeks later, at Anime NYC in August, Tokyopop announced a nine-title licensing lineup that includes seven manga and two manhwa. The manga slate spans horror, fantasy, and BL romance, mixing original works with adaptations. Notable titles include Garagarapon, about government officials resolving conflicts between the real world and imagined ones, and And Then, She Became Mina., about a girl who receives the heart of a mass murderer. The two manhwa, Lily of the Valley by Rangrari and Magic Soup by Kimpeacock and Tropicalarmpit, are both scheduled for 2027 release, and their English versions are already available on Tapas and Tappytoon.
All nine titles from the Anime NYC announcement are set for 2027. The combined slate shows Tokyopop drawing from digital-first series and original works, with an emphasis on genre variety and physical omnibus formats.
