A Genre-Free Editorial Team for Bold Manga
Centered around manga, we curate works that transcend boundaries—spanning literature, film, theater, music, and everyday culture
—with a strong commitment to the craft of print publishing.
Expanding YOSUMI as a Manga Web Platform
YOSUMI is a bold new initiative by Sorajima, launched in May 2025 as a manga web platform.
Our editorial philosophy is simple: to curate exciting, genre-spanning manga—
and to make them easy and enjoyable to read.
On the YOSUMI platform, readers can access free one-shots and serialized works,
alongside a variety of content beyond manga itself.
We also maintain an open submission system, welcoming works regardless of experience, genre, or length—
anyone can bring their manga to YOSUMI.

Exploring Manga Across Culture
At YOSUMI, we go beyond editing manga—we also explore the cultural landscape of the future.
The platform features critical columns like YOSUMI Think,
reader and creator essays in Manga Notes,
and PICK UP CULTURE!, which introduces emerging cultural topics from our editorial perspective.
We also expand into real-world experiences—through stage adaptations, bookstore collaborations, and live reading events—
actively creating new touchpoints between manga and culture.
A New Approach to Print Publishing
While the print publishing industry faces challenges amid the growth of digital comics,
we believe print will continue to endure—and evolve in value.
That is why Sorajima is deliberately investing in print publishing today.
Works featured on YOSUMI are carefully selected for physical publication.
Through our unique approach, we aim to redefine print publishing for a new era.
