NEW YORK, NY—Digital manga subscription service is adding four manga series from MediBang! to its library, part of their monthly new series additions. The four titles — Maria x MariaSuper Food BowlThe Vampires Next Door, and Witch Sister — are available now (including select free chapters) on the Azuki website and iOS and Android apps. Synopses for all four series are below:

Maria x Maria by Kaoru Kawakata, distributed by MediBang: Legend has it that males in the Seryo household are bound to be luckless when it comes to women. Masaki Seryo, a 15-year-old high school student, is a testament to this. As he hopes to leave his nagging female-dominated family behind and moves to the dorms, he falls into an even more baffling situation involving the same thing he's attempted to escape—women.

Witch Sister by Natsuki Matsuzawa, distributed by MediBang: Witch power is an invisible and powerful force. Witch Sister is a tale of two siblings who inherited witches' blood—the older brother Kyoma, a rookie inspector without the ability to use magic, and Mikuni, the shut-in little sister who'd once gone to witchcraft school. Together they solve grotesque and eerie cases caused by witch magic.

Super Food Bowl by Shigeru Tsuchiyama, distributed by MediBang: To eat is to fight! There's only one thing Momotaro High desires—the glory of being Super Food Bowl champion! Back from a 15 years absence from the world of gourmands, Kutaro Moriyama began as a coach in the now-weakened Momotaro Gourmand Club. With endless appetite and fiercee hunger, Super Food Bowl brings you the taste of bold men bonding through delicious food!

The Vampires Next Door by Ryoko Takabatake, distributed by MediBang: What would you do if three Vampire sisters started living in your ordinary neighborhood? Ella, the beautiful and conservative eldest sister; Angelica, the air-headed and girly middle child; and Rinden, the quiet and cool youngest daughter.
