The right binding depends on your page count, budget, and how you want the book to be read. These are the main options:
![]() | ![]() | ![]() |
| Perfect binding | Hardcover Binding | Hardcover Binding |
| The most popular choice for manga. Interior pages are glued at the spine into a wraparound cover, similar to a standard paperback. Perfect for serialized stories, collections, or one-shots. | Interior pages are grouped into sewn signatures and cased into a hard cover. A great choice for collector’s editions or premium campaigns. | Folded sheets are nested and stapled through the spine. This style is cost-effective and suited for short works—ideal for zines or booklets up to 64 pages. |
Saddle stitch and perfect binding are the most common options for manga, providing both flexibility and a professional finish. Hardcovers cost more but add value and durability. We’ll guide you through the trade-offs depending on your print run, length, and budget.
