Mangaka is an agentic studio inside Higgsfield, introduced on November 3, 2026. It turns a one-line idea, a finished script, or an image into a manga, comic, or vertical webtoon: it plans the plot, creates the cast, and draws the chapters in order.
You bring the story. Mangaka handles the drawing board.
