Kahon is an Android manga reader based on Mihon, designed to provide greater flexibility in managing and reading manga collections. It retains Mihon's library management, source extension system, and customizable reading experience. The application removes extension-specific rate limits and increases the maximum number of concurrent downloads. Users can modify manga metadata and save search terms and filters for repeated searches. Its extension management system trusts installed extensions by default and supports silent uninstallation through Shizuku. Library updates can run without caching to retrieve fresh information. Reading enhancements include automatic scrolling, pinch-to-zoom for manga covers, and automatically hiding app bars. Kahon is distributed through GitHub and F-Droid.
