Pick a style, a page size and a reading direction, and the panel offers six layouts. New batch gives six more, Mutate makes six variations of one you like, and a seed brings a batch back. Select footage in the Project panel, click Create page comp, and each clip goes into a panel in reading order as a masked precomp, with the frame lines on a shape layer and a control null for line width and paper color.

A finished page can be re-cut. Choose a layout with the same panel count, click Apply layout to selected page, and the masks and frame lines change while the footage is refitted to the new panels. Footage you moved or scaled yourself is left alone. Add panel reveal animates the panels in reading order, and Create camera tour makes a 16:9 comp that starts on the whole page, visits each panel and returns.

The four styles are Calm, Standard, Action and Splash, and reading order runs right to left or left to right. Page formats cover B5 and A5 manga pages, Social 4:5, Square, 9:16 and 16:9, and a layout can be saved as SVG.

Manga Koma is Windows only and needs After Effects 2026 or later. It's listed at $24.99, with a launch price of $18.99 until November 14, 2026. The free trial is limited to pages of up to 6 panels and a camera tour of the first 3.
