The importance of facilitating the visually impaired to appreciate works in museums is increasing today. We produced “Tactile Manga” which allows visitors to touch and appreciate manga works at museum exhibitions. In this work, we not only transformed the visual experience of reading a manga into a tactile experience, but also explored the possibility of easy and inexpensive production by using the technology of digital fabrication. In this paper, the characteristics of both the haptic media and the manga expression were highlighted.
