Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Comics AI at 4.5 against Finger Manga's 3.7. Comics AI also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 3 weeks). Finger Manga's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 8) and review sentiment (60% vs 43%). On price, ratings volume, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
