Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Baiheverse at none against Tachimanga's shown. Baiheverse also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 76%) and rating (5.0 vs 4.8). Tachimanga's advantage is ratings volume (5.6K vs 3) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Tachimanga sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and Baiheverse sells 7 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
