Download and read manga on smartphone (lemmy.ml)

Hi everyone. As the title says, I'm looking for a method to download manga on smartphone and then read it with a proper offline reader (any suggestion is appreciated).

Example: I've been reading comics (downloading them on the smartphone and then reading them with "Perfect Viewer" app) for years and I would start to read manga also with a similar solution.

I prefer to download them on the smartphone (and don't read it online) because I don't have always a decent Internet connection, and when I can access to that I use that to download as many comics I can.

Thanks in advance for all your help

EDIT: Thanks for your help, I'll try Mihon and Kotatsu

I've never used these, but I've come across them while scrolling through F-Droid and they seem to fit this use case:

Kotatsu
Kinoko

+1 for kotatsu, it's a fork of tachiomi.

I've used Kotatsu. It's pretty good for all kinds of comics (not just Japanese manga).

You can download chapters while on WiFi and read without using data.

+1 for Kotatsu. It's a bit easy on the NSFW offerings, so, be careful with that in case this is important to the OP.
