Cheap option for reading manga online

Hello guys, I was looking for a good tablet with screen above 7", mainly for reading manga.
I found used Kobo Forma for ~110$, I was considering buying it... but I found out that there's no way to read manga scans online (I read released chapters every week). Isn't there apps like Tachiyomi for Kobo Forma?
What are the best tablets around this price tag that could do that?

I'd suggest if you have a tablet, I'd keep using that, colours are much more vibrant.

LCD screen are very tiring for my eyes... I was looking for epaper display device because its feel more comfortable
Also, mangas are black & white, I don't mind vibrant colors

For example, there's UltimateMangaReader for Kobo devices. This app look perfect for me, however it's english websites only (I read in french)

Look into downloading comics and converting them into a format that's suitable for your reader. It takes some learning, but it becomes easy with some practice, and you won't go back to reading online after it.
If you're still only keen on reading on the web, you could look into android readers like the ones from Boox. I'm not familiar with the app you're talking about, but you can look online if it's working on android devices.
