MangaNEXT is an inactive fan convention focused exclusively on Japanese manga that occurred every other year in New Jersey. It is the only manga convention in the United States.

The convention typically offers an artists alley, burlesque show, dealer's room, and swap meet.

MangaNEXT was located at the Crowne Plaza Meadowlands in Secaucus, New Jersey for 2007. In 2008 the convention moved to the Doubletree Somerset Hotel in Somerset, New Jersey for additional space, but suffered from some disorganization and poor communication. The convention in 2012 moved to the Sheraton Hotel in East Rutherford, New Jersey, which had no public transit access.
