Manga Home (まんがホーム, Manga Hōmu) is a Japanese monthly seinen manga magazine published by Hōbunsha since December 1987. The magazine is released monthly on the 2nd. Manga Home is printed as B5 size. The magazine is known for having inspirational and family-themed messages on the edges of the pages, and many of the manga focus on husbands and wives, families, and related topics.

During the last several years, while sister magazine Manga Time Kirara has become the most popular of the Manga Time magazine family, Manga Home (along with Manga Time) has retained a fairly conservative style and focus which has allowed it to remain popular.

From December 1988 through July 1997, the magazine ran a "New Female Yonkoma Manga Artist" series which introduced a number of new artists such as Megumi Nanzawa, Chinatsu Tomobiki, Nobara Nonaka, Niniko Nitta, Moeko Narita, Yukari Tominaga, Aoi Morimura, Maya Koikeda, and Ryōji Sekine.
